Tom Huntington is back on the show to talk about his book Searching For George Gordon Meade. Naturally, we meander off-topic for a bit, but it's all relevant stuff. Don't forget to check out Tom's blog too! Here's the books' description: "While researching Searching for George Gordon Meade: The Forgotten Victor of Gettysburg, author Tom Huntington visited a severed leg, a buried arm, and a horse's head. He also hiked across Civil War battlefields, recited the names of fallen soldiers at a candlelit ceremony at Gettysburg, and drank a champagne toast in a Philadelphia cemetery on New Year's Eve. It was all part of his quest to learn more about the man who commanded the victorious Union army at the Civil War's Battle of Gettysburg, yet has been unfairly overlooked by history in the years since. Although in command of the Army of the Potomac for a mere three days before the battle, Major General George Gordon Meade managed to defeat Robert E. Lee and the Army of Northern Virginia during three days of vicious fighting. The cantankerous general remained in command of the army for the rest of the war even as he watched his reputation decline. "I suppose after awhile it will be discovered I was not at Gettysburg at all," he griped in a letter to his wife. Searching for George Gordon Meade is not your typical Civil War biography. While Huntington does tell the story of Meade's life, he also provides first-person accounts of his visits to the battlefields where Meade fought and museums that cover the Civil War. He includes his conversations with experts, enthusiasts, curators, park rangers and even a Meade impersonator to get their insights. The result is a compelling mash-up of history, biography, travel and journalism that touches both past and present." Studying for the guide exam and you're not yet a Patron? Hoofah!

Lord Gordon Byron bol celebritou už počas svojho života. Bol chodiacim predstaviteľom romantickej doby. Škandály a rôzne pletky sa za ním tiahli podobne ako neskôr za Oscarom Wildeom. Či už išlo o ženy alebo mužov, rozdiely nerobil. Čo sa týka jeho vzťahových eskapád, bisexualita bola jeho najmenším problémom. Udržiaval totiž intímne vzťahy so svojou nevlastnou sestrou, ktorá bola v tom čase navyše vydatá za plukovníka. Popritom flirtoval s nejakou lady. Dnes si povieme niečo o jeho živote a diele Putovanie Childa Harolda. Tento podcast ti prináša online magazín Hashtag.sk Viac info: https://www.schooltag.sk/ https://www.instagram.com/schooltag.sk/

Zwei Gedichte von der Insel. Britische Lyrik aus dem 19. Jahrhundert. Es geht um Wahrhaftigkeit und die Achtung vor dem Leben. Es geht um Leben, das sein Ziel und Zweck verfehlt. Der britisch-irische Dichter Gerard Manley Hopkins zittert fast über das Staunen, welch tiefes Sein sich in Eisvogel, Libelle und Kieselstein (!) zeigen. Lord Byron hält einer Gesellschaft dagegen gnadenlos den Spiegel vor, weil sie in Oberflächlichkeit das Wesentlich verpasst. Grandios. Dazu Psalmworte und ein Vers aus einem Petrusbrief. Texte, die helfen, den Kompass wiederzufinden, in finsteren Tagen. Was für die Seele...

Without a car, without childcare, without a grocery store, a pharmacy, or a place to get blood work done, how does a person with diabetes in rural Saskatchewan keep their disease in check? Those are the questions Dr. Stu Skinner and his Wellness Wheel team members face each day, as they treat Cree and Saulteaux patients on the Day Star, George Gordon, Kawacatoose and Muskowekwan First Nations in south-eastern Saskatchewan. "We see a lot of patients with diabetic foot infections," said Skinner, a University of Saskatchewan-trained physician who specializes in infectious diseases and internal medicine. Some of his patients typically walk 5 km or more in a day. Some don't realize their feet are injured until it's too late -- when gangrene appears. In this episode, he describes the complications of uncontrolled diabetes, which can lead to heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure, vision loss, and amputations. Facing tough financial choices, discrimination and long travel times, he said a number of his patients won't seek health care until it's too late. "I always joke that we need to go back to the old doctor model with the black bag where you go to people's houses and you treat them there because that's what works," Skinner said. To build trust and to help patients better control their diabetes, Skinner's team will spend the next year recruiting ‘peer champions' in the area who also have diabetes — people who better understand what day-to-day life as a diabetic is like. “People who have that lived experience have a lot to contribute and really are key,” said Susanne Nikolai, nurse lead and Wellness Wheel's clinical coordinator. Nikolai said working with Skinner and his team has been “absolutely the best nursing that I've done in my almost 30 years as a registered nurse." Earlier this year, the Saskatchewan Health Research Foundation approved a $7,500 grant for 'Culturally Responsive “Diabetes 101” Training and Knowledge Mobilization Among Indigenous Peers Living with Diabetes in Regina Urban Hub and Indigenous Communities'. Skinner plans to use the money to build trust with his patients, to connect them with diabetic peers in their community, and to find out what's stopping them from getting the care they need. "Many of our patients don't have transportation or they need childcare," said Skinner. "If I, as a physician, mail out a letter for an appointment to someone, but they can only check their mailbox maybe once every three to four months, how are they ever going to know about the appointments, even if they could make it there?" Hear why this matters so deeply to Skinner, Nikolai and the Wellness Wheel team in this episode.

On the first installment of BnB's Closer Look series, Avery and Codie discuss Kent Masterson Brown's new book Meade at Gettysburg: A Study in Command, and then offer their own evaluations of Union General George Gordon Meade's performance at the Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863. Not only was the battle Meade's first time commanding the Army of the Potomac, but he also took command just two days before the bloodiest battle of the American Civil War. Avery & Codie discuss Meade's highlights throughout the battle while they take on the old romanticized narrative of the campaign and how Meade was depicted. We hope you enjoy this new format because we plan on more "Closer Looks" to come. Enjoy!

Today’s episode is the third of five where we will be presenting F. Scott Fitzgerald’s immortal The Great Gatsby. This piece is a little edgier than the stuff we usually present. The themes deal largely with racism, and socio-economic elitism. There’s also some rougher language, just so you have a heads up. And now, The Great Gatsby, part 3 of 5, by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

A horrifying story from Weird Tales, the supreme shudder pulp, about a mysterious personality who claimed he was a descendent of Lord Byron – and the hideous doom that threatened all those around him! Gilbert Connatt, former film star, now dead broke, would give his life for a good role. And that may be just what he has done when he signs to be the lead in a newly discovered play by George Gordon, Lord Byron. As an added inducement, Gilbert finds he will be playing opposite his former flame, Sigrid Holgar, who has become a megastar since they broke off their headline-making Hollywood romance. The play is to be premiered at a summer theater, deep in the Berkshires, far from the maddening crowds. Not long after the cast's arrival there, Sigrid and her manager are attacked by menacing, half-shaped entities in the dark, and barely escape with their lives and sanity. Then, Gilbert accidentally stabs Varduk with a sword—but no blood is drawn and the producer is apparently unharmed. Things become stranger still, when Judge Keith Pursuivant, an eminent authority on the occult, who has been invited by Varduk to authenticate the handwritten manuscript of the play, is stumped when he realizes it is the great poet's work—even though the paper is less than ten years old. As Judge Pursuivant and Gilbert are discussing these unearthly events, Varduk's valet warns them not to challenge his master who, he says, is a man of tremendous and uncanny powers. Later that night, things become more terrifying for Gilbert and Sigrid, finding the flame of their former love has not been entirely extinguished, discover everyone's life is threatened by terrifying forces from beyond… Another dark masterpiece from Manly Wade Wellman, World Fantasy Award Lifetime Achievement and Hugo Award winner. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Date: March 10, 2015 Speaker: Tom Huntington Topic: My Search for George Gordon Meade - Chicago Civil War Round Table Monthly Meeting
Two comedians in Brooklyn encounter the same ghost in Windsor Terrace, and one has photographic evidence. Plus, other stories from Veronica Garza. Check out the photos on @EmilyMcWinter on IG and Twitter.
Dr. George Gordon, Emeritus Minister of Congregational Care, Country Club Christian Church, leads this discussion of self-observation, a process that aids us in detecting our deeper motivations for our actions, a prelude to serving others. Service without awareness frequently results in as much damage as good. In the spirit of Jesus who both retreated and acted, we will think about what that means for our lives.Music: "Scott Buckley - Freedom" is under a Creative Commons license (CC BY 3.0) creativecommons.org/licenses/...Music promoted by BreakingCopyright: youtu.be/kNT52_UTsis
