Your whole life is governed by spin. The rotation of our planet tells you when to wake up, and Earth's orbit around the Sun is the reason why some of us dig out a jumper for half the year and a t-shirt for the rest. But what if that all changed? That's exactly what 8-year-old Geronimo in Ecuador wants to know. He and his dad, Fabian, have got themselves dizzy trying to figure out what would happen if the Earth stopped spinning, or better yet, started spinning in the opposite direction. Would everyone fly off into space? Would school be at night? Eager for answers, they decided to ask CrowdScience. Presenter Anand Jagatia embarks on an interstellar journey, blasting off with the celestial origins of spin itself. Astronomer Amy Bonsor from the University of Cambridge in the UK explains how Earth's rotation began, with collapsing clouds of gas, planetary pile-ups and crushing gravitational force. At Keele Observatory, things get apocalyptic. Anand meets astronomer Jacco van Loon, who explains what would happen if Geronimo somehow waved a magic wand and brought Earth's rotation to a halt. With months of unbroken daylight or darkness, devastating storms and even the loss of the Earth's magnetic shield, it's like the script of a disaster movie. Wave that magic wand again and we imagine a world where the Earth not only stops... but starts spinning the other way. Meteorologist Joao Basso from the University of Leipzig in Germany walks us through a mind-bending 2018 study that tells us the surprising things that would happen to the global climate.

Ever feel like you're doing all the right things—but still not getting anywhere? Truth is, most studio owners stay stuck not because they're lazy… but because they're accidentally running on broke behaviours and patterns that sabotage growth.

Propos recueillis par Benoit Basirico “Ange”, à l'affiche le 25 juin 2025, de Tony Gatlif Musiques originales composées par Delphine Mantoulet, Tony Gatlif, Arthur H, Fiona Monbet Entretien à lire : https://www.cinezik.org/infos/affinfo.php?titre0=20250625133326 La compositrice Delphine Mantoulet retrouve le réalisateur Tony Gatlif sur ANGE (Au cinéma le 25 juin 2025), après "Exils" (2004), "TranSylvania" (2006), "Liberté" (2010), "Indignados" (2012), "Geronimo" (2014) et "Tom Medina" (2021), pour la musique de ce road-movie, à laquelle contribuent également le cinéaste lui-même, le chanteur Arthur H et la violoniste Fiona Monbet. Le film suit Ange (Arthur H, qui ne chante pas dans le film), un musicologue sans attache qui ressent le besoin vital de retrouver et faire la paix avec son vieil ami Marco (Mathieu Amalric). Solea (Suzanne Aubert), la fille révoltée de son ancien amour, s'invite dans ce voyage qui les mènera sur le chemin de la joie. La partition est viscérale, arrivant par bouffées d'émotion comme des fragments qui percutent le récit, dans une circulation entre le IN et le OFF (lorsqu'un chant du bord de route devient un soutien à l'émotion), comme la représentation onirique du monde intérieur du personnage. Elle mêle flamenco, jazz, sonorités roms et orientales, incluant un chant de révolte italien ("La Lega"). Le réalisateur a cherché à capter les frottements des instruments, avec des percussions corporelles jouées par le personnage principal, que l'on voit aussi mimer un piano en tapotant dans l'air (instrument peu présent dans le cinéma de Gatlif, qui privilégie les objets musicaux nomades), des palmas (claquements de mains), et le son d'une pluie de grêle assimilé au rythme du zapateado. La "Fête de Marco"qui cloture le film est comme l'aboutissement collectif d'un voyage intime, une harmonie retrouvée.

If you still think AI is just a Google replacement, you're already falling behind. Because here's the truth: AI is no longer about answering questions. It's building full-blown agents that handle entire workflows for you—freeing up your time, reducing burnout, and allowing you to scale smarter than ever before. In this episode, we sat down with Mark B, Head of AI at Geronimo, to break down exactly how AI is reshaping businesses RIGHT NOW.

Send us a textNote: Audio only, please see YouTube for video version.Hidden within the rugged terrain of New Mexico's Gila National Forest lies an engineering marvel with a fascinating past. The Catwalk National Recreational Trail suspends visitors along sheer canyon walls, following a path first blazed by silver miners in the 1890s.My journey begins at the trailhead where interpretive signs reveal the area's rich mining heritage. When silver and gold were discovered in Whitewater Canyon in 1889, ambitious prospectors built a wooden pipeline traversing three miles of treacherous terrain. Workers maintained this structure by balancing on narrow wooden planks that earned the nickname "catwalk" due to the cat-like agility required to navigate them. Though mining operations ceased by 1913, this remarkable pathway found new life decades later.Walking the modern metal walkway, I'm struck by the dramatic juxtaposition of human engineering against raw nature. The first half-mile offers accessible, paved paths 40 feet above Whitewater Creek. Evidence of nature's power is everywhere—reinforced rock walls, mesh barriers, and countless stabilizing bolts testify to the 15 major floods that have reshaped this canyon over four decades. The 2012 flood destroyed the previous infrastructure, making today's trail a modern rebuild that honors its historic predecessor.The canyon's volcanic geology tells an even older story. I examine fascinating formations, including pumice, lithics, and "stone bubbles"—gas pockets trapped in rock and lined with tiny crystals. The diverse ecosystem supports Ponderosa pines, Douglas firs, sycamores, and desert plants, creating a biological transition zone unique to this riparian corridor.For those seeking adventure beyond the main attraction, the trail connects to the more challenging Whitewater Trail #207, leading deeper into the wilderness. This entire area once served as a sanctuary for Native Americans, including Geronimo, adding another layer to its remarkable story.Whether you're fascinated by mining history, engineering achievements, geological wonders, or simply seeking stunning canyon views, the Catwalk Trail delivers an unforgettable experience that bridges New Mexico's rugged past with its preserved natural beauty. Bring proper footwear, water, and your sense of wonder—this hidden gem awaits your discovery.Support the show

Ben (@nonsensenamecards) collects stories.

It's about how one collector follows his interests, turns research into passion, and treats cards as artifacts that tell us something real about the past—and about ourselves.We talk:Allen & Ginter, Felix Potin, and the chase for contextWhy it's OK to collect across sports, eras, and categoriesHow collecting can help you slow down and learnBen reminds us that there's no right way to collect—only your way.Get exclusive content, promote your cards, and connect with other collectors who listen to the pod today by joining the Patreon: Join Stacking Slabs Podcast Patreon[Distributed on Sunday] Sign up for the Stacking Slabs Weekly Rip Newsletter using this linkCheck out Card Ladder the official data partner of Stacking SlabsFollow Stacking Slabs: | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | TiktokFollow Ben: | Instagram

Thomas Jefferson was the masterly author of the ringing and rousing Declaration of Independence as well as a human trafficker and serial rapist. The second president embodies James Baldwin's observation that “American history is longer, larger, more various, more beautiful, and more terrible than anything anyone has ever said about it.” The US is a settler-colonial colossus whose founders committed one of the most massive genocides in the history of the world—violence in the service of wealth accumulation has been a national calling card from the start. It's also the birthplace of Harriett Tubman, John Brown, Geronimo, Malcolm X, Grace Lee Boggs, and generations of freedom-fighters. The wealth and the power of the US derives from armed robbery, serial murder, stolen land, and forced labor—that's legacy. And we cannot be free without facing the complexity and the hard truth. We're joined in conversation with Jesse Hagopian, one of the most brilliant contemporary voices in education, and author, most recently, of Teach Truth : The Struggle for Antiracist Education, an essential text for these troubled times.

From master planning to conceptual design and permitting, we are your trusted partner in creating exceptional experiences and places.WE BELIEVEThat human and ecological wellbeing forms the foundation for thriving communities.WE EXISTTo enrich people's lives through the power of outdoor recreation.If that doesn't mean anything to you, then this will:Why I interviewed himNature versus nurture: God throws together the recipe, we bake the casserole. A way to explain humans. Sure he's six foot nine, but his mom dropped him into the intensive knitting program at Montessori school 232, so he can't play basketball for s**t. Or identical twins, separated at birth. One grows up as Sir Rutherford Ignacious Beaumont XIV and invents time travel. The other grows up as Buford and is the number seven at Okey-Doke's Quick Oil Change & Cannabis Emporium. The guts matter a lot, but so does the food.This is true of ski areas as well. An earthquake here, a glacier there, maybe a volcanic eruption, and, presto: a non-flat part of the earth on which we may potentially ski. The rest is up to us.It helps if nature was thoughtful enough to add slopes of varying but consistent pitch, a suitable rise from top to bottom, a consistent supply of snow, a flat area at the base, and some sort of natural conduit through which to move people and vehicles. But none of that is strictly necessary. Us humans (nurture), can punch green trails across solid-black fall lines (Jackson Hole), bulldoze a bigger hill (Caberfae), create snow where the clouds decline to (Wintergreen, 2022-23), plant the resort base at the summit (Blue Knob), or send skiers by boat (Eaglecrest).Someone makes all that happen. In North America, that someone is often SE Group, or their competitor, Ecosign. SE Group helps ski areas evolve into even better ski areas. That means helping to plan terrain expansions, lift replacements, snowmaking upgrades, transit connections, parking enhancements, and whatever built environment is under the ski area's control. SE Group is often the machine behind those Forest Service ski area master development plans that I so often spotlight. For example, Vail Mountain:When I talk about Alta consolidating seven slow lifts into four fast lifts; or Little Switzerland carving their mini-kingdom into beginner, parkbrah, and racer domains; or Mount Bachelor boosting its power supply to run more efficiently, this is the sort of thing that SE plots out (I'm not certain if they were involved in any or all of those projects).Analyzing this deliberate crafting of a natural bump into a human playground is the core of what The Storm is. I love, skiing, sure, but specifically lift-served skiing. I'm sure it's great to commune with the raccoons or whatever it is you people do when you discuss “skinning” and “AT setups.” But nature left a few things out. Such as: ski patrol, evacuation sleds, avalanche control, toilet paper, water fountains, firepits, and a place to charge my phone. Oh and chairlifts. And directional signs with trail ratings. And a snack bar.Skiing is torn between competing and contradictory narratives: the misanthropic, which hates crowds and most skiers not deemed sufficiently hardcore; the naturalistic, which mistakes ski resorts with the bucolic experience that is only possible in the backcountry; the preservationist, with its museum-ish aspirations to glasswall the obsolete; the hyperactive, insisting on all fast lifts and groomed runs; the fatalists, who assume inevitable death-of-concept in a warming world.None of these quite gets it. Ski areas are centers of joy and memory and bonhomie and possibility. But they are also (mostly), businesses. They are also parks, designed to appeal to as many skiers as possible. They are centers of organized risk, softened to minimize catastrophic outcomes. They must enlist machine aid to complement natural snowfall and move skiers up those meddlesome but necessary hills. Ski areas are nature, softened and smoothed and labelled by their civilized stewards, until the land is not exactly a representation of either man or God, but a strange and wonderful hybrid of both.What we talked aboutOld-school Cottonwoods vibe; “the Ikon Pass has just changed the industry so dramatically”; how to become a mountain planner for a living; what the mountain-planning vocation looked like in the mid-1980s; the detachable lift arrives; how to consolidate lifts without sacrificing skier experience; when is a lift not OK?; a surface lift resurgence?; how sanctioned glades changed ski areas; the evolution of terrain parks away from mega-features; the importance of terrain parks to small ski areas; reworking trails to reduce skier collisions; the curse of the traverse; making Jackson more approachable; on terrain balance; how megapasses are redistributing skier visits; how to expand a ski area without making traffic worse; ski areas that could evolve into major destinations; and ski area as public park or piece of art.What I got wrong* I blanked on the name of the famous double chair at A-Basin. It is Pallavicini.* I called Crystal Mountain's two-seater served terrain “North Country or whatever” – it is actually called “Northway.”* I said that Deer Valley would become the fourth- or fifth-largest ski resort in the nation once its expansion was finished. It will become the sixth-largest, at 4,926 acres, when the next expansion phase opens for winter 2025-26, and will become the fourth-largest, at 5,726 acres, at full build out.* I estimated Kendall Mountain's current lift-served ski footprint at 200 vertical feet; it is 240 feet.Why now was a good time for this interviewWe have a tendency, particularly in outdoor circles, to lionize the natural and shame the human. Development policy in the United States leans heavily toward “don't,” even in areas already designated for intensive recreation. We mustn't, plea activists: expand the Palisades Tahoe base village; build a gondola up Little Cottonwood Canyon; expand ski terrain contiguous with already-existing ski terrain at Grand Targhee.I understand these impulses, but I believe they are misguided. Intensive but thoughtful, human-scaled development directly within and adjacent to already-disturbed lands is the best way to limit the larger-scale, long-term manmade footprint that chews up vast natural tracts. That is: build 1,000 beds in what is now a bleak parking lot at Palisades Tahoe, and you limit the need for homes to be carved out of surrounding forests, and for hundreds of cars to daytrip into the ski area. Done right, you even create a walkable community of the sort that America conspicuously lacks.To push back against, and gradually change, the Culture of No fueling America's mountain town livability crises, we need exhibits of these sorts of projects actually working. More Whistlers (built from scratch in the 1980s to balance tourism and community) and fewer Aspens (grandfathered into ski town status with a classic street and building grid, but compromised by profiteers before we knew any better). This is the sort of work SE is doing: how do we build a better interface between civilization and nature, so that the former complements, rather than spoils, the latter?All of which is a little tangential to this particular podcast conversation, which focuses mostly on the ski areas themselves. But America's ski centers, established largely in the middle of the last century, are aging with the towns around them. Just about everything, from lifts to lodges to roads to pipes, has reached replacement age. Replacement is a burden, but also an opportunity to create a better version of something. Our ski areas will not only have faster lifts and newer snowguns – they will have fewer lifts and fewer guns that carry more people and make more snow, just as our built footprint, thoughtfully designed, can provide more homes for more people on less space and deliver more skiers with fewer vehicles.In a way, this podcast is almost a canonical Storm conversation. It should, perhaps, have been episode one, as every conversation since has dealt with some version of this question: how do humans sculpt a little piece of nature into a snowy park that we visit for fun? That is not an easy or obvious question to answer, which is why SE Group exists. Much as I admire our rough-and-tumble Dave McCoy-type founders, that improvisational style is trickier to execute in our highly regulated, activist present.And so we rely on artist-architects of the SE sort, who inject the natural with the human without draining what is essential from either. Done well, this crafted experience feels wild. Done poorly – as so much of our legacy built environment has been – and you generate resistance to future development, even if that future development is better. But no one falls in love with a blueprint. Experiencing a ski area as whatever it is you think a ski area should be is something you have to feel. And though there is a sort of magic animating places like Alta and Taos and Mammoth and Mad River Glen and Mount Bohemia, some ineffable thing that bleeds from the earth, these ski areas are also outcomes of a human-driven process, a determination to craft the best version of skiing that could exist for mass human consumption on that shred of the planet.Podcast NotesOn MittersillMittersill, now part of Cannon Mountain, was once a separate ski area. It petered out in the mid-‘80s, then became a sort of Cannon backcountry zone circa 2009. The Mittersill double arrived in 2010, followed by a T-bar in 2016.On chairlift consolidationI mention several ski areas that replaced a bunch of lifts with fewer lifts:The HighlandsIn 2023, Boyne-owned The Highlands wiped out three ancient Riblet triples and replaced them with this glorious bubble six-pack:Here's a before-and-after:Vernon Valley-Great Gorge/Mountain CreekI've called Intrawest's transformation of Vernon Valley-Great Gorge into Mountain Creek “perhaps the largest single-season overhaul of a ski area in the history of lift-served skiing.” Maybe someone can prove me wrong, but just look at this place circa 1989:It looked substantively the same in 1998, when, in a single summer, Intrawest tore out 18 lifts – 15 double chairs, two platters, and a T-bar, plus God knows how many ropetows – and replaced them with two high-speed quads, two fixed-grip quads, and a bucket-style Cabriolet lift that every normal ski area uses as a parking lot transit machine:I discussed this incredible transformation with current Hermitage Club GM Bill Benneyan, who worked at Mountain Creek in 1998, back in 2020:I misspoke on the podcast, saying that Intrawest had pulled out “something like a dozen lifts” and replaced them with “three or four” in 1998.KimberleyBack in the time before social media, Kimberley, British Columbia ran four frontside chairlifts: a high-speed quad, a triple, a double, and a T-bar:Beginning in 2001, the ski area slowly removed everything except the quad. Which was fine until an arsonist set fire to Kimberley's North Star Express in 2021, meaning skiers had no lift-served option to the backside terrain:I discussed this whole strange sequence of events with Andy Cohen, longtime GM of sister resort Fernie, on the podcast last year:On Revelstoke's original masterplanIt is astonishing that Revelstoke serves 3,121 acres with just five lifts: a gondola, two high-speed quads, a fixed quad, and a carpet. Most Midwest ski areas spin three times more lifts for three percent of the terrain.On Priest Creek and Sundown at SteamboatSteamboat, like many ski areas, once ran two parallel fixed-grip lifts on substantively the same line, with the Priest Creek double and the Sundown triple. The Sundown Express quad arrived in 1992, but Steamboat left Priest Creek standing for occasional overflow until 2021. Here's Steamboat circa 1990:Priest Creek is gone, but that entire 1990 lift footprint is nearly unrecognizable. Huge as Steamboat is, every arriving skier squeezes in through a single portal. One of Alterra's first priorities was to completely re-imagine the base area: sliding the existing gondola looker's right; installing an additional 10-person, two-stage gondola right beside it; and moving the carpets and learning center to mid-mountain:On upgrades at A-BasinWe discuss several upgrades at A-Basin, including Lenawee, Beavers, and Pallavicini. Here's the trailmap for context:On moguls on Kachina Peak at TaosYeah I'd say this lift draws some traffic:On the T-bar at Waterville ValleyWaterville Valley opened in 1966. Fifty-two years later, mountain officials finally acknowledged that chairlifts do not work on the mountain's top 400 vertical feet. All it took was a forced 1,585-foot shortening of the resort's base-to-summit high-speed quad just eight years after its 1988 installation and the legacy double chair's continued challenges in wind to say, “yeah maybe we'll just spend 90 percent less to install a lift that's actually appropriate for this terrain.” That was the High Country T-bar, which arrived in 2018. It is insane to look at ‘90s maps of Waterville pre- and post-chop job:On Hyland Hills, MinnesotaWhat an insanely amazing place this is:On Sunrise ParkFrom 1983 to 2017, Sunrise Park, Arizona was home to the most amazing triple chair, a 7,982-foot-long Yan with 352 carriers. Cyclone, as it was known, fell apart at some point and the resort neglected to fix or replace it. A couple of years ago, they re-opened the terrain to lift-served skiing with a low-cost alternative: stringing a ropetow from a green run off the Geronimo lift to where Cyclone used to land.On Woodward Park City and BorealPowdr has really differentiated itself with its Woodward terrain parks, which exist at amazing scale at Copper and Bachelor. The company has essentially turned two of its smaller ski areas – Boreal and Woodward Park City – entirely over to terrain parks.On Killington's tunnelsYou have to zoom in, but you can see them on the looker's right side of the trailmap: Bunny Buster at Great Northern, Great Bear at Great Northern, and Chute at Great Northern.On Jackson Hole traversesJackson is steep. Engineers hacked it so kids like mine could ride there:On expansions at Beaver Creek, Keystone, AspenRecent Colorado expansions have tended to create vast zones tailored to certain levels of skiers:Beaver Creek's McCoy Park is an incredible top-of-the-mountain green zone:Keystone's Bergman Bowl planted a high-speed six-pack to serve 550 acres of high-altitude intermediate terrain:And Aspen – already one of the most challenging mountains in the country – added Hero's – a fierce black-diamond zone off the summit:On Wilbere at SnowbirdWilbere is an example of a chairlift that kept the same name, even as Snowbird upgraded it from a double to a quad and significantly moved the load station and line:On ski terrain growth in AmericaYes, a bunch of ski areas have disappeared since the 1980s, but the raw amount of ski terrain has been increasing steadily over the decades:On White Pine, WyomingCushing referred to White Pine as a “dinky little ski area” with lots of potential. Here's a look at the thousand-footer, which billionaire Joe Ricketts purchased last year:On Deer Valley's expansionYeah, Deer Valley is blowing up:On Schweitzer's growthSchweitzer's transformation has been dramatic: in 1988, the Idaho panhandle resort occupied a large footprint that was served mostly by double chairs:Today: a modern ski area, with four detach quads, a sixer, and two newer triples – only one old chairlift remains:On BC transformationsA number of British Columbia ski areas have transformed from nubbins to majors over the past 30 years:Sun Peaks, then known as Tod Mountain, in 1993Sun Peaks today:Fernie in 1996, pre-upward expansion:Fernie today:Revelstoke, then known as Mount Mackenzie, in 1996:Modern Revy:Kicking Horse, then known as “Whitetooth” in 1994:Kicking Horse today:On Tamarack's expansion potentialTamarack sits mostly on Idaho state land, and would like to expand onto adjacent U.S. Forest Service land. Resort President Scott Turlington discussed these plans in depth with me on the pod a few years back:The mountain's plans have changed since, with a smaller lift footprint:On Central Park as a manmade placeNew York City's fabulous Central Park is another chunk of earth that may strike a visitor as natural, but is in fact a manmade work of art crafted from the wilderness. Per the Central Park Conservancy, which, via a public-private partnership with the city, provides the majority of funds, labor, and logistical support to maintain the sprawling complex:A popular misconception about Central Park is that its 843 acres are the last remaining natural land in Manhattan. While it is a green sanctuary inside a dense, hectic metropolis, this urban park is entirely human-made. It may look like it's naturally occurring, but the flora, landforms, water, and other features of Central Park have not always existed.Every acre of the Park was meticulously designed and built as part of a larger composition—one that its designers conceived as a "single work of art." Together, they created the Park through the practice that would come to be known as "landscape architecture."The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round. Join us.

John G. Bourke won the Medal of Honor during the American Civil War.  He stayed in the army and graduated from West Point in 1869.  Between 1869 and 1883, Bourke served on the frontier with much of that time spent as an aide to General George Crook.  Bourke saw action in the Apache Wars and Great Sioux War.  He clashed with Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, and Geronimo.  Bourke was a keen observer and chronicled his varied experiences.  He published them in 1892 under the title of "On the Border With Crook."  This book is a raw, insightful, and fascinating firsthand account of life in America's Old West.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the ninety-sixth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by the Task Force Senior for the BDE Command & Control (BCT HQ), LTC Timothy Price on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guests are the notorious “Geronimo 06,” LTC Mason Thornal, and a seasoned Observer-Coach-Trainer across the fire support enterprise at the JRTC, CW3 Jerrad Rader. LTC Mason Thornal is the Battalion Commander of 1-509th IN (OPFOR). CW3 Jerrad Rader is the Brigade Targeting Officer OCT for BC2 (BCT HQ) with seventeen rotations as an OCT. In this episode, we focus on the integration and employment of small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) at echelon during large-scale combat operations (LSCO). The conversation explores how sUAS platforms—ranging from short-range quadcopters to medium-range reconnaissance systems—are increasingly prevalent across formations, including at the squad, company, and battalion levels. While these tools enhance battlefield transparency and ISR (intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance) capabilities, they also introduce significant challenges in areas such as target identification, airspace deconfliction, and command and control. Rather than solving new problems, sUAS platforms are reframing existing warfighting challenges with different tools and at new echelons, placing additional emphasis on defining authorities, refining standard operating procedures (SOPs), and ensuring operators understand their role within the broader targeting process.   The episode also highlights best practices and points of friction in employing sUAS across the force. A major issue is the lack of standardized processes and knowledge management systems to handle the influx of information generated by sUAS. Brigades must move beyond simply acquiring new platforms to fully integrating them into the targeting cycle, using tools like targeting synchronization matrices and engagement criteria. Proficiency and training are recurring themes—highlighting that operator skill can be the difference between mission success and failure. The episode concludes by urging leaders to invest in home station training, share lessons learned across units, and foster innovation at the lowest levels, reinforcing that success with sUAS in LSCO will come from disciplined process integration, not just hardware acquisition.   Part of S04 “Scouts Out” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

In 1519 a Spanish galleon brought ten stallions and six mares ashore, this would forever change the lives of the Native Americans. The tribes had distinct communities and customs with different languages, but they knew the universal sign language. The land was possessed in common as opposed to the European concept of land ownership. Over 350 treaties were made and broken. Thus began the saga of conflict with such famous Chiefs as Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Geronimo, Chief Joseph and many others. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

As suas crenças estão sabotando as suas finanças, FIVE! É isso mesmo que você leu… E eu não estou nem fazendo uma pergunta. Eu verdadeiramente estou afirmando! “Nossa, você está me julgando, então, Geronimo?”. Não! Eu só conheço o ser humano, e conheço tão bem que eu vou contar para você quais são as 10 piores crenças financeiras. E posso fazer uma aposta de que você certamente tem no mínimo uma dessas crenças (na verdade, talvez você tenha várias delas). E quer ver como eu estou certo? “Dinheiro não traz…”. “Dinheiro não dá em…”. Se você completou pelo menos uma dessas frases mentalmente, você já está com sintomas de crença negativa em relação ao dinheiro. E existem vários outros sintomas: ficar com o “nome sujo”; falta de prosperidade na vida financeira; receber um aumento mas continuar tendo dificuldade para pagar as contas… A boa notícia, FIVE, é que dá para você reverter essas crenças ruins e torná-las positivas, para viver uma nova realidade nessa área tão relevante da sua vida. Você só precisa saber como identificar essas crenças, pois elas são invisíveis, e se disfarçam como verdades absolutas nas nossas vidas. Por isso, para te ajudar nessa missão, eu preparei o episódio #221 do Sai da Média, o podcast de produtividade mais ouvido do Brasil: “As crenças que SABOTAM sua vida FINANCEIRA (e como REVERTÊ-LAS)” Dá o play e confere! → Imersão “Destrave o Coach que Existe em Você” - Vença suas inseguranças e finalmente dê o primeiro passo para transformar vidas (incluindo a sua).

I had Bob Ashley on today and what an interesting guy he is. I really enjoyed this podcast because it speaks to something that I've always enjoyed, which is  herpetology. As a child I was fascinated with reptiles and I'm still fascinated with them. Anybody who knows me has probably seen me move rattlesnakes off the road because I don't want them to get hurt. If you like herpetology, you're going to love this podcast  (plus it's the year of the snake). If you don't like herpetology and snakes, then you may not find it as interesting as I did.Bob has the Chiricahua Desert Museum, which is right on the border of New Mexico and Arizona off the I-10. It's not that far from Tucson and it's not only a museum of desert animals, but a museum that preserves and displays Apache material called the Apache Museum and Geronimo Events Center.He really is one of the top people in this field and a ton of different research gets done as a result of his commitment to herpetology, but he loves Native American art, specifically Apache because he lives and operates his museum in that region. He's very close to the point where Geronimo surrendered to the U.S. government. The museum has lots of different things that you can see and the whole history of that region from an indigenous standpoint, from Mimbres on up.Unique podcast, unique individual. I hope you do listen to it and I hope you go and visit it, which is at the Chiricahua Desert Museum, because it's a very interesting place to go. That's what this podcast is all about and that's what Bob Ashley is all about. He and I have, a similar love for snakes, herpetology, and Native American art.

Normalement, on évite d'évoquer l'âge des dames. Mais, voilà, Marie Tabarly a 40 ans, et on le souligne parce qu'à cet âge-là, si tout va bien, on est devenu soi-même - et c'est précisément le cas. De sa filiation particulière, la fille d'Eric en parle très simplement : le regard des autres, quelques facilités et beaucoup de devoirs. De la mer, des bateaux, des marins, du large et des chevaux, Marie en parle encore mieux.Sur le papier, un sillage d'héritière l'attendait ; dans les faits, elle a trace depuis toujours sa propre route. D'abord, au début des années 2000 dans le monde de la course, chez Banque Pop époque Orma puis à bord de Geronimo avec Olivier de Kersauson où elle s'éclate, avant une tentative avortée de devenir figariste. Puis, son autre passion prend le dessus, celle du cheval. Elle sera comportementaliste équine, après des études en France et aux Etats-Unis, au secours des relations entre chevaux et cavaliers.Mais la mer n'est jamais loin, et aux supports contemporains, elle préfère, à partir du début des années 2010, la voile classique et la bande de Mariska, avec qui elle écume avec succès le circuit des 15 M JI. Les bateaux de la famille ne sont pas oubliés et elle lance en 2017 Elemen'terre Project avec Pen Duick VI - qu'elle appelle tout simplement "le six". Après une petite pige en Imoca avec Louis Duc sur la Transat Jacques Vabre en 2021, les expéditions artistiques et environnementales se transforment en 2023 en une participation à l'Ocean Global Race, un tour du monde "à l'ancienne".Avec une quinzaine de marins amateurs recrutés sur Facebook, Pen Duick VI termine premier en temps réel et il faut écouter Marie Tabarly parler de sa bande pour comprendre le plaisir - et la dureté, aussi - de cette aventure, qu'elle a écrit et raconté sur scène au théâtre.La suite ? Elle a plein d'idées mais voudrait se poser un peu; Une chose est sûre : ce sera son cap à elle...Diffusé le 10 janvier 2025Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

ELLEN DREW: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH (069) Whether playing the sweet girl next door or the world-weary casino boss's moll, ELLEN DREW was an incredibly versatile leading lady who was a major star in the 1940s and 50s. She made a career of playing a wide range of roles in various genres — from Westerns to comedies to dramas to horror movies. She was nicknamed “The Candy Store Cinderella” because she was discovered scooping ice cream in a candy store on Hollywood Boulevard. And who do you think discovered her? You'll be quite surprised to find out. In this week's episode, we discuss our Star of the Month, ELLEN DREW.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Character Actors in Horror and Science Fiction Films, 1930-1960, (2014), by Laurence Raw; "Ellen Drew — The Private Life of Ellen Drew,” glamourgirlsofthesilverscreen.com; “Hollywood's Forgotten Daughters,” January 1986, by Anthony Cassa, Hollywood Studio Magazine; “Ellen Drew - Cinderellen,” January 2002, by Jeff Gordon, Classic Images magazine; “Ellen Drew, 89, Film and TV Actress Rose Through Ranks in Hollywood,” December 6, 2003, Los Angeles Times; TCM.com; IMDBPro.com; IBDB.com; Wikipedia.com; RogerEbert.com; Movies Mentioned:  Christmas in July  (1940), starring Dick Powell & Ellen Drew; Johnny O'Clock (1947), starring Dick Powell, Evelyn Keyes, Thomas Gomez, & Ellen Drew; Hollywood Boulevard (1936), starring Marsha Hunt & Robert Cummings; The Big Broadcast of 1937 (1936), starring Jack Benny, George Burns, & Gracie Allen; Make Way For Tomorrow (1937), staring Victor Moore & Beulah Bondi; Gone With The Wind (1939), starring Vivien Leigh & Clark Gable; Sing, You Sinners (1938), starring Bing Crosby, Fred MacMurray, & Ellen Drew; If I Were King (1938), starring Ronald Colman, Basil Rathbone, Frances Dee, & Ellen Drew; The Lady's From Kentucky (1939), staring George Raft & Ellen Drew; Geronimo (1939), starring Preston Foster; The Gracie Allen Murder Case (1939), starring Gracie Allen; French Without Tears (1940), starring Ray Milland & Ellen Drew; Buck Benny Rides Again (1940), starring Jack Benny; The Mad Doctor (1941), starring Basil Rathbone; The Monster and the Girl (1941), starring Paul Lukas & Philip Terry; Isle of the Dead (1945), starring Boris Karloff; Our Wife (1941), starring Melvyn Douglas, Ruth Hussey, & Ellen Drew; The Night of January 16th (1941), starring Preston Foster; Reaching For The Sun (1941), starring Joel McCrea & Ellen Drew; The Remarkable Andrew (1942), starring William Holden, Brian Donlevy, & Ellen Drew; My Favorite Spy (1942), starring Kay Kyser & Jane Wyman; Night Plane to Chungking (1942), starring Preston Foster & Ellen Drew; And The Angels Sing (1944), starring Dorothy Lamour, Fred MacMurray, & Betty Hutton; Strange Confession (1944), starring Jean Gabin; That's My Baby (1944), starring Richard Arlen & Ellen Drew; Dark Mountain (1944), starring Robert Lowery & Ellen Drew; China Sky (1945), starring Randolph Scott; The Swordsmen (1948), starring Larry Parks & Ellen Drew; The Man from Colorado (1949), starring William Holden & Glenn Ford; The Crocked Way (1949), starring John Payne, Sonny Tufts, & Ellen Drew; Stars In My Crown (1950), staring Joel McCrea & Ellen Drew; Cargo to Capetown (1950), starring Broderick Crawford & John Ireland; The Great Missouri Raid (1950), starring Wendell Corey; Man In The Saddle (1951), staring Randolph Scott & Joan Leslie; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.
