This week's episode is not that depressing at all! Relatively speaking! Taylor Camp was camp started by movie star Elizabeth Taylor('s brother)! He didn't really live there; it was less a traditional camp and more of a swath of undeveloped shoreline he gave to some hippies to piss off local Hawaiian authorities. It's that or a sojourn with Father Divine, a guy who was just straight-up God, according to him. (I mean why not, right?) He sure did feed and house a lot of hungry and desperate people during a time when it was needed most! Naturally he got arrested for it a lot. Join us for an episode with a legit surprise ending!

Amazing accomplishments, thrilling finishes and bizarre outcomes are the varying themes this week. Pink Lloyd won again – it was his 25th Stakes conquest. Trainer Robert Tiller expresses his love for the great sprinter. Jockey Patrick Husbands scored win #3501. Driver Ross Battin steered home his 5,000th winner. Jonathan Drury and Carmen Auciello teamed for a huge night at Mohawk. Chantal Sutherland was booting home winners at an awesome rate at Gulfstream. Brad Grant loves his amazing trotter Atlanta, so he and partner Howard Taylor ponied up large for a full baby sister. A horse owned by Bruno Schickedanz won a Stakes race at Aqueduct at 44-1, and where were you when the lights went out... at Grants Pass, Oregon?

It's been 80 years since philosopher Eric Fromm identified two types of freedom: “freedom from” -– to be no one's slave – and “freedom to” – to be the master of your own fate. And while we all idealize the latter, achieving the former, the freedom from use and abuse is no small feat in this day and age, especially for Africa, which for centuries has been exploited under all sorts of pretexts. What needs to happen for the continent to truly take its deserved place in the world? To discuss this, Oksana is joined by Jewel Howard-Taylor, vice president of Liberia. This interview was filmed at the Eurasian Women's Forum in St. Petersburg.

Meditación ”Quieto estuvo Moab desde su juventud, y sobre su sedimento ha estado reposado, y no fue vaciado de vasija en vasija, ni nunca estuvo en cautiverio; por tanto, quedó su sabor en él y su olor no se ha cambiado.” (Jeremías 48:11) Jeremías ilustra su dicho valiéndose del arte de hacer vinos para enseñarnos que una vida de comodidad no produce fortaleza de carácter.Siempre que el vino se fermenta en toneles o tinajas, los posos o restos se van al fondo. Si el vino se deja tranquilo, se vuelve desagradable al gusto. El vinatero debe vaciar el vino de vasija en vasija para eliminar los restos y las impurezas. Sólo así el vino desarrolla fuerza, aroma, color y sabor.Moab había vivido siempre en la tranquilidad. Jamás había sufrido las incomodidad es de la cautividad. Se había aislado de los problemas, las penas y las privaciones. El resultado fue que su vida era monótona e insípida. Carecía de fragancia y sazón.Lo que se dice del vino también se puede decir de nosotros. Necesitamos los obstáculos, la oposición, las dificultades y las molestias para deshacernos de las impurezas y desarrollar las virtudes de una vida llena de Cristo. Nuestra tendencia natural es protegernos incesantemente de cualquier cosa que nos perturbe.Pero la voluntad de Dios para nosotros es que vivamos en medio de una crisis continua que nos lleve a depender de Él. Nuestro Señor siempre estará agitando el nido.En la biografía de Hudson Taylor, la señora de Howard Taylor escribió: “Esta vida que estaba destinada a ser una bendición para todo el mundo debía pasar a través de un proceso muy variado (esto es, nunca se le permitió estancarse en sus impurezas), que incluyó mucho de ese vaciar y volver a vaciar ‘de vasija en vasija', tan doloroso para nuestra naturaleza más baja, de la que estamos siendo refinados”. Cuando nos percatamos de lo que el Divino Vinatero está buscando realizar en nuestra vida, dejamos nuestra rebelión y aprendemos a someternos y a depender de Él. Entonces podemos decir: Deja a su soberano dominio, escoger y disponer; Así te asombrarás de Su camino, qué sabia, qué fuerte es Su mano. Muy lejos de tu pensamiento, su consejo aparecerá, Cuando veas la obra que forja, tu temor se disipará.

I'm reading a biography of the short missionary life of William Borden, turn of the last century. It's called Borden of Yale '09 by Mrs. Howard Taylor. It's considered to be a good bio of the young millionaire who gave it all up to be a missionary, but tragically died before he reached his intended field. It's a good book that paints a sweet picture of a godly man raised in a godly family. This biography led me to knowledge of G. Campbell Morgan, who apparently is one of the 20th century's great expositors. This episode is also available as a blog post: http://the-end-time.org/2021/04/12/heres-why-we-should-read-old-books/ I use the NASB translation. Link to The Internet Archive Open Library on G.

Mending Broken Relationships in the Holidays (0:00:00) We all probably have had or currently have a relationship that's needed some mending. Maybe it was just a slow drift apart or maybe you can recall the argument that broke the relationship. Whatever the case, there is no better time to fix a broken relationship than the holidays. It's a season that's dedicated to selfless acts of charity, love, and kindness. With us today is Emily Taylor about how we can go about mending broken relationships the right ways. Emily is a certified mediator and assistant director of the Center for Peace and Conflict Resolution at the BYU Law School.   Lisa's Christmas Music Sampler: Cold Creek (0:19:31) The band Cold Creek performs their song Mashing Through the Snow and talk about their modified holiday plans this year.   The Top 20 Worst Christmas Songs (0:34:27) Lisa and Richie talk through the top 20 worst Christmas songs of all time, according to Esquire.   The Fundamentals of Marriage (1:11:10) The crazy thing about fundamentals is that they are necessary, yet we seem to always forget them. Take driving for example. As we become experienced drivers, we tend to think that the basics, keeping our hands on the 10 and 2 while driving, checking our mirrors, and always wearing our seatbelt, don't apply to us. The same goes for marriage. We all know that communication is key, that service helps our love grow deeper, and that you can never say “I love you” too much.  But after being in a relationship for a long time, we often lose sight of those necessary fundamentals that keep our partnerships strong. So here to remind us of the basics of a successful marriage and also give advice on how to reincorporate them into our relationships is Danielle and Howard Taylor, certified marriage coaches and authors of The Fundamentals of Marriage.

The organisation was founded in 2016 by the Secretary General of the United Nations; its Board includes the head of UNICEF and the head of the World Health Organisation (WHO). It is a public-private collaboration that includes UN agencies, governments, industry and others.  They have more than 400 members.   Collectively, they want to raise awareness, catalyse leadership commitments, mobilise resources, promote evidence-based solutions and support those who are working on the front line to tackle all forms of violence, abuse and neglect of children.   Early on in the podcast, we delve into the large amount of useful information they’re curating, which is available on their website, to help ensure children are protected during this period of uncertainty with the COVID-19 backdrop.    The Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children acts as a focal point of evidence-based information that is of relevance across many sectors, such as health, education and social services.  We are reminded that many sectors are involved in protecting children from violence.   Howard remarks that the risks children face right now are not new risks but they are exacerbated risks, due in great part to the high stress of COVID-19 in domestic environments -- confinement, isolation, job loss etc.   We hear how children are spending much more time online, and this increases risk.   Collectively, the Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children is trying to ensure child protection is embedded in government responses to COVID-19 across the globe. This is a key priority. It is also imperative that child protection services continue to be seen as essential services and get resourced appropriately during this pandemic.   Howard notes they must ensure that they get the right evidence-based advice to parents, caregivers and to children themselves. And, he underscores the importance of providing ‘evidence-based’ information since there is a lot of questionable information sloshing around out there. He notes it is a privilege to be working so closely with UNICEF, the WHO, the US Centers for Disease Control and many others – drawing on a wealth of experience and expertise.   One of the challenges right now is packaging this evidence-based information in the appropriate way to ensure it’s reaching the right audiences, with the right messages, in a timely fashion, to equip parents, caregivers and in some cases the children themselves to stay safe.   Countries are at different stages in dealing with the impact of COVID-19 and are embracing different responses. Irrespective of each country’s particular circumstances, Howard wants to ensure governments are taking child protection seriously. It is important to note this issue doesn’t go away once a coronavirus vaccine is made available. The violence, neglect and abuse experienced by children today will have very long-lasting effects on individual children and national economies.   There are approximately 1.5bn children who were previously in school and now are out of school due to COVID-19. Much of what these children are doing today is online; and they’re not connecting in person with teachers, friends or social workers – the network of people children normally have around them who can serve a protective function.   It’s important that parents and caregivers know what children are doing online. Moreover, we hear how there is also a role for technology companies and telecoms companies to play as well. There are certain things they can do in terms of making their platforms, their social media and their learning spaces as safe as possible; and, they can also help push out child safety messages and help detect, disrupt and stop any harmful activity that’s going on.    The episode also touches on the increased vulnerability of certain at-risk segments, such as children who are refugees, migrants, displaced children and children living in conflict environments; often without parental care, living on the streets or in urban slums.  On top of everything, there’s also a gender dimension to keep in mind since girls are at higher risk than boys.   Howard speaks about his organisation’s strategic considerations in light of COVID-19 – his organisation employs approximately 25 staff who are mainly based in the USA and Geneva, Switzerland.  Many of them have worked in social impact and international development, yet none of them have ever worked through a global pandemic of this nature. The challenge now is that this pandemic doesn’t only impact their beneficiaries but, indeed, it has a direct impact on the team as individuals and the organisation as a whole.   Despite the wealth of experience the team has in dealing with conflicts and various other crises over many years and many places, the COVID-19 pandemic feels qualitatively different.  Everyone in Howard’s team is remote working and they’ve done much by way of scenario thinking and contingency planning as they try to figure out what this pandemic could look like as time moves on.   It’s not just about how to end violence during COVID-19 but also nobody knows exactly how lockdowns will unwind or how COVID-19 will eventually unfold, or when a vaccine will come in, so it’s also about thinking of the next 18 months and beyond, and what is going to be needed, what is going to be possible and how do they go about that with and through their partners.   Howard also introduces listeners to their ‘Fund’, which has made significant investments in the last few years – particularly to address child online safety and also for children in humanitarian areas of conflict. In light of COVID-19, they’re now reaching out to their grantees to find out what they need on the ground, what the implications are for the work they’re doing, and what it means for them not just workwise but also organisationally.  It is a fund that has mainly been funded by governments and foundations but that is open to everyone who wishes to support the work they’re doing.   We then also hear of INSPIRE – a set of evidence-based strategies for countries and communities working to eliminate violence against children, which was created by various UN agencies, the US Centers for Disease Control and others.  Howard noted that it’s probably the best example of a comprehensive set of strategies which, if adopted, followed, resourced and implemented give you a good shot at ending violence against children.   When asked what success looks like for the next 10 years: Howard would like to see target 16.2 of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) achieved by 2030 – the target focuses on eliminating violence against children. He views it as his job, and that of his team and partners, to hold governments to account and, indeed, also to support governments with the evidence and resources.   Howard’s key takeaway: Firstly, we can and must do more to protect children during COVID-19. Secondly, to have optimism that coming out of COVID-19 the world isn’t going to be the same as it was before, and so asking what is it going to look like to build back differently. Whether that’s around the level of consciousness and awareness of the issue; whether that’s around action that’s taken to address the issue of violence, abuse and neglect of children. Do more now, and in doing so be more aware and, then, let’s build back differently as we come out of this crisis to whatever the next new normal is going to look like for children all over the world.   Visit Lidji.org for guest bios, episode notes and useful links.

In a year that has seen a record rise in the number of people seeking medical help after eating poisonous fungi, Richard Uridge visits the New Forest to hear about the variety of wild mushrooms to be found, the dangers of picking the wrong ones and the problems this can also cause to the ecosystem of the forest. Richard joins mycologist, John Wright, to hear about his lifelong passion for wild mushrooms and joins him on a forage in the forest to find out how to know what to look for when picking fungi. Mrs Brigitte Tee is the only person liced to pick and sell New Forest mushrooms. She tells Richard how her love of wild mushrooms began when she first spotted them from the saddle of her Welsh mountain cob pony over 35 years ago. Today Mrs Tee is one of the leading authorities on edible wild mushrooms, and supplies a variety of top clients including Fortnum and Masons, the Langham Hotel in London and chef, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall It is the popularity of TV chefs and cooking shows that Forestry Commission Keeper, Howard Taylor, thinks has increased the public's passion for fungi. He joins Richard to explain the importance of the relationship that fungi have with other trees and plants in the forest and the dangers of over-picking the many wild mushrooms that grow there. As well as the obvious dangers of picking poisonous fungi, Howard's remit as a Keeper is also to protect the landscape of the New Forest and the rise in numbers of wild mushroom pickers may lead to an upsetting of the delicate balance of the Forest. Before Richard leaves the New Forest, he and Mrs Tee are joined by John Macarthur, chef and director of the New Forest Cookery School. John runs Mushroom Masterclasses and demonstrates to Richard some of the wonderful ways of cooking with wild mushrooms.

Trees is one of a number of works in egg tempera that Howard Taylor painted from around 1950. The work is a disciplined study of line, light and shape combined to create an overall shimmering effect. In this work Taylor explored the ephemeral qualities of light and colour and the rich and subtle surfaces he observed in the Australian bush. He said that: ‘painting the Australian landscape involved a big change for me, and another change was that I soon got more involved in tempera painting … if you paint in tempera you become engaged in a highly disciplined technique … you’ve got to plan right from the beginning.’1 In Trees the composition is divided into distinct planes, the horizontal bands set against a vertical cluster of trees. Positioned in the centre of the work is the apex of a circle. This circle is filled with light from an unknown source. Around its perimeter are eight trees, the trunks of which create long shadows stretching to the bottom right-hand corner of the composition. The tree foliage resembles a three-dimensional structure, carefully constructed by lines and subtle tonal variations. The shape of a figure 8 defines this arrangement, symbolic of infinity and the cyclical patterns of nature. Trees is a dense picture, yet the overall effect is one of lightness. The meticulous repetition of line suggests both the complexity and ethereal delicacy of the natural world. 1 Howard Taylor, interview by James Murdoch in 1986 for the Australia Council Archival Art Series.
