Judith Herman is renowned for her groundbreaking work with survivors of trauma, including sexual trauma. Her earlier books include Trauma and Recovery: The Aftermath of Violence - from Domestic Abuse to Political Terror (Basic Books, 2022) and Father-Daughter Incest (Harvard UP, 2000) The #MeToo movement brought worldwide attention to sexual violence, in both domestic and work settings. However, the movement did not address the crime of sexual violence in war, and the use of rape as a weapon of war. In fact, when these historical horrors were brutally used once again in October 2023, the #MeToo movement, and other feminist and anti-rape organizations responded - not with outrage- but with silence. In contrast, high profile, celebrity cases of sexual abuse and harasment in the U.S. and U.K. gained media coverage, with attention focused on the fates of a few notorious predators who were put on trial. We heard far less about the outcomes of those trials for the survivors of their abuse. Professor Herman maintains that conventional retributive process fails to serve most survivors; it was never designed for them. She argues that the first step toward a better form of justice is simply to ask survivors what would make things as right as possible for them. In Truth and Repair: How Trauma Survivors Envision Justice (Basic Books, 2023) she commits the radical act of listening to survivors. Recounting their stories, she offers an alternative vision of justice as healing for survivors and their communities. Learn more about your ad choices.

Wine has a unique way of bringing people together and creating lasting memories, but it can also be intimidating, especially when it comes to deciphering the often cryptic language used to describe the different types of wines. The wine world is full of insider terms that can make understanding the nuances of a bottle of wine feel like an impossible task. It's time for this trend to be put aside. They don't actually add anything to the conversation about wine, and they only serve to alienate those who don't understand them. In this episode with Judith Lewis, let's have a good laugh at all these wanky wine terms while decoding their meaning and understanding why they should be avoided. In doing so, we'll make the process of understanding and appreciating wine easier and more accessible for everyone. Join us as we debunk the jargon and discuss why it's important for everyone to enjoy wine without the stresses of learning complicated wine terms. What you will learn from these episodes: Find out what some of these wanky wine terms are to get a glimpse of the insider's wine lingo. Learn about what these terms mean so you avoid using them so as not to intimidate people about wine. Discover how using ridiculous wine terms only exclude instead of include most people. Learn how to be an effective wine communicator that people can relate to so they understand what they're consuming and that helps boost sales. Judith Lewis is a renowned international speaker, writer, trainer, blogger and digital media consultant specialising in applying strategic understanding of digital technologies to help businesses innovate and optimise their effectiveness within the new, networked communications environment. Deploying her skills across a number of sectors, Judith learned about wine making quite late, and is working on digitisation of the wine sector.

But again, what, how do we define a full-bodied wine?” “In the descriptors, when you're going through how sweet something is, luscious is defined as the top-end of sweetness. But that's only because that's what WSET has said.” “I just wanna lick a bit of your skirt, lady. Do you mind? Somebody said it was voluptuous, so I wanna taste voluptuous.” “As a child, I actually did lick rocks.” “Minerality: a lack of being beaten over the side of the head with a piece of fruit wrapped round a lovely small flower.” “It's one of those words that people throw around when they're really not sure what they're tasting.” “The only thing a wine education gives you is the ability to choose for a group of people, something that is in the middle of everybody's likes.” “I think people get mixed up because they think everything about wine is taste.”

In conversation with Bessel van der Kolk, M.D. Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation Endowed Lecture A professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School for more than 40 years, Judith Lewis Herman, M.D., is one of the United States' foremost experts on the treatment of post-traumatic stress and incest. ''One of the most important psychiatry works to be published since Freud'' (The New York Times), her groundbreaking 1992 book Trauma and Recovery: The Aftermath of Violence-From Domestic Abuse to Political Terror redefined medicine's understanding of trauma survivors. Herman is the director of training at the Victims of Violence Program at The Cambridge Hospital in Cambridge, Massachusetts and a founding member of the Women's Mental Health Collective. Her many honors include the 1996 Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies, the 2000 American Medical Women's Association Award, and in 2003 the American Psychiatric Association bestowed upon her the title of Distinguished Life Fellow. A manifesto for a new framework of justice, Truth and Repair argues that survivors' voices should be central elements in our criminal justice system. Bessel van der Kolk, M.D., is the author of the No. 1 New York Times bestseller The Body Keeps the Score, a watershed examination of the ways traumatic stress affects the physical health of human beings. The founder and medical director of the Trauma Center in Brookline, Massachusetts, he is a professor of psychiatry at the Boston University School of Medicine and is the director of the National Complex Trauma Treatment Network.

Have we grown past the pursuit of the almighty link above every other SEO tactic? Certainly, since Google released the Penguin update in 2012, addressing link farms and other issues associated with people gaming the system, the idea of getting as many links as you can is not the path toward ranking. But still, links are still a factor. So where do links legitimately fit into a solid SEO strategy? Wix's Head of SEO Branding, Mordy Oberstein, and Head of SEO Communications, Crystal Carter, carve up the links and their role in SEO like the Halloween Jack-o-lantern. There's a shift of mindset that has to occur in SEO. Both Mordy and Crystal agree that there is an over-emphasis on links for SEO. To them, links are fundamentally about traffic and helping users. Creating quality content that makes sense to link to is fundamental and earns market credibility, not “link juice.” Still, establishing quality links is integral to a well-built SEO campaign. The right links from the right sites pointing to the right pages can impact how well you rank. Which is why Debbie Chew, SEO Manager at Dialpad, shares her three best key link-building tactics, from personalized outreach to stats posts to research reports.

Judith Lewis talks with Jason Barnard about winning the linkbuilding game with data. Judith Lewis is the founder of Decabbit Consultancy and a conference speaker, digital marketing specialist, trainer, Search Awards Ambassador and Chocolate & Wine judge. She is an experienced online marketer who began her career in the industry in 1996. Like everyone else at the time, she learned through patient testing and experimentation how the various search engine algorithms work, especially the Google algorithm. She discovered her expertise in online marketing by combining her specialised studies in psychology with her programming experience. White hat, gray hat, and black hat…. You might think that refers to fashion ;) But in the context of Kalicube Tuesdays, the Shades of Gray hat reference refers to link building. White hat is the good one, gray is borderline sneaky and black hat is all about underhanded tactics that aim to trick the algorithm. Which hat should you wear? Whichever hat you choose, data is a great way of identifying valuable links. Judith Lewis joins Jason Barnard for a fun filled and intelligent discussion about all shades of link building and how you can use data to help you.

Judith Lewis joins the SEO Rant Podcast to go off on horrible link building practices: * Bad metrics for bad links * How to build links the right way * What link outreach requires to actually work There is no bottom of the barrel to the stupidity that goes on around link building.

According to Google, you create the best content and the rest will follow. Links will come running towards your page and you will rank high on Google SERP. The truth is very different from the official lie told for 20 years by the biggest Search Engine in the world. SEO dominate Google, but you can't follow the Google Guidelines if you want to rank high on competitive keywords. Links are the most powerful asset in the SEO toolbox. On top of backlinks, don't forget to improve your internal linking. Backlinks are the strongest links, but a link is a link. Smart internal linking can be the decisive factor.

The number of words per page is nothing like Ranking Studies show. An average number of words ideal to rank on Google is advised by many SEO. In fact, there isn't an ideal average number of words per page. Depending on the user intent, the topic requires more or less explanation. On the other hand, there is a minimum number of words for Google to get an idea of what you talk about on a page. Below 300 words, there is not enough information.

On SEO Conspiracy, we will keep on pounding about Domain Authority as one of the biggest myth about Search Engine Optimization for Google. Everybody knows it was a score invented by Moz.com, but the issue is a little bit more complicated than that. If you deal Domain Authority, your analysis will be flawed. Even if you want to use magic potion by SEO druids, please don't do it on the domain level. Everything happens on the page level. Once a SEO starts to put in motion a mindset around this simple shift, amazing things start happening. Take the Web, take Google, take SEO URL by URL and you will start to understand how things work. Who is in relation to what and why is the key, but it's not happening on a domain level. There are signals of authority and trust analyzed by Google, but we are getting into entity territory. Certainly not anything to deal with Domain Authority. At least, if those guys would have some kind of scientific approach, it could be interesting. Instead, they throw you a score and ask you to trust them, without knowing anything about how this score is calculated As always, this is only our opinion.

Slake Issue 4 The editors behind Slake: Los Angeles, A City and Its Stories, clean up with a collection of stories and images inspired by Dirt -- dirty politics, dirty air, dirty gossip, dirty sex, dirty family secrets and the dirt beneath our feet. Slake: Los Angeles is devoted to the endangered art of deeply reported narrative journalism and the kind of polished essay, memoir, fiction, poetry and portrait writing that is disappearing in a world of instant takes and unfiltered opinion. Designed with an artist's eye and published in a full-color, perfect-bound format, Slake: Los Angeles sets a new template for the next generation of print journalism -- collectible, not disposable; destined for the bedside table instead of the recycling bin. Seductive in its looks and content, Slake, created by former LA Weekly editors Joe Donnelly and Laurie Ochoa, marks a return to storytelling. Most important are the voices of Slake, some of the nation's finest writers, photographers and artists who live in Southern California and bring to Slake their own individual visions of Los Angeles and the world beyond. Contributors to Slake's past issues include Jerry Stahl, Luke Davies, Mark Z. Danielewski, Jonathan Gold, Geoff Nicholson, Michael Tolkiin, Michelle Huneven, Dana Goodyear, Sandow Birk, John Albert, John Powers, Judith Lewis, Iris Berry, Steven Kotler, Daniel Hernandez, C.R. Stecyk, Arty Nelson, Yxta Maya Murray and many more.
