War. Famine. Poverty. Violence. Natural Disasters. Working in humanitarian spaces puts us up close and personal with some of the worst kinds of evil and suffering. In the face of it all, we follow a God who is both all good and all powerful. How do those two realities compute? It's a quandary that has been around a long time and we've invited Southeastern University's Dr. Chris Palmer onto the show to help us think biblically and theologically when we're faced with the problem of evil. From the killing fields in Polpot's Cambodia to earthquakes in the Middle East, we wrestle the reality of pain while clinging to God's goodness and embracing the mystery.

Shailendra Kumar Singh's Between Resistance and Conformity: Premchand's Fiction in Colonial North India (Routledge, 2024) examines the questions of conformity and resistance with respect to Premchand's literary corpus. Mapping the various complexities, challenges, and contradictions of interwar India, it demonstrates how the passive peasant protagonists of the writer's fictional works present a diametrically opposed definition of dharma as compared to their dissident nationalist counterparts. Through a relatively similar logic of comparative assessment, it further foregrounds the fundamental asymmetry that exists between Premchand's literary representations of women as compliant domestic subjects and those that portray them as rebel patriots of colonial North India. Juxtaposing several genres, including novels, short stories, letters, and journalistic writings to offer a reconsideration of Premchand's work, this book will interest scholars of peasant narratives, nationalist fiction, and gender studies.

Today I am joined on the podcast by Haunted Images!Haunted Images is the singular vision of Louth based producer and songwriter David O'Farrell-McGeary, who has previously been on the podcast under the david ofmg. Under this guise David creates beautiful, ethereal alt-rock shoegaze. Juxtaposing modern alt-metal influences Deftones and Deafheaven, against the left field ambience of Aphex Twin and shoegaze mainstays My Bloody Valentine, gives David his signature sound. One that, in equal parts, shimmers like a graceful celestial body, while at the same time with the dense wall of sound production, cascades over you like wave. Following the successful release of singles ‘if you want', ‘grey days', ‘sometimes' and the stunning ‘stay awake', which caught the attention of Hot Press, Golden Plec, Genuine Irish, Pure M Zine, Independent.ie, Ragged Cast and Rock N Load, David now returns with his self titled album, Haunted Images. This marks his largest and most realised body of work to date. An album that lyrically comes from a place of deep introspection and thematically addresses forgiveness in many different forms, an album that seeks to bring light to the impending darkness.I'll be going through the album with David, talking about his favourite songs on it, the stylistic changes from his previous work, the imagery created for the album by the extremely talented Chloe Harte, the creative balance on working on your own music and whole bunch more. The album is out tomorrow and there is also an album launch party at The Watchtower, McHughs in Drogheda on the 25th of April with Khidye as the supporting act!Original photograph for the artwork by Matt Gorman.haunted images on BandcampTickets for the album launch party Hosted on Acast.

Juxtaposing the raising of Lazarus with the conversion of St. Augustine to show how God can resurrect our spiritually dead family members.

The irony was not lost on me this week as two things job related happened. The first was the survey that suggested over half of us regret our career choice. That struck me as profoundly sad. Say whatever you want about work and work-life balance, but a lot of hours are spent in a lifetime grafting. Virtually everyone, at least at the start, has to work. Everyone of course should work because it's good for you. But to have a lifetime of regret is to not have really lived at all, or at least not to your full potential. Juxtaposing that was the surprise, to me anyway, that I had been here at Newstalk ZB for 25 years. A smaller surprise was on the same day, April 1st, Morning Report at Radio New Zealand was marking 50 years. I spent a short stint at Morning Report in moderately, although ultimately, I think, successful circumstances. Without word of a lie I have loved every day, of every week, of every month, of every year. Not just at Newstalk ZB, but the 44 years I have been in this game. Of course I had bad days. I had bad employers, I had ropy times and I've been sacked twice by morons, but I've never regretted picking doing what I do. Which is a small miracle, given I have never really been able to tell anyone with any clarity why I picked this game in the first place, other than it seemed appealing. I had no mentors or people I knew in media. As a kid I listened to the radio and thought that sounds fun. As it turns out, I was right. The other small saviour has been the fact that not only didn't I regret it, it worked out moderately well in terms of gainful employment, because at no stage in the past four decades have I been able to conjure up an alternative. I literally cannot think of anything else I would want to do. I would like to think though, and this goes to the survey, that if it hadn't gone well or I did regret it, I would have done something about it. Because life's big lesson is life is short. And if you aren't rolling with it, you are fighting it. And that's no fun and it wears you out. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Vanessa Stockard recently visited the podcast for the 3rd time!Vanessa Stockard was born in 1975 in Sydney and spent her formative years in a small country town in the Mid North Coast of New South Wales. At 12 she returned to Sydney as a boarder at Abbotsleigh. After graduating from the College of Fine Arts (COFA) Sydney in 1998 with a BFA, Stockard launched head first into the avant-garde art scene in the bohemian village of Glebe.Stockard is one of the most dangerous artists on the Australian, and by extension, international scene. Her ethereal works of art are a window into the soul of a talented and complex artist, one whose legacy is bound to resonate well past her generation. The existential nature of her painting viscerally questions our concepts of social relationships and reality.Twenty years of introspection and experimentation, ranging over a number of media, have forged Vanessa's style and vulcanised her craft, enabling her to reveal complex misdemeanours, while simultaneously demanding the viewer's self-reflection. She deals with isolation and sadness with intimate care and attention.Vanessa is unhindered by failure, always continuing the discovery of things previously unseen, revealing work that is fresh, unlaboured and penetrating. The deceptive everyday nature of her subject matter belies hidden depths of relationship, feeling and emotion. One could describe her process as absence of thought, a freedom of construct, not unlike the stream of consciousness associated with authors such as Hemmingway and Thomas Wolfe.If light and shade were students, she would be their master. This skill, combined with a naturally deft hand and a determined use of perspective, imbue her subjects with gravitas. The artist refers to set design elements that often alter and morph as her piece progresses. She has said she feels grounded from her ability to draw from the benign surrounds of familiar life, infusing these images with a meaning that yields a meditative satisfaction.Stockard's oeuvre features many pieces developed without any direct visual reference but rather from memory, often incorporating domestic pets such as cats and dogs. Juxtaposing the anthropomorphic nature these animals are given by our society, she infuses the personification of virtue and vice into the everyday canine and feline status quo of our pets. Cats with their fluffy comical exteriors glint with an instinctive urge to kill and cruelly torment their prey, dogs with their providence of happiness, loyalty and friendship are flung back onto Churchill's menacing metaphor for depression.The Kafkaesque mindset behind such works is reminiscent of the existentialist authors like Sartre and Camus. Absurdism appears with cake imagery and its relation to a childlike nostalgia for happiness which may never be real, but rather imaginary, unattainable and unachievable. It's been said “pain is inexhaustible, it's only people who get exhausted…”One can never “have it all”, to be both the artist and patron. To intrinsically understand those things around us that others overlook is what we want from our artists, our creatives. They give voice to the profound mystery of the world around us, surrounded as we are with consumerism, pointless greed, deceit and dissatisfaction. There's no pretension here in these paintings, just spontaneous insight and beauty. Some art is said to speak volumes, but these works are more like innocent and delicate poems, whispering untold truths with an economy of words.Something Rather Than Nothing Podcast

There are so many needs within the work of anti-trafficking and orphan care, but what happens when people that are engaging as helpers are actually doing harm. Ego, poor practice and a desire for appearances can corrupt organizations that purport to be doing good. As a practitioner and journalist working in Southeast Asia, Erin Foley has been around the block working in organizations and comes onto the show today to share some of what she's seen and learned doing missions and nonprofit work over the years. She also shares about some of the great organizations she's worked with and about her most recent project, the recently published book "Where They Belong" which chronicles the movement of family care in Cambodia.

In India, elite law firms offer a surprising oasis for women within a hostile, predominantly male industry. Less than 10 percent of the country's lawyers are female, but women in the most prestigious firms are significantly represented both at entry and partnership. Elite workspaces are notorious for being unfriendly to new actors, so what allows for aberration in certain workspaces? Drawing from observations and interviews with more than 130 elite professionals, Accidental Feminism: Gender Parity and Selective Mobility Among India's Professional Elite (Princeton UP, 2021) examines how a range of underlying mechanisms-gendered socialization and essentialism, family structures and dynamics, and firm and regulatory histories-afford certain professionals egalitarian outcomes that are not available to their local and global peers. Juxtaposing findings on the legal profession with those on elite consulting firms, Swethaa Ballakrishnen reveals that parity arises not from a commitment to create feminist organizations, but from structural factors that incidentally come together to do gender differently. Simultaneously, their research offers notes of caution: while conditional convergence may create equality in ways that more targeted endeavors fail to achieve, "accidental" developments are hard to replicate, and are, in this case, buttressed by embedded inequalities. Ballakrishnen examines whether gender parity produced without institutional sanction should still be considered feminist. In offering new ways to think about equality movements and outcomes, Accidental Feminism forces readers to critically consider the work of intention in progress narratives.

CLR Show 1964. Air Date September 10, 2024. Juxtaposing the free-for-all executive privilege ruling of the Supreme Court against the unhinged threats and behavior of Donald Trump, and it's no wonder most of the planet believes America may have lost its mind for even considering convicted felon Donald Trump an acceptable candidate for the presidency, much less one in strong contention for the position. But, despite the tight polls, Kamala's massive and consistent 15-point lead with women, coupled with the inefficient ground game established by the republicans in key swing states, may still lead to a Nixon-McGovern-1972-like victory for Kamala in November. Trump will attack viciously at tonight's debate; it's the only tool left in his quiver. And, by every indication, Kamala will make him pay for it. Stay tuned. 

Join us this week on The Trudge Report. Corey, Greg, Bill, and Shawn, get ready for college football with a season preview and week zero starting with the FSU v Georgia Tech game taking place in Ireland. We go over the new expanded 12 team playoff format and the disintegration of the Pac-12 and those teams being spread out into the other, now Power 4 conferences. Corey finally picks a college football team and it's no surprise that it rivals Greg's team. We also go into post MLB trade deadline and, entering the last month of the regular season, how the playoff race is shaking out. We go over our favorite teams and where they stand, and teams to watch out for. Predictions on NL and AL championships and ultimately our world series picks. We also spend a few minutes on reflection of Matthew Perry's death and the new story that has come out where they have criminally charged multiple people surrounding his camp at the time of his death, including his personal assistant, doctors, and others. We discuss how fame and money play an integral role in a high profile death such as this. Juxtaposing that with the everyday average Joe and Jane addict that dies from this disease including some personal experiences about friends of ours that we have lost. The recovery segment surrounds important topic of the desperate need for the addict and alcoholic to find a Power Greater than themselves. We agree, and most would, that this is the most important part of our recovery, and that without it, permanent sobriety is difficult, if not impossible. We also explain why it is so important that each individual person find this Power that is personal to them. How no one else can tell us what or who to believe in.Remember to please listen, download, and share on all of your listening platforms every Tuesday and you can watch episodes of Trudge Report on YouTube and Facebook later each week.Contact the Guys:Instagram: @trudgereportpodFacebook: Trudge ReportTikTok: trudgereportpodYouTube: @trudgereportpod

Juxtaposing the Torah portion Va'etchanan with Gabriel García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude reveals intriguing contrasts and parallels in their treatment of memory, tradition, and identity. In Va'etchanan, Moses implores the Israelites to remember their past experiences and adhere to the divine commandments as they prepare to enter the Promised Land. This act of remembrance is framed within a covenantal relationship, emphasizing a linear progression of faith and duty. Conversely, Márquez's novel presents a cyclical view of history through the Buendía family's multi-generational saga in Macondo, where characters are trapped in repetitive patterns of behavior and destiny. While Ve'etchanan underscores a forward-looking commitment to divine law and collective memory, One Hundred Years of Solitude reflects on how the past continually shapes and entraps individuals within a cycle of fate. Both works grapple with the power of memory and tradition, but Ve'etchanan offers a vision of renewal and adherence to sacred principles, whereas Márquez's narrative explores the inescapable and often burdensome nature of historical repetition.  This episode is sponsored by The Professional Centre.

Join the boys this week on Trudge Report as Corey spends most of the episode silent as he tries to recoup some ticket money on his phone. We restart the NBA playoffs discussion as we make some finals predictions and analysis as well as some talk on women's sports and the current superstars they have. Bill brings a great topic about Artificial Intelligence to the table and we have a discussion on the pros and cons of this emerged science.

In this  episode, we delve into the life and legacy of General Tomoyuki Yamashita, a towering figure in Pacific War history. Uncover his journey from Osugi village to the battlefield, where he led Japanese forces against General MacArthur in the Philippines. Learn about his transformation into "The Tiger of Malaya" and the fascinating events surrounding his infamous war crimes trial. Gather insights into Yamashita's personal encounters, including his time as a military attaché in Europe and his ideological battles that transformed him from a traditional military man to a modern warfare proponent. Follow his strenuous task of capturing the Malay Peninsula and British naval base at Singapore, which marked the beginning of an operation that changed the course of World War II. Transitioning from Yamashita's narrative, the episode explores the strategic significance of the Malay Peninsula and Singapore in Japan's World War II plans. Highlighting the myths surrounding the 15-inch naval guns at Singapore's naval base, the narrative unveils the reasons for the base's downfall despite being well-equipped. Juxtaposing the British and Japanese strategies, delve into the intelligence that Japan procured from Germany and the planning and ensuing invasion of the Malay Peninsula and Singapore under Colonel Masanobu Tsuji and General Yamashita. The episode winds up with an analysis of the invasive tactics employed by the Japanese and the subsequent devastating downfall of the British in Malaya and Singapore. In the concluding part, the episode lays bare the remarkable story of Yamashita's daring campaign in the Malaya peninsula during World War II. Get immersed in the heart of the action, from major battles to Yamashita's effective use of trickery, leading up to "The Fall of Singapore". Explore Yamashita's intriguing character, his confrontations with fellow Japanese, and the rapid downfall of "Invincible Britain". Travel through the significant moments of one of the major battles of World War II, as we detail the events leading up to the seizure of Singapore by over 4,000 Japanese troops led by the audacious Tomoyuki Yamashita. Understand the catastrophic aftermath of this defeat, from the atrocities against mainly ethnic Chinese civilians to the impending American invasion that would challenge Yamashita's hold over the conquered territories. This comprehensive historical analysis unveils Yamashita's military genius, the improbable odds triumphed by his troops, and the profound effects of this crushing battle. Join us on this gripping journey as we unravel the triumph and tragedies in the wake of the Fall of Singapore.

Juxtaposing and mixing the language of reality TV, documentaries, phone footage, animation, and high production aesthetics, she explores the potential of storytelling while amplifying reality through a strategy of magical realism and humour. She has been developing a shape-shifting practice of films, sculptures and immersive installations, composed with a subtle agility to question our contemporary society and its fractured identities, gender issues and ubiquitous dominance of digital technologies. Bennani's work has been shown at the Whitney Biennale, MoMA PS1, Art Dubai, The Vuitton Foundation in Paris, Public Art Fund, CLEARING and The Kitchen in New York. Her animated series, 2 Lizards, a collaboration with director Orian Barki, premiered on Instagram during Spring 2020 and was described by The New York Times as “hypnotic…deploying a blend of documentary structure and animation surrealism…both poignantly grounded in actual events and also soothingly fantastical” and its animated protagonists “art stars.” (Jon Caramanica, April 2020) https://www.instagram.com/meriembennani/http://meriembennani.comMeriem Bennani - Life on the CAPS (book): https://store.renaissancesociety.org/products/meriem-bennai-life-on-the-capsWe also requested Meriem to share with us some of her favorite things.Catch them all in our newsletter: https://putf.substack.com/The PUTF show is an interview series, dedicated to showcasing inspiring creatives from the PUTF community and beyond.

Could the man who once occupied the Oval Office be entangled in a financial web of his own making? Settle in as we peel back the layers on Donald Trump's latest escapades, starting with a financial hail Mary that's as controversial as the man himself. We sink our teeth into the peculiarities surrounding the $175 million bond posted in a New York civil fraud case, a move bolstered by a financier from the murkier waters of subprime auto lending. The enigmatic relationship between Trump and this secretive benefactor, coupled with their alleged non-acquaintance, casts a dubious light on this financial maneuver, making for a story stranger than fiction.Strap in for a rollercoaster ride through the tumultuous stock market saga of Trump Media and Technology Group. With numbers in a tailspin post-public filing, something doesn't quite compute when you balance their paltry revenue against staggering losses. We dissect the valuation perplexities and the baffling choice of a small-scale accounting firm for their financial audits, raising the stakes for investors riding the Truth Social hype. Juxtaposing this against the platform's user engagement, this chapter of Trump's narrative is a cautionary tale for those dazzled by big names and bigger promises.Turning the spotlight on Trump's relentless combativeness, we examine the fallout from his abrasive legal tactics and the toxicity that seems to follow in his wake. From the curious case of Alina Habba to the echo of lawsuits against former allies, we're not just reporting the news; we're digging into the implications of Trump's approach to power. The judicial system's reluctance to rein him in, despite his repeated encouragement of supporter-led harassment, paints a troubling portrait of disparity in accountability. Join us as we navigate this maze of intrigue and ask the tough questions about the balance of power within the justice system.Support the showSupport the show:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2003879/supportFollow our show's hosts on Twitter: twitter.com/@CoolTXchicktwitter.com/@Caroldedwinetwitter.com/taradublinrockstwitter.com/blackknight10ktwitter.com/@pardonpodFind Tara's book here:Taradublinrocks.comFind Ty's book here:Consequence of ChoiceSubscribe to Tara's substack:taradublin.substack.comSubscribe to Ty's substack:https://theworldasiseeit.substack.com/ Support Our Sponsor: Sheets & GigglesEucalyptus Sheets (Recommended):Sleep Mask (I use this every night)Eucalyptus Comfortor...

Buy Emerald Wounds: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/emerald-woundsJoyce Mansour was a Syrian Jewish exile from Egypt whose fierce, macabre, erotically charged works gave André Breton's Surrealist group a much-needed jolt after the ravages of the Second World War. Among new adherents, only Mansour wrote poems commensurate with those of Robert Desnos, René Char, Benjamin Pêret, and other poets from the movement's heyday.Emerald Wounds: Selected Poems by Joyce Mansour is a compact yet career-spanning, bilingual anthology of this incendiary poet. With a biographical introduction by translator Emilie Moorhouse, who was drawn to Mansour's tough, take-no-prisoners stance during the societal reckoning of the #MeToo movement, Emerald Wounds showcases the entire arc of her trajectory as a poet, from the at-once gothic and minimalist fragments of her first collection in 1953, Screams, to the serpentine power of her final poems of the 1980s. Juxtaposing the original French poems with their English translations, Mansour's voice surges forward uncensored and raw, communicating the frustrations, anger, and sadness of an intelligent, worldly woman who defies the constraints and oppression of a male-dominated society that sees women as superficial objects of desire rather than multidimensional, autonomous subjects. Mansour is a poet the world needs today. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Please Make Me Pretty, I Don't Want to Die (Princeton UP, 2022) explores tactility, sound, sensuality, and intimacy. Set across the four seasons of a year, these fresh and original poems by Tawanda Mulalu combine an inviting confessional voice and offbeat imagery, and offer an appealing mixture of seriousness and humor. The speaker of these poems probes romantic and interracial intimacy, the strangeness and difficulty of his experiences as a diasporic Black African in White America, his time working as a teacher's assistant in a third-grade classroom, and his ambivalent admiration for canonical poets who have influenced him, especially Sylvia Plath. Juxtaposing traditional forms such as sonnets and elegies with less orthodox interjections, such as prose-poem "prayers" and other meditations, the collection presents a poetic world both familiar and jarring--one in which history, the body, and poetry can collide in a single surprising turn of image: "The stars also suffer. Immense and dead, their gasses burn / distant like castanets of antebellum teeth. My open window / a synecdoche of country." Learn more about your ad choices.

Rose Parfitt is a Senior Lecturer in Law at the University of Kent and the author of The Process of International Legal Reproduction: Inequality, Historiography, Resistance (Cambridge University Press, 2019). That all states are free and equal under international law is axiomatic to the discipline. Yet even a brief look at the dynamics of the international order calls that axiom into question. Mobilizing fresh archival research and drawing on a tradition of unorthodox Marxist and anti-colonial scholarship, Rose Parfitt develops a new 'modular' legal historiography to make sense of the paradoxical relationship between sovereign equality and inequality. Juxtaposing a series of seemingly unrelated histories against one another, including a radical re-examination of the canonical story of Fascist Italy's invasion of Ethiopia, The Process of International Legal Reproduction exposes the conditional nature of the process through which international law creates and disciplines new states and their subjects. The result is a powerful critique of international law's role in establishing and perpetuating inequalities of wealth, power, and pleasure, accompanied by a call to attend more closely to the strategies of resistance that are generated in that process.
