Sophia Maier ist Journalistin und Dokumentarfilmerin. Sie berichtet aus den Kriegs- und Krisengebieten der Welt, spricht mit den Tätern, aber vor allem dokumentiert sie das Leid der Opfer. Gerade ist ihr Buch “Herz aus Stacheldraht. Eine Kriegsreporterin über verlorene Menschlichkeit und die Doppelmoral des Westens” erschienen und genau darüber spricht sie mit Wolfgang. Die beiden schauen auf das, was oft jenseits der Wahrnehmung Europas auch heute noch in griechischen Flüchtlingslagern, in Afghanistan, dem Libanon und Palästina passiert. Und sie sprechen über Sophia Maiers bewusste Wahl, mittlerweile als freie Journalistin zu arbeiten – und wie ein gewisser Norbert Blüm sie in ihrem Schaffen bestärkt hat.

Sometimes a dog looks calm, but is that what's really happening? Or could it be learned helplessness? Join me as I dive into this listener question and unpack the nuances between the two.Can I touch you? A pilot study comparing consensual and non-consensual human-dog touch interactionshttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168159125000589"Choice and consent are critical welfare elements, especially in interactions between humans and animals. Dogs incorporated in therapeutic settings (therapy dogs) may encounter human touch interactions where they have limited control over their circumstances. The present study examined how forced and free-choice touch treatments during interaction with humans influenced the behaviour of therapy dogs and hypothesized that therapy dogs would display a higher frequency of stress-related behaviours during forced in comparison to free-choice touch treatment. "Old problem, new toolsOne of the psychologists who discovered learned helplessness returns to the topic to pinpoint the phenomenon's neurobiological underpinnings.https://www.apa.org/monitor/2009/10/helplessness"This is the illusion of control at the level of neurochemistry," Maier said.Taken together, the findings suggest that in the face of any stressor, the DRN activates the body's ancient stress responses, but if that stressor turns out to be controllable, the vMPC steps in and calms the DRN's response. "It's like the forebrain is saying, 'Cool it, brain stem, we have the situation under control,'" Maier said.Learned Helplessness Training Article by Nicole Wildehttps://wildewmn.wordpress.com/2019/01/09/learned-helplessness/For full transcripts, go to the audio episode on CreatingGreatGroomingDogs.comFor more info on all of my classes etc, go to https://link.content360.io/CreatingGreatGroomingDogsYou can also listen to this episode as a podcast on my website or anywhere you listen to podcasts.For more information about my classes-The full diploma programMaster Groomer Behavior Specialist(MGBS) diploma programShorter courses-Modern Behavior & Handling for GroomersGroom S.M.A.R.T.Want to support the show?

本期节目,我们以斯坦福跨性别生物学教授琼·拉夫加登的著作《进化的彩虹》为起点,一起探索生物世界里那些“非模板”的性别角色和广泛存在的同性性行为。为什么在进化中看似“不利于”繁殖的同性性行为没有被淘汰?它仅仅是“意外”还是隐藏着不为人知的进化优势?我们还会将目光投向人类本身,回顾从备受争议的“同性恋基因”Xq28研究,到近年来大规模的全基因组关联分析(GWAS),科学是如何一步步揭示性取向的复杂性的。当我们试图用简单的模板去框定复杂的生命时,这个模板本身才是问题所在。⏰ 时间轴00:26 《进化的彩虹》,开启一场关于生物多样性、性别与性的科学探讨。06:48 打破性别模板:从雄性可变雌性的小丑鱼,到“爸爸怀孕”的海马,再到拥有“假阴茎”的雌性鬣狗,见识自然界中颠覆想象的性别角色。16:21 人类的性别光谱:Facebook上的56种性别选项是什么?聊聊间性人群体在“二元论”社会中所面临的困境。21:05 动物界的同性性行为:以倭黑猩猩和日本猕猴为例,看同性间的亲密行为如何成为化解矛盾、巩固联盟,甚至只是为了“Have Fun”的社交方式。30:04 同性恋的进化优势?黑天鹅的雄性配对会共同“偷蛋”育雏,其后代存活率竟远高于异性家庭。33:24 “同性恋基因”为何存在:探讨适应性假说、基因多效性以及“叔叔假说”,揭示同性恋可能带来的隐性繁殖优势。40:12 科学如何研究同性恋:回顾从1993年备受争议的X染色体“同性恋基因”研究,到2019年近50万人的大型GWAS分析,科学认知发生了怎样的变化?46:59 最终的思考:我们总是试图寻找某个“致病基因”,这是否源于一种想把“非模板”病理化的倾向?也许,多样性本身就是答案。故事征集正在听节目的你是否有过性别认同的艰难时刻呢?你与同性朋友是否有超越友谊的联结呢?如果你愿意与我们分享你的故事,欢迎在shownotes中填写问卷给我们投稿。

Podle zjištění Evropské komise některé velké české zemědělské podniky před sedmi lety neoprávněně inkasovaly podporu pojištění, která náležela jen podnikům malým a středním. Proč v Česku k takovým pochybením dochází? Jaké to bude mít důsledky? A jak mohou na Česko dopadnout změny zemědělských dotací, které chystá EU? Tomáš Pancíř se zeptal ekonoma Tomáše Maiera z České zemědělské univerzity.Všechny díly podcastu Dvacet minut Radiožurnálu můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

Decía el escritor e historiador francés, Prosper Mérimée, que de la historia solo le interesaba lo anecdótico y a Ximena Maier le pasa lo mismo. Prefiere fijarse en el detalle de un cuadro, o en cualquier objeto concreto, para entender el significado de la obra en su conjunto. En esta ocasión, conoceremos la larga lista de anécdotas que hay detrás del azulejo de Fortuny. Se le conoce como el azulejo de Fortuny aunque es una pieza de arte nazarí, porque fue él quien lo "rescato" del olvido.
"Yeah, join the club of people who feel inadequate," says Dana Jeri Maier, a cartoonist and author of the graphic book on creativity Skip to the Fun Parts.This incredible artist is the author of Skip to the Fun Parts: Cartoons and Complaints About the Creative Process. It's one of the best books on creativity because it deals with doubt, it deals with jealousy, it deals with ideas, it deals with perfectionism. Dana is a hilarious cartoonist and you should pick up a Front Runner and also a copy of Skip to the Fun Parts.I've long wanted to be a cartoonist. I know there's no perfect job, but I love the idea of creating something funny and whimsical and not having to talk to as many people as being a biographer entails.Dana, Dana, Dana, is a contributor to the New Yorker Daily Shouts and the creator behind the cartoon series The Worried Well. She has illustrated for The Phillips Collection, the DC Public Library, Politics and Prose, and Museum Hack. She's into improv and she lives in DC with her two cats and man husband.We talk about her influences, voice and style, how she doesn't trust anyone with a neat desk, bad ideas, jealousy, and a lot more.

Otto Maier is a retreat leader with Tandava Retreats and the Head of Integration at FIVE. Through his private practice, _Soul & Psyche_, he supports individuals in navigating both ecstatic and traumatic states of consciousness by blending Depth Psychology, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic work, Non-Pathologizing frameworks, and the ongoing decolonization of the modern psyche. Otto's integrative approach to healing and psychedelic work has been translated into educational programs for fellow therapists and guides, adapted into training curricula across the psychedelic field, and is currently being applied in research on 5-MeO-DMT. His work centers on honoring the full range of human experience—not as something to fix, but something to be in a deep and reverent relationship with. --- Enrol in the Visionary Medicines Program: https://www.caiyudakiora.com/visionary-medicines Join the Newsletter & Access the Free 21 Page eBook: https://www.caiyudakiora.com/newsletter --- TOPICS WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE:

Tierisch menschlich - Der Podcast mit Hundeprofi Martin Rütter und Katharina Adick
In dieser intensiven Podcastfolge sprechen Martin und Katharina mit der beeindruckenden Journalistin und Kriegsreporterin Sophia Maier. Sie berichtet über Menschlichkeit im Ausnahmezustand, Recherchen in Kriegsgebieten, Anfeindungen von Rechts und den seelischen Preis, den sie für ihre Arbeit zahlen musste. Es geht um verzerrte Debatten, investigative Undercover-Arbeit unter Pseudo-Heilern, politische Versäumnisse – und immer wieder um die Frage, wie man bei all dem Hoffnung bewahrt. Ein Gespräch über Mitgefühl, Rückgrat und Verantwortung – und warum man manchmal mitten im Chaos Yoga machen muss, um nicht den Verstand zu verlieren.

Dive into the extraordinary story of Marie and Mildred Maier, the original Doublemint Twins, whose encounter with an alien signal shook Chicago and exposed a shadowy government cover-up. On November 28, 1954, during a live WGN radio broadcast, the sisters recorded eerie, high-speed tones—described as a coded message resembling Jingle Bells—after host Jim Mills invited extraterrestrials to respond. What followed was a web of deception involving the CIA, fake Air Force officers, and a relentless UFO skeptic, Dr. Leon Davidson, who uncovered the truth.Explore the Maier's journey from advertising fame as Wrigley's Doublemint Twins to accidental UFO hunters. Their WGN recording, detailed in a rare 1955 Journal of Space Flight article, caught the CIA's attention, leading to a covert operation to seize the tape. Posing as Air Force officers, CIA agents George O. Forrest and Dewelt Walker visited the sisters, claiming the signal was mere Morse code from a U.S. radio station. Was it?Enter Dr. Leon Davidson, a Los Alamos scientist who believed UFOs were a CIA-orchestrated psychological warfare tactic. In 1957, Davidson contacted the Maiers, exposing inconsistencies in the CIA's story and accusing the agency of fabricating UFO sightings to manipulate public perception during the Cold War. His dogged pursuit revealed a deeper conspiracy. The CIA's 1997 report, The CIA's Role in the Study of UFOs, 1947-90, later admitted mishandling the case, confirming Davidson's suspicions of agency involvement.Set against the backdrop of 1954's UFO frenzy, this episode uncovers a time when Cold War paranoia, public obsession with flying saucers, and government secrecy collided. The Maier sisters' story is a microcosm of a nation grappling with the unknown. Why did the CIA go to such lengths to bury a single tape? Was the sisters' recording evidence of extraterrestrial contact, or part of a larger psychological operation?https://www.mydarkpath.com/73-doublemint-twins-vs-the-ciaRead MF Thomas' novels Like Clockwork https://amzn.to/417lOzyArcade https://amzn.to/4aTpisxA Sickness in Time https://amzn.to/41apSPKSeeing by Moonlight ...

In this episode, we chat with Alistair Cragg, coach of the highly successful Puma Elite Running team based in the Research Triangle of North Carolina. Cragg was a 3-time Irish Olympian with a lifetime best of 13:03 for 5000 meters. His wife and co-coach, Amy Hastings Cragg, represented the U.S. in the 2016 Olympic Marathon after winning the Olympic Marathon Trials that year. In February, 2024, Puma runner Fiona O'Keeffe won the Marathon Trials in Orlando in her very first marathon (she qualified with a fast half-marathon time. In early 2025, Puma runners continued to excel on the roads. At the USA Half Marathon Championships in Atlanta, both Taylor Roe and Alex Maier took the individual titles. Roe subsequently ran an eye-popping 49:53 in the Cherry Blossom 10-Mile, while Maier won the Dusseldorf Marathon in 2:08:33.Meanwhile O'Keeffe has healed from the injury that sidelined her at the Paris Olympics, and is training hard again. In our conversation with Alistair Cragg, he said that he could see her getting down to 2:15 in the marathon.Podcast segments include:Introduction to Alistair Cragg01:26Life as a Co-Coach and Family Man04:41Building the Puma Elite Running Team06:10Spotlight on Fiona O'Keeffe12:16Challenges at the Paris Olympics19:05The Future of Puma Athletes25:31Fiona's Journey and Team Dynamics27:38Success of Male Athletes in Dusseldorf28:45Alex Maier's Potential and Training Philosophy31:27The Impact of Shoe Technology on Performance36:07Balancing Training and Injury Prevention39:56Training Philosophy and Building Strength46:25The State of Distance Running49:44Puma is now claiming to have the world's fastest running shoe.
