Using the law to charge and imprison political opponents is a favorite tactic of dictators the world over. In an age of growing global authoritarianism, unscrupulous rulers are getting more strategic about their methods and sharing lessons learned. The fight to free political prisoners is one with moving goalposts for the human rights attorneys and advocates working hard behind the scenes. Jared Genser of Perseus Strategies and Caoilfhionn Gallagher of Doughty Street Chambers, both human rights lawyers, explain how these processes often play out in reality, and where governments frequently fall short. Diane Foley, founder of the James W. Foley Legacy Foundation, created and named for her journalist son in 2014 after his public beheading by ISIS, describes what motivated her to try and improve efforts to free hostages after her horrific experience. Mark Stephens, the founder of Howard Kennedy law firm in the UK, moderates the conversation. aspenideas.org

What does the Christmas promise of “peace on earth” mean in the face of human suffering, natural disasters, and other heartbreaks that are part of all our lives?Twenty years ago, the Indian Ocean tsunami claimed the lives of some 225,000 people, after battering the coastlines of India, Indonesia, Malysia, the Maldives, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Seychelles, Thailand, and Somalia.Tim Costello, then CEO of World Vision, was among the first to be on the ground in Sri Lanka, which was among the countries worst affected. He recounts being confronted with the mammoth scale of devastation on the ground and the tragedy of so many lives lost. Then we hear from former CPX-er Mark Stephens, now Lecturer in New Testament at Sydney Missionary Bible College, about what the Christmas promise of “peace on earth” could possibly mean in the face of untold human suffering – and what are the grounds of hope now and into the future.This is our last episode of Life & Faith for the year but we will be back in 2025.

Episode 10 is with Mark Stephens of Deep Rooted Wines based in Walker Bay, South Africa. Mark is a regenerative viticulturist-turned-winemaker and is a prominent figure in the Cape South Coast's new wave. The South Coasters - as they call themselves - are an exciting group of winemakers whose energy and enthusiasm resemble that of the Swartland revolution a number of years ago. Another one in this group whose name you might recognize from our book is Natasha Williams of Lelie van Saron. Mark is a new addition to our portfolio and he's unique in that he's one of our only producers who makes strictly zero added sulfur wines. This choice is a personal one for Mark as he's got a pretty strong sensitivity to sulfur, but he was fed up with going to natural wine fairs and being served unequivocally flawed wines and being told “it's ok, it's natural.” So he set out to make clean, low pH, sulfur-free wines under his own label. We've got two of his wines, a skin-contact Verdelho called “Touch Me” with a pretty unique label (keep listening to hear that story) and a textural Fumé Blanc. In this episode, you'll hear Mark's story of how he came to understand the connection between feeling good and zero sulfur. You'll also hear why he uses the term "wellness wine" when describing his wines, as well as why he decided to name his Verdelho "Touch Me"...  Hosted by Charlotte Alsaadi.

In the wake of the pandemic, we are increasingly immersed in a hybrid working environment. The remote work revolution that began in the early days of Covid has now morphed into hybrid work. This means that organizations have to be prepared to meet workers where they are, and that could be anywhere.  Work is now a thing we do, not a place we go, so employees need the ability to be productive no matter where they are. Since 98% of remote meetings have a remote participant joining, security needs to be at the forefront of organizations' agendas. On this episode of eXcellerate, Chris Poe and Mark Stephens discuss how security architecture must continue to evolve alongside the hybrid work landscape.  Press play to learn what hybrid work organizations need to focus on, why technology integration is so important, whether firewalls are still relevants today, and how organizations are dealing with the shortage of cybersecurity workers.  Stick around until the end to hear Mark define the hottest industry buzzwords. Are his definitions what you think of when you hear these terms? You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...

Dominic Raab is facing renewed allegations of bullying behaviour. In this episode we turn the clock back to the time he took out a 'confidentiality agreement' -which lawyers tell us is EXACTLY the same as an NDA; a non-disclosure agreement.

We hear from Mark Stephens, a solicitor, who shows us how NDAs are being used and abused in the corridors of power. And from Zelda Perkins - former personal assistant to Harvey Weinstein - who was herself silenced by an NDA for 23 years and is now campaigning to change the law to stop NDAs being used to cover up abusive or criminal behaviour.Her campaign is Can't Buy My Silence.

In this episode, I speak with Mark Stephens, the former chief public defender of Knoxville Tennessee. Tennessee public defense has been stuck in neutral, if not reverse for a long time. In fact, almost everything was established in the 90's and hasn't changed much since.   Rutherford county incarcerated approximately 48% of children referred to juvenile court in 2014, and the statewide average for juvenile incarceration is 5%. Today, we talk about two alarming reports that have been released discussing the representation of juvenile offenders in the state.   In Tennessee, public defenders are elected to 4 and 8-year terms. Mark also highlights how this unique system affects the levels of representation and the bottom line.    Overall, Mark leaves us with his ideas for a better system and the hope that the Tennessee public defense system will change for good.     Key Topics and Takeaways:   Mark's position in Tennessee public defense and how he got there. [6:28] Elected public defenders. [10:48] Public defender workloads and caseloads. [15:16] One of the biggest issues facing Tennessee public defense today. [20:10] Community outreach. [26:29] Holistic representation and public defense. [37:19] The average people going through the Tennessee indigent system. [41:06] Resources at a county level. [46:03]   Guest: Mark Stephens, Former Chief Defender of Knoxville Public Defense     Resources: ProPublica Report 1999 Spangenberg Group Report  Shelby County Juvenile System Report  Knoxville Public Defender Nashville Public Defender     Memorable Quotes:   “Children, for the most part, we have an opportunity to rehabilitate them.” (3:23, Hunter)   “Public defenders are paid the same that assistant district attorneys and district attorneys are paid, which is the way I think it ought to be.” (14:52, Mark)   “People generally don't care about the adults that are in the criminal justice system, because we've got this idea that they're all bad people and that they're all guilty.” (25:59, Mark)   “This state of crisis or chaos that a criminal charge brings in a person's life is also an opportunity for that person and that public defender to bring about change.” (38:12, Mark)   “I think the legislature has been shortsighted in terms of fully understanding the potential within the public defender office.” (47:32, Mark)   “People would disagree with me, but I think every aspect of the system, as I know it ought to be scrapped and redesigned.” (58:30, Mark)     Contact Hunter Parnell: hwparnell@publicdefenseless.com Instagram www.publicdefenseless.com

If there was one thing you think society should talk more about, what would it be?“We all know what it's like to be angry, sad, fearful, hurt, guilty, bored, frustrated etc. The problem is we often get stuck in these states. Most people have no idea on how to help people snap out of a negative state and flip the switch to a positive state.”________As we ride the rollercoaster of life, we realise that not every day will go to plan, and our positive state may change to a negative one, and vice versa. One minute we may be feeling happy, content, calm, energetic or excited and then something happens to change our state. We end up feeling stressed, frustrated, angry, sad or any one of a hundred other states. This is pretty normal. Imagine if more people knew how to help someone change their state. This is the area of expertise of my guest today, author, meditation and hypnosis expert, Mark Stephens. Mark has transformed many lives, including elite athletes, war survivors, CEOs, Celebrities and thousands of everyday people. Mark created the ground-breaking programs; Think Slim, Think Calm, Think Sleep and Think Quit and the Mind Free app. He's the author of several books, the latest being Mind Free which is aimed at guiding the reader through mindful self-hynosis. Mark is an irreverent and facinatlng man and I was looking forward to this interview for a while.

Racism, Incarceration, and Yoga with Ayla BenjaminRacism is deeply embedded in the histories of yoga even as it offers visions and practices of liberation. From delimiting caste systems in ancient-to-modern societies to contemporary racist ideologies and social and cultural forces, race matters, is a source of profound harm predicated upon fundamental lies about the nature of human beings. It is also highly correlated with incarceration, especially in the United States, which leads the world in imprisoning people, with one-fifth of the world's incarcerated population.Ayla Benjamin, executive director of Boundless Freedom, is a dynamic activist and social movement leader working to end mass incarceration while brining yoga, meditation, and other practices of liberation and empowerment into prisons. In this episode, Mark Stephens and Ayla Benjamin discuss racism in yoga and society, and what many people are doing about it. Highlights of the conversation include:Ayla Benjamin's activist path from her roots in Minneapolis to her initial work in bringing yoga into California prisons.The experience of teaching yoga in prisons and insights into how one might best prepare for that service.How yoga yoga teachers can best develop the cultural competence for making yoga more accessible and meaningful in diverse communities.How Ayla's experience living near the location of George Floyd's murder and their involvement in related peaceful protests impacted her views about the work to be done.The work of Boundless Freedom.

The artist Maurizio Cattelan is being sued over the authorship of some of his most famous works. Art critic Louisa Buck and lawyer Mark Stephens join Front Row to discuss one of the oldest questions in art – how much does the artist need to involved in the making of their artwork to be considered the creator of that work? Plus, singer, stage performer, and actor, Camille O'Sullivan, performs for us live in the studio, and describes the inspiration behind her acclaimed show, Camille O'Sullivan Sings Cave – singing interpretations of Nick Cave's work in her own theatrical style – and finally taking it back on tour after lockdown silenced stages. Presenter: Elle Osili-Wood

Sexuality and communication are as common as they are complex. While ancient-to-modern yoga texts and teachings provide various views on sex and morals, matters of sexual desire, power, transference, trauma, and communication are often as problematic in yoga classes as the are in the larger world. A generation of young people have grown up in confused cultures where "no means no" is all too often ignored, "yes means yes" can lead to unwanted interaction, and basic values of loving kindness and dignity get lost in questions of consent, which can obscure deeper feelings, desires, and needs for safety, joy, and well being.Tune in here to learn more about sexuality and communication in yoga and life.Episode Highlights:A short introductory talk by Mark Stephens on sexuality and yoga.A fascinating exchange with Jennifer Hellwarth and Joshua Searle-White based on classes they've co-taught at Allegheny College on Sexuality, Relationships, and Consent.Conversation about sexual awareness, interaction in classes, power dynamics, and the importance of respect and kindness.Discussion of touch in yoga and life.

This week I'm happy to speak with my friend Mark Stephens. Mark has been a police officer for 13 years, first in Phoenix and now in Nashville. Mark explains how he first became aware of systemic racism in American society and law, and the process of becoming more educated about it. He tells stories from his years on the job that demonstrate the power of empathy and treating all people with dignity and respect. I also ask him about gun culture, deescalation tactics, and mediation—which he's recently taken up. He's currently writing a memoir tentatively titled “Lessons Learned from Tragedy: A Misfit Cop's Journey to Awakening.” Here's a link to the books of Tim Wise, which Mark recommends: amazon.com/Tim-J-Wise/e/B001ITVYTI This ad-free podcast is supported by Sam's Torode's books, including “Living from the Soul: The 7 Spiritual Principles of Ralph Waldo Emerson,” available at samtorode.com.

For the fourth installment in our healing series, meditation expert and hypnotherapist Mark Stephens joins host Lindsay Tucker to talk about breaking habits for a healthier, happier lifestyle through meditation and hypnosis.  Show notes: Check out more meditations and hypnosis practices on Mark's Mindfree app.
