Hammer's The Evil of Frankenstein is the only film financed by Universal Pictures.

Note that this is from a video essay published on YouTube here.For over a year, I've been helping people send aid to Gaza via cryptocurrency because traditional banking systems have failed Palestinians. PayPal and GoFundMe freeze accounts, banks block transfers, and those that go through can take weeks or months. Cryptocurrency offers instant, censorship-resistant transfers that offer higher guarantees.This comprehensive guide covers three methods for sending crypto (SimpleSwap, Revolut, and zkP2P), how to avoid tax complications when fundraising, critical safety tips to prevent irreversible mistakes, and everything you need to know about wallets, networks, and the OTC desk system in Gaza.

Today, we're putting The Tonearm's needle on Graham St John, a cultural anthropologist and Senior Research Fellow at the University of Huddersfield in the UK.Graham has spent decades studying transformational events, psychedelic culture, and electronic dance music scenes. He's written ten books, and his latest is Strange Attractor: The Hallucinatory Life of Terence McKenna, published by MIT Press. McKenna was the 20th century's psychedelic renaissance man, a stand-up philosopher who became a sampled voice on rave tracks and a herald of consciousness expansion.Graham spent years tracking down letters, interviewing over 80 people, and sifting through archives to capture McKenna's life, not to canonize or condemn him, but to understand how this rogue scholar became both hero and controversy in equal measure.We talk about the challenge of writing a biography when your subject was known for embellishing stories, and why distinguishing fact from fiction in McKenna's "hallucinatory life" matters.–Dig DeeperVisit Graham St. John's website at EdgecentralGraham St. John - Senior Research Fellow at University of HuddersfieldPurchase Strange Attractor: The Hallucinatory Life of Terence McKenna from MIT Press or BookshopLos Angeles Review of Books review of Strange AttractorLucid News review - "Genius and Delusion in Terence McKenna's Life"McKenna Academy of Natural Philosophy - Founded and led by Dennis McKennaPurdue University - Betsy Gordon Psychoactive Substances Research Collection - Contains McKenna archive materials donated by Dennis McKenna in 2013Klea McKenna's archival project at TerenceMcKenna.comDig into this episode's complete show notes at podcast.thetonearm.com–• Did you enjoy this episode?

Today, we're putting The Tonearm's needle on Graham St John, a cultural anthropologist and Senior Research Fellow at the University of Huddersfield in the UK.Graham has spent decades studying transformational events, psychedelic culture, and electronic dance music scenes. He's written ten books, and his latest is Strange Attractor: The Hallucinatory Life of Terence McKenna, published by MIT Press. McKenna was the 20th century's psychedelic renaissance man, a stand-up philosopher who became a sampled voice on rave tracks and a herald of consciousness expansion.Graham spent years tracking down letters, interviewing over 80 people, and sifting through archives to capture McKenna's life, not to canonize or condemn him, but to understand how this rogue scholar became both hero and controversy in equal measure.We talk about the challenge of writing a biography when your subject was known for embellishing stories, and why distinguishing fact from fiction in McKenna's "hallucinatory life" matters.–Dig DeeperVisit Graham St. John's website at EdgecentralGraham St. John - Senior Research Fellow at University of HuddersfieldPurchase Strange Attractor: The Hallucinatory Life of Terence McKenna from MIT Press or BookshopLos Angeles Review of Books review of Strange AttractorLucid News review - "Genius and Delusion in Terence McKenna's Life"McKenna Academy of Natural Philosophy - Founded and led by Dennis McKennaPurdue University - Betsy Gordon Psychoactive Substances Research Collection - Contains McKenna archive materials donated by Dennis McKenna in 2013Klea McKenna's archival project at TerenceMcKenna.comDig into this episode's complete show notes at podcast.thetonearm.com–• Did you enjoy this episode?

fWotD Episode 3151: Battle of Bronkhorstspruit Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 20 December 2025, is Battle of Bronkhorstspruit.The battle of Bronkhorstspruit was the first major engagement of the First Boer War. It took place by the Bronkhorstspruit river, near the town of Bronkhorstspruit, Transvaal, on 20 December 1880. Threatened by the growing numbers of militant Boers in the Pretoria region, the British recalled the 94th Regiment of Foot, which had several companies garrisoned in towns and villages across the wider area. The regiment's commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Philip Robert Anstruther, led a 34-wagon column consisting of roughly 250 men on a 188-mile (303 km) journey from Lydenburg back to Pretoria. A similar-sized Boer commando force, led by Francois Gerhardus Joubert, was ordered to intercept and stop the British.Despite several warnings of the threat of attack, the British travelled largely unprepared for combat, and the many wagons they travelled with slowed their progress significantly. On 20 December, 24 days after receiving the order to return, Anstruther's column was confronted by the Boers, who demanded under truce that the British stop their march. Anstruther refused, and the Boers attacked while the British soldiers were still preparing. The British took heavy casualties and surrendered after about 15 minutes; their surviving men were captured. Anstruther was badly wounded and died of his injuries a few days later.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:12 UTC on Saturday, 20 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Battle of Bronkhorstspruit on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Kendra.

The episode opens with reflections on the show's history, including each guest's first appearance on the podcast and the versions of iOS that were current at the time—highlighting just how much Apple's ecosystem (and the show itself) has evolved over the years. From there, the panel transitions into this week's Apple news and updates, including visionOS 26.2, which introduces a new Travel Mode designed for use in cars, trains, and buses, as well as iOS 26.3 beta, which continues Apple's push to make switching between Android and iPhone easier than ever. The group discusses real-world experiences with the Android-to-iPhone transfer process, notification forwarding to non-Apple wearables, and early impressions of the beta. The discussion continues with iOS 26.2, now publicly released, emphasizing its many security fixes, multitasking improvements on iPad, AirDrop security enhancements, Apple Music and Podcasts updates, HomePod stability improvements (or lack thereof), and new customization options like Liquid Glass transparency controls. On the Mac side, the panel dives into macOS 26.2, with notable improvements in system stability for some users, plus new camera features like Edge Light, updated reactions controls, and enhancements to apps like Freeform and Apple News. The episode wraps with a look ahead to MacStock, including a call for new presenters, followed by heartfelt thanks to listeners and contributors who've helped make 400 episodes possible. Topics and Links Here we are 400 episodes!. We look back to the very first time appearance of our panelists on the show and how Apple evolved over the years.

En este episodio de atareao con Linux te quiero contar una de mis grandes obsesiones: cómo mantener mis imágenes Docker lo más ligeras y seguras posible sin que eso me penalice cuando tengo que "ensuciarme las manos" dentro de un contenedor.Si me sigues desde hace tiempo, ya sabes que siempre busco reducir la superficie de ataque de mis despliegues. Cuanto menos software innecesario tenga una imagen, menos vulnerabilidades. Pero claro, esto tiene un problema evidente: cuando entras en un contenedor basado en una imagen minimalista, te encuentras con que no tienes ni un editor de texto, ni un buscador de archivos, ni nada que te facilite la vida.Para solucionar esto, he actualizado una imagen Docker que es mi auténtica "navaja suiza". En lugar de engordar mis imágenes de producción, utilizo este contenedor especializado que conecto a mis volúmenes cuando necesito gestionar datos, organizar archivos o realizar tareas de mantenimiento.He reconstruido esta herramienta sobre Alpine 3.23 por su ligereza extrema. Pero lo potente es lo que lleva dentro, un ecosistema centrado en herramientas escritas en Rust que son increíblemente rápidas:Shell y Prompt: He sustituido la clásica ash por Fish, para tener una shell interactiva y amigable, junto a Starship para un indicador visual ultra rápido.Productividad: Uso herramientas que reinventan los clásicos: lsd para ver archivos con iconos, bat para leer con resaltado de sintaxis, y fd junto a ripgrep para buscar cualquier cosa en milisegundos.Gestión y Edición: Para moverme por el sistema uso yazi, que es un gestor de archivos para terminal rapidísimo, y por supuesto Neovim para cualquier edición profesional.Mi arma secreta (rnr): He incluido rnr para renombrar archivos de forma masiva usando expresiones regulares, algo vital para organizar mis bibliotecas de series y películas.En este episodio te explico por qué me resulta mucho más cómodo utilizar volúmenes Docker en lugar de mapear directorios del host. Te cuento cómo esta práctica me facilitó la vida al migrar a Dockge y cómo gestiono mis datos multimedia de forma eficiente.Para que tú también puedas usarlo, te comparto el script que utilizo para levantar este contenedor de forma efímera e interactiva:Con este comando, el contenedor se destruye al salir, manteniendo mi sistema limpio y mis procesos gestionados correctamente gracias al flag --init.Más información y enlaces en las notas del episodio

Welcome back to the 80s. We love our listeners! When we started this podcast six years ago, we didn't know what to expect. We were just hoping there were at least a few 80s music fans who would find our page and give us a chance. Since then we've discovered there are Welcome to the Boomtown fans in all 50 states (and Washington DC) and at least 134 countries. So, in appreciation of our listeners around the world we've once again, turned this episode over to you. Thanks to everyone who sent us a request. We couldn't include them all in this episode, so look for Part III in the future.A shout out to those of you who have been with us since the beginning and welcome to our new listeners. As always, thanks to the people who helped us put this together: Alan (for all our artwork), DJ Phil B (for the technical stuff) and David Baerwald and David Ricketts, also known as David + David, for their amazing album which inspired the title of our podcast.Please tell all your friends about us and follow this page so you know when new podcasts are available. You can also follow us on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Bluesky, Mastodon, Threads, and X.Songs chosen by our listeners.

Join Seb and Erin for a fascinating exploration into the art of face reading. In this episode, Erin shares her expertise in reading facial features, micro-expressions, and body language to understand personality traits, emotional patterns, and life experiences. Discover how the distance between your eyebrows reveals your relationship with authority, why the size and shape of your mouth indicates social tendencies, and how ear placement shows whether you're a conformist or independent thinker. Erin explains that every facial feature—from eye depth to nose shape, from lip fullness to ear angle—tells part of your unique story. We explore: - The difference between macro and micro expressions - How facial features evolve with life experiences - Reading faces beneath makeup and styling choices - The connection between physical features and personality traits - How AI-generated faces differ from real human expressions - Practical applications for understanding yourself and others Whether you're curious about this ancient practice or looking to deepen your understanding of non-verbal communication, this episode offers both entertainment and insight into the walking stories we all carry on our faces.

1142. This week, we look at the history of the phrase "pride and prejudice," which was used frequently before Jane Austen's 1813 novel. Then, we look at whether Parson Brown from “Winter Wonderland” was a real person, and why his name is sometimes replaced with a “circus clown.” Links to Get One Month Free of the Grammar Girl Patreon (different links for different levels)Order of the Snail ($1/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/687E4Order of the Aardvark ($5/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/07205Keeper of the Commas ($10/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/50A0BGuardian of the Grammary ($25/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/949F7
