Here at Autocrat, we quite often cover a lot of mythical beasts. Examples would include the Lernaean Hydra which Heracles and Iolaus dealt with, the sphinx tormenting Thebes, and the sea monster Cetus which Perseus rescued Andromeda from.However, how possible would some of these creatures really be? Take, for example, the griffin and the hippogriff. We know what species create these two, so could we see whether the number of chromosomes they have make them feasible?Well, on today's episode, we re-release episode 67 of Biopedia to answer this very question!Sources for this episode:Ewart, J.

Laia asks, placing her hands firmly on her knee.Ca: Els seus ulls busquen respostes que probablement només el seu germà pot oferir.En: Her eyes search for answers that probably only her brother can provide.Ca: Arnau sospira, apartant la mirada cap a les vistes espectaculars de Barcelona.En: Arnau sighs, averting his gaze to the spectacular views of Barcelona.Ca: No és fàcil mantenir secrets, i menys quan aquests secrets giren al voltant de la seva família.En: It's not easy to keep secrets, especially when these secrets revolve around his family.Ca: "Laia, no vull que et facis mal. Hi ha coses que és millor no saber."En: "Laia, I don't want you to get hurt. There are things that are better left unknown."Ca: "Jo mereixo saber la veritat sobre el papa", insisteix Laia, la seva veu plena d'una determinació que ha marxat de les seves paraules poques vegades.En: "I deserve to know the truth about dad," insists Laia, her voice full of a determination that has rarely left her words.Ca: La brisa de primavera fa onejar el seu cabell i l'aire porta el murmuri dels altres visitants al parc.En: The spring breeze makes her hair wave and the air carries the murmur of other visitors in the park.Ca: "Hi ha documents", confessa Arnau amb un nus a l'estómac.En: "There are documents," Arnau confesses with a knot in his stomach.Ca: "Sobre el passat del pare... abans que vingués a Barcelona."En: "About dad's past... before he came to Barcelona."Ca: Els ulls de Laia s'amplien.En: Laia's eyes widen.Ca: "Quins documents?

Cindy Ingram's love for art began early, influenced by Disney classics and a desire to become an animator. With a strong academic focus, Cindy pursued an art history degree and aimed to be a museum educator. However, the reality of museum jobs – limited opportunities and low pay – led her to teaching art in schools instead. Cindy started her own online business to support art teachers with resources, but in the midst of her career faced burnout, and her connection to creativity dwindled. She began to reassess her relationship with art, realizing it was no longer a joyful pursuit but a business obligation. Through introspection and therapy, Cindy found solace in creating art again, writing a memoir, Art is About Being. The book chronicles her struggles and the healing power of creativity, reaffirming that engagement with art can be a path to self-discovery and emotional resilience. Now, Cindy emphasizes the importance of art in her daily life, using it as a tool for expression, reflection, and connection with others.Buy Me a CoffeeCreativityFound.co.ukInstagram: @creativityfoundpodcastThreads: @creativityfoundpodcastFacebook: @creativityfoundpodcast and Creativity Found groupYouTube @creativityfoundpodcastResearched, edited and produced by Claire Waite BrownMusic: Day Trips by Ketsa Undercover / Ketsa Creative Commons License Free Music Archive - Ketsa - Day TripsArtworks: Emily Portnoi emilyportnoi.co.ukPhoto: Ella PalletBook your Podcast Startup Sanity Check here.

Mosaics are defined as a picture or pattern produced by arranging together small colored pieces of hard material, such as stone, tile, or glass, resulting in the creation of something often ornate and beautiful. Sometimes, mosaics tell the story of what was, what is, or what can be…. Each mosaic is uniquely different and yet shares a common history - simply created from something else. As I was putting together this podcast episode,  I couldn't help but think about our lives that resemble mosaics in that we set out to create a plan or pattern that is predictable, or so we'd like to think, like a ceramic, glass or stone object, when in actuality, it can often be quite different. Sometimes our life plan is shattered, and it takes strength, energy, and determination to keep moving forward to put the pieces back together to form a new life plan; each time we experience this manifesting into a new life plan, we build our resilience and become perhaps more strategic or smarter in putting pieces together, and sometimes, the circumstances make it harder than we could ever have anticipated… such circumstances are poverty and homelessness.  Piece by Piece is an employment-related social enterprise designed to support individuals who have experienced homelessness or economic insecurity. Participants create mosaic art, as well as small-scale housewares and large commissioned pieces,  and by doing that, earn income and master soft skills while beautifying Los Angeles; one of their mantras is: Recycled Art for a New Cycle of Life.

Genevieve Keeney-Vazquez, the president and CEO of the National Museum of Funeral History, interviews Bridget Caletka, a grief counselor with Mosaics of Mercy. During this conversation, they talk about the importance of face-to-face communication in a technology-driven society. From the stages of grief to the various forms of grief, Genevieve and Bridget explore the topic of grief and societal attitudes from it. Learn more about the museum at nmfh.org. Follow Mosaics of Mercy on Facebook and Instagram. Takeaways 1.) There are different types of counselors, such as psychologists and licensed professional counselors, who provide talk therapy and address mental health struggles. 2.) In a technology-driven society, face-to-face communication is becoming less common, leading to a loss of interpersonal connection and empathy. 3.) Grief is a natural response to loss and can take many forms, including the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the end of a relationship. 4.) The stages of grief, as described by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, include denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance, although they may not occur in a linear fashion. 5.) Grief is a universal experience, and it is important to recognize and support individuals who are grieving.

Inspired by the interplay of light and colour with geometric patterns, and the work of the great Catalan artist Gaudi, our guest Siobhan Allen creates multi-hued stained glass mosaics that express the sacredness and divinity inherent in the world around her. Previously a bodywork therapist specializing in massage and cranio-sacral therapy, Siobhan is entirely self-taught in the art of stained glass, bar a few evening classes. What began as a hobby gradually became her full time work in 2015 or 2016. Now from her home [studio?] in North Devon in the UK, Siobhan creates colourful stained glass pieces that are as inspiring as they are inspired.

In this conversation, Dr. Sandra Glahn and Dr. Lynn Cohick are joined by guest Jazmine Sánchez to discuss various art media on the Visual Museum of Women and Christianity website. They explore mosaics, frescoes, sculptures, and paintings, highlighting their historical significance and unique characteristics. Jazmine shares her favorite artists, including Giotto and Michelangelo, and discusses notable artworks such as the Scrovegni Chapel frescoes and the Pieta sculpture. The conversation also delves into the use of art in the early church, the symbolism of doors in art, and the depiction of Mary in different traditions.Key Takeaways: Different art media, such as mosaics, frescoes, sculptures, and paintings, offer unique insights into history, spirituality, and culture.Artists like Giotto and Michelangelo have made significant contributions to the world of art, with their works still admired and studied today.The use of art in the early church, including catacombs and altarpieces, served as a means of worship, storytelling, and identification for believers.Depictions of Mary and God the Father in art can vary based on periods and religious traditions.Art has the power to evoke emotions, create connections, and provide a sense of worship and spirituality. Visual Museum of Women in ChristianityThe purpose of this collaborative project is to create a curated, permanent visual exhibit of women in the history, ministry, and piety of early, Byzantine, and medieval Christianity that will be available online for researchers, educators, and interested laypersons.The goal of this multi-year project is to make the visual record of women in ministry and leadership available free of charge and unencumbered by permission requirements, and to include short teaching elements to guide the audience through the constitutive and pivotal role of women throughout Christian history. Together with the visual story, the accompanying narrative will make it possible for patrons to learn about women throughout history and across the globe and their unique contributions to the life and faith of the church…A history that remains mostly untold.Follow the Visual Museum on Social Media:Instagram: visualmuseum.galleryFacebook: visualmuseum.galleryTwitter: visual_museumTikTok: visualmuseum.galleryYouTube: @VisualMuseumEpisode Sponsor: The Alabaster Jar is brought to you by The Center for Women in Leadership, a newly formed 501©3 nonprofit organization whose purpose is to equip women in a context that is biblically rooted, theologically robust, and ethnically diverse to thrive as leaders in the academy and the Church.

In this episode we are chatting with Holly Beech, Communications Manager at the Idaho Office for Refugees (https://www.idahorefugees.org). In this conversation we learned why Idaho is known throughout the country as having one of the best refugee programs, why Idaho is involved with refugee settlement, and how we can best support these members of our community. This discussion convinced us that refugee support is an incredible opportunity to enrich our community with diversity and new cultures. We've noticed that there are many misconceptions about what the term “refugee” means, and that there's often confusion with the concept of immigration. According to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services website (https://www.uscis.gov/humanitarian/refugees-and-asylum/refugees), a refugee is a person of special humanitarian concern to the United States who can demonstrate that they were persecuted, or fear persecution, due to race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. Refugees are people who are in need of help when they are persecuted in their own countries, and they come to America seeking asylum, or protection. This does not include people who come to the United States illegally. We learned that determining where refugees go within the United States, and how many go to any given state, is a major effort. Idaho, come to find out, is one of the best organized and most helpful states to participate in the program. Holly did a wonderful job of walking us through all the details of how the system works and what we can do to support this community within our community. We are releasing this in anticipation of a particularly exciting event happening on February 29, 2024. The Idaho Office of Refugees annual Legislative Luncheon will take place from noon to 1:30 PM on the fourth floor of the State Capitol Rotunda. This is a FREE event for the community. We strongly encourage you to come and enjoy authentic food made by the Idaho refugee community and listen to some of their stories. We can't think of a better way to build community and truly become neighbors than by breaking bread together with people as they share their stories. To learn more about the Idaho Office for Refugees, visit their website at www.idahorefugees.org (https://www.idahorefugees.org). We also recommend you check out Holly's podcast, Mosaics (https://mosaics.castos.com), where she and her team interview Idaho refugees who share their amazing stories. With all that said, we bring you a conversation with Holly Beech from the Idaho Office for Refugees.

In this episode, Michael speaks with Lance Robinson, a Research Scientist studying Human Dimensions of Sustainable Resource Development at the Center for Northern Forest Ecosystem Research in Ontario, Canada. Lance has studied rangelands as social-ecological systems for many years, and has contributed to an alternative way of viewing them that departs from some of the traditional assumptions about commons and governance. In this conversation, Michael and Lance make specific reference to the design principles for community-based resource management developed by Elinor Ostrom in her famous book, Governing the Commons. Much of the conversation has to do with Ostrom's first principle, which stipulated that communities are aided by boundaries that delineate who is and who isn't a community member, and where the community's resources are. Lance's work unpacks the importance of boundaries in part through what he calls a complex landscape mosaic, which reflects the fact that in real systems, particularly in rangelands, there are many overlapping and shifting boundaries that are designed to help resource users adapt to resource scarcity, not to prevent the overuse of the commons, which is how they are usually interpreted. This conversation builds on a previous interview with Mark Moritz on pastoralists and open property, and you should check that interview out as well if this one interests you.   References: https://landscapewanderer.link/ https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Lance-Robinson Ostrom, Elinor. 1990.

Artist Rebecca Collins returns to The Spiritual Artist Podcast. Rebecca Collins is a mixed media artist working in mosaic, collage, watercolor and digital arts and was Chris' first podcast interview more than two year ago. Rebecca reminds listeners about the importance of slowing down and being present to the process both as a teacher and as an artist. As a teacher Rebecca is very aware of time; she wants to ensure that each student completes the process.  Rebecca has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer for more than 8 years and shares the importance of enjoying each day and recalls a lifetime of meeting deadlines and high productivity. As a greeting card illustrator, she produced a dozen/dozen card sets at one time. Learning to group her tasks as a mosaic artist.At this time, she has decided to focus more on her larger pieces that take longer to produce. Rebecca revisits her mantra, “The more you do, the more you can do.” She realizes that it's a true statement but it no longer serves her. We can choose new beliefs. As Spiritual Artists we constantly reexamine our beliefs. Rebecca notes that when we work slower, we increase our stamina and can work longer. Rebecca explains that by slowing her body she can slow down her thoughts. Mosaics are very therapeutic because they are like working a puzzle. Rebecca uses drawing to slow her mind and be present. She explains how to see by drawing upside down. It's learning to see what what is there and not what we think is there. She emphasizes the importance of seeing with fresh eyes. When receiving her 3-hour transfusions, Rebecca started a series of healthy cell drawings and self-portraits to chronicle her journey through healing. Rebecca teaches at the Creative Arts Center, Makers Connect Gallery and in her home studio.

Gigantic colourful sculptures tower in an artist's landscaped garden wonderland on Banks Peninsula. Built in 1881, a grand historic house in Akaroa welcomes visitors to wander its colourful terraces over-looking the harbour. It's home for the past couple of decades to artist and horticulturalist Josie Martin, who started this quirky project when she settled down after thirty art residencies all over the world. She first started mosaics here when she discovered a treasure trove of old china dumped in the grounds of her house, from before the days of rubbish collections. Today it's a Garden of International Significance. And, she tells Kathryn, it's in an on-going labour of love, bringing together her two loves, horticulture and art. She calls it The Giants House.

Significant to her story is her long term food addiction recovery. Becoming vegan thirty four years ago unfolded through learning the true impact of food on her health as well as strong intuitive guidance. Art is a passion discovered in childhood although lost for a time due to her all consuming food addiction. Facing this condition cleared the path back to her creativity. Reclaiming art was a life saver while engaged in the world of teen life problems on a daily basis. Since retirement she lives in gratitude for the gift of dedicating as much time as she desires to the creation of mosaics which brings joy to both her and so many others. Justine also enjoys filling her home with art created by others, loves time with her musician husband, Jay, spends time with friends and family, and cares for her two sweetheart cats on a daily basis. She also dedicates time to helping others with their food addiction recovery which gives back beyond measure. Her mosaic creations include wall pieces, table tops, and jewelry. You'll find she uses materials involving glass of all types, vintage gems, beads, vintage dishes and other ceramics. Her mosaics can be viewed and purchased on her Facebook page, “Mosaics by Justine.” She is also available at justinet58@gmail.com and Instagram, justinet58.

We started our visit to Mykonos with a trip to the island of Delos, and a visit to the ruins of the ancient Sacred City rumored to be the site of Artemis and Apollo's birth.  We continued on to Old Town, had an amazing lunch before heading back to the ship and savored an amazing sunset on the way out of the port!

She is sweet, and has a ‘cool' vibe about her. You can sense her spirituality, believing that the universe is at work. In fact, her album title is a mix of science and human nature within her art. Coming from a family with a science background, she shares a bit she has learned from her dad and brother. – Meet Chelsea Gilliland aka CHLSY Finding your sound as a band Healing and making music New Album ‘Quantum Entanglement' ‘Mosaics of the people we loved' Law of Attraction and Goal Setting ‘Making music that makes people feel less alone' – ‘Quantum Entanglement' out now! www.chlsymusic.com -- Use our code for 30% off your first year's membership with DistroKid. http://distrokid.com/vip/thesetup.

Bible Reading: 1 Corinthians 12:4-14; Revelation 7:9-10"Mom, there's so many beautiful things here!" Eliana exclaimed. She and her mom were visiting an art museum, and Eliana stood in awe of the different shapes, sizes, colors, and materials that made up the art displayed around every corner. But one particular piece stood out. "Is that painting sparkly?" asked Eliana.Mom smiled. "Kind of," she said. "It's actually not a painting. It's a mosaic. It sparkles because it's made of tiny pieces of colorful glass arranged together to make a picture.""Wow!" said Eliana. "I think we need a mosaic at home." "You know," said Mom. "You can make mosaics out of anything. You just need a canvas and lots of tiny items in the colors you want. We should make one together."And so they did. Once they got home, Eliana gathered small items from the craft bin in the colors she wanted, while Mom found a canvas from their supply cabinet. Soon, they were arranging the pieces on the canvas, making a picture of a tree.As they worked, Mom spoke. "This reminds me of church," she said as she dabbed some glue on a green button and pressed it to the canvas."Huh?" asked Eliana."I guess that was a little confusing," said Mom with a laugh. "Let me explain. You know how at church everyone has different talents and backgrounds and many people at our church come from cultures different from our own? That's how God designed His church--His family--to be. He wants His people to have all kinds of beautiful differences--just like all the random pieces that make up our mosaic. Together they make up a beautiful church that glorifies Him."Eliana nodded. "Mosaics are amazing because they are made up of lots of different pieces that create one big picture.""Exactly!" said Mom. "The canvas holds all the random pieces together. In the same way, as Christians, we gather together in all the amazing ways Jesus made us to worship Him and remember that He saved us through His death and resurrection. That's what unites us and makes us into God's beautiful mosaic." -Kandi ZellerHow About You?What are some of the different talents, backgrounds, and cultures in your church? God created us all so differently, and when we become Christians, each of us is also given different spiritual gifts to use in serving the church. God uses the differences He created in us to help us grow in Christ and glorify Him together--just like a beautiful mosaic. As Christians, we are united by Jesus, and through the amazing diversity of His family, He creates a picture of His love and goodness.Today's Key Verse:God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us. (NLT) (1 Corinthians 12:6)Today's Key Thought:The church is united around Jesus
