Marvel's First Family has returned to the big screen.....could the THIRD (or actually fourth if we're counting the Roger Corman version which never got a proper theatrical release) time be the charm?  Well it helps that they brought out the big guns: Matt Shankman (WandaVision) is directing and the all-star cast features Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, The Mandalorian) as Reed Richards otherwise known as Mr. Fantastic, Vaness Kirby (Mission Impossible Fallout, Napoleon) as Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn (A Quiet Place: Day One, Gladiator II) playing Johnny Storm/The Human Torch, and Emmy-winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Bear, Girls) as Ben Grimm otherwise known as Thing.  This is still very much a stand-alone story mostly separate from the MCU (which this is a part of) as the Fab Four are settled in New York City but on an alternative Earth.  And THIS Earth has some scary new visitors....the Silver Surfer (Julia Garner) has come calling declaring that GALACTUS (Ralph Ineson) is on his way to consume the planet....who can stop them??  Let's find out out if Producer Kevin Feige's latest big screen heroes are up to the task.....Host & Editor: Geoff GershonEditor: Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Covering the pivotal period from the mid-seventeenth century through the era of the French Revolution, Christy Pichichero's The Military Enlightenment: War and Culture in the French Empire from Louis XIV to Napoleon (Cornell University Press, 2018; paperback ed. 2020) is a fascinating interdisciplinary study that pushes us to rethink our ideas about both the military and the Enlightenment in and beyond a France that was a global, as well as a continental European imperial power. As Pichichero shows, the (long) eighteenth century holds the key to our understanding historical concepts and transformations that we tend to associate with later developments in military thought and practice, from conventions around "good" and "humane" conflict to ideas about community and civility between soldiers fighting together and on opposing sides. The book's five chapters explore a broad range of compelling events and sources, from the work of well known Enlightenment thinkers and authors such as Voltaire and Choderlos de Laclos, to military manuals and debates regarding how wars would and should be waged, how soldiers should be trained to think and act in battle. Now available in a new paperback edition, the book is a must-read for anyone interested in the longue durée of military culture and warfare, as well as those with an interest in all that the Enlightenment did and could mean.

In Part 3 of our Camp Hale series, host Christian Beckwith explores America's military mountaineering experiment during the pivotal winter of 1942–43. Following Second Lieutenant John McCown, the episode traces early training frustrations, the media frenzy that made the “mountain warriors” famous, and the disastrous Homestake Peak Maneuvers—an exercise so plagued by frostbite, blizzards, and failures it drew comparisons to Napoleon's retreat from Moscow. Interviews with Lance Blyth, David Little, and Sepp Scanlin provide behind-the-scenes insights into the Army's evolving mountain experiment and its cultural ripple effects that would later shape America's outdoor recreation boom. Highlights include: The recruitment push led by Minnie Dole, John Jay, and Deborah Bankart The birth of the 86th Mountain Infantry Regiment Special missions, including the Columbia Icefield Expedition and Studebaker's M29 Weasel Lessons from the Homestake Peak Maneuvers Resources & Bonus Content: christianbeckwith.com Sponsors: CiloGear: Premium alpine backpacks – cilogear.com (Code: rucksack).

Learning from Israel's Mistakes: A Cautionary Tale for ChristiansDiscover how the ancient Israelites' failures provide crucial spiritual lessons for modern believers. This powerful message explores how those who received God's blessings still faced judgment when they rebelled against Him—a timeless warning for Christians today.The teaching draws fascinating parallels between historical military disasters (Napoleon and Hitler's Russian invasions) and spiritual failures, illustrating how ignoring past mistakes leads to repeating them. Learn how Paul used Israel's wilderness journey to warn the Corinthian church about four specific sins: idolatry, sexual immorality, testing Christ, and grumbling.This biblical exploration reveals how the Israelites experienced spiritual privileges similar to Christian baptism and communion, yet most never reached the Promised Land due to their disobedience. The message challenges believers to examine areas where they might be taking God's grace for granted while continuing in sin.Key topics include:- Biblical warnings against spiritual complacency- The danger of small spiritual compromises- How idolatry and sexual immorality remain threats to modern Christians- The connection between grumbling and church division- God's faithfulness in providing escape from temptation- Finding victory over sin through ChristPerfect for anyone struggling with temptation, feeling spiritually complacent, or wanting to understand how Old Testament examples apply to New Testament living. This teaching balances sobering warnings with the hope of God's faithfulness, reminding us that Jesus has already conquered sin and empowers believers to overcome.Biblical foundation: 1 Corinthians 10:1-13, Numbers 25:9, Exodus 32Keywords: spiritual warfare, overcoming temptation, biblical warnings, Christian living, spiritual growth, 1 Corinthians study, Paul's teachings, idolatry today, sexual purity, church unity, God's faithfulness, Christian discipleship

In Episode 107 of Breaking History, Matt Ehret and Ghost pull back the curtain on the real power players behind global conflict, tracing a line from Napoleon's exile to modern color revolutions. They dig into how British intelligence, global banking interests, and puppet leaders have repeatedly used regime change, debt traps, and military alliances to reshape the world in their image. Ghost challenges the true motives behind the French Revolution, the Vietnam War, and even the founding of NATO, while Matt breaks down the shift from American nationalism to British-style imperialism post-WWII. Together, they dissect Kissinger's legacy, the role of private central banks, and the modern globalist war on sovereign states. With current events like Haiti, Israel, and Ukraine woven into historical patterns, this episode reveals how today's chaos is part of a centuries-old playbook. Packed with sharp historical analysis and blunt truth bombs, it's a must-listen for anyone ready to question everything they thought they knew about war, peace, and who really pulls the strings.

You can send me a text if you have a comment or questionThe Austrian pro war party is emboldened by the French defeat at Bailen.  By April 1809 Archduke Charles is leading the newly reformed Austrian army into Bavaria.Napoleon has made a brilliant response, quite unexpectedly.  Davout's 3rd Corps and his German allies show they can still defeat the Austrians.But during the course of this year the French suffer a major defeat while Napoleon is in command.  Europe has its collective gasp moment, until Napoleon reestablishes the natural order with the victory at Wagram.Czar Alexander launches an "attack" into Austrian Galicia, but even this has implications for Archduke Charles.Meanwhile, Wellington, seriously outnumbered by the French conducts a campaign worthy of the young Napoleon defeating first one then two French Marshals.  Wellington has learned a great deal, and this year he learns not to trust the Spanish, whose corruption is both colossal and self defeating.   Despite Spanish promises, the logistical situation constrains Wellington, forcing his retreat at the moment of victory.

Practicing Harp Happiness
What Makes Any Piece a “Harp Piece”? - PHH 218

Practicing Harp Happiness

Play Episode Listen Later Jul 21, 2025 29:31


Here's our question for today: what makes a piece of music a “harp piece”?  Does it have to have been originally written for harp? Or composed by a harpist? Or could any piece of music, no matter what instrument or instruments it was written for, be a harp piece if you play it on the harp? I happen to think that the third answer is the correct one. Mostly. Let me explain. If you play a piece on the harp, it has absolutely become a harp piece whether it started out that way or not. But that doesn't necessarily mean that it should have become a harp piece. Some pieces just don't work on the harp. Take the “1812 Overture,” for example. This piece was written by Tchaikovsky to commemorate Russia's victory over Napoleon. It's 15 minutes long, It requires a full symphony orchestra (minus a harp), an additional brass band, a bell carillon and a battery of cannons - yes, cannons. How could a single harp play a meaningful rendition of this monster work? You could play some of the themes from the piece. You could shout “BOOM” when the cannons are supposed to fire. No matter how hard we try, though, it will never really sound like the original. Okay, that's an extreme example. However, we harpists are known for borrowing music liberally from the piano repertoire. While that's a good idea in general - after all, the harp and piano have a lot in common - some piano pieces never make good harp pieces, even when the piece translates easily from piano to harp. Sometimes, something gets lost in the translation. So what makes a piece of music a harp piece? What are the essential qualities and the specific characteristics that identify a piece as being written for harp, or that, on the flip side, mark it as definitely not a harp piece? Today, we will talk about those characteristics and how you can use them to spot pieces that might, or might not, be good ones to transpose or arrange for harp. This information will also be very useful when you're playing someone else's arrangement, and I'll tell you why in just a minute.

New episode out now! We watched the little-known comedy mystery with a stacked cast Once Upon A Crime (1992). We cover how the film had a different plot than expected, decide that it took a long time to set up the actual mystery but thought it turned out well, felt it was often incredibly silly in a good way, and get into the full 1980s of it all, good and bad. We also talk about the various characters and how many of them seemed more like caricatures, think the actors all nailed the vibe, wondered how much improv was involved, and obviously loved the dog-heavy plot. Katy got her Belushis mixed up, Carrie did not think of cocaine at all, Maddy really wanted to gamble, and Mack explains things women do for fun. We also try to use Italian accents, fail to recognize a Napoleon reference, discuss what groups of straight men do for fun, and learn we are susceptible to a voicemail joke.

This episode originally aired on July 12, 2021.___The raft floated in the midst of the River Niemen. On it were two beautiful pavilions, one for the Emperor of the French and the other for the Czar and Autocrat of All the Russias. In the French tent, Napoleon Bonaparte argued with his foreign minister, Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand, over how harsh the peace terms with the defeated Russians should be. Talleyrand, a servant of every revolutionary government since 1789, was a snake in silk stockings, but he knew foreign policy better than anyone else in the emperor's entourage. He begged the emperor to treat Russia gently and put an end to fifteen years of war. But Napoleon, flush with the victory at Friedland earlier that year, was determined to humiliate Alexander I, and Talleyrand, ever the obedient servant in public, fell silent. What if Napoleon had heeded Talleyrand's advice in 1807 and treated the Russians with more respect? What would our world look like today if history had taken a different course? In this series of bonus episodes on “15-Minute History,” Joe and I will be sharing some of our favorite “What If?” scenarios from this series with you. Building on the theme of Season Four, learning from history, we hope to provide some lessons on how individuals shape the destinies of large groups and entire nations.

7/9/25 - St. Gaspar del Bufalo (1786–1837) was a Roman priest and founder of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood. Arrested and exiled for refusing to swear allegiance to Napoleon, Gaspar returned after years of imprisonment to a war-torn Italy, where he fearlessly preached missions in remote and lawless regions, often facing violence and death threats. He reached out to bandits, prisoners, and the spiritually abandoned, calling them to conversion through the saving power of Christ's Precious Blood. Known for his fiery sermons, unwavering loyalty to the Pope, and deep Marian devotion, St. Gaspar was a reformer who renewed the faith in one of the darkest periods of Italian history.

‘Our Lady of Kazan', a painting of the Virgin and Child, was discovered in the ashes of a fire in the Russian town of Kazan on 8th July, 1579. The icon quickly became associated with miracles after two blind men were said to have their sight restored by standing in front of it. The original was stolen in 1904, but the copies still represent one of Russia's most important pieces of religious art - credited by some with thwarting Napoleon's invasion of 1812. In this episode, Rebecca, Arion and Olly interrogate the reportage that continues to promote the ‘miracles' performed by the painting; reveal Hermann Goering's role in the fascinating 20th century history of the work; and recall a religious image of squirting milk that, once seen, cannot be unseen...
