We're switching things up for this episode of Cinebuds and talking about … the theater!OK, sure, Dori and Kpolly talk about theaters all the time in the context of movies. For this installment, they're talking about live theater being brought to movie theaters to give audiences the chance to experience live theater while sitting in a movie theater.Milwaukee Film has done this in the past and recently resuscitated the practice via National Theatre Live, which for 15+ years has delivered the best of British theatre to movie houses around the world. We're talking instantly recognizable names and faces like Benedict Cumberbatch, Michael Sheen, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Andrew Scott treading the boards in productions of Hamlet, Frankenstein and Vanya.The brilliant Scott gets the spotlight treatment in this episode of Cinebuds, as our movie-loving duo applies some of that adoration to Scott's astounding performance in Vanya. The stage play sees him take on every character in a way few actors can while utilizing subtle shifts in tone, expression and body language, with a little help from creative propwork.You can hear all about Vanya and Scott's sizable undertaking in the full episode of Cinebuds, and find more information on National Theatre Live at the Oriental via the Milwaukee Film website.Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Co.

This podcast episode, hosted by Kikee Doma Bhutia from the University of Tartu, features journalist and analyst Aadil Brar discussing India's foreign policy amidst rising global tensions. The conversation focuses on India's balancing act between the US, China, and its own strategic autonomy in a contested Indo-Pacific region. Key topics include India's evolving role as a middle power, responding to China's assertiveness along the India-China border and in the Indo-Pacific, while maintaining its traditional non-alignment stance. India's foreign policy is at a crossroads, shaped by five tense years since the Galwan Valley clash with China. Despite rounds of talks, the border remains uneasy and trust is scarce. Today, China's assertiveness drives nearly every major Indian strategic decision-from military deployments and Quad partnerships to concerns over Beijing's mega-dams on the Brahmaputra. Meanwhile, the US sees India as a key counterweight to China in the Indo-Pacific, but Delhi is determined to maintain its independence and avoid being boxed into alliances. As India watches China's moves from the Himalayas to Taiwan, the question is clear: Are we witnessing a true pivot in Indian foreign policy, or simply a sharp recalibration to meet new realities? The answer will shape Asia's balance of power for years to come. The podcast was brought to you by host Dr. Kikee Doma Bhutia a Research Fellow and India Coordinator at the Asia Centre, University of Tartu, Estonia. Her current research combines folkloristics, international relations and Asian studies, focusing on the role of religion and culture in times of crisis, national and regional identities, and geopolitics conflict between India and China. The podcast guest speaker Aadil Brar is a journalist and international affairs analyst based in Taipei, currently a Reporter at TaiwanPlus News. His reporting focuses on international security, U.S.-China relations, and East Asian security. Previously, he was a China news reporter for Newsweek and has contributed to the BBC World Service, The Print India, and National Geographic. In 2023, he was a Taiwan Ministry of Foreign Affairs Fellow and a visiting scholar at National Chengchi University in Taipei. Brar holds a B.A. in Anthropology from the University of British Columbia and an MSc. in International Politics from the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. ​ Learn more about your ad choices.

En este año 2025 empezamos a conmemorar el bicentenario de los hechos que culminaron en la independencia de la República Oriental del Uruguay. Es una oportunidad ideal para repasar aquel proceso y reflexionar sobre los orígenes y la esencia de nuestra nación. Acá En Perspectiva estamos realizando una serie de entrevistas y discusiones. En esta ocasión les proponemos un abordaje diferente. Por lo general, nos concentrarnos en los grandes acontecimientos políticos, económicos o militares y en las élites que dirigían a aquel Estado naciente. Pero al mismo tiempo estaba el día a día de la gente, con sus costumbres, cierta alimentación, el trabajo, los entretenimientos o las enfermedades. Conversamos En Perspectiva con el profesor Enrique Méndez Vives que decidió poner el foco allí, en el día a día. ¿Cómo las personas que habitaban esta tierra en la década de 1820? ¿Cómo se vinculaban? ¿Qué relación había entre el Uruguay rural y urbano de hace 200 años? ¿Cómo eran las casas y las construcciones de aquel tiempo? ¿Y el comercio? ¿Qué decía la prensa uruguaya hace dos siglos? El título de su libro es: Vida Cotidiana: Uruguay hace 200 años y fue editado recientemente por Banda Oriental.

Aunque nos identifica el título de uno de los sones montunos clásicos de la música popular cubana, comenzaremos con una muestra de ciertas melodías que, a comienzos de los años 60, de alguna manera consiguieron suavizar la banda sonora de aquellos tiempos de cambios radicales. Martha Strada, el violinista urugüayo Federico Britos y el trombonista Pucho Escalante a la cabeza del Noneto Cubano de Jazz, en un salto de casi cuatro décadas, darán paso a sonidos más contemporáneos. Manolo Miyares en saxo, Oliver Valdés en drums, Néstor del Prado en bajo eléctrico y Tony Rodríguez en piano, desde una presentación en las tablas del legendario "Amadeo Roldán", nos recuerdan cómo sonaba "M.O.N.T". Algunas maravillas de la música popular cubana. Entre ellas sobresalió sin dudas la maestría de "Los Papines" en la rumba y el guaguancó. En la frecuencia musical de Cubakústica unos minutos con el gran Miguelito Cuni junto al conjunto de sus grandes éxitos: "Chappotin y sus estrellas". Música cubana por el mundo a la manera del trío mexicano "Los Panchos", fundado en el Nueva York del año 1944. Gil, Navarro y Avilés, en sus grabaciones para la etiqueta norteamericana Columbia, incluyeron una buena cantidad de sones, guarachas y boleros de autores cubanos. Hoy les escucharemos: "El guarapo y la melcocha"; "Parece que va a llover" y "Quiéreme mucho". El estilo de la vedette Josephine Baker y la antológica señal de la CMQ RadioCentro nos traen el esplendor artístico de La Habana de la primera mitad de los años 50 y algo de la obra del malogrado pianista y compositor Orlando de la Rosa. A continuación algunos de los éxitos iniciales de Blanca Rosa Gil que el sello Modiner colocaba allá por 1960 en los tocadiscos cubanos. En la despedida Carlos Embale, el trío La Rosa y el Trío Oriental cantan en grande algunas de las creaciones del auténtico Rey de la Guaracha: Ñico Saquito.

Ce vendredi 9 mai marque le Jour de l'Europe. Paris et Varsovie vont signé à Nancy le premier traité franco-polonais, près d'un an après son annonce par le gouvernement polonais. Le "bouclier oriental" commence ainsi a prendre forme le long de la frontière avec la Russie et la Biélorussie. Adrien Sarlat s'est rendu pour RTL à la lisière de l'enclave de Kaliningrad, où les premiers tronçons de travaux ont déjà été réalisés, avec l'ambition de faire de cette frontière la plus sécurisée d'Europe.Distribué par Audiomeans.

Questions about what to say to someone who believes in “healing frequencies” in fabrics and music, whether Christians should use Oriental medicine that's based on the concepts of qi, and how to respond to someone who says he's sending “good vibes” your way.   What would you say to someone who believes in “healing frequencies” in fabrics and music and claims there is biblical support for it? What are your thoughts on Christians using Oriental medicine specialists, who base their techniques on the concepts of qi, to diagnose and treat allergies? How would you respond to someone who sends “good vibes” your way when you ask for prayers?

Cet investissement de 10 milliards de zlotys (2,3 milliards d'euros) le long de la frontière avec la Russie et la Biélorussie doit servir à consolider la frontière est de l'Europe pour la rendre imperméable à toute tentative d'invasion venue de Moscou ou de Minsk.

Three viral videos are circulating on social media of women making racially charged statements. The women in question are also of three different races, or mixes thereof, one being “white,” another Indian-Fijian, and the last “Chinese.” In all three cases the women use the word “nigger” or “niggah” to describe a person with dark skin. The context is also not provided, as all three videos are under 60 seconds. Based on what is known, one of the videos may even be a stunt to make money, with the woman in question having generated nearly three-quarters of a million dollars in a few days to “help protect my family.”The reaction is the same either way: the entitled use the videos as evidence of their victimhood, while others use them to justify their own raw bigotry. Between these extremes is the question of how the “white supremacist” side deals with a Chinese girl saying something they ultimately agree with, or how the “stop asian hate” side deals with an asian harassing blacks. These extremes neglect three other important details: what does “white” or “black” even mean, why does this take precedent over nearly everything else with one exception in the racial hierarchy, and what the origin of the word “nigger” even is. In case of the latter, the term comes from the Spanish “negro” and Latin “niger.” It was adopted initially to describe the skin of Africans. It later was turned into a slur, and due to accents and dialects became “nigger.” Still later the term changed again for the same reasons into “niggah,” which describes a behavior rather than a physical characteristic. The reality is despite there being a subset of truly raw supremacists in any society, average people tend to dislike a person who is loud, obnoxious, immoral, and disrespectful. This reality also holds that racial slurs, feelings of supremacy, and the like are not only universal, but are not, and should never be, illegal in the United States.

Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.

En el Radar Empresarial de hoy aparece Volkswagen. El fabricante automovilístico alemán entregó 150.000 coches eléctricos en los primeros tres meses, más del doble que en el mismo periodo del año anterior. ¿Cómo ha podido sobreponerse la compañía a un entorno tan hostil con los aranceles del 25% por parte de la Administración Trump? Pues según el propio CEO de la compañía, Oliver Blume, al diario Bild, “Nuestra ofensiva de productos única ha sido bien recibida por el mercado". Además de los coches eléctricos, la marca ha conseguido vender un 29% más en todos sus vehículos de propulsión. Volkswagen, como todo los fabricantes automovilísticos europeos, se enfrenta a unos duros gravámenes estadounidenses pero Blume ya advirtió en octubre del año pasado que las marcas de coches europeas se enfrentaban a unas regulaciones muy duras por parte de la Unión Europea. Las cifras en Estados Unidos también han sido bastante buenas: el Grupo, que incluye Audi y Porsche además de la marca principal Volkswagen, vendió un 4,4% más de vehículos en el primer trimestre. Volkswagen entregó 2,13 millones de vehículos en todo el mundo, un 1,4% más que hace un año. En Europa Occidental, las ventas de Volkswagen aumentaron un 3% y en Europa Central y Oriental un 7,9%. La marca ha registrado estas ventas ya que se han hecho antes de la aplicación de los aranceles. Está claro que el foco de las preocupaciones ha cambiado totalmente. Audi, la filial del Grupo automovilístico, anunció el miércoles que congelaba las entregas de sus coches en Estados Unidos. De esta forma Audi se asegura que estos vehículos no suban de precio de una manera exponencial. Un portavoz del fabricante informó que más de 37.000 vehículos ya se encuentran en Estados Unidos, lo que hará que el precio de estos coches no sean afectados por los aranceles. Y es que estos gravámenes afectaron mucho al sector auto europeo al principio. Este fenómeno de coches sin entregar y congelación de ventas en Estados Unidos no solo es con Volkswagen. Tres ejecutivos de fabricantes automovilísticos de los sectores logístico y automotriz contaron a Financial Times, en los últimos días, algunos fabricantes han comenzado a retrasar la entrada de sus productos a Estados Unidos, para intentar paliar los efectos de la guerra comercial que ha dado de lleno a los coches.

En Ucrania las víctimas civiles han aumentado un 50% en solo un mes, según los observadores de derechos humanos. El hambre alcanza a 7,7 millones de personas en Sudán del Sur. Las órdenes de cierre de escuelas en Jerusalén Oriental son ilegales.

Subscriber-only episodeSend us a textThe dusty streets of Tombstone, Arizona became the stage for one of the Wild West's most dramatic confrontations when two seasoned gamblers faced off outside the Oriental Saloon on February 25, 1881. What began as heated words escalated into a deadly showdown that would forever link the names of Luke Short and Charlie Storms in frontier history.Against the opulent backdrop of the Oriental Saloon—Tombstone's premier gambling establishment with its 28 chandeliers and Brussels carpets—tensions had been brewing for days. Legendary lawman Bat Masterson had recently arrived in town at the request of his friend Wyatt Earp to help protect their gambling interests from rival factions. Little did he know he would soon witness a deadly encounter between two men he knew well.Charlie Storms was already infamous throughout the West—a skilled gambler with a volatile temperament who boasted loudly about his fighting prowess. Luke Short, though younger at just 27, had quickly established himself in Tombstone's gambling scene as someone not to be trifled with. When Storms took offense at being called an "old, gray-bearded son of a bitch," what might have remained a verbal spat spiraled toward its inevitable violent conclusion.The confrontation culminated in a lightning-fast exchange of gunfire on Tombstone's main street. Short proved the quicker draw, placing a fatal bullet through Storms' heart. In the frontier justice system of the day, the local judge quickly ruled the killing self-defense, finding no grounds for murder charges against Short. Meanwhile, Storms was laid to rest in Boot Hill Cemetery, leaving behind two widows in different states—a testament to the complex lives these frontier gamblers led.This fascinating episode transports you back to the authentic Wild West, where personal honor, quick reflexes, and skill with firearms often determined who lived to see another sunset. Through meticulous historical research, you'll experience the sights, sounds, and tensions of a frontier town where fortune-hunters, lawmen, and outlaws crossed paths daily, and where a heated word could transform a friendly card game into a date with Boot Hill.

En tiempos de Las Cruzadas no solo dos formas de entender la religión y la civilización se enfrentaron durante casi dos siglos en el Mediterráneo Oriental, también dos estilos de hacer la guerra desarrollaron todo su potencial para mostrarnos el rostro más oscuro del ser humano. A través de dos figuras fundamentales de aquellas guerras medievales, el Rey cristiano de Jerusalén Balduino IV y el Sultán de Siria y Egipto Saladino, vamos a conocer hoy la historia de aquellos terribles, y a la vez luminosos años, sin perder de vista la característica principal de cualquier guerra de entonces o de hoy, el horror cebado sobre todo en los más débiles. Hoy, junto a José Antonio Márquez Periano de Héroes de Guerra 2.0 nos lanzamos en formato crossover hasta Tierra Santa, en lo que podríamos llamar una auténtica cruzada radiofónica con el fin de recordar que la guerra, más allá de la épica caballeresca de la época, no tiene nada de romántico.

Oliver Goldsmith (born Nov. 10, 1730, Kilkenny West, County Westmeath, Ire.—died April 4, 1774, London) was an Anglo-Irish essayist, poet, novelist, dramatist, and eccentric, made famous by such works as the series of essays The Citizen of the World, or, Letters from a Chinese Philosopher (1762), the poem The Deserted Village (1770), the novel The Vicar of Wakefield (1766), and the play She Stoops to Conquer (1773).Goldsmith was the son of an Anglo-Irish clergyman, the Rev. Charles Goldsmith, curate in charge of Kilkenny West, County Westmeath. At about the time of his birth, the family moved into a substantial house at nearby Lissoy, where Oliver spent his childhood. Much has been recorded concerning his youth, his unhappy years as an undergraduate at Trinity College, Dublin, where he received the B.A. degree in February 1749, and his many misadventures before he left Ireland in the autumn of 1752 to study in the medical school at Edinburgh. His father was now dead, but several of his relations had undertaken to support him in his pursuit of a medical degree. Later on, in London, he came to be known as Dr. Goldsmith—Doctor being the courtesy title for one who held the Bachelor of Medicine—but he took no degree while at Edinburgh nor, so far as anyone knows, during the two-year period when, despite his meagre funds, which were eventually exhausted, he somehow managed to make his way through Europe. The first period of his life ended with his arrival in London, bedraggled and penniless, early in 1756.Goldsmith's rise from total obscurity was a matter of only a few years. He worked as an apothecary's assistant, school usher, physician, and as a hack writer—reviewing, translating, and compiling. Much of his work was for Ralph Griffiths's Monthly Review. It remains amazing that this young Irish vagabond, unknown, uncouth, unlearned, and unreliable, was yet able within a few years to climb from obscurity to mix with aristocrats and the intellectual elite of London. Such a rise was possible because Goldsmith had one quality, soon noticed by booksellers and the public, that his fellow literary hacks did not possess—the gift of a graceful, lively, and readable style. His rise began with the Enquiry into the Present State of Polite Learning in Europe (1759), a minor work. Soon he emerged as an essayist, in The Bee and other periodicals, and above all in his Chinese Letters. These essays were first published in the journal The Public Ledger and were collected as The Citizen of the World in 1762. The same year brought his Life of Richard Nash, of Bath, Esq. Already Goldsmith was acquiring those distinguished and often helpful friends whom he alternately annoyed and amused, shocked and charmed—Samuel Johnson, Sir Joshua Reynolds, Thomas Percy, David Garrick, Edmund Burke, and James Boswell. The obscure drudge of 1759 became in 1764 one of the nine founder-members of the famous Club, a select body, including Reynolds, Johnson, and Burke, which met weekly for supper and talk. Goldsmith could now afford to live more comfortably, but his extravagance continually ran him into debt, and he was forced to undertake more hack work. He thus produced histories of England and of ancient Rome and Greece, biographies, verse anthologies, translations, and works of popular science. These were mainly compilations of works by other authors, which Goldsmith then distilled and enlivened by his own gift for fine writing. Some of these makeshift compilations went on being reprinted well into the 19th century, however.By 1762 Goldsmith had established himself as an essayist with his Citizen of the World, in which he used the device of satirizing Western society through the eyes of an Oriental visitor to London. By 1764 he had won a reputation as a poet with The Traveller, the first work to which he put his name. It embodied both his memories of tramping through Europe and his political ideas. In 1770 he confirmed that reputation with the more famous Deserted Village, which contains charming vignettes of rural life while denouncing the evictions of the country poor at the hands of wealthy landowners. In 1766 Goldsmith revealed himself as a novelist with The Vicar of Wakefield (written in 1762), a portrait of village life whose idealization of the countryside, sentimental moralizing, and melodramatic incidents are underlain by a sharp but good-natured irony. In 1768 Goldsmith turned to the theatre with The Good Natur'd Man, which was followed in 1773 by the much more effective She Stoops to Conquer, which was immediately successful. This play has outlived almost all other English-language comedies from the early 18th to the late 19th century by virtue of its broadly farcical horseplay and vivid, humorous characterizations.During his last decade Goldsmith's conversational encounters with Johnson and others, his foolishness, and his wit were preserved in Boswell's Life of Samuel Johnson. Goldsmith eventually became deeply embroiled in mounting debts despite his considerable earnings as an author, though, and after a short illness in the spring of 1774 he died.-bio via Britannica This is a public episode.

This book discusses hagiographic, historiographical, hymnological, and theological sources that contributed to the formation of the sacred picture of the physical as well as metaphysical Jerusalem in the literature of two Eastern Christian denominations, East and West Syrians. Popa analyses the question of Syrian beliefs about the Holy City, their interaction with holy places, and how they travelled in the Holy Land. He also explores how they imagined and reflected the theology of this itinerary through literature in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, set alongside a well-defined local tradition that was at times at odds with Jerusalem. Even though the image of Jerusalem as a land of sacred spaces is unanimously accepted in the history of Christianity, there were also various competing positions and attitudes. This often promoted the attempt at mitigating and replacing Jerusalem's sacred centrality to the Christian experience with local sacred heritage, which is also explored in this study. Popa argues that despite this rhetoric of artificial boundaries, the general picture epitomises a fluid and animated intersection of Syriac Christians with the Holy City especially in the medieval era and the subsequent period, through a standardised process of pilgrimage, well-integrated in the custom of advanced Christian life and monastic canon. The Making of Syriac Jerusalem (Routledge, 2023) is suitable for students and scholars working on the history, literature, and theology of Syriac Christianity in the late antique and medieval periods. Catalin-Stefan Popa is Research Professor in Church History at the Romanian Academy in Bucharest. He holds his Ph.D. from Georg August University of Göttingen, Germany (2016). In 2021 he received the venia legendi (habilitation) at Karl Franzens University of Graz, Austria. He published articles, and edited volumes on Syriac and Oriental ecclesiastical history, exegesis, and literature, including the monograph Gīwargīs I. (660–680). Ostsyrische Christologie in frühislamischer Zeit (Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz Verlag, 2016). He is the editor-in-chief and founder of The Syriac Annals of Romanian Academy (SARA).

Start Your Transformation Now In this episode of Transform Your Life From the Inside Out, Jim Fortin launches a new series, Insider Transformation Secrets, where former students from the Transformational Coaching Program (TCP) share their breakthroughs and experiences. Joining Jim is Dr. Anne White, a doctor of acupuncture and Oriental medicine, who shares how she overcame 20 years of financial struggles and limiting beliefs to transform her life.  Anne opens up about how subconscious identity shaped her financial reality and how TCP helped her uncover deep-seated blocks she didn't even know existed. From struggling with money to tripling her income, Anne explains how shifting subconscious beliefs allowed her to reach new levels of success, confidence, and fulfillment.  If you've ever felt stuck in repeating patterns or struggled to break through invisible barriers, this episode offers invaluable insights into how deep transformation happens—and how you can apply these principles to your own life.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Breaking Through Money Blocks (03:30): How Anne identified and resolved the subconscious patterns that kept her financially stuck.  The Power of Subconscious Identity (06:21): Why limiting beliefs operate beneath the surface and how to uncover them.  Fear of Judgment & Success (22:43): How fear holds people back from stepping into their full potential—and how Anne conquered it.  The Role of Values in Transformation (18:18): Why identifying your subconscious values is crucial to making lasting change.  Healing, Fertility, and Energy (31:31): How Anne helps women overcome fear and stress to increase fertility and transform their health.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  The transformation you seek starts from within. By uncovering hidden beliefs, shifting subconscious identities, and stepping into your authentic power, you can create the life you desire. The key is to recognize that any external struggle is a reflection of an internal pattern—and when you change the inside, the outside follows.  Mentioned Resources: Connect with Dr. Annie White: Website: DoctorAnnieWhite.com Email: support@doctoranniewhite.com YouTube: @DoctorAnnieWhite Want to join my Be Do Have® Insiders and access my Secret Podcast?
