This road trip novel is set in the early twentieth century and follows the experiences of an aristocratic New Englander and her father as they travel by automobile from Minneapolis to Seattle. She is wooed and won by a noble but simple commoner she meets along the way. Lewis is at his usual wryly humorous self, poking fun at the upper class and treating the common people only slightly better.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Part VII of our teaching series, Joyful Living
How does encountering Jesus change the way we view our brokenness?
1 Kings 10:1-14, 22-24 & Ecclesiastes 2:1-11 We're pressing pause on our Mark series for our summer series of listener favorites! This episode comes from a much-loved series from our listeners called the Solomon series. If you'd like to start at the beginning, simply go to episode 277. Today we begin to comprehend just how wealthy Solomon was. With his wealth and his wisdom, Solomon tells us anything he saw and wanted, he got. This might sound incredible, but Solomon learned a very valuable lesson: everything is meaningless without God. Things or fame—none of that will satisfy us fully, because what we are really searching for is God. The Creator of our souls is the One who satisfies us. The kids will hear examples of this so they can begin to understand how this applies to their own lives.

This final volume of the History of the Papacy begins with the rise of Martin Luther and with the final years of Leo X's papacy. Leo never really grappled with Luther's calls for reform and his successors, Adrian VI and Clement VII, were equally ineffectual in preventing the establishment of the Protestant Church in Germany. The political sky darkened as the rivalry between Francis I and Charles V spilled over the Alps into Italy. The army of Charles V, unpaid, ill-fed, and mutinous moved relentlessly southward until Rome itself fell defenseless. Bishop Creighton writes: "Brutalized by hardships, by poverty, by suffering; of different nations, Germans, Spaniards, Italians; they were held together by no common bond save that of boundless cupidity, and wild desire." The sack of Rome lasted eight days, but it was followed by nine months of occupation, violence and extortion.

This week Beau concludes his chat all about the reign of Henry VIII; recapping the fall of Thomas Cromwell, the Anne of Cleves debacle, then the even more disastrous Catherine Howard debacle, and Henry's final years with Catherine Parr and his ongoing troubles with both Scotland, France and Rome.
A story about a mysterious oriental figure who pursues a British politician to London, where he wreaks havoc with his powers of hypnosis and shape-shifting, Marsh's novel is of a piece with other sensational turn-of-the-century fictions such as Stoker's Dracula, George du Maurier's Trilby, and Sax Rohmer's Fu Manchu novels. Like Dracula and many of the sensation novels pioneered by Wilkie Collins and others in the 1860s, The Beetle is narrated from the perspectives of multiple characters, a technique used in many late nineteenth-century novels (those of Wilkie Collins and Stoker, for example) to create suspense.Richard Marsh was the pseudonym of the British author born Richard Bernard Heldmann.

"It is quite generally recognized that psychology has remained in the semi-mythological, semi-scholastic period longer than most attempts at scientific formulization. For a long time it has been the "spook science" per se, and the imagination, now analyzed by M. Ribot in such a masterly manner, has been one of the most persistent, apparently real, though very indefinite, of psychological spooks. Whereas people have been accustomed to speak of the imagination as an entity sui generis, as a lofty something found only in long-haired, wild-eyed "geniuses," constituting indeed the center of a cult, our author, Prometheus-like, has brought it down from the heavens, and has clearly shown that imagination is a function of mind common to all men in some degree, and that it is shown in as highly developed form in commercial leaders and practical inventors as in the most bizarre of romantic idealists. The only difference is that the manifestation is not the same." - Albert H. N. Baron, in translator's preface to Essai sur l'imagination créatrice.Translated by Albert H. N.

Every company is a media company now. If you don't publish content, you're invisible.Most people confuse social media with content. Social media is the amplifier — it pulls people toward your content. Your content (blogs, videos, podcasts) pulls people toward knowing, liking, and trusting you. Social media is a treadmill; content is an asset that compounds over time.This episode introduces the Content Interviewer — a copy-paste prompt for Claude that asks you 10 specific questions about your business, your story, your clients, and your approach. One question at a time, you just talk. Then the AI generates a complete content package: blog post, podcast script, YouTube thumbnail direction, five Instagram carousel slides, podcast summary, and Instagram caption.One conversation. Ten pieces of content.The episode also walks through recording video with nothing more than a phone, natural light, and a quiet room, then producing it in Descript to get a full YouTube video, a podcast audio file, and 2-3 short clips for social media.One recording session. Ten-plus pieces of content. No team, no studio, no excuses.This is the content flywheel: every piece makes you findable (Google, YouTube, podcast apps), builds trust (by the time someone calls, they already feel like they know you), and compounds permanently.

Boswell's Life of Samuel Johnson is widely considered to be the greatest English-language biography ever written. It was revolutionary in its efforts to represent Johnson as he was, celebrating his flaws as well as his genius, and in Boswell's decision to represent Johnson primarily by quoting his writings and relating personal anecdotes rather than relying on matters of public record. From the time of its publication till now, The Life of Johnson has been one of the most popular and influential books ever written.This is a collaborative reading.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Referrals are the most powerful marketing channel any service business will ever have. A referred client costs nothing to acquire, arrives pre-sold, and tends to stay longer. Yet most businesses are completely passive about referrals — waiting, hoping, and throwing out discount incentives nobody remembers.The $50-off referral card model works for software companies where signing up means clicking a button. It doesn't work for service businesses, where joining requires trust, time, and a conversation. Your clients aren't salespeople — you can't delegate your sales process to them.This episode covers three strategies for building a referral system. First, recruitment events: create specific "bring a friend" occasions with advance registration, where your goal is capturing contact info and booking consultations, not selling on the spot. Second, ask specifically using the 90-day Goal Review process — measure your client's progress, celebrate their wins, and then make a referral ask based on what you know about their life. Not "do you know anyone?" but a specific suggestion about a specific person. Third, build referrals into your client journey by telling new clients at their first meeting that you'll ask for a referral at 90 days — eliminating awkwardness and getting them thinking early.The episode includes ten industry-specific examples of exactly how to run the goal review and referral conversation, from personal trainers to photographers to financial planners.Download the free Affinity Marketing Worksheet in the show notes.Next episode: Part VII — building your content funnel.Connect with Chris Cooper:Website - https://businessisgood.com/
In the latest episode of Skadden's global series on prudential solvency, host Robert Chaplin is joined by Skadden colleagues Stan Amoah and James Pickstock to examine the regulatory frameworks governing two of Asia Pacific's most prominent insurance markets, Hong Kong and Singapore. The discussion covers Hong Kong's transition to a three-pillar risk-based capital regime under the Insurance (Amendment) Ordinance 2023, the Greater Bay Area initiative, Hong Kong's ILS hub, Singapore's evolving RBC2 framework, the matching adjustment and market entry routes for foreign insurers, among other in-depth analysis.
The tale of Sweeney Todd has had many incarnations, most famously the stage and movie musical by Stephen Sondheim. But it all started in 1846 with a serialized telling of the story titled “The String of Pearls” in the weekly magazine “The People's Periodical and Family Library”. Called by some a romance, by others a horror story, it is one of the earliest murder mysteries. In “The String of Pearls”, Sweeney Todd is less sympathetic than in some of his later incarnations – a perfect villain, totally self-seeking with no redeeming qualities. How the deeds of Todd are uncovered and how he is brought to justice make a most intriguing tale, but one probably not suited for the very young and certainly not for the squeamish.

In this volume of Creighton's history, the popes conduct themselves as Italian princes. Pope Alexander VI's daughter, Lucretia Borgia, becomes a marital pawn in her father's diplomatic plots, while his son, Cesare, fights ruthlessly for Italian territory. Julius II, as much general as pope, finds time to bully Michelangelo into frescoing the Sistine Chapel. His successor, Leo X intrigues faithlessly among the European powers, oblivious to the threat of Martin Luther's call for reform of the Church in head and members.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Phineas Finn is the sequel to “Can you Forgive Her?” and the second novel in Trollope's Palliser series. The eponymous hero is a young Irishman who becomes a member of the English parliament. Trollope aspired to become an M.P. himself, and he ably describes the workings of the English political scene. There is also a love interest, as the somewhat inconstant Phineas courts three different women: his Irish sweetheart, Mary Flood Jones; Lady Laura Standish, the daughter of a prominent Whig politician; and a lovely heiress, Violet Effingham.This is the second of Trollope's six “Palliser” novels.

Volume Four of Creighton's "History of the Papacy" opens with the election of Pope Paul II, whom the author describes as "a man of handsome appearance, naturally suave and courteous, with all a Venetian's love of splendour." Paul II proved reticent and reclusive and failed to pacify turbulent Bohemia. He was succeeded by Francesco della Rovere, Pope Sixtus IV, with whose election "began a system of personal intrigue which rapidly grew into a serious scandal...and elevated nepotism into a political principle." His nephew, Cardinal Pietro Riario lived a life of dissolute luxury and died young. Sixtus IV condoned the Pazzi Conspiracy in which Guiliano de' Medici was murdered. During the pontificate of his successor, Innocent VIII, Lorenzo the Magnificent emerged as the preeminent Italian statesman of the Age. Volume Four concludes with the pontificate of Alexander VI, father of Lucrezia and Cesare Borgia, who sealed the fate of the fiery reformer Girolamo Savonarola by excommunicating him.

“Can You Forgive Her?” is the first in a series of six Trollope novels dealing broadly with 19th Century English political scene. It introduces the reader to Plantagenet and Glencora Palliser, as they court, marry, and as Plantagenet sets out on his political career, which is carried on in the foreground or background throughout the series. Each novel has a focus on other particular characters, as well. In this one, it is the dilemma of Alice Vavasor, who is a young woman choosing between two suitors: one who has all the best qualities, but who prefers a retiring private life, and another, whose qualities are doubtful, but who is ambitious for public office. There is also a comic subplot involving a widowed aunt, who also must choose between two suitors: Mr. Cheeseacre, a dull but stable farmer, and Capt. Bellfield, a charming but somewhat erratic retired military man.This is the first of Trollope's six “Palliser” novels. Other novels in the series are:1 - Can You Forgive Her?2 - Phineas Finn, the Irish Member3 - The Eustace Diamonds4 - Phineas Redux5 - The Prime Minister6 - The Duke's ChildrenEpisode IX to XVI will be published on May 11th, 2026.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Friday night's a good night for slashing, so here comes Part 4 of our meandering trip through the Friday the 13th franchise. Al is in the house again as we check out Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988), directed by John Carl Buechler, and then we delve into the inevitable Platinum Dunes remake effort, Friday the 13th (2009), directed by Marcus Nispel. Is it a misunderstood gem? And how could Part VII ever recover from its (ironic) evisceration at the rapacious hands of the MPAA? Let's just say, plot is not really the reason to watch either of these films. so we won't be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for either of them. Want to get in touch?

This is one of a series of EC Bentley novels featuring the highly erudite artist qua reporter / detective, Philip Trent.In it, Trent is sent to a charming English seaside village to cover the murder of Sigsbee Manderson for a large London newspaper. The victim is an unpopular and extremely powerful financial tycoon, who is murdered virtually within sight of his own house, at a time when it seems impossible that anyone there – to say nothing of all of its more than half dozen inhabitants – could have failed to see or hear the crime being committed.As Trent pokes around, attention is focused on Manderson's extremely troubled marriage, not least because Trent himself falls in love with Margaret Manderson, the widow of the murdered man. At the same time, Trent himself considers her to be at least complicit in the crime for much of the novel. The plot cannot be described further without spoiling the punch-line, as it were. Indeed, to the really clever detective fiction-lover, this is already almost saying too much.Trent's Last Case was on the “ten best” list of Rex Stout, author of the famous Nero Wolfe mysteries. Like Stout, Bentley has a fondness for complex plot twists of the “boxes within boxes” variety.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Episode 153 - On Trauma Part VII by CrossViewRadio
"Mary Barton: A Tale of Manchester Life" was Mrs Gaskell's first full-length novel. It was published anonymously in that tumultuous year of political change, 1848. Elizabeth Gaskell's own personal contact with the plight of the poor cotton workers of Lancashire compelled her to a compassionate examination of their lives; but as a middle-class woman, married to a Unitarian minister, her approach to her subject took on a emotionally complex significance; influenced by religious faith but also by more personal considerations.In the brief preface to the novel, Mrs Gaskell hints at her initial impulse. The loss of a beloved child in infancy led her to seek a therapeutic outlet, but one which left her uncertain of her capacity to contextualize her public, writerly response to the tragedies occurring in the surrounding society of Manchester's poorest classes: "I know nothing of Political Economy, or the theories of trade..." She was, however, determined to portray, in novelistic form, the intimate connection between the private experience of her characters and the social forces of her time. The success of the novel led her to proclaim her authorship and move on to further works of fiction, which have secured her in our times a mounting reputation as one of the leading novelists of the mid-Victorian period.Our reader Tony Foster is a resident of Manchester and a near-neighbour of Mrs Gaskell (allowing for their separation in time). His superb narration renders the native speech of her characters with an authenticity which ideally conveys the spirit of this book. A truly moving experience awaits everyone who gives ear to this 'Tale of Manchester Life'. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We are comparing two of the most daring entries in their respective franchises: the telekinetic showdown Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988) and the groundbreaking meta-masterpiece Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994). It's a clash between the ultimate supernatural slasher and the movie that dared to break the fourth wall before "meta" was a household word. Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988) Directed by John Carl Buechler, The New Blood is often cited by fans as the "Jason vs. Carrie" installment. This is the monumental debut of Kane Hodder as Jason Voorhees, bringing a newfound physical intensity and rage to the role that defined the character for the next decade. The story follows Tina Shepard, a girl with telekinetic powers who accidentally resurrects Jason from the bottom of Crystal Lake while trying to bring back her deceased father. With a massive psychic showdown and some of the franchise's most brutal practical kills—including the iconic sleeping bag moment—this entry turned Jason into a force of nature that literally required a supernatural match-up to stop. Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) Directed by Wes Craven himself, New Nightmare took the franchise to an entirely new dimension. Abandoning the continuity of the previous films, this entry takes place in the "real world," where actress Heather Langenkamp (playing herself) is stalked by a darker, more terrifying entity that has taken the form of Freddy Krueger. As Freddy begins to bleed into reality, terrorizing the cast and crew of the Nightmare films, the movie deconstructs the entire slasher genre. It's a brilliant, psychological horror film that explores the burden of fame, the danger of archetypes, and what happens when the monster you created decides to come for its creator. Join us as we analyze how these seventh installments reinvented their monsters. We'll discuss the visceral, heavy-metal spectacle of Kane Hodder's first outing as Jason versus the high-concept, cerebral terror of Wes Craven's meta-commentary. Spoilers start around 7:21.
"Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.""In reading the history of nations, we find that, like individuals, they have their whims and their peculiarities; their seasons of excitement and recklessness, when they care not what they do. We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object, and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first."So wrote author Charles MacKay in this landmark work, which is still in print in the twenty-first century, and is considered most important for its analysis of economic "bubbles," such as the dot com bubble of 1997-2001. To a lesser degree, it was one of the first serious attempts to examine crowd psychology and is still a touchstone in that field. The history of the twentieth century suggests that as the planet has become more populated, the workings of crowd psychology have increasingly influenced everyday life, sustaining the longevity of MacKay's observations.In this volume are eight topics, four of which MacKay would classify as "Peculiar Follies:" the Crusades, the Witch Mania, the outbreak of assassination by slow poisoning, and a belief in haunted houses. The other four: Popular Admiration for Great Thieves, Popular Follies in Great Cities, Duels & Ordeals, and Relics, he classified as national delusions.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Former Baptist pastor Ken Hensley continues his series with Matt Swaim and Kenny Burchard about how the theological framework of Dispensationalism began to fall apart for him. A major theme in the story of God's chosen people Israel is the "Promised Land." Ken Hensley unpacks what was involved in that promise in the generations leading up to Jesus. Was that promise ever fulfilled, and if so, how was it fulfilled? This sets the stage for our next episode, when we'll discuss how this theme recurs in the teachings and prophecies of the New Testament. The Coming Home Network was established to help inquiring clergy and laity of various faiths -- or even no faith at all -- with fellowship, resources, and encouragement as they explore the possibility of becoming Catholic.

John 20:1-10 Part VII of the Lenten Sermon Series "On This Rock" Sermon by Dr. George C. Anderson from Easter Sunday, April 5, 2026. "We belong here… you and I. • "Whether our faith feels strong or uncertain, • Whether our life feels settled or unresolved, • Whether we are celebrating with confidence, or simply hoping something true might still meet us. "Easter is not just a celebration at the end of a journey. It is a celebration at the beginning, too. "Easter does not require that our faith be complete or our life be resolved. It declares something that is true before we fully understand it: that Christ is risen—for all of us." Read the manuscripts of our latest sermons at: https://www.spres.org/worship/sermons/

Parallel Lives of the Noble Greeks and Romans is a series of biographies of famous men, arranged in tandem to illuminate their common moral virtues or failings. The surviving lives, contain twenty-three pairs of biographies, each pair consisting of one Greek and one Roman, as well as four unpaired, single lives.Plutarch was not concerned with writing histories, as such, but in exploring the influence of character, good or bad, on the lives and destinies of famous men. The first pair of lives the Epaminondas-Scipio Africanus no longer exists, and many of the remaining lives are truncated, contain obvious lacunae and/or have been tampered with by later writers.His Life of Alexander is one of the five surviving secondary or tertiary sources about Alexander the Great and it includes anecdotes and descriptions of incidents that appear in no other source. Likewise, his portrait of Numa Pompilius, an early Roman king, also contains unique information about the early Roman calendar.In this copyright expired 11-volume translation from the Loeb Classical library, the order of the paired lives is rearranged to present the Greek lives in chronological order. Vol 1 presents the paired lives of Theseus and Romulus, Lycurgus and Numa, and Solon and Poplicola.

Dumas's 'Celebrated Crimes' was not written for children. The novelist has spared no language--has minced no words--to describe the violent scenes of a violent time.In some instances facts appear distorted out of their true perspective, and in others the author makes unwarranted charges. The careful, mature reader, for whom the books are intended, will recognize, and allow for, this fact.

We're back after some technical difficulties. And we may have missed Friday the 13th by a few days, but we were determined to get this episode out to you. The New Blood is an entry in the F13 franchise that has always been very polarizing, especially for boasting some of the greatest FX that never were seen, thanks to extensive cuts by the studio. Anyway, as always, we've picked out the most loathsome characters from the film, so join us at the end of the episode in voting for which one was the most deserving to die. If you would like to join our livestream recordings for The Cherry Picker, we would be thrilled to have you with us.
