This week on Comics and Chronic we're marking our milestone 300th episode with Zack Snyder's 300 based off the cult classic graphic novel by Frank Miller.  In 480 B.C. a state of war exists between Persia, led by King Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro), and Greece. At the Battle of Thermopylae, Leonidas (Gerard Butler), king of the Greek city state of Sparta, leads his badly outnumbered warriors against the massive Persian army. Though certain death awaits the Spartans, their sacrifice inspires all of Greece to unite against their common enemy.We made it to episode 300 despite Cody's sabotage attempts at a comedy festival & Anthony's desire to change our name.  But first Jake learns how to correctly pronounce Bon Iver.  This movie is stacked with actors such as Gerard Butler, Lena Headey, Dominic West, Michael Fassbender, & others.  Is this movies ableist?  This is a dude's DUDE movie.  Men killing, sweaty CGI and, boobies, murder, blood, wolves, cripples everything a man needs to see to feel like a man.  Also gave rise to one of cinema's most famous lines:  “THIS IS SPARTA!”  This is easily o e of or if not Zack Snyder's best movie.  Some great fight scenes and cinematography even with the CGI.  It's also almost page for page the comic 300.  Could the Hot Boys have held the hot gates?  Where does 300 rank on Zack Snyder's movies with fans?  Anthony's childhood is similar to that of a boy's childhood in 300?  Did this movie destroy what the ideal male body should look like?  How does this movie age now that we're no longer hormonal teenage boys?  Tune in today for our milestone 300th episode!New episodes every THURSDAYFollow us on social media!

Il capro è un mammifero ruminante con corna cave e pelo di solito lungo eliscio. Diversi sono stati i suoi nomi antichi. Per gli ebrei ‘ez indicavala capra comune. Il capro peloso veniva chiamato sa‘ìr. Il maschiodominante però era detto ‘attùdh. In greco troviamo 2 parole: tràgos ed èrifos.In latino, la capra della Siria era chiamata Capra hircus mambrica,ed era caratterizzata da lunghe orecchie pendenti e da corna ricurve all'indietro.È la razza predominante in Palestina. Di solito, queste capre sono nere; quellemacchiate sono un'eccezione. I capri erano uno dei prodotti principali delcommercio di Tiro.Anticamente, le mandrie di capri potevano essere piuttosto numerose. Unafamiglia benestante poteva possedere migliaia di capri e capre.Il capro e la capra erano incredibilmente preziosi. La femmina forniva illatte, da cui si potevano ricavare burro e formaggio. Nell'alimentazionequotidiana poteva essere presente la carne sia dell'animale adulto che diquello giovane, detto capretto. Il pelo veniva impiegato in molti modi nell'industriatessile. Anche le tende potevano essere fabbricate usando il pelo nero deicapri. Le pelli venivano lavorate per trasformarsi in otri, non solo comevestiario.Il capro era anche uno degli animali più utilizzati nei sacrifici cruenti.SimbolismiantichiTheImperial Bible-Dictionary (a curadi P. Fairbairn, London, 1874, Vol. I, p. 664) osserva: “È interessante scoprire che questo [il capro] era il simbolo nazionale deglistessi Macedoni. Esistono ancora monumenti in cui ricorre questo simbolo, comeuno dei pilastri di Persepoli, dove è raffigurato un capro con un immenso cornosulla fronte, e un persiano che regge il corno, a simboleggiare la sottomissionedella Macedonia alla Persia” (fatto avvenuto verso la fine del VI secolo a.C.La capra di montagna, o capraselvatica. Un altro antico nome ebraico di questo animale è ye‘elìm, ovvero la“capra di montagna”, o “capra selvatica”. Queste espressioni si riferisconoallo stambecco della Nubia (Capra ibex nubiana), una capra selvatica chevive sui monti e che ha grandi corna ricurve all'indietro, fortemente dentate. Questoanimale è di casa in alta montagna, dove si arrampica con grazia e disinvolturasu rupi frastagliate e strette sporgenze montuose. Durante il periodo dellagestazione, queste capre cercano luoghi difficilmente raggiungibili dall'uomo. Queste creature sono del tutto indipendenti dall'uomo.Evitano l'uomo anche nel momento della nascita.Sulla riva occidentale del Mar Morto è presente una zona rocciosa dettaEn-Ghedi, il cui nome significa “Fonte (Sorgente) del Capretto”, il chesuggerisce che le capre di montagna abitassero quella regione. Anche in tempirecenti vi sono stati avvistati stambecchi.In italiano, il termine “stambécco” indica sia il maschio che la femmina. Magli antichi ebrei chiamavano le femmine ya‘alàh. Ed era un animale caratterizzato da una notevolegrazia.Ma nonfinisce qui. Infatti, lo stambecco potrebbe aver avuto pure un altro nome: 'aqqòh(“capra selvatica”). Molti studiosi ritengono che 'aqqòh indicherebbe unsinonimo di ye‘elìm, cioè lo stambecco della Nubia.

Gospel Daily with Josh Weidmann Deliver Us From Evil, Part 2 Series: Daniel - Thy Kingdom Come Scripture: Daniel 10 Episode: 1309 In Daniel 10, Daniel receives a powerful vision after three weeks of mourning and fasting, during which he is visited by a heavenly messenger clothed in linen with a radiant appearance. Overwhelmed by the encounter, Daniel falls weak but is strengthened by the angel, who explains that his prayer was heard from the beginning, but the answer was delayed by spiritual warfare—specifically, a conflict with the prince of Persia. The angel reveals that angelic battles influence earthly kingdoms, and Michael, the archangel, assisted in breaking through. This chapter lifts the veil on spiritual conflict, showing that heavenly warfare affects human history. Key themes include persistent prayer, angelic resistance, spiritual warfare, and God's sovereignty over unseen realms.

The art of intercession is beyond our traditional concept of prayer. It calls us into a deep and profound comprehension of a sacrificial way of lifestyle that collaborates with the forces of heaven to bring about reformation and transformation to society. It flows from a selfless heart, fully and wholly devoted to God's kingdom purposes and prophetic mandate for man and creation. When we intercede, we step into a sacred calling, standing in the gap in relentless love and courage, aligning earthly realities with the divine will to shift the course of human affairs for individuals, communities, and entire nations.At its core, intercession is an act of love; it's an intentional, Spirit-led intervention on behalf of others. It's the moment when a human heart aligns with God's heart, pleading for His mercy, justice, and purposes to manifest in the earth. Whether it's for a family member, a city, or an entire nation, intercession carries the weight of heaven's redemptive plan. The Bible is filled with examples of intercessors who changed the course of history through their relentless, heartfelt prayers: Daniel, Nehemiah, Abraham, Moses, and countless others who stood before God on behalf of broken people and wayward nations.Consider Daniel's story in Babylon (Daniel 10). From the moment he began to pray, God dispatched an answer, but a spiritual adversary, the prince of Persia, hindered the response for 21 days. Daniel's persistence in prayer, coupled with angelic intervention, ultimately broke through the resistance. This account reveals a critical truth: intercession is not just a spiritual exercise; it's a confrontation with unseen forces that seek to oppose God's will. It requires tenacity, spiritual insight, and a deep understanding of the agencies at play in the spiritual realm.Intercession is heaven's ordained mechanism for transformation. If a nation is to experience revival, renewal, or restoration, it begins with a people who understand the ministry of intercession. These intercessors are the forerunners of change, the ones who labor in prayer to align earthly realities with heaven's purposes. But to be effective, intercession demands more than fervent prayers; it requires a clear understanding of the spiritual dynamics involved and a heart fully surrendered to God's redemptive plan.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Kent Merrell, author of the book The Conquest of Liberty. Meet A. Kent Merrell, a man whose creative spark has ignited award-winning advertising campaigns, inspired global leadership talks, and now fuels the pages of his vivid historical fiction. With his latest book, The Conquest of Liberty, Kent invites readers on a rollicking journey through the reformation in Europe, the discovery of the New World, and the dramatic fall and liberation of the Inca Empire. His storytelling, steeped in travels to far-flung lands and two years living atop the Andes, breathes life into history with a flair only a master of “ideas that work” could muster.   Kent's creative journey kicked off in a small Utah town, where he co-founded an advertising agency fresh out of Brigham Young University. His knack for crafting messages that make phones ring and perceptions shift drew heavyweights like Disney, VISA International, HBO, and Comcast to his doorstep. Recognized as a creative trendsetter in direct marketing, Kent's trophy case boasts 27 international awards, and his creative presentation expertise has lit up stages from Europe to Latin America. In the mid-1980s, a Madison Avenue legend advised him to stay in Utah, promising the work would come—and it did, in spades.   But Kent's story isn't just about ads that pop. Leadership runs deep in his veins, sparked by watching his father, an entrepreneur with no formal power, wield profound influence through honorable character. After his father's passing when Kent was 16, he devoured leadership books and seized every chance to lead—from Boy Scout troops to serving as President of Utah's Vocational Industrial Clubs of America in high school. Later, Dr. V. Dallas Merrell tapped him to transform “Leading Global Principles” into accessible wisdom, crystallizing Kent's understanding of influence and impact. Whether guiding corporate giants or mentoring youth, Kent's leadership is as creative as his advertising, always aiming to inspire and engage. Kent's take on leadership brings with it tasty chocolate chip cookie recipes with each leadership principle. Soon to be published will be the first ever delicious leadership recipe book “Leaderchip Cookies.   Now, Kent channels his global adventures and creative prowess into historical fiction. His debut, The Blade of Safavid, whisks readers across Ancient England, Persia, India, Africa, and the Americas. The Conquest of Liberty continues this tradition, blending meticulous research with storytelling zest. When he's not penning epics, Kent's busy with his wife of 46 years, raising five children and doting on 22 grandchildren. Follow his literary adventures at www.kentmerrellauthor.com or catch his broader musings at www.kentmerrell.substack.com.   With Kent, expect a tale well-told and a legacy that inspires.   In my book review, I stated The Conquest of Liberty is a detailed, many POV, Renaissance historical fiction. We follow the journey of several people - all of whom have incredible stories - and it isn't until the very end that we find out how all of these stories wind together into one. I was immediately hooked despite knowing next to nothing about the Moors, monarchs, and monks of the time.   Kent is a master at creating characters. For instance, Miguel, an archbishop's right hand man who lives in Granada should be very foreign to me. But within a few pages, I felt as if he were alive in my living room as he fled persecution, was kidnapped by pirates, and found himself questioning both his King and his Pope. Then, there is Alessandro, a young boy in the care of Balboa, the explorer, Maria, a women who fled her home and lived with the Gitanos, and Vano, the next leader of the Gitanos, not to mention Sayyida al-Hurra, a Morracan Privateer, Jalaf Morisco, a Morracan Exile, and Talavera, the Archbishop accused of heresy.   This novel is far more than a historical fiction - it contains within the pages action, adventure, mystery, and love.

Join Dan and Chris on their exploration of the Video Game film Prince of Persia!

Just a few decades after the destruction of Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem, Emperor Cyrus of Persia gave the Jews permission to return to Jerusalem and rebuild Jerusalem and the Temple. The euphoria didn't last long, soon after they started building the Temple, permission was rescindedA fascinating discussion about the starts and stops of the building of the Second Temple and the fulfillment of Jeramiah's cryptic prophecy.

Bad leaders corrupt organizations. How? One way is by promoting all the wrong people. In Esther, this is when the plot thickens. When King Xerxes made Haman his second in command, Mordecai refused to bow to him. Haman's wounded pride led to a plot to kill and plunder all the Jewish people of Persia. Would they survive this existential threat? Read more...

Do you pray with your family at home? Queen Esther prayed with her maids in the palace. Lots of other people were praying for “Where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.” MATTHEW 18:20, NIV.God hears us when we pray together

How can a prophecy written over 2,000 years ago be so shockingly accurate, yet still remain a mystery to so many? That's the paradox of the Biblical book of Daniel's predictions.The Book of Daniel demonstrates the Bible's unmatched accuracy, as it foretells the rise of Babylon, Persia, and Greece under Alexander the Great, and other empires, long before they occurred, with the Septuagint confirming that these prophecies were recorded over 200 years before Jesus. As we dive into Daniel's prophetic chapters, we're seeing these patterns continue today, with Joe Morris' end times teachings reminding us to stay alert as wars, rumors of wars, and moral confusion rise. From radical anti-Israel voices gaining influence, to Trump's plan to arm Ukraine while tensions with Russia escalate, to Biden's autopen scandal exposing lawlessness in leadership, and even a Colorado DA dropping charges against a transgender child predator, these headlines reveal a world shaking under deception, corruption, and the erosion of justice—signs Jesus warned would increase before His return. Now is the time to stay rooted in God's Word, watch the prophetic signs, and live ready, because Jesus is coming soon, and the Bible continues to prove itself true with each passing headline.------------------------------------------------------------

Gospel Daily with Josh Weidmann Rise Up In An Upside-Down World... Part 2 Series: Daniel - Thy Kingdom Come Scripture: Daniel 8 Episode: 1303 In Daniel 8, Daniel receives a vision of a ram and a goat, symbolizing future conflict between empires. The ram with two horns represents Media and Persia, while the goat with a prominent horn symbolizes Greece, specifically Alexander the Great. The goat defeats the ram, but its large horn is broken and replaced by four others—signifying the division of the Greek empire. From one of these, a small horn arises, representing a future ruler who opposes God, desecrates the temple, and exalts himself against the “Prince of the host.” The vision is later explained by the angel Gabriel, who confirms it concerns the time of the end. Key themes include prophetic symbolism of world empires, desecration of the temple, and God's ultimate judgment on evil rulers.

Forget your inhibitions and worries; surrender to the spirit of fête. With Party Room Squad, you are fully immersed in an authentic Caribbean experience, surrounded by a community that lives and breathes the culture. It's an opportunity to dance until your feet ache, sing until your voice is hoarse, and revel in the profound sense of belonging that only Carnival can offer.

This week's reading was A Thousand and One Nights, also known as The Arabian Nights. The backstory (very, very briefly) was that a king, upon finding his queen to be unfaithful, executed her, and declared himself done with women, sort of. Every night, a new woman was brought to be his queen. Every morning he had his vizier execute the poor unfortunate girl. One day the vizier's own daughter Scheherazade asked to be married to the king. After many days of begging, the vizier finally gave in to the girl's request.Once in the king's bedchamber, her sister (it's kind of complicated) asked for a story. Scheherazade spun a tale but ended it at a cliffhanger. The king, wanting to hear the end of the story, decided to let her live and bring her back for a second night. With stories that included Sinbad, Ali Baba and Aladdin, Scheherazade lived a thousand and one (and more) nights.The actual stories are collected from around the 8th century until the 13th, from Persia and India predominantly. They were translated into English around the 17th century. I'd imagine that the exotic stories captivated European audiences!For me, the experience of reading the stories was similar to reading Grimm's Fairy Tales. The stories are fun, and very interesting—I loved some of them, especially the seven voyages of Sinbad. But when I say they didn't leave a mark, I just don't think I'll take a lot from this week's reading. I didn't find any of them to demonstrate particular lessons, to teach virtues or make some kind of grand statement about the human condition. They were really fun, and I will definitely keep this book around because it is terrific bedtime reading. That's not a terrible thing to say about a book.A year ago I read the wonderful Everything Sad is Untrue by Daniel Nayeri, about a little Iranian boy who emigrates to Oklahoma with his mom and brother. There are vignettes in which the author directly references these stories, related as a way for him to hold onto his Persian heritage. I do think I'll go back and reread that one, just because I really loved it and would like to be able to know it a little better. Now that I've read Arabian Nights, that should be easy.LINKDaniel Nayeri, author of Everything Sad is UntrueTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm

Desde el siglo XVIII fue evidente la desproporción entre el poder material, militar y económico de Occidente y el resto del mundo. Esa fue a la vez una de las causas y las consecuencias del colonialismo, y en ese complejo ajedrez Irán (o Persia) no fue la excepción de todos los viejos imperios que se lanzaron, acaso de manera tardía y fallida, a un proceso de 'modernización' que terminó por abrirles las puertas mucho más a las potencias occidentales.

What do you do when you aren't sure what would be right in a complicated situation, conversation, or decision? Chapter 2 is full of morally ambiguous situations for Esther and Mordecai — not a lot of black and white, but lots of gray. However, the history-making result was that Esther was crowned queen of Persia. God's people need wisdom and courage to navigate the complexities of life in exile. Read more...

Exposición de Ester 1:1-20. Aconteció en los días de Asuero, el Asuero que reinó desde la India hasta Etiopía sobre ciento veintisiete provincias, 2 que en aquellos días, cuando fue afirmado el rey Asuero sobre el trono de su reino, el cual estaba en Susa capital del reino, 3 en el tercer año de su reinado hizo banquete a todos sus príncipes y cortesanos, teniendo delante de él a los más poderosos de Persia y de Media, gobernadores y príncipes de provincias, 4 para mostrar él las riquezas de la gloria de su reino, el brillo y la magnificencia de su poder, por muchos días, ciento ochenta días. 5 Y cumplidos estos días, hizo el rey otro banquete por siete días en el patio del huerto del palacio real a todo el pueblo que había en Susa capital del reino, desde el mayor hasta el menor. 6 El pabellón era de blanco, verde y azul, tendido sobre cuerdas de lino y púrpura en anillos de plata y columnas de mármol; los reclinatorios de oro y de plata, sobre losado de pórfido y de mármol, y de alabastro y de jacinto. 7 Y daban a beber en vasos de oro, y vasos diferentes unos de otros, y mucho vino real, de acuerdo con la generosidad del rey. 8 Y la bebida era según esta ley: Que nadie fuese obligado a beber; porque así lo había mandado el rey a todos los mayordomos de su casa, que se hiciese según la voluntad de cada uno. 9 Asimismo la reina Vasti hizo banquete para las mujeres, en la casa real del rey Asuero.10 El séptimo día, estando el corazón del rey alegre del vino, mandó a Mehumán, Bizta, Harbona, Bigta, Abagta, Zetar y Carcas, siete eunucos que servían delante del rey Asuero, 11 que trajesen a la reina Vasti a la presencia del rey con la corona regia, para mostrar a los pueblos y a los príncipes su belleza; porque era hermosa. 12 Mas la reina Vasti no quiso comparecer a la orden del rey enviada por medio de los eunucos; y el rey se enojó mucho, y se encendió en ira.13 Preguntó entonces el rey a los sabios que conocían los tiempos (porque así acostumbraba el rey con todos los que sabían la ley y el derecho; 14 y estaban junto a él Carsena, Setar, Admata, Tarsis, Meres, Marsena y Memucán, siete príncipes de Persia y de Media que veían la cara del rey, y se sentaban los primeros del reino); 15 les preguntó qué se había de hacer con la reina Vasti según la ley, por cuanto no había cumplido la orden del rey Asuero enviada por medio de los eunucos. 16 Y dijo Memucán delante del rey y de los príncipes: No solamente contra el rey ha pecado la reina Vasti, sino contra todos los príncipes, y contra todos los pueblos que hay en todas las provincias del rey Asuero. 17 Porque este hecho de la reina llegará a oídos de todas las mujeres, y ellas tendrán en poca estima a sus maridos, diciendo: El rey Asuero mandó traer delante de sí a la reina Vasti, y ella no vino. 18 Y entonces dirán esto las señoras de Persia y de Media que oigan el hecho de la reina, a todos los príncipes del rey; y habrá mucho menosprecio y enojo. 19 Si parece bien al rey, salga un decreto real de vuestra majestad y se escriba entre las leyes de Persia y de Media, para que no sea quebrantado: Que Vasti no venga más delante del rey Asuero; y el rey haga reina a otra que sea mejor que ella. 20 Y el decreto que dicte el rey será oído en todo su reino, aunque es grande, y todas las mujeres darán honra a sus maridos, desde el mayor hasta el menor. 21 Agradó esta palabra a los ojos del rey y de los príncipes, e hizo el rey conforme al dicho de Memucán; 22 pues envió cartas a todas las provincias del rey, a cada provincia conforme a su escritura, y a cada pueblo conforme a su lenguaje, diciendo que todo hombre afirmase su autoridad en su casa; y que se publicase esto en la lengua de su pueblo.Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960)

On June 13, 2025, Israel initiated “Operation Rising Lion,” attacking Iran's ballistic missiles installations, eliminating a significant number of Iran's elite military leadership and nuclear scientists. Then on June 21, 2025, the United States unleashed “Operation Midnight Hammer” and attacked Iran's nuclear facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. Now that the dust has settled, what are the key takeaways from these military operations? During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd and Pastor Rich Jones discuss the ramifications of both strikes and also provide an assessment of the ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

Send us a textThe veil between what we see and what truly exists is thinner than most realize. When we encounter challenges, obstacles, and opposition in our lives, we often miss the deeper spiritual dimensions at play. Beyond our biology, chemistry, and physical experiences lies a reality where principalities, powers, and spiritual authorities shape what manifests in our material world.This episode explores the profound biblical truth revealed through Paul's declaration: "We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, and spiritual wickedness in high places." Through Jacob's transformative encounter with the divine—wrestling until daybreak and refusing to let go without receiving a blessing—we discover a pattern for enforcing spiritual authority in our own lives. Jacob's identity shifted from supplanter to Israel ("prince with God"), establishing his place in the cosmic order and creating a spiritual lineage that would shape history.The angelic encounter described in Daniel 10 further illuminates how territorial spiritual authorities influence nations, politics, and world events. The "prince of Persia" who withstood Gabriel for twenty-one days reveals an invisible realm where spiritual beings carry out purposes in the natural, moral, and political worlds. As believers, we fight from a position of victory, not defeat. The Prince of Peace dwells within us, making us crown princes with authority to enforce heavenly realities in earthly situations. The signet ring is with us—the question is whether we'll use it to establish God's will "on earth as it is in heaven."Ready to perceive beyond the veil and live from your position of spiritual authority?

It is said that Pheidippides, an Athenian herald, was sent to Sparta to request help when the Persians landed at Marathon, running 150 miles in just two days. After this, he then ran another 25 miles from the battlefield near the town of Marathon to Athens to announce the Greek victory over Persia in the Battle of Marathon with the word “Νενικήκαμεν”, meaning ‘We have won'. He then collapsed and died on the spot due to exhaustion. Many years later; in the town of Sheffield, we find ourselves focused on the adventures of a very unfit man trying to complete his first ever Marathon. He's only just started and already he's thinking about catching a bus… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Are "the Don" & Bibi being less than forth-coming concerning "Debacle in the Desert Part VII"? As most of us now realize, war is the biggest racket of all! The primary purpose of the Banking Cartels is to fund all sides of every war right up until the grand finale, which the predator class is doing their darndest to bring about. Here's some food for thought that the legacy and controlled op networks may have missed. Is there a connection between Iran and ancient Atlantis? What was Persia's  influence on early America, and did Zoroaster's Gathas serve as the basis for the Declaration of Independence? Does this current regime aim to swap Iran's true birthright of an enlightened libertarianism for an elitist controlled technocracy? Moshe Daniel Block returns for a part 2 discussion that we had with him on a prior and immensely popular Alfacast. Dr. Moshe, ND, VDP, HMC, VNMI, is a naturopathic doctor, author, and innovator in mind-body medicine who graduated from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2000. He created and teaches the Vis Dialogue, a transformative mind-body healing technique that has helped thousands achieve life-changing results, and offers a full certification program in Holistic Counseling (holistic-counseling.ca). Having overcome myasthenia gravis with the medicine he practices, Dr. Moshe also provides personal healing programs for chronic illness and emotional suffering (dr-moshe.com). While this episode may lean in a bit more on geopolitics, we'll conduct our analysis in typical Alfacast fashion through an Alchemical lens. For those new to our channel, "Alchemy" is the authentic Science-based method of inquiry grounded in pragmatic application. Fundamental to this occulted methodology is the principle of transmutation, and why Man was given the responsibility to wield this natural mechanism toward the third and final Golden Age. Rudolph Steiner's "The War of All Against All" and Ahriman's involvement will receive additional attention to lend extra depth to these current events rooted in bygone civilizations and the forces now bringing world chaos to its ultimate crescendo.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 3, is the Feast of St. Thomas, the Apostle.Thomas, who at first did not believe, became one of the first witnesses to the faith by expressing the fervor of his regained confidence in God, seeing the Man Christ and acknowledging His divinity: "My Lord and my God.""Because you have seen Me, Thomas, you have believed?" said the Lord.Doubting Thomas' weakness of faith reveals how God permits our faults for the sake of our soul's progress, for no mortal man can see divinity.The Lord permitted the apostle to doubt after the resurrection, but He did not abandon him in doubt.It is known that St. Thomas preached the Gospel in Asia beyond the frontiers of the Roman Empire, probably in Persia and possibly as far as India.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Yes, Summer is here and for many, that means a break and the chance to dig into a good book.In this special set of episodes, to run through July and August, Charlie Higson delves headfirst into some of the current crop of history books and invites the authors onto the podcast.In 1603 England was on the edge of crisis. Queen Elizabeth I had died, bringing the Tudor line to an end.Enter King James, who reached London after an unprecedented procession from Scotland. James established a new dynasty on the English throne and the first 'united' kingdom of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales was born. The Stuarts had arrived.But first, this new 'Great Britain' had to play catch up. England was behind, but James's global ambitions began to shift the tide. Ships departed London for America, Russia, Persia, India and Japan, and as the fledgling East India Company became ever closer to the crown, the seeds of the future British Empire were sown.Professor Anna Whitelock's new book The Sun Rising: James I and the Dawn of a Global Britain tells this fascinating story and is the subject of this episode of Willy Willy Harry Stee.

TCW Podcast Episode 237 - Jordan Mechner and Price of  Persia   We continue our look at Jordan Mechner with the development of Prince of Persia. Its cinematic inspirations include Castles of Dr. Creep, the opening of Raiders of the Lost Ark, and the 1938 Robin Hood. To animate the prince, Mechner filmed his brother performing stunts, then manually painted key frames, painting his brother white and the background black to make the footage compatible with a limited digitizer. Memory constraints forced creative solutions, like XORing the prince and bit shifting him to create Shadow Man. A promising film project delayed the game's release, but Prince of Persia launched on the Apple II with groundbreaking animation. A strong Macintosh port and renewed interest following Disney's Aladdin helped turn the game into a hit across the early 1990s.   The Making of Prince of Persia: https://www.jordanmechner.com/en/books/journals/ TCW 172 - The Computer Price Wars Part 1: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-price-wars-part-1/ TCW 173 - The Computer Price Wars Part 2: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-wars-part-2/ TCW 174 - The Computer Price Wars Part 3: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-computer-wars-part-3/ TCW  019 - The Great Video Game Crash Part 1: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-great-video-game-crash-part-1/ TCW 020 - The Great Video Game Crash Part 2: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-great-video-game-crash-part-2/ TCW 021 - The Great Video Game Crash Part 3: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-great-video-game-crash-part-3/ TCW 071 - A Story of Brøderbund!: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/a-story-of%C2%A0br%C3%B8derbund/ TCW 072 - The MYSTeries of Brøderbund!: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-mysteries-of-br%C3%B8derbund/ The Castles of Dr. Creep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mi2dvxcioBw First 10 minutes of Raiders of the Lost Ark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUWYmTpYdP4 The Thief of Bagdad (1924): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTXZSVIIk-c How Prince of Persia Defeated Apple II Memory Limitations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sw0VfmXKq54 Prince of Persia (Apple II): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZDAPp61aak Robin Hood (1938): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USpQGE5sVAY Prince of Persia (PC DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKQX75dBlEI Prince of Persia (Amiga): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukSECkajKYA Prince of Persia (NES): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6hylvkCh-8 Prince of Persia (SNES): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZtkPZih-3s Prince of Persia (Macintosh): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjR_AhxPnVM Prince of Persia Re-Release Box: https://bigboxcollection.com/PrinceOfPersia.3DBox   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1     Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

IRAN; THE  ETHNICS HOLD BACK. BRENDA SHAFFER, AUTHOR "IRAN IS MORE THAN PERSIA" PERSIA

On this episode of Michael Meade recounts a myth from ancient Persia, the name by which Iran was known for centuries. The ancient tale predates all historical hostilities and battles in the Middle East and offers surprising insights into the origins and nature of the kind of conflict that can plunge whole peoples and entire epochs into darkness. Way back at the beginning, the original clash of opposite forces and the presence of great uncertainty about the future of life entered the world together. The force of chaos and darkness attacks the principle of order and creation using the weapons of lies and aggression. However, that is not the end of the story, but rather a critical turning point in which a greater sense of consciousness and a deeper sense of wisdom can shift the balance back to the process of creation. The primary problem is that breaking the tension of opposing forces requires that the original split in life must become more conscious. No true healing unless the original split is touched. No true changes without a moment of wholeness that can offset the underlying doubts and projections of guilt and blame. No lasting treaty unless those claiming to create peace already have peace in their hearts. Only then can it be understood that the effect of an elemental opposition is to generate a deeper sense of meaning and a greater sense of understanding that does not simply stop the hostilities, but also stimulates life itself. Creation is the only outcome of conflict that can satisfy the soul.     Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth.

Tim and Mary Danielsen take on some headlines, hopefully before they self-destruct. Did you ever feel like you are in a fog of uncertainty because of constant media speculation? But sitting still and waiting for the headlines to come to us is just futile, and so we continue to dig and be amazed. Today we take on a land grab built into the Big Beautiful Bill. Western land is up for grabs - and more than likely designated already to big money green projects. America being what it is and has been, apart from the citified areas, we tend to think that the wide open parts should be left to the ranchers, coyote, hikers and cowpokes, but soon, depending on the outcome of this legislation, serious acreage could be handed over to renewable energy companies and foreign conglomerates. Also, we look at the Minnesota murders of State Representative Melissa Hortman, a Democrat and her husband, and injuring State Senator John A. Hoffman, also a Democrat, and his wife. Melissa Hortman was the highest-ranking Democrat in the Minnesota House. Why is this so bizarre, and will we ever be able to connect all the dots? We predict it will be looked at no further. We also explore whether or not other nations can turn around and supply Persia with nukes; EU censorship; and military contracts to use AI to fight our battles - turning suit types into occasional soldiers. Yeah, you can't make this stuff up.  Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A
