En este capítulo, el Dr. Armitage descifra el enigmático manuscrito de Wilbur Whateley, revelando un plan que trasciende el tiempo, la materia y la humanidad. Mientras tanto, en Dunwich, un gigante invisible, pestilente y de origen desconocido arrasa las granjas, aplasta los bosques y siembra el terror. El Horror de Dunwich ha despertado, y solo los sabios de Arkham conocen su verdadera dimensión. Esta entrega nos adentra en la parte más oscura y cósmica del relato, donde la erudición, los grimorios y los conjuros ancestrales se enfrentan a una fuerza incomprensible.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate creativity - Episode 402 - The Future of History - My hope is that listeners get more out of their AI interactions - and I certainly will be helping you along the way. I also plan nothing less than for "Celebrate Creativity" to become a vibrant, intergenerational hub for exploring the enduring power of human imagination, supported by the exciting possibilities of modern technology.You might "Use an AI bot (such as ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity), and ask it to compare and contrast the poetic styles of Edgar Allan Poe and Walt Whitman. Specifically, ask it to discuss their use of meter, imagery, and themes of nature/death. After you get the AI's response, read one poem by each author (e.g., Poe's 'Annabel Lee' and Whitman's 'O Captain! My Captain!'). Do you agree with the AI's analysis? Where does it align, and where does your own reading diverge? Of course you can obviously do a lot more, but we get into that later.I'm just throwing out these ideas, and showing you what can be done - which is very important - not necessarily asking that you do these activities right now - but we certainly will get into that and a lot more later.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay got the whole wide world, in their hands, as they discuss 'Con Air.' Bombay opens the proceedings by telling the time he had his own flight from hell from Asia which involved being awake for 36 hours after a bender, with his arm in a sling. Then the fellas talk about one of the goofiest studio movies of the '90s, a film where Jerry Bruckheimer tapped a gun for hire to do his best Michael Bay impression, and the KY budget was record breaking as everyone glistened on screen. Nic Cage's flowing locks, and hackey inconsistent sometimes southern, sometimes Cajun accent, gets top billing, but it's an insanely stacked cast. John Malkovich chews scenery to degrees that'll make your jaw hurt, Danny Trejo is an ultra predatory latin Pepe le Pew, and Steve Buscemi is a poetic psychopath who wears heads for hats. Meanwhile, approximately 58% of the plot revolves around Cage's Poe securing insulin for his friend. None of it makes sense, but it ends with not one, but two wild crash scenes that tear up the majority of the Las Vegas strip. Whether you love the movie or find it overly cartoonish you'll want to tune in for this episode ... "or the bunny gets it."
Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Creativity - previously celebrate poe - this is episode 401 - From Poe to AI, Part Two - In this podcast episode, I wanna be getting away from Poe for now and delving more into AI. And now when I talk about AI or AI bots, just think about websites that use AI can you can ask a question - more about that later.Now, opening a play on Broadway certainly is a demanding undertaking. And I want to start today's podcast by briefly mentioning two people who helped open plays on Broadway in their 90s. First, Adrienne Kennedy of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, born in 1931, is an American playwright known for her unique and surreal theatrical style. She grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and later attended Ohio State University, where she earned a B.A. in education in 1952. Her plays frequently center Black women and delve into the impact of racism and societal pressures. In 2022, at the age of 91, Adrienne Kennedy made her Broadway debut as a playwright with Ohio State Murders. This play, written decades earlier, draws on Kennedy's own experiences as a student at Ohio State University in the late 1940s and early 1950s, highlighting the systemic racism she encountered. And John Harold Kander - born in 1927 - along with his partner lyricist Fred Ebb.) wrote the scores for 15 musicals, including Cabaret (1966) and Chicago (1975.), He and Ebb also wrote the standard "New York, New York" (officially known as "Theme from New York, New York"). When he was 94 he wrote the music for a Broadway musical version of New York New York - a play that received 11 Tony nominations and four wins.Now I want to continue from last week and jump back to the subject of doing historical research with AI. And for the rest of this episode, I am largely going over comments from Gemini.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

Together, Dr. Holmes and Dr. Poe unpack what actually happens when you're asleep and why sleep is essential not just for memory, but emotional resilience, longevity, and high performance. This episode breaks down the different stages of sleep and how they reshape the brain, regulate the nervous system, and actually clean the brain.

Settle in your best (and only) coffin, grab a drink or twelve and join us for “The Comedy of Terrors”. In film in which we hear possibly the only use of the phrase “Toss Pot” outside of the UK; Orangey displays why he was considered one of the finest cactors of his generation; and Osgood Fielding III gives the best scream this side of a Tom and Jerry cartoon. Sadly, this is the last time that Vincent Price and Peter Lorre demonstrated their magnificent comedy double act as part of this amazing ensemble with Joyce Jameson, Boris Karloff and Basil Rathbone, all of whom totally embrace the grotesque insanity of their characters and the tale itself. “The Comedy of Terrors” is a real refinement of the dark vein of humour the various cast members had begun exploring with Roger Corman in the Poe adaptations “Tales of Terror” and “The Raven”, but this time, it's the legendary Jacques Tourneur behind the camera, with an original script from the pen of the great Richard Matheson, both of whom mould this original gem of Gothic Black Comedy. Sadly, “The Comedy of Terrors” failed to perform at the box office, and with Lorre's death only a few months after release, it closed a chapter on what could have been a far more interesting direction for producers AIP. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers and join us.
In this explosive episode of The Notion Podcast – Outlawed Opinions (Ep. 5174), Dizzy and Poe dive deep into the controversy surrounding Diddy's ongoing legal battles and the jaw-dropping revelations from his former bodyguard Gene Deal. The hosts break down what Gene really thinks about the music mogul and why his interviews are shaking the culture. Next up, the duo reacts to Keyshia Cole's viral wardrobe malfunction during a live performance — and yes, the butt pad moment everyone's talking about. Is it fashion fail or media overkill? To wrap things up, the conversation gets heavy as rapper Bossman Delow trends online after being allegedly exposed by a rumored ex-male lover. The internet has questions, and so do we. Tune in for unfiltered commentary, bold takes, and no-holds-barred honesty — only on Outlawed Opinions.

Which research methods are better, quantitative or qualitative? What is more important, getting a richer picture of what goes on in organizations, or seeking generalizable insights about causality?

We asked one of the best econometric scholars we know () and one of the best qualitative scholars we know () to fight this debate on air and come up with their very own end-of-all arguments.

Rob Thomas and Mike Poe, General Manager of Quintero Golf Club, discuss the club's renovation plans. Quintero, originally designed by Rees Jones, has seen a significant increase in rounds played from 10,000 to 40,000 annually. The renovation, expected to be completed in October, includes a full bunker and green renovation, focusing on maintaining the course's signature bent grass while improving playability. The project aims to enhance the course's ranking and customer experience. Poe emphasized a drip marketing strategy to build anticipation and highlighted future of possible development plans, including additional golf courses and facilities. Also in the news ... Club + Resort Business is launching an Engagement Summit to advance membership strategy and connection. The new event, set for October 5–6, 2025 at St. Andrews CC in Boca Raton, Fla., will bring together club professionals for focused education around attracting, retaining, and engaging members. A new short course is joining this Hawaiian golf experience. The new three-hole short course – “The Three Pearls” – offers fun and challenging play for golfers of all skill levels at Pearl at Kalauao on Oahu. With hole distances ranging from 40 to 60 yards, Nā Momi ʻEkolu is ideal for beginners, juniors, casual players and advanced golfers looking to sharpen their short games. The Club at New Seabury in Mashpee, Mass., is now part of the Concert Golf Partners family. Storied U.S. Open Champion Francis Ouimet once described the 300-acre oceanfront property as the “Pebble Beach of the East.” The Club at New Seabury on Cape Cod spans 300 acres, with nine holes alongside the ocean. And, the Mizner ‘A' team kicks off a clubhouse renovation. The Delray Beach, Fla., club enlisted its junior construction team, who received a fun and educational lesson on the steps involved in upgrading life at Mizner Country Club.

In this episode of Fast Casual Nation, hosts Paul Barron and Cherryh Cansler sit down with Preet Paul Singh, partner of Houston-based bōl, to explore his fascinating journey from fine dining to fast casual. Singh shares how his team leveraged their culinary expertise from acclaimed restaurant Amrina to create two interconnected fast-casual concepts—bōl (Indian-inspired rice bowls and salads) and Pakpok Poe (elevated fried chicken)—while maintaining premium ingredients and building a scalable commissary model. From overcoming initial customer skepticism to developing a multi-tiered restaurant portfolio that includes fine dining, fast casual, and everything in between, Singh offers valuable insights on pricing strategy, operational efficiency, technology integration, and the future of fast-casual expansion for restaurant professionals looking to elevate their brands.#FastCasualNation #RestaurantBusiness #FastCasualGet Your Podcast Now!

Michael #1: platformdirs A small Python module for determining appropriate platform-specific dirs, e.g. a "user data dir". Why the community moved on from appdirs to platformdirs At AppDirs: Note: This project has been officially deprecated. You may want to check out pypi.org/project/platformdirs/ which is a more active fork of appdirs. Thanks to everyone who has used appdirs. Shout out to ActiveState for the time they gave their employees to work on this over the years. Better than AppDirs: Works today, works tomorrow – new Python releases sometimes change low-level APIs (win32com, pathlib, Apple sandbox rules). platformdirs tracks those changes so your code keeps running. First-class typing – no more types-appdirs stubs; editors autocomplete paths as Path objects. Richer directory set – if you need a user's Downloads folder or a per-session runtime dir, there's a helper for it. Cleaner internals – rewritten to use pathlib, caching, and extensive test coverage; all platforms are exercised in CI. Community stewardship – the project lives in the PyPA orbit and gets security/compatibility patches quickly. Brian #2: poethepoet - “Poe the Poet is a batteries included task runner that works well with poetry or with uv.” from Bob Belderbos Tasks are easy to define and are defined in pyproject.toml Michael #3: Python Pandas Ditches NumPy for Speedier PyArrow Pandas 3.0 will significantly boost performance by replacing NumPy with PyArrow as its default engine, enabling faster loading and reading of columnar data. Recently talked with Reuven Lerner about this on Talk Python too. In the next version, v3.0, PyArrow will be a required dependency, with pyarrow.string being the default type inferred for string data. PyArrow is 10 times faster. PyArrow offers columnar storage, which eliminates all that computational back and forth that comes with NumPy. PyArrow paves the way for running Pandas, by default, on Copy on Write mode, which improves memory and performance usage.

On this episode of GoalChat, host Debra Eckerling talks about AI with Paula McConnell, AI clarity strategist and educator; Chris Stone, chief content entrepreneur, Cast Ahead; and Jason Van Orden, AI business growth and marketing strategist. The panel shares their collective love for AI, whether it's used as a tool for organization, productivity, education, or all of the above. Paula, Chris, and Jason also offer their AI origin stories, thoughts on how AI enhances - rather than replaces - human-centric projects, and more. Goals: - Jason: Use AI to do a brain dump. And then ask a useful question that will help you move forward, "What's my first step?" - Paula: Ask more questions. "How do I best use you?" or "Before you begin, do you have any questions?" - Chris: Use an aggregator, such as Magi, Poe, Merlin, so you have all of your tools in one place. Final Thoughts - Chris: AI can't network ... at least not yet - Jason: AI is here to stay; try it out! - Paula: Have conversations. Ask other people, "What does AI mean to you?"

I never met a short story I liked back in high school. If I was going to read, I wanted to READ. I wanted to get caught up in the plot, get to know the characters, inhabit the action, spend some time in another world. I certainly didn't want to finish half an hour after I began. No matter how lovely the language or innovative the miniature plot. My eyes just drifted over short story sections at bookstores and libraries like they weren't there, and I honestly can't remember the name of a single story I read in high school that has stayed with me. I know, I know, I should start my podcast with a more chipper intro. But here's the thing - I've got a new take on the world of short stories. Yes, I could talk to you about the stunning language of Hemingway short stories I discovered in grad school. (Here's looking at you, "Hills like White Elephants"). Or I could share Ursula LeGuin's unique Giver-in-miniature, Those Who Walk Away from Omelas (though you might have a little trouble keeping everyone serious during the paragraph about orgies). I could even dig into Poe, that intriguingly murky figure, with his loveably creepy Raven, and how well he lends himself to escape rooms. But I've shared about popular classic short stories before. And reviewed popular contemporary collections for teens too. Even given you a walkthrough of designing an escape room for Poe. Today, my aim is a bit different. As Camp Creative: Your Shiny New Short Story Toolbox, my summer Pd session gets closer (you can join us free here), I've been thinking a lot about different takes on the short story. Flash stories, audio stories, verse stories, graphic stories, multigenre stories. What if we added THESE to our short story toolbox? Camp Creative : Your Shiny New Short Story Toolbox is coming June 23-27. In this fun and free 5 day summer workshop, you'll… ⭐ Learn about 5 fabulous short story options from me (plus SO MANY others from the thousands of other teachers at camp!) ⭐ Walk through 5 creative out-of-their-seats and/or outside-the-box short story lessons (bye bye, comprehension questions) ⭐ Take away 5 classroom-ready curriculum kits for next year (hello, major time-savers!)

We're diving headfirst into high-flying mayhem with Con Air, a chaotic symphony of explosions, one-liners, and mid-air madness—handpicked by our awesome Patreon supporter Susan from the Geek Girl Soup podcast!Con Air (1997) was born out of the mid-90s action movie boom, with producer Jerry Bruckheimer riding high from previous hits like The Rock and Crimson Tide. Wanting to blend testosterone-fueled chaos with a high-concept premise, Bruckheimer and the team crafted a story about a maximum-security prisoner transport gone wildly off the rails. The script, written by Scott Rosenberg, was inspired in part by a real federal program, but the film quickly ditched realism in favor of bombast and explosions. Simon West, a former music video director making his feature debut, was brought on to direct, bringing a flashy style that matched Bruckheimer's over-the-top vision.The production faced major challenges, especially with the practical effects and large set pieces involving planes, crashes, and convicts with very short fuses. Shot primarily in Utah and Nevada, including sequences at the infamous "Boneyard" in the Mojave Desert, the film used a combination of real aircraft, full-scale models, and miniature effects. Despite the logistical headaches, Con Air brought together a ludicrously stacked cast including Nicolas Cage, John Malkovich, Steve Buscemi, and Ving Rhames. Cage famously trained with DEA agents and adopted a Southern accent for his role — choices that added to the movie's now-iconic (and deeply memeable) legacy. If you enjoy the show we have a Patreon, so become a supporter.www.patreon.com/thevhsstrikesbackTrailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a world where justice is served on wings of chaos, Con Air follows newly paroled Army Ranger Cameron Poe, who just wants to get home to his wife and daughter—but finds himself trapped on a high-security prisoner transport flight hijacked by some of the most dangerous criminals in America. With time running out and a plane full of maniacs soaring toward disaster, Poe must fight from the inside to stop the carnage, clear his name, and maybe deliver a heartfelt bunny rabbit along the way. Buckle up—this flight's going down in action-packed, slow-mo glory.thevhsstrikesback@gmail.comhttps://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback

A brief tale of the dismal success of a scientist's experiment. Anton's Last Dream by Edwin Baird. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Another podcast, another debut—this time for author Edwin Baird. Best known as the first editor of Weird Tales magazine, Baird helped launch the iconic American fantasy and horror pulp, whose first issue was dated March 1923 and hit newsstands on February 18 of that year.However, Weird Tales got off to a rocky start. Plagued by financial difficulties, the magazine struggled, and Baird was dismissed after just one year at the helm. Born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in 1886, Baird published four short stories during his lifetime—three before Weird Tales and one in the very magazine that let him go.Yet perhaps his most enduring legacy lies in his editorial decisions. As the magazine's founding editor, Baird was among the first to publish the work of a now-legendary author: H.P. Lovecraft. And if you've heard our earlier episodes, you'll recall that Lovecraft was a tireless letter writer. Thankfully many of his letters were preserved, including this one to Baird.Shortly after the first issue of Weird Tales was published Lovecraft let himself be persuaded to send Edwin Baird five manuscripts. This is a portion of the letter Lovecraft sent, “My Dear Sir: Having a habit of writing weird, macabre, and fantastic stories for my own amusement, I have lately been simultaneously hounded by nearly a dozen well-meaning friends into deciding to submit a few of these Gothic horrors to your newly-founded periodical. The decision is herewith carried out. Enclosed are five tales written between 1917 and 1923.I have no idea that these things will be found suitable, for I pay no attention to the demands of commercial writing. My object is such pleasure as I can obtain from the creation of certain bizarre pictures, situations, or atmospheric effects; and the only reader I hold in mind is myself.My models are invariably the older writers, especially Poe, who has been my favorite literary figure since early childhood. Should any miracle impel you to consider the publication of my tales, I have but one condition to offer; and that is that no excisions be made. If the tale can not be printed as written, down to the very last semicolon and comma, it must gracefully accept rejection.”So there you have it, a little piece of science fiction history thanks to Weird Tales editor Edwin Baird.Published in Weird Tales Magazine in May 1937 on page 607, Anton's Last Dream by Edwin Baird…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A Certain Young Man Finds Dying a Profitable Business.

Send Kris and Rob a Text Message!The Cigar Girl: The Unsolved Death of Mary RogersIn 1841, Mary Rogers was the most admired woman in Manhattan—a stunning young clerk in a bustling cigar shop who caught the eye of politicians, poets, and even Edgar Allan Poe. But when she vanished one summer Sunday, and her body was found floating in the Hudson near Hoboken days later, her fame turned into infamy. Was it murder? A botched abortion? Or something more sinister?Join us as we dig into one of America's first media-fueled murder mysteries—one that inspired Poe's fiction and left behind more questions than answers.
Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHTHE DEAD SPEAK! The opening crawl reveals that a mysterious broadcast has been heard across the galaxy in the voice of the late Emperor Palpatine. BUT HOW?! Leia dispatches agents across the galaxy to gather information on this, while Kylo Ren, now Supreme Leader of the First Order, searches for Palpatine in an effort to eliminate all potential threats to his power.Kylo Ren finds this triangle thing which leads him to a hidden planet where he finds Palpatine, still kicken. Palpatine unveils a fleet of Star Destroyers and offers it to Kylo if he finds and kills Rey, who is continuing her Jedi training under Leia. During Rey's training, She has a chat with Kylo Ren through their Force bond—brief flashes of the past—and accidentally crushes BB-8 during training. I was so mad at her for hurting sweet BB-8.Poe announces to the Resistance that Palpatine is alive and plans to unleash his fleet. To stop him, they need the Sith Finder which Rey believes to be on a planet called Pasanna.The. crew lands during a sick dance party. Rey meets a local who gives her a necklace—through their Force bond, Kylo take it from her and determines her location. Rey is soon approached by Leia's contact—Lando Calrissian. He explains that he and Luke once searched for a Sith hunter named Ochi, who may have held the key to finding the Wayfinder. They found his ship, but no trace of him.Stormtroopers arrive, and the heroes flee into the desert, falling into quicksand that leads to an underground cave. There, they find a Sith dagger inscribed with a clue.
