We're back to another Rules Talk episode! This time, NPC presents a different take on handling the combat initiative flow in Palladium games, inspired by the "pair them off" concepts from the more recent rules books.

You are probably wondering, what the heck is a Slurmph? Dustin is. He's a Slurmph. And he'll let you know, in case you forgot. It's time to meet Dustin and Edmundo, best friends forever! EDITOR'S NOTES: A couple of additional tech notes here. Ironically, although we all touted the great qualities of the alternate FX-heavy patron-exclusive renders at the end of this episode, there didn't end up being many moments worth adding sound effects to in this one. Additionally, due to some audio issues, this episode took a lot longer to edit than normal and I really wanted to get it out the door. So this time around, there is no alternate FX version. My apologies! If it's any consolation, since we just finished recording it, I can promise you that the next episode has a lot more effects. Also, due to the normal biological needs of the human body, Alex had stepped away from the table right before we closed out, and thus wasn't present when we were introducing ourselves. In case you were not aware, Henry is played by Alex. Thanks, Alex! Drop us a line! You can follow us (sporadically) on Facebook, and we'd love to see you on our Discord Channel too.

There are signs that a huge part of East Africa is starting to break away from the African continent.有迹象表明,东非的一大片地区正开始从非洲大陆分离出去。Geologists (people who study the Earth and its land and rocks) studied a deep crack that runs along a large part of Zambia.地质学家(研究地球、陆地和岩石的人)研究了一条贯穿赞比亚大部分地区的深裂缝。The crack is called a rift.这条裂缝被称为“裂谷”。It is a major fault in the rock that covers Earth's surface.它是覆盖地球表面的岩层中的一条主要断层。Geologist Mike Daly of the University of Oxford is studying Zambia's Kafue Rift.来自University of Oxford的地质学家Mike Daly正在研究赞比亚的卡富埃裂谷。He believes there is activity in the rift that suggests a giant piece of land is breaking away.他认为,裂谷中的活动表明一大片陆地正在分离。He wrote: "There is evidence that the fault boundary of the Kafue Rift is active and therefore the Southwest African Rift Zone is too."他写道:“有证据表明,卡富埃裂谷的断层边界是活跃的,因此西南非裂谷带也是活跃的。”He warned that this "may be an early indication of the break-up of sub-Saharan Africa".他警告说,这“可能是撒哈拉以南非洲分裂的早期迹象”。The land on Earth is constantly moving.地球上的陆地一直在不断移动。Three hundred million years ago, there was just one huge supercontinent.三亿年前,地球上只有一个巨大的超级大陆。It was called Pangea.它被称为“盘古大陆”。Over millions of years, Pangea broke up.经过数百万年,盘古大陆逐渐分裂。Giant areas of land slowly moved across the oceans to form the continents we know today.巨大的陆地区域缓慢穿越海洋,形成了我们今天所知道的各大洲。This movement is called continental drift.这种运动被称为“大陆漂移”。Rifts are one reason why land masses split apart.裂谷是大陆板块分裂的原因之一。The Kafue Rift in Zambia is part of a 2,500-kilometre-long rift zone stretching from Tanzania to Namibia.赞比亚的卡富埃裂谷是一个长达2500公里裂谷带的一部分,该裂谷带从坦桑尼亚延伸至纳米比亚。The rift is moving at a rate of about 4.7 mm per year.该裂谷正以每年约4.7毫米的速度移动。At this rate, it will take millions of years for Africa to split in two.按照这个速度,非洲大陆需要数百万年才会分裂成两部分。Scientists believe that in 200 million years from now, there could be just one supercontinent again.科学家认为,在两亿年之后,地球可能又会重新形成一个超级大陆。

SECURITY IN THE GULF: THE DANGER OF RIFTS AMONG MIDDLE POWERS AMID THE IRAN CRISISThe Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) publicly reaffirms the principles of collective cooperation, however, as demonstrated in the Iran war, military defence is one of the areas which are far from integrated. During the last months the GCC witnessed a growing rift between once friendly rivals, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The strategic divergences of these two Gulf monarchies carry serious implications not only for the Gulf but the wider MENA region and even stretch to Yemen, Sudan and the Horn of Africa. The differences span from economic competition, foreign policy priorities, and approaches to regional conflicts – including domestic challenges ahead. Will the Iran war deepen these rifts or even increase the chance of building collective security frameworks?With high level scholars and practitioners, we will examine the roots of this rift and assess its potential consequences and ways of deescalation.Marius Bales is a researcher at the Bonn International Centre for Conflict Studies (BICC), where he has worked since 2016. He studied Political Science and German Studies at the University of Trier and focuses on military technology, arms dynamics, and contemporary forms of warfare, particularly in conflict regions such as the Middle East.Yasmine Farouk is the Gulf and Arabian Pensinsula Project Director at International Crisis Group. She studied political science at Cairo University, Sciences Po Paris and was a fellow at Yale University. She previously worked at the office of the Egyptian prime minister after the 2011 revolution, supporting civil society participation in the national dialogue and constitutional processes. From 2016 to 2017, she was the director of research at the Cairo International Center for Conflict Resolution, Peacekeeping and Peacebuilding, a think-tank and training centre affiliated with the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.Thomas Demmelhuber is a German political scientist specializing in the politics and societies of the Middle East. He is Professor and Chair of Politics and Society of the Middle East at Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg and Visiting Professor at the College of Europe in Natolin. He is also an author and editor of several academic publications, including the 2025 handbook Die Arabische Halbinsel: Geographie und Politik.Kristin Diwan is a senior resident scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute. Her current projects concern generational change, nationalism, and the evolution of Islamism in the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council. Her analysis of Gulf affairs has appeared in many publications, among them Foreign Affairs, Financial Times, and The Washington Post. She was previously an assistant professor at the American University School of International Service and has held visiting scholar positions at the George Washington University and Georgetown University.Gudrun Harrer, Lecturer in Modern History and Politics of the Near and Middle East at the University of Vienna and the Diplomatic Academy of Vienna; former Senior Editor at Der Standard (until 2025).

From Nightmare to Fan Fame: Heather Langenkamp's Hollywood Journey In this captivating episode of Reza Rifts, Keith sits down with one of horror cinema's most beloved and enduring icons Heather Langenkamp, the actress who gave the world Nancy Thompson in A Nightmare on Elm Street. Far more than a trip down horror memory lane, this conversation is a genuine, wide-ranging exploration of what it means to build a life in Hollywood from the grueling audition grind to the unexpected emotional weight of fame. Heather opens up about being cast by Wes Craven while still a student at Stanford University, what it was like to work alongside legends like Robert Englund, and how the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise became something far bigger and more meaningful than anyone could have predicted in 1984. The conversation digs deep into the evolution of horror fandom how audiences have transformed from passive moviegoers into passionate, lifelong communities and why Freddy Krueger resonates so deeply as a metaphor for the personal demons we all carry. Heather also reflects on her I Am Nancy documentary, navigating career challenges as a woman in Hollywood, the surprising world of practical special effects through her company AFX Studio, and what she wishes she could tell her younger self. Warm, funny, and full of genuine wisdom, this is the kind of conversation that reminds you why you fell in love with movies in the first place. Guest Bio Heather Langenkamp (born July 17, 1964, Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American actress, filmmaker, businesswoman, and radio personality whose career has spanned more than four decades. A Stanford University student when she first auditioned for Wes Craven, Heather beat out over 200 actresses to land the role of Nancy Thompson in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) a performance that would make her one of the most recognizable faces in horror history. Notable Works: A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) — Nancy Thompson A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987) — Nancy Thompson Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) — Herself Just the Ten of Us (1988–1990) — TV Sitcom American Horror Story: Freak Show (2014) The Midnight Club (2022) — Mike Flanagan's Netflix series I Am Nancy (2011) — Executive Producer & Star The Life of Chuck (2025) Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010) Co-Founder, AFX Studio (practical special effects) Follow Heather:

Conflict is part of being human. Disconnection happens. Emotional ruptures are unavoidable in close relationships. What truly matters is not whether rupture occurs, but how we return to each other after it. In this episode, host Gloria Lybecker & co-host Gail Donohue explore the tender, often misunderstood process of repairing emotional rifts and why true repair begins not with words, but with the nervous system. This conversation invites you to slow down and examine the difference between reactivity and resonance. Throughout the episode, Gail and Gloria draw from lived experience, interpersonal neurobiology, nervous system education, and relational healing work to show how emotional rupture can become a pathway to deeper trust. Whether you are a therapist, coach, healer, parent, partner, or simply someone committed to emotional growth, this conversation offers a grounded, compassionate approach to repairing connection—without bypassing your own nervous system needs.

5. Following the November defeat, Hitler faced internal party rifts between Gregor Strasser's coalition-building and Joseph Goebbels' hardline stance. A farcical "underwear scene" occurred when Hitler was pulled off a train to prevent a compromise with Schleicher. Despite the loss, Franz von Papeninitiated secret negotiations with Hitler.

What's the first thing that hooks you? Before the vocals kick in, before the chorus lands — it's that opening riff that either grabs you by the collar or lets you walk away. This week, your ever-enthusiastic host Jamie Ray sits down with the legendary Dame Judy D. to count down their Fave Five opening song riffs that stop you dead in your tracks.And here's the twist: we're keeping it off the fretboard entirely. No guitar heroes here — this episode is a love letter to the keys, the brass, the bass lines, and every other instrument bold enough to open a song without a six-string in sight.From the iconic to the unexpected, Dame Judy D. brings her signature wit and encyclopedic music knowledge to a list that might just change the way you listen to the first five seconds of a song.(And yes — we know. "Stairway to Heaven" is not on this list. Move on.)

This episode is part one of what turned into a two-parter, wherein we look at the Kickstarter for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Other Strangeness Redux, and its deliverings. We start with a brief informal port-mortem on the project, and then dive right into our thoughts on all the many rewards we received from it. We don't go too deeply into the books themselves, though - that's in the next episode. Also, as a bonus for our supporters, there is a special short bonus session on our patron feeds (Ko-Fi and Pinecast) where we look at all the super awesome contents that came in the Ultimate Benefactor box!

Read transcriptIn the far future town of Muskegon, the planning of crime is afoot. On a mission from the robotic arms merchant Alexander of Macedon, the Cincinnati Four (Five? Six? Who's keeping count at this point) face their biggest threat yet: the All You Can Eat Buffet Table. Also there's a cat on a jet pack, which is awesome. Sorry this one took so long to release folks. It's been on the deck for a couple of months now, but tech issues kept piling up. After enduring a series of small but frustrating technical setbacks, we've finally got this one edited and out for you all to enjoy! ALSO heads up that starting with episode 11, sound effects and music will be bonus features for our supporters on Ko-Fi and Pinecast.

Today's topic is: How to have fun playing in a RPG session. It's a subject that a lot of us either take for granted, or don't even think about at all. But it's an important conversation to be had nonetheless.

Filling in for Adam McManus I'm Ean Leppin (contact@eanvoiceit.com) Christian Nigerian Youth Fight off Armed Fulani for Over an Hour Young men defending women and children to the death! That's the story from Nigeria today. While a wedding party was taking place in the town of Bundu-Kahugu, a small group off young men, volunteer guards fought off armed Fulani for over an hour. The boys never retreated, as they held off the heavily armed attackers with nothing but machetes and handmade pipe guns. Four of the Christian youth were killed, and another six critically wounded. . The terrorists were unable to kidnap a single soul, or burn down any of the homes in the village. One observer told Truth Nigeria: “[The Fulani] attacked from four sides at the same time, at 11:45 pm Friday night.” And he said. “Our town has about 2000 homes, a small police post, a bank, two primary School and a High School. . .It is a Christian town, and we are expanding all the times because of high birthrates.” “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.” (John 15:13) Praise God for the courage of a few young men. Would you pray for Nigerian Christians this Christmas season. And be sure to support equippingthepersecuted.org — the ministry most focussed on supporting the persecuted saints in Nigeria. David Comes in Second at the Box Office A Mormon-owned film company, Angel Studios has made another mark on the US Box Office with an animated release on the biblical David. David came in second, behind Avatar at the weekend box office, with $22 million gross receipts. Angel Studios is best known for their production of the films, “Sound of Freedom” and “His Only Son.” Earlier this year, Angel Studios produced “King of kings” — an animated film on the Life of Christ — pulling down $80 million total receipts. Hallmark Features Sexual Perversion Hallmark Channel enters its sixth year of producing Christmas films featuring couples engaged in relationships characterized by sexual perversion. While Hallmark is running after the homosexual market, the pro-homosexual lobby has issued some disappointment over the drop-off of mainstream media support for their perversions. The 2025 GLAAD Studio Responsibility Index shows Hollywood studios decreasing LGBTQ characterization by 24%, 27%, and 29% respectively in the years 2023, 2024, and 2025. 1 John 2:17 reminds us that “the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” Bolsonaro's Son to Run for President in Brazil Brazil's former conservative president has officially started serving his 27-year sentence for attempting to overturn the 2022 election results. Now, Jair Bolsonaro's son has announced he's running for president in 2026. Flavio Bolsonaro says he's conservative on taxes and spending, but more moderate on others. . . He told Reuters, that he's still good with COVID-19 vaccines. 43% of Churchgoers are Pro-Life A recent Family Research Center survey indicates some bad news for American Christians. Only 43% of churchgoers describe themselves now as pro-life, down from 63% two years ago. The survey looked at regular churchgoers — only 44% of the American population. Only 41% of churches bring up the topic of abortion multiple times a year. The Human Coalition, the Family Research Council, and other Christian leaders have issued a public letter to pastors in America pointing out that the life issue is a gospel issue. The letter, signed by Tony Perkins and Dr. Daniel Akin, president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary exhorts pastors to 1. Preach the Gospel of Life with clarity and compassion. 2. Proclaim the truth that every unborn child is sacred. 3. Offer the hope of Christ to post-abortive men and women in your pews. And, 4. Equip. . .congregations to be defenders of the vulnerable. 30,000 Attend Turning Point's America Fest in Phoenix Turning Point's America Fest in Phoenix brought in 30,000 Charlie Kirk fans over the weekend. . . The event featured the Who's Who in America conservativism — Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Vivek Ramaswamy, Donald Trump Jr., and Vice President J.D. Vance. Rifts between the speakers surfaced — on issues related to America First nationalism and policy related to Israel. Younger Republicans are far more hesitant to support Israel than older Republicans, according to a recent You-Gov Survey. Taking one metric for instance, only 10% of twenty-something Republicans favor giving military support to Israel — compared to 49% of Republicans over 65 years of age. InsiderAdvantage has released presidential approval numbers — Trump stands at 50%. . . The gender gap remains — 34% of American men disapprove of Trump's performance, against 47% of women registering disapproval. Gold Charges Upwards and Condo Prices Rise Gold is still charging upwards — now $4,438 per ounce, and silver upwards of $68 and change. Condo prices, seen as the canary warning in the mines for real estate — are sinking fast right now. Florida condos have dropped 15-30% from 2022 highs. Texas condo prices are down 15-20%, and Colorado Condos prices are down 10-15%. Add 11% for inflation and we're looking at a 20-40% contraction on the 2022 bubble.
