Stāsta Latvijas Universitātes bibliotēkas darbiniece, filoloģijas doktore Aija Taimiņa. Zelta grāmata, zelta vārdi – tā ne vienmēr ir bijusi tikai skaista metafora. Šie izteicieni bija jāuztver burtiski. Vai zini, ka grāmatas savulaik greznoja arī ar īstu  zeltu? Ka zelta grāmatas “Codex Aureus” (piemēram, Codex Aureus de St Emmeran, Francija, ap 870. gadu, Bavārijas Zemes bibliotēka) vākus klāj zelta plāksnes ar filigrāniem kaltiem attēliem un zeltā iestrādātiem dārgakmeņiem? Ka evaņģēlija vārdi tika rakstīti ar zelta tinti uz purpurā krāsota pergamenta lapām? Zeltā mirdz miniatūras un iniciāļi viduslaiku manuskriptu lapās. Foliantu vāki ar filigrānos zelta kalumos iestrādātiem dārgakmeņiem un ziloņkaulu apliecina kā  laicīgo, tā garīgo valdnieku dievbijību, bet arī bagātību un varu. Zelta simbolika ir bagāta un daudzveidīga. Zelts metafiziski saistāms ar to, kam ir vislielākā vērtība, tas ir gudrības, apskaidrības, nemirstības, nemainības, slavas, bagātības, pārpilnības, skaistuma, greznības simbols. Kristīgajā teoloģijā tīrs zelts ir dievišķā un svētā zīme, debesu atspīdums, patiesības saule.  Zelts ir visvērtīgākā ticīgo upurdāvana. Vecās Derības Dieva balss runā noteiktus vārdus: “Man pieder sudrabs, un Man pieder zelts,” – saka tas Kungs Cebaots” (VD, Hagaja grāmata 2:8). Bībele apraksta ķēniņa Sālamana uzcelto Jeruzālemes templi, kura durvis, sienas, griesti  bija pārklāti ar tīru zeltu, visas lietas bija darinātas no zelta (VD, Otrā Laiku 3). Zelts klāja altāri, un divu heruvimu spārnus, kas sargāja vissvētāko – Derības šķirstu ar Mozus bauslības  vārdiem, iekaltiem venkāršās akmens plātnēs. Jāņa Atklāsmes grāmatas vīzija tēlo ideālo pasauli, kurā zelts ir jaunās debesu Jeruzālemes jeb Dieva garīgās valstības uz zemes manifestācija. Jaunā Jeruzāleme ir žilbinoši grezna, mirdzoša: “pilsēta bija no tīra zelta, līdzīga skaidram stiklam. Pilsētas mūra pamati bija rotāti ar dažādiem dārgakmeņiem. (..) Pilsētai saules un mēness gaismas nevajag, jo Dieva spožums to apgaismo, un viņas gaisma ir Jērs” (Jāņa Atklāsmes 21: 18,19, 23). Vērts atcerēties, ka kristīgajā teoloģijā skaistums ir transcendentāla vērtība: tas ir ārpus laika un telpas; pārpasaulīgs, tāpat kā labais un patiesais. Akvīnas Toms (1225 -1274), turpinot Aristoteļa pausto, runājis par trim estētikas kategorijām, kas piemīt labai, skaistai lietai: “pirmkārt, nevainojamība jeb pilnība, jo lietas, kas ir izjukušas, tieši tāpēc ir neglītas. Un pienācīga proporcija jeb saskaņa. Un, visbeidzot, skaidrība, no kā izriet, ka lietas, kurām ir spilgta krāsa, tiek sauktas par skaistām”. Perfekcija, harmonija, krāsu spožums, tātad arī greznība, cildeni (un dārgi) materiāli dara lietu (mākslas darbu, celtni, arī manuskriptu) skaistu. Vecās Derības vārdi un Akvīnas Toma uzskats palīdz skaidrot dilemmu, kā sakrālajā mākslā var savienoties kristīgās askēzes princips un īpaša, izaicinoša greznība. Tīra zelta klātbūtne kā Bizantijas svētnīcās, tā viduslaiku rokrastu lapās izprotama visdziļāk, ja fascinējošo greznību uzlūko un skaidro kā hierotopijas (sengrieķu ἱερός – svēts un sengrieķu τόπος – vieta, telpa) elementu un izpausmi. Hierotopija ir  apzināts jaunrades process, kurā ar arhitektūras, attēlu, rituālu, gaismēnu, krāsu, skaņu, arī ar kūpinātā vīraka smaržu un dūmu palīdzību tiek veidota svēttelpa. Sakrālajā telpā zelts ir Dieva klātbūtnes apliecinājums. Ikonas un pergamenta rokraksti muzeju vidē skatītājam raisa pētniecisku interesi un rada cieņpilnas jūtas. Atgriezties laiktelpā, lai sastaptos ar seno manuskriptu tapšanas pieredzēm ir gandrīz neiespējami. Grūti atdzīvināt emocijas, ko izjuta tālo gadsimtu garīdznieki svēto grāmatu priekšā. Tagad tikai retajam ļauts pārliekties pergamenta manuskripta lapām pie sveces gaismas, lai bijībā un pārsteigumā pieredzētu, kā  pustumšajā, klusajā baznīcas vai klostera telpā dzīvajā sveces liesmā pēkšņi silti iemirdzas  grāmatas zelta sākumburti vai veseli zelta vārdi, kā, lapas šķirot, klusi noknikšķ pergaments, atklājot arvien jaunas nodaļas ar grezniem iniciāļiem. Hierotopijas pieredze ļauj domāt, ka grāmata un tempļa svēttelpa tika veidotas pēc līdzīgiem principiem. Grezna grāmatas sākumlapa ir kā tempļa ieejas vārti, kas pārklāti ar zeltu un greznoti krāsām; liels, ar zeltu rotāts iniciālis ievada jaunu nodaļu un izceļ kādu būtisku vārdu, gluži tāpat, kā  templī zeltītas durvis ved arvien tuvāk svētvietai. Misālē tas ir liels attēls ar Golgātas ainu, lūgšanu grāmatā – krāšņu, izsmalcinātu  miniatūru virkne, kas ved cauri baznīcas gadam un reizē – Kristus dzīvesstāstam. Sena kodeksa veidols stāsta par laiktelpā izvērsta teksta dramaturģiju, iezīmē akcentus un norāda uz svarīgāko. Tomēr zeltā mirdzošas grāmatas dziļākā, simboliskā  būtība manifestējas sakrālo rituālu un ceremoniju norisēs. Šādas grāmatas tapa, tika lietotas un glabātas arī Rīgā, daudzas joprojām glabājas mūsu bibliotēkās. Gan ikonu glezniecībā, gan viduslaiku grāmatu miniatūrā zelta klātbūtne apliecina dievišķās gaismas klātbūtni. Latīņu valoda pasaka priekšā: ‘lumen', ‘illuminare' – gaisma, izgaismot, apgaismot, zeltīt, ‘illuminator' – iluminators, zeltītājs. Zelts dara redzamu neredzamo, proti, dievišķo, svēto. Zelta klātbūtni jeb asistiku (assisto, latīņu val.) iluminators realizēja, ar plānu zelta foliju izklājot sagatavotu miniatūras fonu, uzliekot zelta akcentus filigrānā vinjetē vai ar zelta krāsu izgaismojot iniciāli, drapēriju. Zelta pieskāriens izceļ jebkuru toni. Lai zelta folija mirdzētu, to pulēja ar kaula instrumentu. Lai gan zelts ir dekora pabeigtības zīme, miniatūrists pirmo ieklāja zeltu, tad strādāja ar pārējām krāsām. Par laicīgu bagātību un aizrautīgu greznoties prieku vēsta zeltījums, kas dekorē grāmatu ādas iesējumus, griezumu, muguriņu visos laikos, no Renesanses līdz mūsdienām. Zeltīšana tehnoloģijas prasa no miniatūrista, kaligrāfa un grāmatsējēja augstu profesionalitāti. Zelta klātbūtne padara rokrakstu vai iespieddarbu par elitāru, estētiski augstvērtīgu   bibliofīlas intereses un apbrīnas objektu.

In this episode, we talk to digital media theorist and artist Laila Shereen Sakr, who also performs under the name VJ Um Amel.

Kdyby dnes stála, vypadaly by dějiny evropské architektury nejspíš úplně jinak. Sakrální stavba, jejíž základy nalezli archeologové na Vyšehradě se však do dnešních dnů nejen že nedochovala, ale pravděpodobně ani vůbec nikdy nestála. Základy, které byly během vykopávek odhaleny, nebyly nikdy v historii doplněny dalším zdivem. Přesto vypovídají o tom, že tento nedokončený projekt měl být možná tím nejambicióznějším, co české země za vlády Přemyslovců zažily. Nám tak dnes nezbývá než se ptát, proč knížata v desátém století od myšlenky monumentální tetrakonchální svatyně nakonec upustila. Archeolog Jiří Macháček a kunsthistorik Ivan Foletti si o tom povídají s dalším speciálním hostem, archeologem Ladislavem Varadzinem. Ten na Vyšehradě nalezl nejen tento nedostavěný kostel, ale dokonce, aniž by to sám plánoval, také zlato. Jestli jste si po minulé epizodě mysleli, že Vás Vyšehrad již nemůže ničím překvapit, možná se při poslechu 56. dílu podcastu Středověk (jinak) trvá budete divit.Vyrobilo Centrum raně středověkých studií při Semináři dějin umění Masarykovy univerzity.S finanční podporou Aukčního domu Zezula,Scénář: Ivan Foletti a Jiří MacháčekZvukový záznam: Katarína KravčíkováZvuková postprodukce: Jakub KrausZnělka: Jakub Kraus Hosted on Acast.

Pēc vērienīgas rekonstrukcijas Rīgas pilī šoruden atgriezies Latvijas Nacionālais vēstures muzejs (LNVM). Lai arī ar pilnu jaudu darbību tas atsāks tikai nākamajā gadā, jau šobrīd interesentiem ir iespēja apskatīt rekonstruētās telpas un apmeklēt pasākumus. Tieši tāpēc novembra pirmajā "Atsperē" tiekamies ar muzeja direktoru Arni Radiņu.  Inta Zēgnere: Skaists notikums, ko esam piedzīvojuši – Rīgas pils ir atvērta, un Latvijas Nacionālais vēstures muzejs sāk lēnām atgriezties šajās telpās. Šobrīd tās vēl skatāmas bez ekspozīcijām, taču varbūt visupirms, Arni, atgādiniet pašus elementārākos faktus par Rīgas pili... Arnis Radiņš: Tā, kuru mēs šobrīd redzam, ir trešā Rīgas pils. Pirmā tika nopostīta, un tika ierādīta vieta otrajai – šajā pašā vietā, kur atrodas trešā. Taču otru toreiz arī nopostīja, un šī ir 1515. gada versija, kura uzbūvēta uz 1330. gada versijas jeb otrās pils pamatiem. Izklausās diezgan sarežģīti, bet patiesībā viss ir ļoti vienkārši. Šīs mājas pamatos var redzēt kaut ko no 14. gadsimta pils, bet pamatkorpuss ir no 16. gadsimta. Vakar beidzot pati apmeklēju Rīgas pili un biju absolūtā sajūsmā – negribējās iet projām: iesaku visiem paskatīties uz šīm telpām un sajust patiešām neparastu atmosfēru… Lai arī veikti restaurācijas darbi, senumu var just. Vai varu lūgt jūs mūs iztēlē izvadāt pa pils telpām? Pa vārtiem ieejam dienvidu korpusā. Šie vārti ir jauni, tie nav no senajiem laikiem: šie vārti izveidoti vēlāk, lai būtu komunikācija [arī ar šo pilsētas daļu]. Īstie vārti, kas ved pilī, atrodas pretējā pusē – ziemeļu korpusā. Šobrīd tie nav pieejami. Pagriežamies pa labi un ieejam vienā no pils pirmā stāva telpām – vestibilā, un redzam ārkārtīgi skaistas velves. Labā ziņa ir tā, ka izdevās pazemināt šīs telpas līmeni: agrāk cilvēki bija pietiekami slinki: ja nu kas, tika uzlikta arvien jauna un jauna grīda. Tagad kādi četrdesmit centimetri atgūti no sākotnējā līmeņa, kaut gan pie vienas kolonnas var redzēt, ka vēl kādu četrdesmit centimetru pietrūkst...  Stāvu augstāk ir lielākās pārvērtības: atjaunota kapela un remteris jeb baznīca un ēdamtelpa – tādā izskatā, kādas tās kādreiz bija, jo [laika gaitā] tām tika iebūvēts viens starpstāvs. Restaurācijas gaitā tas tika izņemts ārā, un šobrīd telpa ir visu septiņu metru augstumā – tāda, kāda tā reiz bijusi.  Ceturtais stāvs arī ir pārveidots, nostiprināts. Tas tapis vēlāk tapis, bijušā ieroču stāva vietā, un nekādus senus brīnumus tur redzēt nevar, izņemot atsegtās dienvidu korpusa sienas: tagad var redzēt, kādas tās izskatījās kādreiz – ķieģeļu mūrējums. No visām telpām mans favorīts ir pagrabs… Tā ir vismazāk pārveidotā telpa. Pareizāk sakot – izņemot ārā visas starpsienas, telpas ir vistuvāk sākotnējai substancei – pieņemu, ka kopš 1515. gada tās neviens šādā izskatā nav redzējis, jo tūlīt, kā jau pagrabā, tika ierīkotas noliktavas, telpa tika sadalīta mazākās daļiņās. Tagad tam visam var iziet cauri, un šis skats simt metru garumā ir diezgan iespaidīgs... Arī šeit labā ziņa ir tā, ka pagrabs atjaunots tuvu tam augstumam, kāds tas bija. Jo arī šeit bija sakrājušies uzbērumi, bet tagad velves un kolonnas nolasās labāk nekā iepriekš: telpa ieguvusi majestātisku skatu! Pie tam interesanti, ka viens gals šai telpai ir ar labākām velvēm, proti, izpildīts kvalitatīvāk, bet otrs ir vienkāršāks, izskatās, ka būvēts ātrākā tempā. Ir divas teorijas: viena no tām – ka bijuši divi amatnieki, divi meistari, kas mūrējuši: viens bijis kārtīgāks, viens nekārtīgāks. Jo patiešām meistari bija divi. Tur, kur ir greznākās velves, bijusi paredzēta prestižāka vieta, nevis vienkārši pagrabs. Iespējams, bruņinieku kapenes vai kas cits.  Pagrabs sagādāja lielāko arheoloģisko pārsteigumu: pils izrakumu laikā atradām hipokausta krāsni, par kuru jau tagad plaši izskanējis. Tas interesantākais fakts ir tas, ka šī krāsns nav saistāma ar pili – tā ir vecāka. Vēl vecāka par 1330. gadu! Bet kā tas nākas? Jo parasti taču tādas krāsnis ierīkoja, ja bija kādi konventi, klosteri. Šķiet, arī Piritas klosterī ir šāda veida krāsns.  Šis ir ļoti tipisks apkures veids tā laika celtnēs.  Bet ko tad apkurināja, ja nebija pils? Pēc rakstītiem avotiem zinām, ka šai pilij pilsēta ierādīja vietu pie Svētā Gara hospitāļa – pie pilsētas mūra, kurā atradās Svētā Gara tornis ar vārtiem pie zirgu staļļiem, daļēji pilsētas teritorijā. Šajos izrakumos pagalma dziļumā atradām gan koka pilsētu ar koka ielām jeb koka bruģējumu un koka mājām, atradām arī pilsētas mūri un Svētā Gara torni. Zirga staļļus gan neatradām, lai gan... smaka bija saglabājusies! Patiešām?!  Jā, vienā izrakumu laukumā... Apmēram ir nojauta, kur tie varētu būt bijuši, bet konstrukciju ziņā šīs liecības neatradām. Bet krāsns ir no Svētā Gara hospitāļa, kura sienas atradām izrakumos. Tā ir ēka, kas iepriekš atradās pils vietā. Tad tā tikusi nojaukta un uzbūvēta pils. Tas bija hospitālis, vai tomēr konvents? Tur ir valodnieciska nianse. Ja tulko no latīņu valodas, tad tas ir hospitālis, ja tulko no vācu valodas – konvents. Tā bija patversme, kur pavadīt vecumdienas – arī bagātiem cilvēkiem. Šis bija ļoti bagāts konvents – tam bija gan pārtika, gan nauda, gan viss pārējais. Tas aprakstīts hronikās. Nonākot velvju pagrabu teritorijā, uzreiz rodas asociācijas: tā taču ir Ārzemju mākslas muzeja izstāžu zāle, tikai ar ieeju no citas puses. Jā un nē. Jo Ārzemju mākslas muzeja Velvju zāle aizņēma daļu no šīs telpas. Ieeja ir tieši turpat. Bet velves izskatījās savādāk tāpēc, ka tur bija ierīkota grīda, bet otra daļa, kas tagad redzama, greznākā daļa – tā bija Vēstures muzeja īpašums. Es to vēl atceros kā ogļu pagrabu, vēlāk tur atradās keramikas glabātuve. Bet kopumā, veselumā, visā šajā garumā šo telpu sen neviens nav redzējis – tagad ir unikāla iespēja to apskatīt. Pagrabs ir krāšņākā telpa… Negribu neko sliktu teikt par remteri un kapelu, arī tās ir vienreizējas un tādas Latvijas pilīs vairs nav saglabājušās. Taču tās ir stipri pārveidotas. Garu var just, bet faktiski tās ir ne tik oriģinālas, jo tur ir jauni, pārveidoti logi. Arī pagrabs izskatās tīri svaigs! Kā jau pēc restaurācijas – viss ir "uzfrišināts". Bet laiks darīs savu. Nosūbēs un viss atkal nostāsies savās vietās. Grīdās parādīsies pirmie papēžu nospiedumi, uz sienām – plecu nospiedumi un skrāpējumi. Tas ir neizbēgami. Māja nolietojas. Sterili izskatās tikai pašā sākumā. Cilvēks atstāj savas pēdas. Latvijas Nacionālā vēstures muzeja rīcībā ir visa kapelas daļa – četri korpusi. Pieejams šobrīd ir dienvidu korpuss: no 12 000 kvadrātmetriem šobrīd 4400 ir gatavi, un pils gaida vēl trešo kārtu, lai to pabeigtu. Tuvāko četru gadu laikā katru gadu nodosim pa vienai ekspozīcijai. Sāksim ar ekspozīciju "Straumējot laiku" ceturtajā stāvā – tā būs tāda ļoti saspiesta Latvijas vēsture no Akmens laikmeta līdz šodienai. Cilvēks varēs paātrinātā tempā iziet cauri visai mūsu vēsturei. Nākošā ekspozīcija būs pagrabā, tās nosaukums būs "Livonijas pilis", kas rādīs to lielisko materiālu, kas ir muzeja rīcībā no Latvijas arheoloģiskajos izrakumos iegūtajām liecībām. Tā varētu būt vēl pēc gada. Pēc tam būs ekspozīcija "Rīgas pils vēsture", bet vēl pēc tam – "Sakrālā māksla", kas atradīsies kapelā jeb baznīcas vietā. Remteris jeb ēdamtelpa netiks ekspozīcijām izmantota, bet paliks tāda, kāda tā ir šobrīd – lai var apjaust šīs telpas apjomu. Telpu varēs izmantot arī dažādiem pasākumiem. Vairāk – ierakstā.

The fabulous Rebecca Coleman & Nicole Seymour join me to chat about the sparkly, clingy, joyful, irritating, enchanting paradox that is glitter!A few years ago I attended a zoom lecture by Dr Rebecca Coleman about her long-term research project into glitter. A project which was initiated following a collaging workshop with young girls, organised by Coleman.. It was witnessing the allure of glitter as a material in this workshop, as well as how glitter was appearing for weeks afterwards, lingering at the bottom of a bag, or attached to belongings and clothing, that led her to follow some of these themes further..Rebecca is a professor at the school of School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies and Bristol Digital Futures Institute at the University of Bristol, with research crossing media, cultural studies and feminist theoryRebecca recommended that we invite Nicole Seymour to join us in this conversation.. Nicole works in the environmental humanities, asking how literature and other cultural forms – from documentary film to stand-up comedy – mediate our relationship to environmental crisis. Her latest book, Glitter, is an environmental-cultural history of that substance from Bloomsbury's “Object Lessons” series. She is professor of English and graduate advisor of environmental studies at California State University at Fullerton.I am officially a mega fan of Beckie and Nicole, they are both iconic. They do such a good job of maintaining the enjoyment of glitter while taking it seriously as a subject.. I highly recommend both of their books which I will link to here:https://mitpress.mit.edu/9781912685387/glitterworlds/https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/glitter-9781501373763/More LinksRebecca Colemanhttps://journals.oslomet.no/index.php/rerm/article/view/3669https://read.dukeupress.edu/cultural-politics/article/18/1/79/298683/Glitter-Shine-GlowPatinas-of-Feminine-Achievement (I'm not sure if this is open access?)https://www.academia.edu/36834385/_Osgood_J_in_press_You_cant_separate_it_from_anything_glitters_doings_as_materialised_figurations_of_childhood_and_art_in_Sakr_and_Osgood_Eds_Post_Developmental_Approaches_to_Childhood_Art_Bloomsburyhttps://www.gold.ac.uk/goldsmiths-press/publications/glitterworlds/Nicole SeymourA very short piece on glitter's usage in fishing lures. https://bloomsburyliterarystudiesblog.com/2022/09/fishing-lure-glitter-environment.htmlhttps://www.dukeupress.edu/aesthetics-of-excesshttps://read.dukeupress.edu/books/book/214/ShineThe-Visual-Economy-of-Light-in-AfricanAlso referenced: Kylie Crane, Plastic and ConcreteMater:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mater________/Website: https://mater.digital/ Hosted on Acast.

On September 11th in Fort Worth, Texas, the 10th annual Race For the Future (https://dentallabfoundation.org/news-events/race-for-the-future/) will take place to raise money for the Foundation For Dental Laboratory Technology (https://dentallabfoundation.org/). Barb is doing her 9th solo race and Elvis is teaming up with Mark Williamson and Bobby Kenney to form The Abutments. Go to dentallabfoundation.org and click on the DONATE TODAY button. There you need to log in or create an account. Then select “Race for the Future” and enter the name of either Barb Warner or the Abutments, then the amount you want to donate. Join the Race: https://fdlt.memberclicks.net/donor-form DONATE TODAY: https://fortworth.californiatriathlon.org/Race/Register/?raceId=99407 Before we get into this week's episode, Elvis and Barb want to give a big THANKS to Jensen Dental for hosting us at this year's Florida Dental Laboratory Association Symposium. A great meeting with a great company. Go show them some love and get some MIYO. First up we talk to two legends in our industry, Dany Sakr and Nick Azzara. Nick talks about what he is doing with a DSO group and reminisces about his time working with Dany. Dany talks about his journey from Lebanon to the US to learn dental technology in the early 80s, getting into digital early in it's existence, opening Sakr Dental Arts (https://sakrdentalarts.com/), and how they keep their lab relevant about just making crowns. Then we meet for the first time Ifet Ahmeti. Ifet learned the craft in Albania in 2009. Since then she has been in Switzerland to learn quality, Indiana to learn removables, and then opened her own in-office lab in Philadelphia. She has since moved to Tampa, Florida and opened another lab, Dentart Dental Studio (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063693726196). Ifet talks about managing clients when you are a solo technician, the importance of using the best materials, and why seeing patients allows you do make the best restoration. Then we wrap up all of the FDLA with past podcast guest, Whitney Coutney. Whitney has had a great journey from assistant to in-office tech in Kentucky, to full arch designer in Florida. In 2022 she wanted to get into education and partnered with Nowak Dental Supplies (https://www.nowakdental.com/) to on-board and teach labs the digital workflow. Whitney talks about how she handles labs doing a "software switch", helping technicians learn practical uses of either 3shape or exocad, and how she keeps up on the ever-evolving technology. *NOTE - Since recording with Whitney, she had taken a position back at Midwest Dental Arts (https://www.midwestdentalarts.com/) doing what she loves best.

In this episode of The Savvy Dentist Podcast, Dr. Jesse Green has a truly inspiring guest.  Bridget Sakr is a name that resonates with strength, resilience, and unwavering determination. Bridget's journey is one of profound transformation, from navigating personal tragedy to becoming a passionate advocate for change and community support. Her story is not just about overcoming adversity but also about channeling that experience into making a meaningful impact. Bridget Sakr's 11-year-old daughter Veronique was killed along with her three cousins by a drunk and drugged driver. The business leader and mother of two says she will never stop grieving but the tragedy has inspired her to “give back” to the community that enfolded her family in love and support. Bridget shares her insights on leadership, community engagement, and the power of purpose-driven action. Her experiences offer valuable lessons for all of us, both in our personal lives and our professional endeavors.  [3:14] - It's Unfathomable … Bridget recounts in detail the night she lost her daughter and 3 other children. [9:34] - The grieving process from a mother's perspective. [13:15] - An 11 year old girl who loved people and had the world at her feet. [18:35] - Forgiving the killer. [21:34] - Forgiving yourself. (something we can all learn to do) [25:55] - Creating a legacy within the community and honoring Veronique. [38:09] - Why we are never prepared for grief.

Last June the AMAZING people at Jensen Dental (https://jensendental.com/)gave us space in their fantastic booth to record some of the attendees. First up is Enja Dorchuluun from Sakr Dental Studios. Enja talks about her history at Sakr, how they are using automation in the lab, and getting ready to move the lab from 5 buildings to one. Since we were in the Jensen Dental (https://jensendental.com/) booth, we had to talk to the technician known for his amazing work with MIYO (https://miyoworld.com/), Bart Cothran. Bart chats with us about his journey into dental, owning his own lab, teaching MIYO to others, and some great tips for this amazing liquid ceramics. Then we wrap up the episode with a technician full of so much passion to giving back, he's going through the board of the FDLA for the second time. Fernando DeLeon was in dental school in Guatemala when he decided being a dental technician might be a better fit. Fernando talks about his passion for changing a life, his passion for giving back, and his passion on doing the best he can for his patients.

Javornický hřbitovní kostel sv. Kříže patří k nejstarším sakrálním stavbám ve Slezsku. Je to fascinující kombinace románského a gotického stavitelství pocházející z dob samotného počátku osídlení zdejšího kraje. Počátky kostela pravděpodobně sahají do poloviny 13. století a ze středověku se zde dodnes dochovaly krásné fresky prozrazující uměleckou dovednost i vnímání duchovního života z pozice našich dávných předků.

Ticks And Mites Remix (Sakré Edit) by Krunk Kulture

Electric Avenue - Peach Blok X Sakré by Krunk Kulture

Laila Shereen Sakr's book Arabic Glitch: Technoculture, Data Bodies, and Archives (Stanford UP, 2023) explores an alternative origin story of twenty-first century technological innovation in digital politics—one centered on the Middle East and the 2011 Arab uprisings. Developed from an archive of social media data collected over the decades following the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq, this book interrogates how the logic of programming technology influences and shapes social movements. Engaging revolutionary politics, Arab media, and digital practice in form, method, and content, Laila Shereen Sakr formulates a media theory that advances the concept of the glitch as a disruptive media affordance. She employs data analytics to analyze tweets, posts, and blogs to describe the political culture of social media, and performs the results under the guise of the Arabic-speaking cyborg VJ Um Amel. Playing with multiple voices that span across the virtual and the real, Sakr argues that there is no longer a divide between the virtual and embodied: both bodies and data are physically, socially, and energetically actual. Are we cyborgs or citizens—or both? This book teaches us how a region under transformation became a vanguard for new thinking about digital systems: the records they keep, the lives they impact, and how to create change from within. Laila Shereen Sakr is Assistant Professor of Media Theory and Practice at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Tugrul Mende holds an M.A in Arabic Studies. He is based in Berlin as a project coordinator and independent researcher. Learn more about your ad choices.

Radio Marija ir klausītāju veidots radio, kas nes Dieva Vārdu pasaulē. Radio Marija balss skan 24 stundas diennaktī. Šajos raidījumos klausītājiem kā saviem draugiem neatkarīgi no viņu reliģiskās pārliecības cenšamies sniegt Kristus Labo Vēsti – Evaņģēliju, skaidru katoliskās Baznīcas mācību. Cenšamies vairot lūgšanas pieredzi un sniegt iespēju ielūkoties visas cilvēces kultūras daudzveidībā. Radio Marija visā pasaulē darbojas uz brīvprātīgo kalpošanas pamata. Labprātīga savu talantu un laika ziedošana Dieva godam un jaunās evaņģelizācijas labā ir daļa no Radio Marija harizmas. Tā ir lieliska iespēja ikvienam īstenot savus talantus Evaņģēlija pasludināšanas darbā, piedzīvojot kalpošanas prieku.

What impact did the 2011 Arab Uprisings have on our use of technology? How should we approach, regulate and manage technologies as they emerge? And is it really possible to make political predictions by analysing tweets? We talk about cross-cultural communication, her book ‘Arabic Glitch: Techno Culture, Data Bodies and Archives' and using machine learning to predict the fall of Qaddafi. She explains what sentiment analysis actually means and how she grapples with existential anxiety. We also discuss why she sees the Arab World as the nexus of the technology era and not Silicon Valley. Laila Shereen Sakr, better known to some as VJ Um Amel, is an Egyptian-American digital media theorist and artist. She is the founder of the digital lab, R-Shief, which is “one of the largest repositories of Arabic-language tweets”. Laila is also an assistant professor of Film and Media Studies, as well as a Faculty Affiliate in the Feminist Studies Department at the University of California.Created & hosted by Mikey Muhanna, afikra Edited by: Ramzi RammanTheme music by: Tarek Yamani https://www.instagram.com/tarek_yamani/About Outline:Outline is a process-focused conversation that looks at guests' individual projects rather than their full bodies of work. The conversation sketches the journey of the project; the spark of curiosity that led to the project, the process of implementing the idea, the struggles that emerged throughout the implementation, and the aftermath of the project that includes new questions and new ideas. The name “Outline” stems from the idea of creating a retroactive project outline which is part of a broader emphasis on the process of curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking from a nuts and bolts perspective. Outline is not discipline-specific; the series will be held with artists, academics, writers, filmmakers, among others.

This week, new host Cindy Juyoung Ok speaks with Omar Sakr, who joins us from Sydney, Australia. Sakr tends to the in between, writing prose and poetry, and moving between poetic and political urges, and through queerness and diasporic experience. On this episode, we spend time with a series from Sakr's newest collection, Non-Essential Work (UQP, 2023). The series, “On Finding the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in Dante's Inferno,” reflects on and challenges Canto XXVIII, in which Dante comes upon the Prophet in the eighth level of hell. You can read three poems from the series in the June 2023 issue of Poetry. We also continue our new segment, in which guests answer a question from the void, and the episode ends with a surprise visitor. 

In this especially touching episode, we talk with Bridget Sakr, an amazing Godly woman whose daughter, Veronique, graduated to heaven early. She speaks of the Christ who sustains her and gives her purpose as she navigates this enormous turn in her life. Her faith will leave you forever changed. We pray her words give you the peace and assurance you seek

Do you struggle to forgive? Have you ever felt stuck in resentment, hurt and anger? Do you fall into the trap of withholding forgiveness because you feel justified in your pain? In this week's episode of The Genius Podcast, host Karen Doyle is joined by guest Bridget Sakr. Bridget and her family experienced unimaginable loss when a drunk driver ran down seven children one evening. Four of those children were killed and three injured. The two families who both lost half their family in one night, have become an extraordinary example of the power of forgiveness. This is a sacred story which shows on full display the fruit of a life embedded in Christ. And the power of forgiveness.

Valdības veidošanas process tuvojas uzvarošajām beigām, ministri izvēlēti, deklarācija ir gatava, bet balsojums Saeimā par Ministru Kabineta apstiprināšanu ieplānots rīt, 14. decembrī. Ceļš līdz tam ir bijis gana garš, jo decembris ir jau tūlīt pusē. Un nākamo gadu nāksies sākt bez apstiprināta valsts budžeta. Bet vismaz partijas ir daudz pārrunājušas darba plānus un tos ietvērušas apjomīgā deklarācijā. Kas paveikts un kā ieceres sakrīt ar partiju deklarētajiem plāniem, Krustpunktā diskutē Vidzemes Augstskolas padomes priekšsēdētājs, ekonomists Arnis Sauka, Latvijas Izglītības un zinātnes darbinieku arodbiedrības vadītāja Inga Vanaga, sabiedrisko attiecību uzņēmuma „Mediju tilts” līdzīpašnieks, politologs Filips Rajevskis un Latvijas Darba devēju konfederācijas prezidents, SIA „Karavela” līdzīpašnieks Andris Bite.  

Osada Jakub v obci Církvice na Kutnohorsku ve Středočeském kraji pravděpodobně kdysi stála na Svatojakubské cestě do Santiaga de Compostela. To by vysvětlovalo velkolepě pojatou románskou architekturu zdejšího kostela sv. Jakuba. Vzácně zachovalou románskou stavbu nově oživuje opravená a zpřístupněná věž i nově otevřená expozice.

Michael Hall and Chris Sakr, the co-founders of ShoHawk Media in Portland, Oregon, talk about the lessons they learned creating their feature documentary, Generation Freedom, how they collaborate on projects while having day jobs, and their approach to editing their content.  For transcripts, show notes, and more, go to Leadpages.com/podcast  About the PodcastThe Lead Generation Podcast features small business origin stories and marketing lessons for coaches, consultants, service professionals, and leads dependent entrepreneurs. Our goal is to fire you up for your own business and shorten your pathway to profit while you make a positive impact on your audience.  Top Takeaways from the Episode Validate your ideas with the right people. Test your ideas with your market, not friends and family who will likely sugar coat their feedback to the detriment of your project.  Even flops bear fruit. Lessons learned and skills developed in a failed project or launch often become the foundations for your next success.  Shorten your timeline of production. Taking too long to release a project may result in a disjointed bundle instead of a focused product from start to finish.  Collaborate with communication. Clearly understand your roles and commitments when working on projects with partners.  Edit ruthlessly, but don't delete anything. Give yourself permission to trim your content by saving extraneous material in a “for later” folder.
