Paolo Morganti, Stefania Conte"La porta dell'inganno"Morganti Editorehttps://www.morgantieditori.it/prodotto/paolo-morganti-%C2%B7-stefania-conte-la-porta-dellinganno/La Porta dell'inganno è il primo titolo di una saga di genere fantasy-storico.Siamo nel XXI secolo. All'interno della basilica di San Pietro in Roma entrano nel mondo, da una porta sino a quel momento sconosciuta, alcune creature straordinarie. Da cinque secoli vivevano relegate nel Mondo della Fantasia.Lo scisma fra la realtà e la fantasia era stato deciso nel 1563 dal Concilio di Trento: attraverso un potente rito d'esorcismo e con la costruzione di una pesante porta di marmo, commissionata da papa Pio IV a Michelangelo Buonarroti, la Chiesa aveva separato i due mondi e i relativi abitanti.In contemporanea all'apertura della porta in Vaticano, in diverse parti del pianeta se ne spalancano altre undici, di fatto varchi spazio-temporali.L'umanità è impaurita alla vista del basilisco, degli orchi, delle streghe, dei lupi mannari, degli elfi, dei folletti, del minotauro e di altri esseri favolosi apparsi dal nulla.Chi custodisce il segreto della Porta dell'inganno è il Vaticano, nelle figure del Papa, del Maestro delle Celebrazioni Liturgiche e del Prefetto del Dicastero per la Dottrina della Fede. Costoro, preoccupati che le apparizioni possano minare il potere della Chiesa, danno vita a una task force formata da suor Ildegarda Nicoli, dal fisico Enrico Masini, dallo sciamano Orazio Ballerini e dal colonnello Leonardo Von Brunegg.I quattro attraversano la Porta per sventare il pericolo che il mondo degli uomini possa essere invaso da esseri non più graditi. Nessuno di loro, però, è preparato a confrontarsi con le creature straordinarie, protette dal misterioso Maestro.Paolo Morganti è uno scrittore poliedrico. Nato a Milano, ha vissuto per molti anni a Verona e a Treviso. Oggi vive in Friuli Venezia Giulia. Ha cominciato la sua carriera letteraria come traduttore – per la collana Chestertoniana – delle opere di narrativa dello scrittore inglese Gilbert Keith Chesterton, di cui ha tradotto Il candore di padre Brown, La saggezza di padre Brown, L'incredulità di padre Brown, La sfera e la croce, Il ritorno di Don Chisciotte e Uomovivo, cui seguiranno altri titoli in fase di traduzione.A questi sono seguiti molti romanzi.Il suo primo lavoro, una sorta di divertimento letterario, è stato Angeli e salami (2009), parodia del celebre Angeli e demoni di Dan Brown. La sua serie più conosciuta è quella che vede come protagonisti lo speziale Martino da Madrisio e il pievano pre' Michele Soravito, che nel Cinquecento indagano tra delitti e misteri. Della fortunata saga sono finora usciti Il giardino del benandante (2012), Il calice di san Giovanni (2013), Il sigillo della strega (2014), Il bosco del cervo bianco (2015), L'ira dell'alchimista (2015), L'eretica (2018) e Il baratro delle anime (2019). Nel 2024 uscirà il titolo successivo, L'esercito delle ombre.Ai due personaggi sono dedicati anche due spin-off: Le memorie di pre' Michele, facezie e ricette di un prete goloso (2014) e Il taccuino di Martino da Madrìsio, memorie e ricette di uno speziale (2015).Due i romanzi gialli paranormali con protagonista il cuoco Paolo Lanfranchi, che risolve misteri paranormali avvenuti in Carnia: Le forme del Male (2016) e Il trillo del Diavolo (2018). Nel 2024 uscirà il seguito, intitolato La testa del serpente.Due i romanzi dedicati da Morganti al suo cane, L'imprescindibile Piero – la fuga (2016) e L'introvabile Piero – il rapimento (2017).Tra gli altri romanzi, il giallo che vede come protagonista il poliziotto Adalberto Maria Donati, Se ti acchiappo! (2020), a cui nel 2024 seguirà Shetland.Nel 2021 è uscito il romanzo surreale Fantasmi in viaggio.L'ultimo libro uscito, L'inganno dell'alchimista (2022), è un romanzo giallo e inaugura una nuova serie, con protagonista un libraio specializzato nella vendita di libri esoterici, Tancredi Colonna.Ha scritto anche alcuni racconti: L'isola dei morti, all'interno de La compagnia dei benandanti (2015), Il benandante e Cupido per l'antologia La Natura offesa (2020) e Il segreto del fricò di Flora, nell'antologia gialla Fricokiller (2021).Stefania Conte è nata a Venezia.Dopo gli studi universitari in psicologia, si è occupata di editoria lavorando in veste di editor, professione che svolge ancora oggi.Ha all'attivo la scrittura di romanzi e antologie di racconti. In ogni suo scritto – fantasy, giallo, storico o di formazione – il tema fondante è l'uomo e l'inestinguibile spinta a costruirsi un'identità stabile. Coltiva gli studi in antropologia culturale, storia delle religioni e filosofia.Per Morganti editori ha pubblicato la fortunata serie di romanzi che hanno come co-protagonisti i gatti: La gatta che vedeva le streghe (2013), La gatta che giocava con le farfalle (2014), Il gatto che apriva i cassetti (2014), Le gatte che mangiavano le patatine (2016), Il gatto che leggeva Dickens (2016), Il gatto che danzava con le fate (2017) e La gatta che cacciava i fantasmi (2019).Ha scritto due romanzi storici, L'ultimo canto del Codirosso (2015) e La stanza di Piera (2020), vincitore nel 2022 del Premio Tanzella.Ha pubblicato numerosi racconti: Il patto e la piuma nell'antologia La Compagnia dei benandanti (2015), Il cimitero delle anime dismesse nell'antologia Il cerchio delle streghe (2016), Maria delle bambole nell'antologia Le creature dell'acqua (2017), Domatore di farfalle e Gli occhi di Isolina per l'antologia La Natura offesa (2020).Per la collana Cattivi golosi, che racchiude racconti gialli di ispirazione gastronomica, ha scritto Una vita senza tempo per Fricokiller (2021) e La cucitura infernale per Enokiller.Ha partecipato ai romanzi corali L'uomo dei sogni reali (2020) e Il mistero delle nove perle (2021).Ora si sta dedicando a una trilogia urban-fantasy.

We start with a Romney x East Friesian cross fleece before heading to the mill for some wool work. We end up back at the skirting table with some stunning moorit Shetland wool.

1116. This week, we clarify the origins of the word "Schnauzer" and why it may mean "snout," "growler," or "mustache." Then, in honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day, we look at the true origins of the word "scallywag," which, believe it or not, isn't from pirates but may be related to Shetland ponies. Then, we look at why we use both "used to" and "use to" and how they differ in questions and negatives.The "used to" segment was written by Natalie Schilling, a professor emerita of linguistics at Georgetown University in Washington, DC, and who runs a forensic linguistics consulting firm.

Salve avventurieri! In questa oneshot esplorerete il mondo di Vaesen, portatoci dal nostro DM Aaron!Dalla sede di Edimburgo, sussidiaria scozzese della Società, i PG leggono la lettera inviata loro da Padre Logan, prete della diocesi di Aberdeen, nel quale descrive strani eventi che si stanno manifestando nel piccolo villaggio di Fisherman's Harbour, nelle isole Shetland. Il pesce, unica fonte di reddito degli abitanti, senza essere scomparso ed una strana canzone primordiale sembra scaturire dal mare stesso. Nonostante la comunità abbia chiesto l'arrivo di un esorcista, Padre Logan ha pensato subito alla Società, essendone lui un ex-membro. Sì, perché anche lui, come i PG, è un "figlio del Giovedì" ed anche lui riesce a vedere quel che normalmente è celato all'occhio umano. Anche lui può vedere i Vaesen, e pensa che questi strani fenomeni siano causati proprio da una di queste creature...Potete trovare i video di #IntavernadaKurt su:●⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠●⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠●⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠●⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Telegram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠●⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

People living and working around Lough Neagh in Northern Ireland say pollution in the lake has become worse over the hot summer this year. The Lough supplies about forty per cent of Northern Ireland's drinking water and for the past couple of years it's been covered with a toxic blue green algae, which has grown due to pollution from agriculture, broken water treatment facilities and industrial waste. The algae's also had a big impact on the fishing industry.All this week we're looking at animal feed. There's a drive to source and grow more of it in the UK, especially as new regulations come in to tackle deforestation linked with growing soy for animal feed. We visit a traditional feed mill in Gloucestershire which makes a feed mix from local wheat, oats, peas and beans.The island of Unst in Shetland is the most northerly inhabited island in Britain. It's also considered to be the true home of the Shetland pony and is the venue of the most northerly agricultural show in the UK. The Unst Show has been going for more than 150 years and draws crowds from across Shetland and beyond to see cows, sheep, poultry and ponies being exhibited.

Socks: Using Patons Kroy sock in the colorway Blue Striped Ragg. Turned heel and finished gusset of second sock. Spacetime 18: Heidi Kirrmaier. Using my handspun Flowers From My Garden. On hold. Rag Rugs: Finished threading the reed plan to start weaving today. I'm making two 24”x36” rugs. Deer Scarf: Ben and his roommates rescued a concrete deer lawn ornaments. I am making a red scarf for the deer to wear this holiday.  Weaving Studio: It's a work in progress. I brought two prints to the framer yesterday that will go in the studio. Kelly's Projects Almost finished with Lace and Fade Boxy by Joji Locatelli. I'm using a merino silk handspun along with a skein of Sincere Sheep Vernal (silk/linen). I had a mistake in the lace pattern somehow because my stitch counts got off so I ripped back about 4 inches and am back on track. Fireweed Sock sock two is on the second foot. A definite candidate for finishing during the two PD days at school before students start.  Continued Combing the remaining CVM. I have two-pitch wool combs from Red Barn Farm from long ago. I had about 1.5 lbs left of the fleece that I plan to comb. So far I have about 150 g of combed top. With about 50% waste I figure this is about half done. The remainder of the fleece is very sticky and needs another wash.  Washing and Processing Ernest (2017 fleece) I've rewashed two more batches of about a pound each. These batches are less matted and will be easier to pick. I also started carding the first batch. All have been through the carder once. I decided to add silk to the second round of carding in this batch. My plan is to prep this so that I have a fall/winter spinning project.  Natural Dyeing Pelargonium leaves–orange leaning beige on CA Red fleece and barely beige on BL cross fleece. Purpleleaf plum leaves–pink leaning beige on Tunis yarn and Shetland from suint bath experiment. On both I mordanted the yarn with alum. Future plans from my yard—fig leaves, toyon leaves/twigs, ceanothus leaves/twigs. Also plan to try some dried tan oak leaves from a long ago camping trip. Summer Spin In  Now until September 1. All spinning and making with handspun yarn counts. Preparing fleeces also counts. We're close to the end! Monterey County Fair Wool Show See page 31 of the exhibitor handbook for these details.

Orknøyane og Shetland var heilt norskspråklege i mellomalderen, som andre norske landsdelar. Språket måtte vike for engelsk på 1700-talet, men mange norrøne ord har overlevd i engelsken til moderne tid, og mykje norrøn folketru har overlevd – ofte knytt til norrøne nemningar. I denne episoden skal vi sjå på korleis tradisjonen om haugbuen og innbrot i gravhaugar har klart seg på Orknøyane.

Claire de Mézerville López is joined by co-host, Professor Emanuela Biffi, for the “Powerful Intersection Between Restorative Justice and Art” podcast series, a special initiative by the IIRP together with the European Forum for Restorative Justice (EFRJ). Art has the unique ability to connect and facilitate dialogue, making it a powerful tool in restorative justice practices. Throughout the series, we examine how artists from different disciplines and cultural backgrounds use their creative expression to foster communication, build empathy, and potentially repair harm. Each episode highlights a different aspect of this intersection, featuring conversations with artists who have contributed to restorative justice  We are joined by Dr. Clair Aldington as she discusses her research on integrating visual and movement-based languages into the restorative justice process. She co-founded Space to Face, an award-winning charity in Scotland, emphasizing how creative expression can facilitate healing dialogues and trauma articulation. Discover how Dr. Aldington's work extends beyond verbal communication, using art as a catalyst for emotional connections and solidarity between individuals involved in conflict. She reflects on pivotal moments where art objects symbolized reconciliation and inspired lasting change in both victims and offenders. Her research challenges traditional Western practices by advocating for more inclusive, visually oriented approaches to restorative justice. Dr. Aldington has authored several academic articles and book chapters regarding her practice and research. She is the co-founder of the award-winning Space2face restorative practices and arts charity in Shetland, Scotland, and a co-facilitator of an international restorative circle group, the Encounter of the Encounters, in cases of political violence. Her work has pioneered the use of art and design approaches within restorative practices. Specifically, how creative approaches can aid dialogue and the articulation of trauma, particularly in cases of serious crime, thereby improving the accessibility of restorative processes. Dr. Aldington holds a doctorate in Design and Restorative Justice and a master's in Contemporary Art and Music. She is a freelance researcher and practitioner with over twenty years of experience in the field of restorative practices. Dr. Aldington is a keynote speaker at the upcoming 2025 IIRP World Conference, Artful Integration: Exploring the Art and Science of Restorative Practices. Emanuela is the program coordinator at the EFRJ, an international network organization that brings together about 300 members dedicated to research, policy, and practice of restorative justice in the criminal justice system and beyond.  She joined the EFRJ team in September 2013, working as a project officer in different EU-funded projects on access to restorative justice, justice and security in intercultural settings, restorative justice training, child victims, and arts. Among other responsibilities at the EFRJ, she organizes its main international events (conferences, seminars, webinars, and art festival), coordinates proposals for EU-funded and other projects, and guides the overall management of working groups and committees within the EFRJ membership. Originally from Italy, Emanuela studied Liberal Arts at the University College Maastricht (The Netherlands) and University of Gaborone (Botswana) with a focus on social psychology and criminal law and the Master program in Criminology at KU Leuven (Belgium). Tune in to explore the challenges and rewards of training artists and facilitators in restorative practices. By highlighting the potential of creative mediums to bridge cultural and linguistic divides, we uncover universal avenues for healing and understanding.

Send us a textThe line between celebration and catastrophe blurs deliciously in Dynasty's "Birthday Party" episode as Baby Blake's second birthday becomes the perfect storm of family drama, business betrayal, and romantic complications. At the center of this lavish spectacle stands a birthday party that defies all reason – complete with a functioning train, Shetland ponies, jugglers, a poolside mermaid, and a terrifying six-foot jack-in-the-box. While the toddler guest of honor appears utterly shell-shocked, the adults orbit around him with their own agendas. Jeff dons clown makeup (poorly) to play "Mr. Clown," unwittingly attracting Kirby's attention and stoking Adam's jealousy. Meanwhile, Fallon battles mysterious headaches while putting on a brave face for her son's celebration. he true fireworks happen away from the party grounds. Krystal delivers a palm-stinging slap to Tracy's face after Tracy suggests they're cut from the same cloth – secretaries who slept their way to the top. Alexis drops a bombshell hint about having a fourth child, sending ripples of speculation through the Carrington dynasty. Kirby takes shooting lessons, proving herself a surprisingly accurate markswoman with potential targets in mind. And just when Blake believes he's secured a business triumph that will catapult Denver Carrington above Colby Co, his $100 million deal with Rashid Ahmed is exposed on national television as funding arms for international conflict. The episode culminates with Fallon and Jeff announcing their intention to remarry despite their palpable lack of chemistry, setting up future complications against the backdrop of Blake's unfolding international scandal. Like all great Dynasty episodes, "Birthday Party" serves up the perfect cocktail of wealth, betrayal, unexpected alliances, and consequences that will reverberate through the lives of Denver's elite. Don't miss this quintessential glimpse into the golden age of primetime soap operas!

In today's podcast, we're heading slightly beyond the Tudor world — north to Scotland — to uncover the story of a young queen who deserves far more recognition than she gets. On this day in 1486, Queen Margaret of Denmark, consort of James III of Scotland, died at just 30 years old. But her brief life left a permanent mark on British history. Because of Margaret, Orkney and Shetland became — and remained — part of Scotland. A forgotten dowry, a pledged territory, and a queen who quietly changed the map of the British Isles. But there's so much more to her than diplomacy.  Join me as I delve into the fascinating story of Margaret of Denmark — her Danish roots, her turbulent royal marriage, her influence on Scottish politics, and the tragic mystery of her early death. Had you heard of Margaret before? What do you think of her impact? Let me know in the comments below!

A new strategy for tackling rural crime across Wales will offer greater protection for people and wildlife in the countryside, according to the Welsh government. Priority areas include tackling damage to ancient monuments, or heritage crime, and attacks on livestock, with new awareness courses for animal owners. A new ban on the use of lead in ammunition has been announced by the UK government, in a bid to stop the toxic metal contaminating fields and waterways. Shot containing more than 1% lead and bullets with a lead content of more than 3% are to be prohibited. It's a long-awaited move that ministers say will protect iconic wildlife and improve water quality. There'll be a three year transition period, but conservation groups say they'd like to see it introduced straight away.All week we're taking a deep dive into the UK's shellfish industry. Almost 90% of the mussels produced in Scotland are grown in Shetland.  We visit a farm which produces 1000 tonnes a year on long ropes dotted on 24 sites around the islands.  Should British farms and supermarkets have to pay the travel and visa costs of seasonal staff? The idea's been suggested as a way of protecting workers travelling to the UK to pick fruit and vegetables, some of whom are taking out loans to get here, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation. The Employer Pays Principle feasibility study, jointly commissioned by the government and the Seasonal Worker Taskforce, looked into the idea which has support from some retailers and recruitment agencies. The National Farmers Union however, has concerns about the challenges growers would face if forced to cover these additional costs, from job cuts to reduced production.

Dr Helen Geake and Martyn Williams are joined by Time Team archaeologist Jackie McKinley. She's been part of the team investigating a potential Viking boat burial in the most northern part of the UK. She gives us a sense of what it was like working in driving rain and high winds, as well as the clues which could point to a Viking boat being hidden beneath the soil. Archaeologists have discovered evidence of a Roman temporary camp in The Netherlands. It's been found north of the known frontier of the empire. What does it mean for our understanding of the Romans? Dr Saskia Stevens from Utrecht University will shed some light on her research.

In our end of season round table episode my three guests each discuss a topic of interest.The topics under discussion are:How the approach to rural EV infrastructure is changingThe second hand market (how experiences may differ and ways to attract and better support new drivers that come in through this channel)Will increased range, new charging solutions, and familiarity with EVs lead to lower demand for en-route charging? If so how will this affect CPOs?And I will be asking the question: Charger booking. Do we need this?Guests:Gemma Robinson: Gemma Robinson is the EV Infrastructure Project Manager at the Highlands and Islands Regional Transport Partnership (HITRANS). She loves working with five partner Councils and Shetland on their charging network strategy and delivery across the region, particularly as the Scottish charging network is changing so dramatically. Her drive comes from providing a just/fair opportunity for everyone to safeguard the planet, with rural and accessible charging a particular passion. Current project details: https://hitrans.org.uk/projects/ev-infrastructure-shared-service/Ed Walsh: Ed is Head of Product at Zapmap. His focus is ensuring Zapmap's app meets the needs of EV drivers and creates a sustainable business that continues to accelerate the shift to low carbon mobility. He also leads partnerships, exploring ways that Zapmap's capabilities can combine with those of others, such as Hive, to deliver value to an even wider EV audienceBen MacDonald: Ben has worked in various sustainability focussed roles throughout his career. He found himself somewhat disheartened attending a business and sustainability conference (read greenwashing conference) in Prague and so he decided that his efforts were best spent teaching Geography (sustainability) and Maths in schools in SE London. During this time he also worked with local communities on air quality issues. In 2016 he didn't buy a second hand Nissan Leaf because he couldn't charge from home. This began his entrepreneurial journey which led to him founding Nodum which is addressing the fundamental inequalities associated with the charging gap.https://www.nodum.co.ukThis season of the podcast is sponsored by Zapmap, the free to download app that helps EV drivers search, plan, and pay for their charging.Links in the show notes:Bristol gets an electric bus fleet - Cool thing.A totally recyclable bag - Cool thingEpisode produced by Arran Sheppard at Urban Podcasts: https://www.urbanpodcasts.co.uk(C) 2019-2025 Gary Comerford Support me: Patreon Link: http://www.patreon.com/evmusingsKo-fi Link: http://www.ko-fi.com/evmusings The Books:'So, you've gone electric?' on Amazon :

Shetland, Scotland native and independent journalist Jen Stout was in Russia in late February 2022 when the war with Ukraine broke out and quickly left for a border post in southern Romania to cover the great flood of refugees who were fleeing the fighting. Weeks later she entered Ukraine to report first-hand from the front lines and cities across the country. A writer with a great sense of empathy, Jen's main interest was not military strategy or international politics, but the Ukrainian people – their indomitable spirit, their poetic sensibilities  their hopes and fears. Her perspective is from the ground and her stories are filed from night trains, birthday parties, military hospitals and bunkers. Her very moving book is entitled: “Night Train to Odessa: Covering the  Human Cost of the Russia's War.”Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

John Cena's back on top… and Kevin Nash has thoughts. In this week's episode, Big Kev breaks down the shockwaves of WrestleMania and why he thinks the ending was more “Hogan in '96” than the crowd may have realized. From kayfabe power dynamics to merch-moving politics, it's all under the microscope as Kevin sets the table for what should come next. But before we get into the squared circle, we take a cinematic detour. Michael Mann's Heat, Kevin Bacon playing a literal devil's bounty hunter, and how many rewatches does it take to admit Collateral might not hold up? Kev's got opinions, Sean's got DVD nostalgia, and somehow Al Pacino ends up with a jobber's gimmick. Welcome to Kliq This. The boys also break down what it really means to “look like a star” in today's wrestling climate—whether you're a 6'10” killer or a 5'1” flipper. Kev doesn't mince words when comparing Rey Mysterio's legacy to modern high-flyers, and yes, someone ends up being called a Shetland pony. Is the WWE pricing out the working-class fan? Is Heyman really the MacGuffin that holds the industry together? And why do modern entrances feel more like Coachella sets than fight-night spectacles? Kev walks through the economics, the nostalgia, and the fire (literally) of what makes a great entrance… and why Diesel's never gotten the love it deserved. And finally, WrestleMania predictions fly fast and furious—including a huge twist involving Cena, Cody, and Paul Heyman. Kev sees the chessboard clearly, even if it ends with someone becoming a “Heyman bottom.” If that line doesn't get your attention, nothing will. Watch now—before the markets open.

Knitting and wool are so essential in the Faroe Islands that in the early 1800s, exports of sweaters and socks made up about half of the economy. Today, the nation of about 55,000 people has 8+ knitwear brands, 2 active spinning mills, and 70,000 ewes. Sissal Kristiansen, the owner of knitwear company Shisa Brand, started an initiative called The Wool Islands to celebrate the heritage and potential of Faroese fiber. “We owe it to our past and our future to utilise the natural resources that we have, and on the Faroe Islands, that is wool,” she says. The first project of the Wool Islands was a 15-minute documentary that takes viewers on a sweeping journey through the Faroese landscape, meeting shepherds, knitters, and of course sheep. Available to watch free on YouTube and the project's website, the film welcomes you to the small country, which is located in the North Atlantic between Shetland and Iceland. Today, the economy of the Faroe Islands relies on tourism; the film shows how enticing a destination it is for knitters, spinners, and textile lovers. Sheep and knitting are everywhere in the Faroe Islands, but maintaining the quality and value of the local wool depends on visitors, locals, knitters, and consumers to recognize its unique importance. Drawing on the natural colors produced by the native sheep, Faroese knitting patterns are characterized by graphic, highly contrasting stranded patterns that generally carry floats over less than five stitches. Sissal's designs for Shisa Brand feature bold traditional motifs in contemporary silhouettes and scales. Some of Shisa Brand's iconic garments feature black-and-white geometric patterns, and the ready-to-wear items are handmade by local handknitters using Faroese wool.
