Rev. Cyril A. Stevens – Sermon 0988A recorded on April 14, 1985 teaching from Romans 8:1-17 – Partnering with the Holy Spirit. Pastor Cyril A. Stevens emphasizes the vital importance of partnering fully with the Holy Spirit, rather than treating Him as a “silent partner” in one’s life. Stevens illustrates this through an analogy of a…

Matt Stevens, designer and illustrator, talks about The Batman, a unique take on the Bruce Wayne and Batman mythology brought to life by Matt Reeves and starring Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Jeffrey Wright, Colin Farrell, Paul Dano, and Andy Serkis. This 2022 version has less of the comic-y qualities that Joel Schumacher instilled in the 90s versions, but has a gritty, frightening ambiance closer to David Fincher's Se7en. In addition to The Batman, Stevens also talks about Good Movies as Old Books which reimagines movies as book covers.-Matt Stevens found himself frustrated with his current job as creative director at a brand agency, so he (literally) went back to the drawing board with an illustration project that turned out to be the perfect fit, designing a Nike Air Max shoe every day. After doing 50 drawings, he had initially chose to end the project, but aimed for 100 AirMax1-a-day drawings that he'd showcase in an art book, accompanying website, and exhibition, also proved rewarding. To date, he's created multiple, self-initiated projects, including the Good Movies as Old Books project, now a book and postcard set available from Chronicle.https://www.goodmoviesasoldbooks.com/https://www.hellomattstevens.com/https://www.hellomattstevens.com/store/batman-xwms5https://www.hellomattstevens.com/store/batman-xwms5-gnyzehttps://www.hellomattstevens.com/book-covers-varioushttps://www.hellomattstevens.com/blog/process-the-rookie-handbook-Taking Side Projects to the Next Level, HOW magazinehttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1tXNGjxQv4jwbf77DJOffXpENtbJwcPPH/view?usp=sharingMatt Stevens on The Great Discontenthttps://thegreatdiscontent.com/interview/matt-stevens/-The Batman (2022)https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1877830/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkeshttps://deadline.com/2024/10/dynamic-duo-movie-robins-dc-1236105077/-Batman and Se7en, the connectionshttps://x.com/JasonTselentis/status/176347788844597248https://www.vulture.com/2012/07/46-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-batman-films.htmlhttps://whatculture.com/film/superman-and-batman-team-up-movie-set-for-2015-Designers, artists, and media discussedSaul Basshttps://eyeondesign.aiga.org/design-history-101/Kurt Cobainhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_CobainPrismacolorhttps://www.prismacolor.com/-Other movies and shows discussed, alphabetical listBatman (1989)Batman Begins (2005)Batman Returns (1992)Batman v Superman (2016)Breaking Bad (2008-2013)Citizen Kane (1941)The Crow (1994)The Dark Knight (2008)The Dark Knight Rises (2012)Network (1976)Peacemaker (2022-)The Penguin (2024-)Se7en (1995)Thunderbolts* (2025)

Girl Power con Fernanda Varela y Evelyn Stevens, 12 de junio del 2025 by TXS Plus

Cubs Rally in 9th to Win 11–9 in Thriller over TinCaps In the top of the 9th, trailing by one, Carter Trice launched a two-run homer—his 7th of the season—to give the South Bend Cubs a 10–9 lead over the Fort Wayne TinCaps. Felix Stevens, on a rehab assignment, followed with a solo blast to center, capping a thrilling three-run rally and securing an 11–9 Cubs victory—their second straight 11-run performance. South Bend out-hit Fort Wayne 14–12 in the back-and-forth slugfest. Catcher Ariel Armas had a standout game, going 3-for-5 with two doubles, four RBIs, and a stolen base. Edward Alvarez added three hits and two RBIs, while Stevens chipped in with two hits of his own. The Cubs offense struck in bunches, scoring four in the 3rd, and one run each in the 4th and 5th. They plated two more in the 6th before their ninth-inning heroics. Despite giving up nine runs in the first five innings, South Bend’s bullpen dominated late. Chase Watkins threw 2.1 scoreless innings, and Johzan Oquendo closed the door with five strikeouts in two hitless innings to earn the win. An electric, comeback-filled win in this battle of Indiana’s minor league rivals. Next Game: Wednesday at 6:45 PM on Sports Radio WSBT.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

 Karen Saves The Universe: Part 3Karen Embarks on a cure campaign.Based on a post by LingeringAfterthought, in 3 parts. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories.Karen sighed, "Might as well. Let's go kill the libido of an entire civilization, Holland."Holland took her arm and soon the cell where she was held disappeared and another space formed around them. Captain Hemsworth and several crew members from the ship stood nearby, as well as Ensign Holland who was still holding her arm, reassuringly. Looking around, Karen saw that they were in what appeared to be a sound-booth of sorts. One crewmember activated some equipment and moved one protruding tentacle closer to Karen's mouth and another toward Captain Hemsworth's."Are we ready, Ellis?" Captain Hemsworth asked, clearing his throat. Ellis nodded and stepped back from the tentacles. Hemsworth tapped the end of the tentacle and a booming noise reverberated around the room. He cleared his throat several more times and straightened his collar. "People of Priam! Your deliverance has come! You sent us forth among the stars to find the cure to the horrid addiction of filth that has infiltrated our minds and we have not failed you! We have dedicated our lives to this effort, foregone having families, and any comforts of home to bring you this salvation! Behold; The Karen!" he proclaimed, gesturing for Karen to speak."Um; hi?" Karen said, unsurely. Hemsworth glanced at Ellis who was reading some type of display. Ellis frowned and motioned for her to continue speaking. "Um; my name is Karen;""Hi Karen;” several crew members responded unanimously before Captain Hemsworth cut them off with a gesture."Um; I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to say. I heard you're all having some troubles. I'm sorry. I know what that's like. I've had some troubles, too. I married the wrong person; someone who didn't really love me. I wasn't brave and I tried to avoid trouble too much. I had four kids, but they grew up seeing me treated badly, so they don't really see me as being worth much; if they don't need me to be a mom anymore, what good am I to them? I love them, but; I wish I had done more with my life. Now, I'm getting a divorce; and now that I'm in my 50's, I'm not young and beautiful anymore, so it's like I'm invisible to most people. My body hurts more than it used to; and I'm afraid most days. I don't know what's going to happen to me. Everything keeps changing and I don't know where I belong. I feel like I've failed all the time. But, they said that maybe I could help you, so; I hope I can help make things better for you. I'd like to see something good come out of all this," Karen said, wiping some tears off her cheeks. Holland stepped next to her and took her hand. She smiled and leaned her head on his shoulder."Ellis?" Hemsworth asked.Ellis looked up from the display, a disconcerted expression on his face. "I don't understand;” he murmured, leaning down and feverishly working on the equipment. "They're hearing it. I know they're hearing it;”"It's not working? She just spoke more than it took to knock out the entire bridge crew! What do you mean it's not working?" Hemsworth said, frustrated. Karen looked at Holland, who simply shrugged.Captain Hemsworth frowned with determination and motioned to Karen, "Speak again. Louder. Talk about the cobb salad! Men, brace yourselves!" he ordered."Cobb salad?" Karen repeated, surprised. "Oh, well, um; it's just yummy. It's got hard boiled eggs, tomatoes, bacon, and avocado on a bed of lettuce; chives and bleu cheese over the top is good, too. The nice thing is that all the ingredients are put into neat little rows across the lettuce, so you can choose exactly what you want in each bite! It's not just a big mess like other salads. You know, I could make you one ; do you guys have avocadoes?" she said enthusiastically, looking to Holland.Holland immediately began looking up something on his hand-held computer. "Av-o-ca-does; do they yield their young willingly, or do we need to;""What the hell is going on???" Captain Hemsworth yelled, grabbing Holland's ear and looking inside. "Holland! You're not wearing protection! Why aren't you unconscious on the floor?""Oh, um; they were kind of uncomfortable, and they made it hard to hear what she was remembering, and;""You Remembered With The Karen? What Is Wrong With You?" Hemsworth shouted, before calming himself. "Momoa, get some caffeline ready. I need to hear her again," he said, bracing himself as he pulled what looked like slugs out of his ears. "Speak again about the salad;”"Okay, uh; most like to eat it with a vinaigrette? I think that gets to be a bit too much if there's bleu cheese on top, though. Sometimes I'll get it with ranch or something creamy because then;""What the hell, Holland! What did you do to The Karen? I barely feel anything!" Hemsworth yelled, grabbing Holland by the uniform."Um; I don't know; we just talked and remembered; you know, she's really nice, if you get to;""Dammit, You've Broken The Karen, Holland! How Are We Supposed To;" Captain Hemsworth yelled until he was interrupted by a knock nearby.Lieutenant Ellis activated a control on his display and a hole formed in the wall of the room. An assembly of Priamites entered the room, as smoothly as if they were rolled in on a platform together. The crew of the Onan immediately fell prostrate on the floor before them. Karen, unwilling to lie face-down on a floor she hadn't cleaned herself, looked around uncomfortably and gave the assembly a small wave. One Priamite raised her hand to return the gesture but was quickly stopped by her neighbor."Welcome, crew of the Onan," one of the assembly said, followed by the rest of the assembly nodding agreeably. "We are most appreciative of all your; efforts. We realize that you have dedicated several of your lifetimes to freeing our civilization from the throes of pornographic addiction, and for your many sacrifices, we thank you," the speaker said, then glanced around uncomfortably at the others. "Most unexpectedly, ah; while the Eros Curse was most distressing to the initial generations, the subsequent generations acclimated to it rather quickly. Then, as fashions changed, the Eros Curse became more of a joke, really; dance mixes were made, memes;”"Excuse me?" Captain Hemsworth said, lifting his face from the floor."I mean, sure, the Eros Curse is still out there. It's just that it's just become something people live with. It doesn't take over our lives, but some indulge in it a little after the kids have gone to bed for the night. I mean, it's not really such a big deal. It adds a little spice to an otherwise boring life, you know?""Boring life?" Hemsworth repeated, rising to his feet. "Are you telling me that all of Priam just walks around, living life, thinking about; that?""Well, yes, but we are very grateful for all you and your crew have done for us. We express our thanks to all the crews of the ships we loaded up with uptight intellectuals that were determined to rid our civilization of; alternative thoughts. We have come here to present you and your crew with a commemorative plaque for all your;""Is this some kind of joke?" Hemsworth said, pacing around. "I've been trekking throughout the universe looking for a cure to your abhorrent lust-filled thoughts and now you just want to give me a plaque for a lifetime of sacrifice because you don't see a problem with your disgusting sticky existence?""Well, there's no need to kink-shame;” the assembly spokesperson muttered, "Honestly, you never wondered why they sent the most uptight assholes on the planet off on a vague 'mission' and never really asked for progress reports?""I don't believe this;” Hemsworth said, his eyes bulging, nostrils flaring. "We've sacrificed our lives for nothing???""Oh, I see where this is going;” Karen said to Holland, who seemed to be trying to assume a duck-and-cover position."How could you do this to us???" Hemsworth yelled."Use the diaphragm for projection, baby; you can do it;” Karen encouraged."I Want; To See; The Manager!" Captain Hemsworth yelled at the top of his lungs, causing a feedback loop to screech throughout the room. The last thing Karen saw before falling unconscious was the sight of every Priamite in the room projectile vomiting on each other. The stench was overwhelming.Karen's Humility.Karen lifted her face off the bathroom floor, overwhelmed by the stench. She brushed off a spare piece of toilet paper stuck to her face, as she tried to remember what had happened. Her lungs burned from what she slowly recognized as pepper spray. She gathered her purse and stumbled out of the stall and looked at herself in the mirror. Her eyes were red, and a bruise was swelling where her cheek hit the floor. She splashed some cold water on her face and wiped off the makeup that streaked in the process. This was Snookers; not Baker's Pie. She had just ripped a kid a new asshole for not having cobb salad on the menu. What was she doing with her life?Upon exiting the bathroom, she ran into Travis the Waiter, who looked like he had just splashed water on his face, too. Dread and unease filled his face upon seeing her before it was quickly masked into concern. "Oh, um; are you okay? Can I get you some ice for that?" he asked, looking at the bruise on her cheek."What? Oh, no, honey. I'm okay. I just fell," she said, before meeting his eyes and taking his hand in hers. "Travis, I'm so sorry about the way I treated you. That was awful, and I have no excuse. You didn't deserve that.""It's okay; it happens," Travis said, carefully."It shouldn't, though. I was wrong, and I'm sorry. Would you mind if I just gave you some cash to cover the meal and snuck out of here? God knows what that group of biddies will gossip about when I go out there like this," Karen said, gesturing to herself."Yeah, that should be no problem," Travis said, taking the money she offered. "Are you sure you're okay?"Karen nodded, "I'm fine. I've just got some things to do. You've got a sweet heart, honey. Keep listening to it."Karen swallowed nervously as she went up the walkway to the small suburban house. She hadn't called before coming. It was rude of her not to call ahead of time, but then again, she was pretty sure that her number had been blocked. She didn't know if her oldest son had gone "no contact" or just "low contact" with her, but she was pretty sure her daughter-in-law would threaten to call the police within five minutes of her ringing the doorbell. Nevertheless, when she got up to the door, Karen put her finger forward and rang the bell."What do you want, Karen?" Hailey's terse voice came through the doorbell."Oh; you got one of those camera doorbell things; that's nice;” she began, unsure of how to say what was in her heart without a face in front of her."What do you want?" Hailey repeated."Um; I wanted to talk with you;""The last time you wanted to 'talk' with me, you just wanted to see my kids while you criticized my inadequate housekeeping, my inept child-rearing, and my unattractive post-pregnancy body. So, forgive me if I'd prefer not to have a heart-to-heart, Karen," Hailey interrupted."You're right," Karen said, looking at the dark circle holding the doorbell's camera. "I did that. I did that. I have not been kind to you. When Cal Jr. brought you home, I was not welcoming. I should have been; because you deserved that. You deserved it because you made my son happy. You have made him happier than I've ever known him to be; and that's what I've always wanted for him. If you were just like me, if you did all the things that I obnoxiously told you to do; he wouldn't be half as happy as he is with you; just as you are. If for no other reason than my son's happiness, you have my gratitude. I'm sorry that I've wasted the chances you've given me to know you better. You're brave and confident and funny. Honestly, I think you're the person I wished I could have been at your age. I'm sorry for a lot of things but being wasteful; saying thoughtless things that hardened people's hearts; those are the things that I wish I could take back the most. So, um;” Karen said, checking her notes on her phone's notepad to make sure she got all the points she wanted, "that's pretty much it. Oh, and I put that chocolate mousse recipe you liked on this index card so you can make it, but feel free to call me if you can't read my writing; or if you, you know, ever need anything."Karen nodded at the doorbell and started back down the walkway toward her car, blinking back tears. She had wasted so much time, so many chances. She didn't know if there was a point in trying again now, but she had to. She wasn't getting any younger.As she reached the end of the walkway, she was nearly knocked over by two little bodies running into her and grabbing onto her legs. Tears fell freely down her cheeks as she bent down to pick up her grandchildren, kissing them until they tried to wiggle away. As they started simultaneously telling her everything they had been doing while she was away, Karen's eyes drifted up to the doorway where her pierced and tattooed daughter-in-law stood. "Thank you" Karen mouthed silently over her grandchildren's backs.Karen pushed open the doors of Forest Glenn Hospice Care, her bag stuffed with an array of items and went up to the front desk. "Karen Weaver. I'm here for Dana Stevens," she said.The new girl at the reception desk looked at Karen with quiet unease. "Um; Ms. Stevens has requested only visitors who have;" Karen smirked and lifted the wig off her head, revealing her clean-shaven head. "Oh! Great! Go right in," she said, relieved.The corridor of the hospice facility was peaceful and quiet; exactly the kind of thing the old Dana would hate. Entering her room, Karen looked for any signs that other visitors had been to see Dana but saw nothing. Dana was napping again, her face drawn and gaunt, but thankfully not in pain. Karen put down her bag in a nearby chair and took out a rolled-up electronic piano keyboard and unfurled it on a table next to the hospital bed. As she was on her hands and knees trying to find an outlet to use, she heard Dana clear her throat. "What the hell is that?" she asked, smirking as she nodded at the keyboard."Your afternoon's entertainment. I ordered it on Amazon; you should have seen the bitchy reviews. Reminded me of you. Mind you, I haven't played since Cal got rid of the piano when it didn't fit in the Brooklyn apartment, so you're in for a treat," Karen said, rubbing her hands together and moving her glasses on top of her head so she could see the keyboard controls."Calvin Carmichael in a Brooklyn apartment. My god. What was it that emptied the Carmichael family coffers after they stole you away from me, again?" Dana asked, her sunken eyes taking in every detail of Karen's face as she hovered over the keyboard."Bernie Madoff; cleaned 'em dry. His parents were ever so shocked when they had to sell their properties and move to Florida," Karen said. "They weren't poor; they had enough to retire, but; they were horridly middle class.""Karma's a bitch," Dana said, pushing back against her pillows to sit up more. "Kare; I'm so sorry I didn't talk with you when you came back to the apartment. I could have helped you; we both would have helped you."Karen's smile faded, remembering and wondering what might have been. Dana would have helped her, but she was certain Dana's help would be help to get an abortion; and then she would never have had the joy of knowing her grandchildren. Dean would have; well, it was impossible to know what he would have done, but he would have helped. "Well, consider this your punishment," Karen said, stretching her fingers. "Are you ready?""I'm on opiates, baby. Bring it on;” Dana said, a smile moving across her face.Karen's fingers moved across the keys, and at first, she was put off by the strangeness of the keys and the sensation of tapping on something flat instead of the feel of a piano. Then, memory took over and her hands remembered the dance. Years fell away as she was filled again with the joy of making music. She started with "Clair de lune," a gentle Debussy chosen to respect the frailty of her friend's condition.Upon playing the final chords, she looked up for her friend's reaction to see that Dana had covered her face with a pillow in an attempt to smother herself. "God, you're rusty. You used to be better than me. What have you been doing with those hands?" she complained."Raising kids; kneading dough; finding random women's' panties when I changed sheets on the bed," Karen said, ruefully."Should've jumped Dean while you had the chance;” Dana murmured.Karen bit her lips and closed her eyes. "Um; how; how is he?"Dana stared into Karen's eyes for a painfully long moment, then looked out the window, away from Karen. "Life; life wasn't kind to him. After I graduated, he moved back home to take care of Nana. He only came to the city to look after me, anyway. Living alone hardened him. I haven't seen him in years; not that I'd want to see what he's become. Sometimes you just need to let people go, Kare," she said, sighing sadly. "Anyway; I need a laugh. Show me how pathetic your Jerry Lee Lewis catalog is.""Yes, ma'am," Karen said, blinking back tears and starting into "Great Balls of Fire."The wind coming through the drivers' side window ruffled the inch-long cap of vivid red hair that had grown on Karen's head as she drove down the winding West Virginia roads that she hadn't seen in 30 years. The beauty of this place still softened and relaxed her as much as it had, oh so long ago. Despite Dana's warnings, Karen's heart demanded that she make this trip; and after all she had lost, she was determined to listen to her heart from now on, until she could no longer hear it.She frowned at her passenger and began coughing as a noxious odor swirled around, filling her SUV. She rolled her window down further in self-preservation. This was probably a bad idea; but after all these years of thinking things through and being sensible, she felt entitled to indulge in a few harebrained schemes."Country road; take me home; to the place; I belong; West Virginia; mountain mama; take me home; country road;” she sang, smiling as the wooded foothills rose up in the distance. The path became rough when she turned by the Stevens mailbox and began bouncing up through the woods toward the cozy home. Her passenger surveyed the woods around the vehicle with increasing excitement.Karen started doubting herself, though. It was ridiculous, the more she thought about it. All her emails had gone unanswered. The phone number she was given was out of service. Three decades had passed since she came here; why would he want to see a 50-something woman with an unflattering haircut and stretch marks just because he had fallen in love with the 20-something version of her? Would Dean even remember her at all? She ran through her plan again in her mind again. It sounded really stupid, now. At least it would let her make a quick exit if things didn't work out, though.She broke out in a cold sweat when the house came into view. It was just as she had remembered it, maintained well, but not changed. It was like a holy place, kept perfectly through the ages in reverence for what it represented.She pulled up to the house and parked. No one emerged, so she would have to go in. She would have to go knock on that door and see the unrecognition or even disappointment in his eyes. She needed to go tell him about his sister. Opening the door, she slid out and hopped to the ground and stretched her legs. Suddenly, a braying roar filled the air and a wall of fur launched itself from behind the house and came for her. "SIT!" Karen yelled. Her command, though impressive, appeared only to be a gentle suggestion to the monster that continued to charge her. "STAY!" Karen shouted. This recommendation also appeared to go unheeded."BUSTER, NO!" a voice from the porch yelled, and Karen couldn't help but stare at her first glimpse of Dean in decades. He looked wild. Wild hair, wild beard, a body that had to be formed by the wilderness, itself. Not a drop of civilization tainted the essence of this man; and it made her want to laugh and cry at the same time. Karen began walking toward him, completely forgetting about the fearsome beast avalanche coming to bury her. Dean jumped down from the porch and began running toward the flurry of fur and teeth that had bent its path upon Karen's destruction.A split second before Buster reached Karen, the passenger of her vehicle silently flew out, tackled him with a full-body slam and the two went rolling back from where Karen now stood next to Dean. The two tumbled, tearing up the grass and knocking over the woodpile in the commotion. Buster yelped loudly and jumped free of the massive shaggy-furred beast that was still intent upon teaching him some manners. "Judith, come!" Karen called, and with a final snarl at Buster, Judith returned to where Karen stood and sat by her side, still glaring to where Buster stood looking dumbfounded."Well, I'll be damned;” Dean murmured, looking at the still-cowed Buster in wonder."Girl dog privilege," Karen replied simply. "What is that thing, anyway?" she asked, nodding to where Buster now stood whining and trying to approach the growling Judith."Bernese Mountain Dog; Great Pyrenees; and probably a bit of German Shepherd;” Dean murmured, turning toward her. His eyes traveled over her slowly and boldly."Judith's Akita and Malamute; she was turned into the shelter because she always thinks she's right," Karen said. "That, and she farts something awful."

Join us for an intriguing look at muscle power—and the surprising ways muscle can reveal what we're capable of. Bonnie Tsui, author of On Muscle, will be joined by filmmaker Paige Bethmann and the subject of Bethmann's documentary, Ku Stevens. Her film, Remaining Native, tells the story of 17-year-old runner Stevens who made a 50-mile run through the Nevada desert to remember the route his great-grandfather took to escape from a boarding school. Tsui will draw on a blend of science, culture, immersive reporting, and personal narrative to examine not just what muscles are but what they mean to humans. Muscles allow our heart to beat, food to move through our bodies, blood to circulate, even babies to leave the womb. We might not think of our muscles unless they are sore or we are working out. But they connect us with just about everything we do. A Grownups Member-led Forum program.

Ya está en salas una de las películas españolas llamadas a marcar un antes y un después. En este capítulo de Estamos de Cine nos hemos propuesto poner en valor la calidad de "Sirat: Trance en el desierto" y lo hacemos hablando con su director, el talentoso y diferencial Oliver Laxe. El creador de la aclamada "O que arde" se puede convertir en el cineasta del año con esta propuesta impactante que ya ha cosechado una cascada de elogios entre los expertos. MIN 4: SIRAT: TRANCE EN EL DESIERTO (5 estrellas) Premio del Jurado en Cannes 2025, Sirat se presenta como un “road-movie apocalíptica” que fusiona drama familiar, trance rave y exploración existencial. La trama sigue los pasos de Luis (Serg iLópez) y su hijo Esteban (Bruno Núñez) internándose en una fiesta clandestina en el sur de Marruecos para buscar a Mar, la hija y hermana desaparecida meses atrás. Esta búsqueda les permite hermanarse con una a suerte de comunidad Esta búsqueda los affinila a una “troupe de nómadas del sonido” y los introduce en una travesía cada vez más brutal física y emocionalmente de nómadas del sonido electrónico y los introduce en una travesía cada vez más brutal en el plano físico y en el emocional. Min 10: ENTREVISTA AL DIRECTOR OLIVER LAXE El directo de Estamos de Cine, Roberto Lancha, mantiene una entrevista en profundidad con el director gallego, que nos cuenta las intenciones de su propuesta y de la dimensión y la espiritualidad con la que ha querido sacar al espectador de su zona de confort. Laxe no es nuevo en Cannes: ya había sido reconocido en 2010 (Todos vós sodes capitáns), 2016 (Mimosas) y 2019 (O que arde), siendo, de hecho, uno de los escasos cineastas españoles con premios en distintas ediciones. Este hijo de emigrantes gallegos vive hoy en una aldea de Navia de Suarna. Su cine se nutre de esa identidad: lo rural, el silencio, el paisaje de los Ancares. Gracias a "O que arde", este cineasta captó la atención de El Deseo y de los hermanos Almodóvar que, junto a Esther García, le han apoyado sin fisuras para intentar llevar a "Sirat" lo más alto posible. NOTA EDC: 5 estrellas Min 30: LA BUENA SUERTE El nuevo largometraje de la directora española Gracia Querejeta sigue al personaje de Pablo (Hugo?Silva), un arquitecto con éxito, que decide bajarse del tren en un pueblo perdido y compra un piso de forma impulsiva. Lo hace para dejar atrás un pasado oscuro y también para huir de sí mismo . Allí conoce a Raluca (Megan?Montaner), una vecina optimista que cree firmemente en la "buena suerte" pese a su entorno gris. NOTA EDC: 3 estrellas Min 35: BALLERINA: DEL UNIVERSO JOHN WICK "Ballerina", el taquillazo cantado de la semana, se sitúa entre John Wick: Chapter 3 y Chapter 4, y sigue a Eve Macarro (Ana?de?Armas), una exniña huérfana cuyo padre fue asesinado. Criada por la organización Ruska?Roma en una academia donde el ballet y el asesinato se mezclan, Eve se convierte en una letal ejecutora que busca venganza y redención. NOTA EDC: 3,5 estrellas Min 42: LA CASA AL FINAL DE LA CURVA La casa al final de la curva, dirigida por Jason Buxton y protagonizada por Ben Foster y Cobie Smulders, es un thriller psicológico que llega a los cines este fin de semana. La historia sigue a un padre de familia que, tras presenciar un accidente frente a su casa, se obsesiona con salvar a desconocidos, entrando en una espiral de angustia, culpa y necesidad de redención. Con pocos personajes y mucha tensión, la película plantea hasta qué punto el deseo de ayudar puede volverse oscuro. Una propuesta inquietante, contenida y emocional que muestra a un Ben Foster sobresaliente en uno de sus papeles más turbadores. NOTA EDC: 3,5 estrellas Min 45. MADS MadS, dirigida por David Moreau y protagonizada por Milton Riche, Laurie Pavy y Lucille Guillaume, es un trepidante thriller de terror rodado en un único plano secuencia que sigue a Romain, un joven que, tras probar una droga sintética, recoge a una mujer herida en la carretera y se sumerge en una noche de pesadilla donde no sabe si lo que vive es un mal viaje o un brote viral de zombis; una experiencia claustrofóbica, sin respiro, que combina adrenalina pura con una atmósfera de terror visceral. NOTA EDC: 2,5 estrellas Min 47: THE RITUAL The Ritual, dirigida por David Midell y protagonizada por Al Pacino, Dan Stevens y Abigail Cowen, narra un impactante exorcismo basado en hechos reales: dos sacerdotes, uno veterano y otro joven, se unen para liberar a Emma, una joven poseída, en un ritual que mezcla fe, duda y horror. Pacino ofrece un personaje carismático con un particular acento alemán, Stevens aporta humanidad desde la incertidumbre, y Cowen encarna con fuerza el tormento de la posesión. Con tensión bien manejada y sin alardes visuales, la película busca emocionar más que asustar, aun cuando algunos críticos señalaban que su guion cae en clichés. NOTA EDC: 2 estrellas Min 50: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON OLIVER LAXE El director del momento y protagonista de este capítulo es el encargado de remover sus recuerdos y su formación cinéfila para desvelarnos que la película de su vida es "Andrei Rublev", la magna epopeya de 1966 dirigida por Andrei Tarkovsky, es un viaje visual y espiritual que retrata la vida y tribulación del monje y pintor de íconos rusos del siglo XV. Compuesta en ocho episodios, la película es menos una biografía tradicional que una meditación poética sobre el arte, la fe y el peso de la historia. Min 53: DESPEDIDA PINCELADA BSO SIRAT Despedimos programa escuchando dos de los temas más significativos de la BSO de "Sirat", compuesta por el músico francés Kangding Ray (David Letellier) y que se ha convertido en un pilar central del film, encapsulando la atmósfera trance y ritual del desierto marroquí: inicia con un beat tribal y enfadado, evoluciona hacia texturas más metafísicas y envolventes, y resuena en Dolby Atmos con golpes sónicos capaces de hacer vibrar la sala, otorgándole una dimensión casi espiritual al ritmo narrativo cadenaser.c Su relevancia ha sido reconocida en Cannes con el Premio Soundtrack, convirtiéndola en el corazón sónico que acompaña y eleva cada escena del viaje interior que propone Oliver Laxe.

DesignBar på Designmuseum Danmark. Årets første. Det var en uformel fredag eftermiddag og aften i Museumshaven med inspiration og gode vibes. En smuk måde at gå på weekend på. Episoden er optaget til DesignBar, hvor stemmer fra designverdenen forholder sig til bæredygtighed i vores branche. Kristina May har en samtale med Winni Grosbøll, direktør for Forbrugerrådet TÆNK, på en intim scene i midten af haven. Fuglene kvidrer, vinden hvisker, og solen skinner. Det kan man nærmest høre. Samtalerne flyder både før og efter samtalen med Winni, og i baggrunden lyder tonerne af CarlloYABOY. Du hører stemmerne af Marcus Fuchs, designchef hos DR, Sarah Lærke Stevens, CEO ved Design Denmark, Matt Lamont, grafisk designer og underviser, Christina Lauer, brand- og digital designer, og Jesper von Wieding, strategisk kreativ direktør og ejer af N96. De taler om alt fra nødvendigheden af at mødes på tværs i branchen, udfordringen i bæredygtighed – selvom vi er opmærksomme til fingerspidserne – udfordringen ved, men alligevel forståelsen af sans serif, kommunikationens mindre carbon footprint end andre designere, og ikke mindst at vi som branche har et ansvar.

In September 1989, 19-year-old Valerie Stevens kissed her daughter goodnight and left their Toronto apartment for a night out. She never made it to the nightclub—and never came home. Three years later, Valerie's remains were discovered in a wooded area near Brantford, Ontario. Her death was ruled a homicide, but the case remains unsolved to this day. In this episode, we speak with Valerie's daughter, Robyn Stevens, who was just 16 months old when her mother vanished. Now a mother herself, Robyn shares her personal journey—from the shocking revelation as a preteen that she had been adopted, to her ongoing efforts to uncover what really happened to her birth mother. With candor and resilience, Robyn reflects on identity, loss, and the enduring hope for justice.

Are Evangelical Prophets following the lead of Elon Musk and mining data for profiting from propheting? Tara Jean Stevens of the Heaven Bent Podcast dives into the story that "prophets" are getting their information about conference goers from Social Media, not from heaven. Some of these prophets are people Paul and Ashley knew pretty well in their evangelical days. Don't miss this fascinating conversation.

"MARK STEVENS: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH" The name MARK STEVENS probably doesn't ring a bell with moviegoers today. However, he's one of those actors who once you see him on screen, you say, “Oh, yeah, THAT guy!” Still, at one time, he was a very in-demand leading man who was always compelling and had a tough-guy likability that brightened up many a hum-drum movie. He may not have reached the upper echelon of fame like contemporaries ALAN LADD or DANA ANDREWS, but he certainly left his mark — particularly in “The Dark Corner” with a pre-TV LUCILLE BALL. Like CHARLES LAUGHTON, DICK POWELL, and IDA LUPINO, he also became a pioneer of the actor-turned-director. Today, we take a look at his long and varied career and celebrate him as our Star of the Month.

We're talking tariffs with Robbie Stevens of Liv-ex and how they affected fine wine trading in Trumps first administration.

Tonight we're chatting with Mark Stevens, author of the new thriller novel NO LIE LASTS FOREVER out in June from Thomas & Mercer, who call NO LIE LASTS FOREVER “Zodiac with a terrifying twist, in a taut thriller from author Mark Stevens about a reformed serial killer and the disgraced journalist he coaxes into finding the imposter trading on his name.” Stevens's book The Fireballer (Lake Union, 2023) was named Best Baseball Novel by Twin Bill Literary Magazine and named one of Best Baseball Books of the Year by Spitball Magazine, and his books Buried by the Roan, Trapline, and Lake of Fire were all finalists for the Colorado Book Award (2012, 2015, and 2016, respectively). Trapline won the Colorado Book Award in 2016 and also received the best genre fiction award from Colorado Authors League.  In September 2016, Stevens was named Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers' Writer of the Year, and again in 2023. Stevens hosts a regular podcast for Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers and has served as president of the Rocky Mountain chapter for Mystery Writers of America.

In this episode, host Brittany Greco sits down with S&T Senior Standards Advisor Renee Stevens for a lively discussion about how setting standards for technology development can actually be a matter of life, death, and national security. You'll hear how the faith that we put in everyday things (like seatbelts) is directly related to the faith and confidence we put in millimeter wave technology at airport checkpoints, law enforcement ballistic helmets, computers, and the security of artificial intelligence systems. Stevens explains how proper standards-setting protects everyone, from first responders in the field to the American public.

Steven Gätjen ist einer der bekanntesten Moderatoren Deutschlands. Bei “Schlag den Raab” oder “Joko & Klaas gegen Pro7” sorgt er für Spannung - und dafür, dass die Regeln eingehalten werden. In der NDR Talk Show oder am Roten Teppich bei den Oscars interviewt er deutsche und internationale Stars – von Boris Becker und Jan Delay über Tom Cruise und Nicole Kidman bis hin zu Angelina Jolie. Ich wollte von ihm wissen, was er dabei übers „berühmt sein“ gelernt hat. Und die Beobachtung, die er da geteilt hat, hat mich echt überrascht. Was ich auch vorher nicht wusste: Steven ist in Arizona geboren und hat dadurch nicht nur die deutsche, sondern auch die amerikanische Staatsbürgerschaft. Wie dieses Land ihn geprägt hat und wie sehr ihn die aktuellen Entwicklungen dort bewegen, habe ich im Laufe unseres Gesprächs an mehreren Stellen gemerkt. Außerdem haben wir darüber geredet, wie man das meiste aus dem Leben herausholt, ohne dabei zu zerreißen; was gute Freunde ausmacht und warum Steven nicht immer einer ist – und wie er die weniger erfolgreichen Phasen seiner Karriere gemeistert hat, die wir als Publikum ja oft gar nicht mitbekommen.

Can a cap that emits specific light wavelengths truly reverse hair loss? In this episode of The Technology of Beauty, Dr. Grant Stevens sits down with John Oakley, CEO of REVIAN, to explore how their patented dual-wavelength LED therapy is transforming hair restoration. Unlike traditional laser devices, REVIAN's lightweight, cordless cap uses both 620nm and 660nm light to stimulate nitric oxide production, reduce inflammation, and block DHT—all essential to regrowing thicker, healthier hair.With over 60 patents and clinical data showing significantly greater efficacy than competing therapies, REVIAN is leading a new wave in non-invasive hair restoration. It's not just about technology—it's about results. Dr. Stevens and John both use the device personally, and over 55% of users are now women, thanks in part to its ease of use, cordless design, and drug-free, side-effect-free approach.John shares why this dual-wavelength, LED-powered system is more effective than traditional laser caps and how REVIAN's smart app brings real accountability to at-home treatment with a fully integrated therapeutic solution.In a powerful final segment, John opens up about his work in Guatemala with Unearth Hope, a nonprofit bringing basic healthcare to remote villages. His annual mission trips speak to a deeper commitment to healing—whether it's through light-based therapy or hands-on community care.
