Happy Mardi Gras! The Fat One is celebrating Fat Tuesday with the continuation of his weekend report which included cabbage, forgetfulness, thoughts on the Olympics and an update on the Book Club! Happy National Indian Pudding Day.

This episode continues to examine the halachic rules of squeezing fruit on Shabbos. Olives and grapes remain strictly prohibited to squeeze for juice under all circumstances. Strawberries and pomegranates are treated more leniently if they are primarily for eating and juice emerges on its own, but actively squeezing them for drinking is still forbidden.For other fruits, local custom is decisive—if a fruit is commonly juiced in a given place (such as apples today or pears in certain regions), squeezing it is prohibited; if not, there may be room for leniency. The discussion also addresses sucking juice directly from fruit, which many authorities permit since it is not the normal method of extraction, though some opinions are stricter, especially regarding olives and grapes.Using expressed juice as a dip rather than as a beverage can be more lenient for most fruits, but not for olives and grapes due to their primary designation for liquids and concerns of appearance. The episode highlights differing rabbinic views and concludes with the importance of consulting one's own halachic authority for practical application.

Haruto said with a smile.Ja: タケシは少し考えた後、笑顔で頷いた。En: Takeshi thought for a moment and then nodded with a grin.Ja: しばらくして、春人は市場に戻ってきた。En: After a while, Haruto returned to the market.Ja: 偶然、幼馴染のアイコの声が聞こえた。En: By chance, he heard the voice of his childhood friend, Aiko.Ja: 「別の場所にイチゴがまだ残っているみたいだよ。」彼女は友達に話していた。En: "It seems there are still strawberries left somewhere else," she was saying to her friends.Ja: 春人はその話を聞いて急いでその場所へ向かった。En: Hearing this, Haruto hurried to that location.Ja: そこには隠れたイチゴの在庫があった。En: There he found a hidden stock of strawberries.Ja: 春人は無事にイチゴを手に入れ、アイコに感謝の言葉を伝えた。En: Haruto successfully acquired the strawberries and expressed his gratitude to Aiko.Ja: 二人は昔の思い出を語り合いながら、友情を取り戻した。En: As they shared stories of old memories, they rekindled their friendship.Ja: 帰り道、春人は協力の大切さを改めて感じた。En: On his way back home, Haruto once again felt the importance of cooperation.Ja: ただ競争するのではなく、助け合うことが大事だと悟った。En: He realized that it's important to help each other, rather than just compete.Ja: そして、自分の夢に向き合う新たな視点を得た。En: He also gained a new perspective on facing his dreams.Ja: 母親にイチゴを手渡した時、彼女はとても嬉しそうに微笑んだ。En: When he handed the strawberries to his mother, she smiled happily.Ja: 春日の空には、静かに雪が降り続ける。En: In the Kasuga sky, snow continued to fall quietly.Ja: 市場はまだまだ賑やかで、春人はその中を誇らしげに歩いていった。En: The market was still bustling, and Haruto walked through it proudly.Ja: 彼の心は暖かく、明日が少し楽しみになった。En: His heart was warm, and he was a bit excited for tomorrow.

Just a dinar a cent!"He: הריחות החזקים מילאו את האוויר, הלחם הטרי והזעתר העיקרי.En: The strong smells filled the air, with fresh bread and the dominant aroma of za'atar.He: איתן, אחוז מחשבות על העבודה, הלך בצורה נמרצת ומסתכל כל הזמן על השעון.En: Eitan, engrossed in thoughts about work, walked briskly and kept checking his watch.He: לידה, ליה עם עיניה הבורקות גישרה בין הדוכנים, מבקשת לבדוק את כל מה שמסביב.En: Beside him, Leah with her sparkling eyes moved between the stalls, eager to take in everything around.He: "למה אנחנו לא עושים משהו אחר בפעם הזאת?" היא שאלה, ממצמצת בעיניה לעבר איתן, שעדיין היה שקוע במחשבות.En: "Why don't we do something different this time?" she asked, blinking at Eitan, who was still lost in thought.He: "אולי עלינו לחגוג בצורה שמועילה לאחרים?"En: "Maybe we should celebrate in a way that's beneficial to others?"He: אבי צעד לצידם, אופפים זרועים באווירה השוקית ההומה.En: Avi walked alongside them, wrapped in the bustling market atmosphere.He: הוא זכר את אשתו ז"ל, ואת ט"ו בשבט שציינו כל שנה כמו מסורת.En: He remembered his late wife and the Tu Bishvat they celebrated every year as a tradition.He: "המסורת היא חלק מאתנו," הוא אמר, קולו רך אך חדור אהבה.En: "Tradition is a part of us," he said, his voice soft but filled with love.He: "אבל יכול להיות שלא משתנה רעיון רע."En: "But maybe change isn't a bad idea."He: הם עצרו ליד דוכן של פירות יבשים.En: They stopped by a stall of dried fruits.He: "תראו את השפע," אמר אבי בעודו מרים תאנה.En: "Look at the abundance," said Avi as he picked up a fig.He: "כך גם עלינו לפרוח."En: "We too should flourish."He: איתן הגיב במחווה להרגיע: "אבל העבודה... היא לוחצת."En: Eitan responded with a calming gesture: "But the work... it's pressing."He: תוך כדי שיחתם, ראתה ליה קבוצה צעירה שמתכננת פיקניק למען ילדים במרכז העיר.En: During their conversation, Leah noticed a young group planning a picnic for children in the city center.He: היא חייכה. "למה לא להצטרף ולעזור?"En: She smiled. "Why not join and help?"He: כשהיום התקדם, איתן ואבי שוחחו מלב אל לב על מה שחשוב באמת.En: As the day progressed, Eitan and Avi had a heartfelt talk about what really matters.He: "תמיד חשבתי על הכסף, העבודה," אמר איתן.En: "I always thought about money, work," said Eitan.He: "אבל עכשיו אני רואה את הערך שבפרטים הקטנים עם המשפחה."En: "But now I see the value in the small things with family."He: בסופו של דבר, שלושה מהם הצטרפו לקבוצה הצעירה ושינעו ארוחות.En: In the end, the three of them joined the young group and helped distribute meals.He: השוק המשיך להדהד בקולות ותחושת קהילה התחזקה בלבם.En: The market continued to resonate with voices, and a sense of community strengthened in their hearts.He: איתן הבין שחייו יכולים להכיל גם משפחה וגם עבודה בלי לוותר על אף אחד מהם.En: Eitan realized that his life could embrace both family and work without sacrificing either.He: הפעם, איתן השתנה - אולי לא בצורה שחשב, אבל בצורה שהייתה נכונה יותר עבורו.En: This time, he changed - maybe not in the way he expected, but in a way that was more right for him.He: המסורת והחידוש מצאו דרך להשתלב, כמו מפת השוק הצבעונית ומלאת החיים בירושלים.En: Tradition and innovation found a way to blend, like the colorful and lively market map of Jerusalem.

Han berättar bland annat om när han i slutet av åttiotalet väckte skivbolagets vrede genom att bära klänning på scen, om när han stal en röntgenbild av "The man who fell to earth"-regissören Nicolas Roegs knä, om teaterkursen på universitetet som förde honom samman med den andra kreativa kraften i Go-Betweens: Grant McLennan, om att klä sig så prydligt att alla trodde att de var nördiga bokmalar (när de i själva verket var tämligen dekadenta rockers), om att turnera med The Birthday Party och REM, om Pär Wiksten i Wannadies som gjort mer PR för Go-Betweens än något skivbolag och om första singeln "Lee Remick" som Robert skrev som en hyllning till filmstjärnan ("she comes from Ireland, she's very beautiful, I come from Brisbane and I'm quite plain") utan att veta att hon kom från Massachusetts.

Fresh, ripe berries right out of the garden are a distant dream at the moment, but there are steps you can take now that will give those berries their best chance to thrive.

Macca chats with callers and guitarist Nigel Foote.

I love strawberries but this early in the season they can lack flavour. My advice is to warm them up! Roast or grill or in a pan with some sugar and lemon juice and you'll find them a different berry altogether – jammy, sweet, and full of flavour. Ingredients: 2 cups strawberries, hulled and large ones halved or quartered 1 tablespoon brown or white sugar Juice from one orange 1 vanilla pod, halved and seeds scraped Yoghurt or cream to serve Handful of hazelnuts, toasted and chopped Method: Gently heat strawberries in a pan on the stove top or in the oven, with sugar, orange juice, and vanilla until they slump a little. Serve with yoghurt or cream and sprinkled with hazelnuts. Serving suggestions: Spooned over brioche toast or toasted croissant topped with fresh ricotta. In a bowl with quality vanilla ice cream, a lick of balsamic vinegar or grind of black pepper and crushed hazelnuts. Make or buy some crepes and fill them with roasted and cooled strawberries with chopped pistachios folded through Greek yoghurt or whipped cream. Spooned on top of a homemade Basque Cheesecake or a bought sponge cake, for a glorious ruby red crown.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Three reactions to the concept of “feeding your plants”: Plants feed themselves through Photosynthesis (you don't need to feed your plants!) They'll pick up elements in the soil that they need for growth and development – nobody feeds the plants in a native forest. What's scientifically needed for our gardens is a soil test that indicates which chemical elements are lacking in soil. This is about the Science of Fertilisers. This is the time of the year when soil temperatures are the best for plant growth. Roots work over time to extract minerals, dissolve them in water, and transport them through the phloem bundles to the leaves of plants, where photosynthesis puts it all together and creates carbohydrates and chemicals that allow cell-elongation (growth). Plants use three main elements for bulk growth “food”: Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Potassium (K), which are generally known as NPK (their chemical symbols). N is used to make green stuff: leaves and Chlorophyll (LAWNS, LETTUCE, SPINACH, HEDGES). P is good for root development and plant health (CARROTS, PARSNIPS, POTATOES, etc). K (potash) is for sex: flowers and fruits (TOMATOES, APPLES, STRAWBERRIES, FLOWERING PLANTS). Other elements needed for a plant to function are needed in much smaller quantities: Mg (Magnesium), S (Sulphur), Ca (Calcium), Cu (Copper), Fe (Iron), Zn (Zinc), Mn (Manganese), and a heap more of those minor “trace elements”. There are a few different types of fertilisers: “General” Fertiliser – for general growth. Usually something like N-P-K 7-3-6 or 12-4-13 (note how Phosphorus is usually less than the N and K). Potato fertiliser: N-P-K 3-9-6 also good for carrots and parsnips. Tomato or rose fertiliser, which is usually higher in potash (K): N-P-K 3-4-9. This helps to stimulate flower and fruit growth. Of course you can always use the general fertiliser (which tends to be highest in Nitrogen) and simply add a few handfuls of Superphosphate (P) if you grow root crops, or handfuls of Sulphate of Potash (K) if you want to up the dose of K (potash) for flowers and fruit. Organic fertilisers usually have lower concentrations of elements, and they are often less prone to fertiliser run-off into water courses. Chicken poo (a “natural” organic fertiliser) has a high content of Nitrogen which can burn plants – I would always send it through a cycle of composting before use. I use General fertiliser on my young tomatoes to get them growing up and create a strong climbing vine before the flower buds are formed. Once they start flowering, I assist the plants with more potash to keep on making fruit – I just switch to a higher potash fertiliser such as Wet&Forget's Seaweed Tea. Seaweed Tea and Seafood Soup were designed to quickly fertilise lawns and large amounts of vegetables. It has this clever system of watering your plants and enriching the soil. I use the contents of Soup and Tea in watering cans – often in a very mild (or “weak”) solution. In the tunnel house I do this almost every day to water the tomatoes; with small amounts of tea or soup I add a little bit of fertiliser with every watering - works brilliantly!

This week we're discussing every album by The Damned from 1977 to 1986. Pioneers of punk (and goth to a degree), The Damned are a band more talented and even more insane than most others. They defined the chaos of first generation punk in the late 70s, yet still managed to put out some of the most legendary albums of the era. Dave Vanian, Captain Sensible, Rat Scabies, and Brian James, before his departure, left a legacy filled with speed, booze, and countless memorable riffs.

Picture a farm where robots work through the night, eliminating disease without a single drop of chemicals. It sounds like science fiction, but it's already happening on strawberry farms across Britain and vineyards throughout California, thanks to a remarkable robot called Thorvald. Thorvald is an autonomous robot that uses UVC light as a preventative treatment for crop diseases.Thorvald's unique horseshoe design allows it to glide autonomously through polytunnels and vineyards at night, emitting precisely calibrated UVC light that damages mildew spores while leaving crops unharmed. The modular platform not only eliminates chemical use but also collects valuable crop data through onboard cameras and machine learning, giving farmers unprecedented insights for harvest planning and yield optimization. Saga Robotics treated roughly 20% of the British strawberry harvest this year, and is expanding to 30% next season. We traveled to Lincoln, the UK headquarters of Saga Robotics, to meet Chief Product Officer Damian Flynn and his engineering team.

"The Song Forlorn" Perhaps best known as the Peter portion of the Swedish outfit Peter Bjorn and John, Peter Morén and his band have put out close to ten albums of catchy indie rock that's yielded worldwide hits like "Young Folks," tours around the globe, international television ads and TV and movie placements in everything from Gossip Girl to Bandslam. Raised in the Swedish countryside, Morén grew up listening to Ride, Depeche Mode, The Housemartins and the Stone Roses and his sonorous and melodic body of work reflects his love of well-crafted pop songs. With four fabulous solo albums under his belt, a side project with members of The Shout Out Louds and The Concretes and handling producer duties for Robert Forster's wonderful new album Strawberries, Morén is a busy guy. And I'm leaving things out, I'm sure. But what I'm not leaving out is his second album under the moniker SunYears. The follow up to the dazzling Come Fetch My Soul, The Song Forlorn is a stirring and rousing song-cycle filled with wistful pop, affecting ballads, fuzzed out psych jams and rootsy instrumentals. Featuring guests like Lisa Hannigan, Sam Genders, Nicole Atkins, and Madison Cunningham, The Song Forlorn is an album that's filled with tremendous stylistic range. There's touches of Aztec Camera and Prefab Sprout, Beatle-esque jangle and spare indie folk. It's percussive, melodic and magical work. https://www.roughtrade.com/en-us/product/sunyears/the-song-forlorn IG: @sunyearssongs www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers IG + Bluesky: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com
