He teaches the vets in Bristol, wrote the curriculum, and set up the Danish Veterinary School with Lise Hansen. He teaches routinely at three UK homeopathic colleges and has been a visiting lecturer at most of the others.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: Rose Allergies and Revelations at the Taj Mahal Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hi/episode/2025-09-22-22-34-02-hi Story Transcript:Hi: ताजमहल के सामने शरद ऋतु की सुनहरी धूप में हर चीज़ चमक रही थी।En: In the golden sunlight of autumn, everything in front of the Taj Mahal was shimmering.Hi: संगमरमर की इमारत की खूबसूरती देखते ही बनती थी।En: The beauty of the marble building was something to behold.Hi: इस दिन ताजमहल के बागीचों में एक विशेष फूल प्रदर्शनी आयोजित की गई थी, जिसमें हजारों गुलाब खिले हुए थे।En: On this day, a special flower exhibition was organized in the gardens of the Taj Mahal, where thousands of roses were in bloom.Hi: प्रिय, एक इतिहासकार, ताजमहल की वास्तुकला को शांति से निहारना चाहती थी।En: Priya, a historian, wanted to quietly admire the architecture of the Taj Mahal.Hi: लेकिन उसके लिए समस्या थी – उसे गुलाब से एलर्जी थी।En: But she had a problem – she was allergic to roses.Hi: राहुल, उसका दोस्त, अपनी ब्लॉग के लिए परफेक्ट तस्वीर लेने में व्यस्त था।En: Rahul, her friend, was busy taking the perfect picture for his blog.Hi: और उनके साथ मेना भी थी, एक स्थानीय गाइड, जो पर्यटकों को अपने ज्ञान से प्रभावित करने की कोशिश कर रही थी।En: With them was Mena, a local guide, who was trying to impress the tourists with her knowledge.Hi: प्रिय को बार-बार छींक आ रही थी, लेकिन वह अपने दोस्तों की खुशी में उसकी समस्याओं का शोर नहीं घोलना चाहती थी।En: Priya kept sneezing repeatedly, but she didn't want to dampen her friends' joy with her problems.Hi: वह अपने दोस्तों के साथ वहां बनी रही, आशा करते हुए कि यह छींक कभी तो रुकेगी।En: She stayed with her friends, hoping that the sneezes would eventually stop.Hi: लेकिन स्थिति और बिगड़ी जब एक बड़े समूह फोटो के दौरान प्रिय की छींक ने एक हलचल पैदा कर दिया।En: However, the situation worsened when during a large group photo, Priya's sneeze caused a commotion.Hi: सब लोग हंसने लगे और कुछ लोग उसे आँखें तरेरने लगे।En: Everyone started laughing, and some people gave her disapproving looks.Hi: प्रिय का चेहरा शर्म से लाल हो गया।En: Priya's face turned red with embarrassment.Hi: आखिरकार, उसने सोचा कि अब उसे कुछ करना चाहिए।En: Finally, she thought she should do something.Hi: वह एक कम फूलों वाला स्थान खोजती हुई चली गई, जिससे उसकी छींक कम हो सके और वह ताजमहल की खूबसूरती को अपनी आंखों में बसा सके।En: She wandered off to find a spot with fewer flowers, so her sneezing would lessen and she could take in the beauty of the Taj Mahal with her eyes.Hi: इस शांत कोने में खड़ी होकर, प्रिय ने खुद से वादा किया कि अब वह ऐसी स्थिति में चुप नहीं बैठेगी।En: Standing in this quiet corner, Priya promised herself that she would not stay silent in such situations anymore.Hi: उसने अनुभव से सीखा कि अपनी जरूरतों को बताना जरूरी होता है।En: She learned from the experience that it is important to communicate her needs.Hi: और आने वाले समय में, वह हमेशा अपने साथ एलर्जी की दवा रखने का मन बना लिया।En: And in the future, she decided she would always keep allergy medicine with her.Hi: ताजमहल की खूबसूरती के साथ-साथ प्रिय ने उस दिन अपने लिए एक महत्वपूर्ण सबक सीखा।En: Along with the beauty of the Taj Mahal, Priya learned an important lesson for herself that day.Hi: वह धूप सेंकते हुए, ताजमहल के भव्य आकार को देख रही थी, और उसके दिल में एक नई संतुष्टि की भावना जाग उठी थी।En: While basking in the sun, gazing at the grand form of the Taj Mahal, a new sense of satisfaction awakened in her heart.

Neoborn Caveman unleashes a caveman-sized takedown of hatred's toxic grip on our fractured world—from Chinese botnets fueling Middle East rage to Eurovision boycotts turning art into a battlefield. We dissect the "spherical attack" on humanity: plastic-saturated clothes seeping into our bloodstreams, data-hoarding blood banks eyeing your DNA for 30 years, and air pollution blackening icons like Delhi's Red Fort and the Taj Mahal (spoiler: it's not your campfire's fault). But fear not—this isn't doom-scrolling; it's a rallying cry for radical positivity. Learn why almonds slash bad cholesterol for metabolic warriors like us, how Chaplin's Great Dictator speech still slays divisive triggers, and why music—like Sami Chohfi's globe-trotting anthems of connection—builds bridges where propaganda burns them. We champion sovereignty over social contracts no one signed, warn of financial whirlwinds dwarfing 2008, and arm you with tools to protect kids, pets, and your eternal worth. Hatred drains the soul; greatness refuels it. Tune in, unplug the machine, and remember: you're not alone in this extraordinary, ordinary world. Slurp, burp, and rise.Key TakeawaysYou're Built for Greatness: Your unique existence isn't random—embrace it as eternal fuel, untethered from wealth, norms, or globalist gears.Guard Your Sovereignty Fiercely: No registry owns your data—question blood banks hoarding DNA, reject the invisible machine siphoning your soul.Modern Life's a Slow Poison—Fight Back Naturally: Ditch processed junk for God-made gems like organic almonds and green tea; they heal guts, hearts, and barriers against the plastic plague.The Spherical Siege Is Real: From noise-polluted streets to unlivable air turning monuments black, we're under 360° assault—but logic (not "trust the science") exposes the culprits.Brace for Unprecedented Turbulence: Next three years eclipse 2008's bubble burst; thrive without governments by trading, supporting kin, and listening to the good word.Evil Shouts, Good Whispers Louder: More souls are gold than grime; drown bots and agitprop in cat purrs, prayers, and nature walks.Reject the Parasites, Claim Your Throne: WEF, Club of Rome, Shite Gates? Nah—we're sovereign cogs who opt out. History's real lessons (not curricula lies) prove society spins sans their strings.Chapters00:00 Embracing Individual Value and Positivity02:53 The Dangers of Hatred and Division05:47 Sovereignty and Personal Data Concerns08:44 The Impact of Modern Life on Health11:40 The Spherical Attack on Humanity15:04 Anticipating Future Challenges17:05 Health Insights and Nutritional Advice19:05 The Role of Music and Art in Society21:28 The Influence of Hatred in Society26:38 The Power of Positivity and Connection30:30 Cultural Commentary and Social Responsibility34:01 The Importance of Unity Over Division36:49 Recognizing Greatness Within Us38:16 Environmental Concerns and Responsibility41:58 Awakening to True History and SovereigntySound Bites"You were designed to be great...

What sparks a lifelong love of travel? For some, it starts in childhood. For Melissa, co-host of Ladies Who Travel, it was different. She did not travel overseas until she was an adult, and her journey from novice to explorer shows how travel can shape a life. In this month's Stamped episode, Melissa shares the moments that defined her: wandering Sydney at 19 with a paper map, the pull of “The Beach,” and a three-month solo round-the-world trip at 26. That journey transformed her confidence. “There's something about travelling alone that makes me feel on top of the world.”She brings to life magical moments, such as watching her daughter experience snow for the first time in Prague, and explains why Thailand keeps calling her back. Perhaps most revealing is her observation about landmark attractions: after visiting the Taj Mahal with a group, not a single person named it their highlight. Instead, everyone cherished human connections. Whether you are a seasoned traveller or just beginning, this conversation offers insight into creating meaningful travel experiences. Listen now, then join our "Ladies Who Travel" Facebook group or explore our tours specifically designed for women over 50.⭐️ Guest - Melissa Delaware from "The Queensland Travel Guide"

Da igual que las cosas vayan bien, mal o regular en el Real Madrid. La única diferencia es que, cuando van mal, las críticas se agudizan y los debates surgen por doquier y son más ácidos. Siempre encuentran el lado negativo de las cosas, pese a que, en la mayoría de las ocasiones, sólo existe en su mente, en su imaginación.

Le guitariste Thomas Naïm est le seul guitariste au monde à proposer un album solo sur Hendrix May This Be Love avec la participation du spécialiste français de Jimi Hendrix : Yazid Manou. (Rediffusion) La #SessionLive reçoit Thomas Naïm pour la sortie de l'album May This Be Love et le spécialiste français de Jimi Hendrix : Yazid Manou ! C'est après un stage d'été au Berklee College of Music de Boston et des cours à l'American School of Modern Music à Paris, que Thomas Naïm fonde avec la chanteuse Joyce Hozé le duo Tom & Joyce. Influencé par la MPB, la bossa nova des 60's et le jazz, le groupe enregistre deux albums : Tom & Joyce sorti en 2002 (Yellow Productions/East West) et Antigua en 2005 (Yellow Productions/Tommy Boy) sur lequel participe le légendaire batteur Tony Allen et dont certains morceaux seront remixés par des producteurs de dance music parmi les plus reconnus (Masters At Work, François Kevorkian ou Bob Sinclar). Par la suite, Thomas Naïm sera sollicité pour accompagner sur scène ou en studio de nombreux artistes venant d'horizons parfois très différents parmi lesquels Youn Sun Nah, Hugh Coltman, Hindi Zahra, Sébastien Tellier, Ala.ni, Mayra Andrade, Tiken Jah Fakoly, Blick Bassy, Idrissa Diop, Bob Sinclar, Salomé de Bahia, Brisa Roché, Bernard Lavilliers, Albin de la Simone, Michel Fugain, Claire Diterzi, Renan Luce… Il mène en parallèle depuis plusieurs années une carrière solo à la tête d'un trio avec le bassiste Marcello Giuliani et le batteur Raphaël Chassin avec lesquels il enregistre en 2018 l'album Desert Highway. En 2020, Thomas Naïm va confronter son trio aux compositions du maître Jimi Hendrix et enregistrer l'album Sounds of Jimi. L'idée de départ n'est pas de reprendre les titres d'Hendrix tel quel mais de trouver pour chaque morceau une esthétique plus personnelle, et à l'exception de trois titres chantés par Hugh Coltman et Célia Kameni, de privilégier l'approche instrumentale. L'album accueillera également en invités Erik Truffaz à la trompette et Camille Bazbaz à l'orgue. En 2022, il retourne en studio avec son trio augmenté de l'organiste/pianiste de Marc Benham pour enregistrer, sous la houlette du réalisateur grand angle Daniel Yvinec, On the Far Side, un album consacré à ses propres compositions dont la sortie est prévue pour février 2023. Thomas Naïm y retrouve ses premières amours, le Jazz, qu'il mêle à ses influences de toujours la pop, le rock psychédélique, les bandes originales de films et mille autres choses. Laurent Bardainne (saxophone) souffle sur trois titres un vent créatif qui donne à cet album unique une force et une couleur presque mystique. Avec May This Be Love, Thomas Naïm devient le 1er guitariste au monde, à reprendre Hendrix en guitare solo.

Il est le héros du roman « Blues pour Jimi Hendrix » écrit par Stéphane Koechlin. Yazid Manou est le gardien d'un mort comme Anubis dans la mythologie égyptienne, Jimi Hendrix. Il porte des fleurs sur sa tombe, soigne sa postérité, veille à sa gloire... En 1990, vingt ans après la mort de Jimi le 18 septembre 1970, il a organisé le festival « Jimi's Back » à Paris pendant une semaine dont une soirée à l'Olympia qui a bouleversé sa vie. Il y a invité de nombreux artistes pour reprendre les thèmes du bluesman. Il a convié bien sûr en premier lieu l'ex-bassiste de Jimi, Noel Redding, personnage douloureux et attachant, frappé quelques mois plus tôt par un deuil terrible, la mort de sa fiancée Carol Appleby dans un accident de voiture. Depuis, la vie de Yazid - devenu par la suite attaché de presse indépendant - est rythmée par les nouvelles de la « famille Hendrix », disputes avec la soeur adoptive Janie, rencontre avec ceux qui l'ont connu (B. B. King, Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney, Johnny Hallyday, Miles Davis, Taj Mahal), sorties d'albums (Jimi a davantage publié de disques une fois mort que vivant), disparition des témoins, Noel, Buddy Miles, Monika Dannemann (dernière compagne), Al Hendrix (son père) puis Mitch Mitchell. Il a construit sa vie autour d'un mort, de la mort en général. Yazid est un infatigable marcheur africain arpentant le pavé parisien en compagnie de son fantôme.

Do you know all the New Seven Wonders of the World? The list was officially finished in 2007 because there is just one wonder currently still standing from the old list: the Pyramids of Giza. The new wonders have their secrets. The mighty Taj Mahal, for example, can change color. And more than half of all the construction in Machu Picchu was done underground, so you can't even see it.

Some optical illusions can make celebrities look like they've swapped genders, and it's all about the way we see faces. Richard Russell, a researcher, studied how the contrast in facial features plays a big role in making a face look masculine or feminine. For example, women's faces naturally have darker eyes and lips compared to their skin, giving them higher contrast, while men's faces have less contrast. It's like a magic trick for your brain because it relies on how we're wired to interpret gender through subtle facial details. Let's see if this and other optical illusions can fool your brain easily.

A Nashville singer/songwriter and music producer with a 30-year career that includes writing songs for Trisha Yearwood (including recent single The Wall Or The Way Over), Keb' Mo' and Taj Mahal (including recent single Junkyard Dog), Cher, Bonnie Raitt, and Art Garfunkel, while simultaneously earning a sizeable cult following and consistent critical acclaim for her own releases.  Maia's 10th solo album, Tomboy, will be released on September 12th, it is an ultra-authentic Americana-adjacent record steeped in quiet gratitude, internal celebration, and a complete embrace of true self. The first single Tomboy grew out of Sharp and co-writer Emily Kopp jokingly trading photos from their tomboy childhoods – an idea that carries over into the song's lovingly nostalgic video (a second video has been created from photos submitted by fans). Sharp has been significantly shaped by her long involvement with Songwriting with Soldiers, a non-profit that pairs veterans, first responders and law enforcement with pro songwriters to create music about whichever part of their experience they choose to share.

In 1907, the men who would go on to lead the Russian Revolution met in London for a crucial congress.But the revolutionaries – including Vladimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin, and Leon Trotsky – were nearly stranded after running out of funds.The late British journalist Henry Brailsford played a key role in securing their fare home.In 1947, he told the BBC how the meeting marked a point of no return for the party's two warring factions – the Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks – and ultimately led to the creation of the communist party.Produced and presented by Vicky Farncombe.

In January 1994, two presidents enjoyed a memorable night in the Czech Republic – ending with an impromptu jazz performance.Five years after the fall of communism, the US president Bill Clinton visited Prague to share his hopes for a new transatlantic alliance.Key to his vision was his friendship with the Czech president Vaclav Havel, a playwright who had been imprisoned for dissidence during the Cold War.During the visit, Havel arranged a series of surprises for Clinton including a reunion with the family he had stayed with on a visit to Prague in 1970.The final surprise took place at the city's famous Reduta jazz club. Havel presented Clinton with a saxophone and the two friends performed together on stage – a moment which came to symbolise the new partnership between East and West.Vicky Farncombe uses archive from the Vaclav Havel Center and the William J Clinton Presidential Library to relive the big night out.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

In 1995, an international row broke out between Canada and Spain over fishing quotas. It started with gunfire and ended with a deal.The dispute began after Canada set up restrictions to protect fish stocks, including the turbot. A 320km (200 mile) controlled zone was placed around the country's north Atlantic coast. Fishermen also had to stick to quotas. But, according to Canada, some boats from the European Union were catching far more turbot than had been agreed. As a warning, the coastguard chased off one Spanish trawler, shooting machine gunfire over the bow and arresting the crew. But Spanish officials were furious and denied any wrongdoing. The Turbot War had begun. Brian Tobin was Canada's Minister for Fisheries and Oceans. He tells Jane Wilkinson about the part he played in the dispute.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Ten years ago, on 6 July the Greek people voted against the terms of a financial bailout which included raising taxes and slashing welfare spending. Greece owed €323bn to various countries and banks within Europe. Its banks were closed. A quarter of the population and half of Greece's young people were unemployed.The morning after the vote, Euclid Tsakalotos was brought in to replace Yanis Varoufakis as finance minister. His predecessor had accused European leaders of “terrorism” in their handling of the crisis. Parachuted in to last-ditch talks with angry European leaders, Euclid Tsakalotos describes to Josephine McDermott the make-or-break 17-hour summit in Brussels. He reveals that when Angela Merkel, the leader of Greece's biggest lender Germany, said she was leaving the room because she could not accept what was on the table, Donald Tusk, president of the European Council, actually locked the door to stop her leaving and force an agreement to be reached.

In 1982, Argentine geneticist Victor Penchaszadeh was living in exile in New York when he received a call that would change the course of his career. Two founding members of the campaign group, the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo, were asking for his help to find their kidnapped grandchildren. Between 1976 and 1983, Argentina was under military rule. During this period, thousands of mainly young, left-wing people were forcibly disappeared - taken to clandestine detention centres, where many were tortured and killed. Hundreds of babies were born in captivity. Their mothers were later murdered, and the children were often given to families with ties to the regime - and never told their true identities. The Grandmothers travelled the world, desperately asking scientists one question: Without the presence of the parents, could their blood be used to identify their lost grandchildren? Dr Penchaszadeh was the first to say yes. He tells Vicky Farncombe how that answer led to the creation of the world's first national genetic data bank—and the eventual reunion of 140 grandchildren with their real families.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

When Eva Peron, Argentina's most famous First Lady, died in 1952, her body was embalmed. Three years later, her widower, Juan Peron, was deposed in a coup. But military officers feared her corpse would become a rallying point of protest against the new government. So they stole it. Over the next few decades, Evita's body was stored in several different places in several different countries, inspiring wild stories about its supernatural powers. In 2013, Linda Pressly spoke to Domingo Tellechea, the art restorer charged with repairing the embalmed body.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

In 1985, Argentina's former military leaders were put on trial accused of kidnapping, torturing and murdering thousands of their own people. The ‘trial of the juntas' was the first major prosecution of war crimes since the Nuremberg trials following World War Two. Between 1976 and 1983, around 30 thousand people disappeared or were murdered in Argentina during the so-called Dirty War. Military leaders claimed the victims were left wing guerrillas plotting terrorist attacks against their dictatorships, but most weren't terrorists. They were trade unionists or protesters opposing the regime.Luis Moreno Ocampo was an assistant prosecutor during the trial and spoke to Jane Wilkinson about the case.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

In July 1985, music legends Mick Jagger and David Bowie were asked to perform a duet with a twist at Live Aid, the biggest concert in pop history. Utilising the latest satellite technology, Mick would perform on the US stage in Philadelphia, while David would perform on the UK stage at Wembley Stadium. As the technical issues were being discussed, it soon became obvious that a half-second delay in the link between cities would prevent the live performance from happening, so a recording was planned instead. A short list of songs was discussed before the duo finally settled on the Motown classic Dancing in the Street. Live Aid press officer Bernard Doherty tells Des Shaw how the duet and video were recorded in just 18 hours and became a highlight of the benefit concert on 13 July 1985.

Judging by how often US President Donald Trump has repeated the slogan “Drill, baby, drill”, you might think he coined it. But the phrase actually dates back to 2008. It was at the Republican National Convention that former Maryland Lieutenant Governor Michael Steele first used it, arguing the United States needed to become energy independent. The slogan, the result of what Michael describes as a late-night epiphany, quickly entered the mainstream of American politics - adopted by a range of politicians in the years that followed. He shares his memories of that moment with Marco Silva.This programme contains archive from: C-SPAN, PBS Newshour, Fox News, and CNN.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.
