Welcome back to When Words Fail, Music Speaks—the show that battles depression one riff at a time. I'm your host, James Cox, a proud “handicapped” rocker on a mission to prove that music has no language barriers.In today's episode we sit down with Askhan, the visionary founder, vocalist, and creative force behind Nine Treasures, the Mongolian folk‑metal outfit that's been turning heads worldwide. Fresh off the release of their new album and a landmark signing with Metal Blade Records, Oscar shares how the band fuses ancient Mongolian melodies—complete with the haunting horse‑head fiddle—into thunderous modern metal.We'll explore how Askhan balances reverence for his cultural heritage with personal storytelling, the Buddhist ideas that quietly shape his songwriting, and the collaborative shift that let his bandmates take the reins on half the new record. From his favorite global metal influences—Pantera, Megadeth, In Flames, and Children of Bodø—to his secret love of liquid drum‑and‑bass for relaxation, Askhan reveals the eclectic soundtrack that fuels his creative engine.Finally, we ask the big “what‑if” questions: which dead‑or‑alive artist would he love to collab with (hint: think Limp Bizkit), what message he wants the next generation of Mongolian metal musicians to carry forward, and the most powerful fan moment that proved music truly saves lives.Grab your headphones, settle in, and let the fusion of myth, metal, and mindfulness guide you through another powerful conversation—because when words fail, music always speaks.

If you love your belongings but feel overwhelmed by the piles, the mess, or the jam-packed closets, this episode is for you. Today, we're breaking down 6 compassionate, practical strategies to help you simplify — without forcing yourself to stop loving your things. This isn't about minimalism for minimalism's sake. It's about creating breathing room in your home so you can actually enjoy the things you love. In this episode, we cover: • Redefining What “Love” Really Means • The “Love It or Use It” Method • Benefits of a Temporary Separation Box And more.  The big takeaway: Loving your things isn't the issue. The issue is when your stuff takes up the space meant for living.

So Ben recently found* some VHS tapes* at a local thrift store*, and they turned out to be a treasure trove* of accidental Mexican silliness* the likes of which you cannot believe. I didn't put an asterisk on that last part because it's actually true.

The storm that ravaged villages along Alaska's west coast may have washed away thousands of artifacts that promised to provide valuable insights into early Yup'ik settlements. The storm destroyed nearly 60 feet of shoreline near the village of Quinhagak. Along with it was a site that was the source of early masks, tools and other items that make up the world's largest collection of Yup'ik artifacts housed at the local museum. Researchers, who were already racing to recover the items threatened by thawing permafrost, say as many as 10,000 artifacts could be lost. In another blow, thieves made off with more than a thousand artifacts from the Oakland Museum of California's off-site storage facility. Oakland police and the FBI are working to find the culprits and recover the items. The early assessment by authorities suggest the heist may have been more of a crime of opportunity than a targeted operation. GUESTS Cody Groat (Kanyen'kehaka'), assistant professor at the Department of History and the Indigenous Studies Program at the University of Western Ontario  Shannon O'Loughlin (Choctaw), chief executive and attorney at the Association on American Indian Affairs Lynn Marie Church (Yup'ik), CEO of Nalaquq, LLC  Rick Knecht, emeritus senior lecturer in archaeology at the University of Aberdeen

1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son makes a glad father; but a foolish son brings grief to his mother. 2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing, but righteousness delivers from death. 3 Yahweh will not allow the soul of the righteous to go hungry, but he thrusts away the desire of the wicked. 4 He becomes poor who works with a lazy hand, but the hand of the diligent brings wealth. 5 He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during the harvest is a son who causes shame. 6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but violence covers the mouth of the wicked. 7 The memory of the righteous is blessed, but the name of the wicked will rot. 8 The wise in heart accept commandments, but a chattering fool will fall. 9 He who walks blamelessly walks surely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out. 10 One who winks with the eye causes sorrow, but a chattering fool will fall. 11 The mouth of the righteous is a spring of life, but violence covers the mouth of the wicked. 12 Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all wrongs. 13 Wisdom is found on the lips of him who has discernment, but a rod is for the back of him who is void of understanding. 14 Wise men lay up knowledge, but the mouth of the foolish is near ruin. 15 The rich man's wealth is his strong city. The destruction of the poor is their poverty. 16 The labor of the righteous leads to life. The increase of the wicked leads to sin. 17 He is in the way of life who heeds correction, but he who forsakes reproof leads others astray. 18 He who hides hatred has lying lips. He who utters a slander is a fool. 19 In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience, but he who restrains his lips does wisely. 20 The tongue of the righteous is like choice silver. The heart of the wicked is of little worth. 21 The lips of the righteous feed many, but the foolish die for lack of understanding. 22 Yahweh's blessing brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it. 23 It is a fool's pleasure to do wickedness, but wisdom is a man of understanding's pleasure. 24 What the wicked fear will overtake them, but the desire of the righteous will be granted. 25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more; but the righteous stand firm forever. 26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to those who send him. 27 The fear of Yahweh prolongs days, but the years of the wicked shall be shortened. 28 The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hope of the wicked will perish. 29 The way of Yahweh is a stronghold to the upright, but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity. 30 The righteous will never be removed, but the wicked will not dwell in the land. 31 The mouth of the righteous produces wisdom, but the perverse tongue will be cut off. 32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked is perverse.

Fluent Fiction - Serbian: Foggy Adventures: Unveiling Autumn's Hidden Treasures Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/sr/episode/2025-11-10-08-38-20-sr Story Transcript:Sr: У срцу Националног парка Тара, јесен је доносила свој живописни спектакл.En: In the heart of National Park Tara, autumn was bringing its vivid spectacle.Sr: Лазар, Милица и Бојан решили су кренути на путовање како би доживели ову спектакуларну смотру боја и посетили историјску дрвену цркву.En: Lazar, Milica, and Bojan decided to set off on a journey to experience this spectacular display of colors and visit the historic wooden church.Sr: Док су пролазили стазом окруженом дрвећем које се блистало у црвеним и жутим нијансама, свако је имао своје циљеве.En: As they walked along a path surrounded by trees shining in red and yellow hues, each had their own goals.Sr: Лазар, фотограф у потрази за савршеним снимком, био је одлучан да ухвати лепоту цркве на позадини јесењег лишћа.En: Lazar, a photographer in search of the perfect shot, was determined to capture the beauty of the church against the backdrop of autumn foliage.Sr: Његова жеља за савршеним кадром често га је усмеравала далеко од овоземаљских брига.En: His desire for the perfect frame often led him far away from mundane worries.Sr: Милица је, пак, дуго сањала о томе да види ту стару цркву, чувену по својој историји и лепоти.En: Milica, on the other hand, had long dreamed of seeing that old church, renowned for its history and beauty.Sr: Иако стрпљива, знала је да се може пожурити само до одређене мере.En: Though patient, she knew they could only hurry to a certain extent.Sr: Бојан, са великим интересовањем за ботанику, радовао се упознавању са јединственом флором парка.En: Bojan, with a great interest in botany, was looking forward to getting to know the unique flora of the park.Sr: Његово предузетно дух га је понекад водило с утабаног пута.En: His enterprising spirit sometimes led him off the beaten path.Sr: Док су се шетали, изненада је почела да пада густа магла која је завила цео пејзаж у мистерију.En: As they strolled, a thick fog suddenly began to fall, shrouding the entire landscape in mystery.Sr: Видљивост је постала ограничена и страхови су почели да се јављају.En: Visibility became limited, and fears started to arise.Sr: Милица је предлагала да се врате, забринута да ће се изгубити, али Лазар је инсистирао да наставе.En: Milica suggested returning, worried they would get lost, but Lazar insisted they continue.Sr: Бојан је без оклевања подржао Лазара, нудећи да их води својим познавањем парка.En: Bojan supported Lazar without hesitation, offering to guide them with his knowledge of the park.Sr: Како су даље корачали, тензије су се подизале, а пут је изгледао све више неразумљив.En: As they walked further, tensions rose, and the path seemed increasingly incomprehensible.Sr: Магла је обгрлила све око њих, чинећи да црква пркосно избегава њихов поглед.En: The fog enveloped everything around them, causing the church to defiantly elude their view.Sr: Управо када су почели да губе наду, магла се кратко подигла, откривајући пред њима величанствени призор.En: Just when they began to lose hope, the fog briefly lifted, revealing a magnificent sight before them.Sr: Црква је стајала величанствена пред њима, окружена ватреним шарама јесењих боја.En: The church stood majestically before them, surrounded by fiery patterns of autumn colors.Sr: Лазар је брзо извукао свој фотоапарат и ухватио тај савршен тренутак, док су Милица и Бојан стајали у тишини, занети лепотом призора.En: Lazar quickly pulled out his camera and captured that perfect moment, while Milica and Bojan stood in silence, entranced by the beauty of the scene.Sr: Када се магла поново спустила, Бојан је успешно водио групу натраг, пратећи познате трагове до излаза из парка.En: When the fog descended again, Bojan successfully led the group back, following familiar tracks to the park's exit.Sr: Успели су безбедно да се врате, захваљујући Бојановој сналажљивости.En: They managed to return safely, thanks to Bojan's resourcefulness.Sr: Лазар је научио да је понекад важно слушати забринутости својих пријатеља, чак и кад страст захвати сву пажњу.En: Lazar learned that it's sometimes important to heed his friends' concerns, even when passion consumes all attention.Sr: Милица је постала спремнија да прихвати неочекивано, схвативши да спонтаност носи своје лепоте.En: Milica became more willing to embrace the unexpected, realizing that spontaneity carries its own beauty.Sr: Бојан је схватио да његове импулсивне одлуке могу имати последице, али такође ценио је важност равнотеже између опреза и авантуре.En: Bojan understood that his impulsive decisions could have consequences, but he also appreciated the importance of balancing caution and adventure.Sr: На крају, путовање им је донело више него што су очекивали.En: In the end, the journey brought them more than they expected.Sr: Сваки од њих понео је кући нешто више од фотографије - понео је искуство које је обогатило њихова срца и њихова пријатељства.En: Each of them carried home something more than just a photograph—they carried an experience that enriched their hearts and their friendships.

True generosity isn't measured by the size of our gift, but by the heart behind it. In the midst of rising need and widening gaps in the city, Jesus spotlights the widow who gave all she had—she trusted God fully with her small, sacrificial gift (Mark 12:43–44 NIV). Let's make generosity our rhythm, sharing lovingly even when resources feel limited. Every act of kindness brings light to our city! If you are new to Community Church, WELCOME! We would love to get to know you. Please fill in the following form and we look forward to connecting with you: https://bit.ly/cc-new-connect You can find all timely and relevant links from this service on https://bit.ly/cc-links You can also find out more about us at https://communitychurch.hk/ ================ This Week's Scripture: // Matthew 6:19-26 // Treasures in Heaven Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness! ‘No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money. Do Not Worry Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

TODAY'S TREASURETherefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and the sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.Hebrews 12:1-3Send us a comment!Support the show

Although they cater to different senses, photography and music share much in common. In both these arts, timing, rhythm, and mood are key. It's been a while since we've mixed photography and music on the show, so we're particularly excited about today's chat with two photographers who share a passion for documenting musicians and their fans—in particular, devotes of punk and indie rock. From early memories of being truly moved by music to practical tips about photo access, image rights and restrictions, plus the complexities of organizing your work for a book, the conversation doesn't miss a beat. So, turn up the volume as Bootsy Holler reminisces about dropping into the Seattle music scene in the early 1990's to capture the raw energy of her favorite bands, now compiled in the book Making It: An Intimate Documentary about the Seattle Indie, Rock and Punk Scene. And Chris Ortiz describes how the house parties he captured at a punk commune in Kansas served as the foundation for his skills as a music photographer with a keen eye for differentiating himself in the photo pit. As Chris points out when it comes to preparing for a show. "It goes back to knowing that music and knowing the band, and being able to sit back and say, Yes, I am a fan of the band, but I also am professional, so this is what I'm going to look for when the band comes out."

One of the hardest categories to declutter? Clothes that no longer fit. But just because it's complicated doesn't mean we can't tackle it and make progress (without the overly simplistic approach to just get rid of anything that doesn't fit right now). In this episode, we'll start with validation—why it makes sense to feel stuck when your closet doesn't match your current body—and then move into practical steps for decluttering clothes when your weight has fluctuated. You'll hear: • Three normal reasons women's bodies change size (from pregnancy to hormones to stress) • Why your body's size doesn't define your worth • The real problem with women's sizing • Five practical tips for editing your wardrobe with compassion — including how to create a “maybe” bin with boundaries This isn't about giving up. It's about creating a closet that fits the you who exists today. Listen now to learn how to simplify your wardrobe without shame—and make peace with the body you live in right now.

Enclosed within the city of Rome and spanning just 0.2 square miles, Vatican City is the world's smallest independent state. Yet within its fortified walls lies a history of immense power - a city that became the beating heart of Catholicism, where popes crowned emperors, defied kings, and shaped the course of world events. How did this unassuming patch of land rise to become the centre of global faith and authority? What scandals, schisms, and sacrifices threatened to tear it apart? And why, even today, does this ancient enclave still hold sway over more than a billion lives? This is a Short History Of The Vatican. A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins. With thanks to Father Michael Collins, author of multiple books on the Vatican and Christianity, including The Vatican – Secrets and Treasures of the Holy City.

He took him gently by the chin. "Your instincts are doing this… do you even know what that means?"Sirius's eyes were wide as he looked up at him. Saucer like. Reflecting the dying light of the sunset outside the barn back to Remus in pools of silver. He looked so small and vulnerable in the cool air and Remus just wanted to tuck him closer again. To take care of him. And then Sirius opened his mouth to speak, and Remus was lost at his words."You could show me…"orSirius and Remus have a roll in the hay ;)Creatorsunlogical nonesence | TumblrBurningAurora | Tumblr | AO3 | Linktree Kaleana | Tumblr | AO3 flowerhawk_highinthesky | Tumblr | AO3

Treasures in Jars of Clay

TODAY'S TREASUREBy faith Moses' parents hid him for three months after he was born, because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the king's edict. By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter. He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a short time. He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward. By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible. By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel.Hebrews 11:23- 28 (ESV)Send us a comment!Support the show

You know that moment when your players spend ten minutes searching a room, roll a 5, and you sigh before saying, "You find… nothing"? Yeah, we're done with that. In this episode, the RPGBOT crew grabs the Dungeon Master's Guide by the binding and asks the real questions: Why are searches so boring, and why do your players keep looting every chair leg like it's the Ark of the Covenant? It's time to make treasure exciting again — and maybe throw in a cursed spoon or two for good measure. Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts dive into using random treasure and how to make it fun. Not ready for the burden of homebrewing every magical baubel the players find? Still want treasure to feel cool and exciting instead of handing out 2d4 silver pieces? Grab a random treasure table and listen in. They cover: How to curate random treasures so rewards feel tailored, not tacked on. Procedural generation and OSR-style loot tables for DMs who want surprise without chaos. The psychology of reward design—why a potion of healing can feel more exciting than a +1 sword. How Pathfinder 2e's treasure parcel system solves common D&D loot issues. Turning random loot into story hooks that feed back into your worldbuilding. Whether you're running a gritty hexcrawl, a dungeon delve, or a modern urban fantasy, you'll walk away with tools to hoard of treasure hoards and make every treasure feel earned. Key Takeaways Roll less, describe more. Replace meaningless Perception checks with interactive exploration and sensory clues. Random doesn't mean meaningless. Curate your treasure tables around your campaign's themes. Passive Perception is your pacing tool. Use it to keep exploration snappy without robbing players of agency. Economy matters. Gold, consumables, and downtime rewards all affect campaign health. Player engagement > item rarity. Surprise players with creativity, not just loot value. Procedural tools save prep time. Random tables and generators can be incredible when you understand their purpose. Reward discovery, not just dice. Make your players feel clever when they find something hidden — even if you planned it all along. If you've ever caught yourself saying "You find nothing," it's time to level up your DM game.

I loved this casual, relatable conversation with Courtney Florey of Declutter & Dwell to explore a surprisingly powerful way to prevent clutter before it starts: Getting clear on your personal preferences. Together, we unpack: Why developing contentment is key to simplifying your home and your habits Practical actions to uncover what you truly love (beyond trends or what others say you “should” like) How knowing your preferences helps you make confident decisions when shopping or decorating My somewhat embarrassing story of subconsciously making purchases to impress the internet—and how cutting back on sharing my family revealed this underlying motivation This episode is a reminder that a clutter-free home doesn't just come from organizing better—it starts with knowing yourself better.

What Happened to the Missing Louvre Treasures? The pressure on French law enforcement was immense. This wasn't just a robbery; it was a national embarrassment. France's Justice Minister, Gérald Darmanin, publicly said the robbery painted a "deplorable image of France." In response, a massive investigation was launched, mobilizing over 100 of the country's best investigators. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
