gently—a small earthquake.Da: Stenene over dem raslede, men heldigvis stoppede bevægelsen hurtigt.En: The stones above them rattled, but fortunately, the movement stopped quickly.Da: I passagens enden

keep it within my family," she said decisively.Da: Astrid nikkede, respektfyldt.En: Astrid nodded respectfully.Da: "Din arv, dit ansvar."En: "Your heritage, your responsibility."Da: Selvom hendes teori måske aldrig ville blive offentlig, indså Astrid værdien af lokale traditioner.En: Although her theory might never be publicized, Astrid realized the value of local traditions.Da: Emil, der havde følt sig overvældet, fik en ny respekt for modet, de havde udvist.En: Emil, who had felt overwhelmed, gained a newfound respect for the courage they had shown.Da: Og Freja?En: And Freja?Da: Hun fik en ny forståelse af, hvad det ville sige at være vogter af sin historie.En: She gained a new understanding of what it meant to be the guardian of her history.Da: Samme aften, da skyggerne blev lange over Knossos, gik de tre tilbage til deres liv – berigede af hinandens selskab og opdagelsen af hemmeligheden, som nu var i sikre hænder.En: That same evening, as the shadows grew long over Knossos, the three returned to their lives—enriched by each other's company and the discovery of the secret, now in safe hands.

The podcast delves into the profound journey of Jeremy Spillane, who narrates his experiences following the passing of his mother-in-law, Joan, and father-in-law, Roger. This episode emphasizes the remarkable signs and communications that Jeremy and his wife Caroline believe they received from Joan after her sudden death. Within days of her passing, they noticed inexplicable phenomena, such as televisions turning on unexpectedly, which they interpreted as messages from Joan. This initial experience catalyzed Jeremy's exploration into the world of paranormal investigations, leading him to acquire various ghost-hunting equipment, including a K2 meter, an SLS camera, and an Ovilus device. He recounts the emotional encounters they had with these devices, particularly when they were able to capture Roger's spirit as a stick figure on the SLS camera, thus affirming their belief in the existence of an afterlife. Throughout the discussion, the themes of loss, the quest for understanding, and the interplay between technology and the spiritual realm are intricately woven together, providing listeners with a compelling narrative that challenges the boundaries of conventional belief.Pre-order Joan and Roger Alive in the Afterlife on Amazon:https://amzn.to/4sPwSfU

through thin clouds, giving a gentle warmth.Sv: Det var påsk, och små lokala marknader sålde färgglada fjädrar och handgjorda dekorationer.En: It was Easter, and small local markets were selling colorful feathers and handmade decorations.Sv: Lina var fylld av förväntan.En: Lina was filled with anticipation.Sv: Hon hade alltid älskat påsken och den speciella känslan av vår i luften.En: She had always loved Easter and the special feeling of spring in the air.Sv: Med hennes kamera i handen och anteckningsbok i ryggsäcken, var Lina redo för dagens äventyr.En: With her camera in hand and notebook in her backpack, Lina was ready for the day's adventure.Sv: Hon ville hitta något unikt, bortom de vanliga turistattraktionerna.En: She wanted to find something unique, beyond the usual tourist attractions.Sv: Hon såg på kartan hon hade i handen, men något inom henne sa att det fanns mer att upptäcka än vad den visade.En: She looked at the map she had in her hand, but something inside her said there was more to discover than what it showed.Sv: Erik och Karl, hennes vänner, hade redan gått för att köpa fika.En: Erik and Karl, her friends, had already gone to buy snacks.Sv: De älskade besökarnas energi i Gamla Stan, men Lina var på jakt efter något mer.En: They loved the energy of tourists in Gamla Stan, but Lina was in search of something more.Sv: Hon tog ett djupt andetag och bestämde sig för att lämna kartan.En: She took a deep breath and decided to leave the map behind.Sv: Hon vände sig mot en smal gränd, dold bakom en blomsteraffär med gula och blå flaggor som viftade i den ljumma brisen.En: She turned towards a narrow alley, hidden behind a flower shop with yellow and blue flags waving in the mild breeze.Sv: Gränderna var som en labyrint.En: The alleys were like a labyrinth.Sv: Vackra, gamla byggnader med färgglada fasader och tunga, träportar kantade de smala gatorna.En: Beautiful, old buildings with colorful facades and heavy wooden doors lined the narrow streets.Sv: Lina gick längs kullerstensvägarna, där ljudet av hennes steg studsade mellan väggarna.En: Lina walked along the cobblestone paths, where the sound of her steps bounced between the walls.Sv: Hon svängde flera gånger, följde sitt hjärta och inte kartan.En: She turned several times, following her heart and not the map.Sv: Efter en stund började hon tvivla.En: After a while, she began to doubt.Sv: Hon kände sig lite vilse men nu var hon fast besluten om att fortsätta.En: She felt a bit lost but now was determined to continue.Sv: Och då, helt oväntat, stod hon framför en liten, nästan osynlig dörr.En: And then, completely unexpectedly, she stood in front of a small, almost invisible door.Sv: Nyfikenheten tog över, och hon öppnade den försiktigt.En: Curiosity took over, and she opened it carefully.Sv: Bakom dörren fann Lina en hemlig innergård.En: Behind the door, Lina found a secret courtyard.Sv: Det var som att gå in i en annan värld.En: It was like stepping into another world.Sv: På gården fanns det människor som dekorerade med påskliljor och små bord fulla av påsmat.En: In the courtyard, there were people decorating with daffodils and small tables full of Easter goodies.Sv: Färgerna var starka och glada, och ljudet av skratt ekade runt omkring henne.En: The colors were vibrant and cheerful, and the sound of laughter echoed around her.Sv: Där fann hon äntligen vad hon letat efter.En: There she finally found what she had been looking for.Sv: Lokala påsktraditioner levde kvar här, bortom turiststråken.En: Local Easter traditions lived on here,

sånger.En: The happy faces, the playing children, the elders singing old songs.Sv: Allt förevigades i Linas lins.En: Everything was captured through Lina's lens.Sv: När hon hade tagit sina bilder, bjöd en äldre dam henne att smaka på en traditionell påskkaka.En: After she had taken her pictures, an elderly lady invited her to taste a traditional Easter cake.Sv: Lina tog emot den med ett leende och lät smakerna smälta på tungan.En: Lina accepted it with a smile and let the flavors melt on her tongue.Sv: Snart befann hon sig i samtal med de som bodde här och kände sig som en del av gemenskapen.En: Soon, she found herself in conversation with those who lived there and felt like a part of the community.Sv: Lina kände att hon hade funnit mycket mer än bara en vacker plats.En: Lina

lokalborna.En: Before she left, she exchanged contact information with some of the locals.Sv: Vänner som hon inte hade planerat att träffa, men som ändå nu var en del av hennes äventyr.En: Friends she hadn't planned to meet, but who now were part of her adventure.Sv: Erik och Karl mötte henne senare och ville veta allt som hänt.En: Erik and Karl met her later and wanted to know everything that had happened.Sv: Lina skrattade och berättade om sin upptäcktsfärd.En: Lina laughed and told them about her exploration.Sv: Hon insåg, att ibland, är de bästa äventyren de som man verkligen inte planerat.En: She realized that sometimes, the best adventures are the ones you haven't actually planned.Sv: Och Gamla Stan hade erbjudit henne just detta.En: And Gamla Stan had offered her just that.

What comes to mind when you hear the term, “Spiritual Warfare?” Most christians associate “Spiritual Warfare” with exorcisms or demonic activity such as manifestations, encounters or demonic oppression. But what exactly is “Spiritual Warfare?” And how should Christians and the church go about engaging and overcoming the schemes of Satan? Revelation chapter 12 provides answers to these pressing questions.https://midtownchurch.com/

Sermon on 2 Corinthians 4:1–6, by Jordan Hunt

Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson has announced a plan to add 1,000 shelter beds to address the city's growing homelessness problem. However, concrete details regarding the execution and funding of this ambitious project remain scarce. Wilson aims to utilize tiny home villages, proposing legislation to streamline permitting and encourage community involvement. While forwarding three legislative pieces, including easing lease agreements and allocating $4.5 million, concerns linger about the plan's overall financial viability. Increasing the size of tiny home villages is part of the strategy, yet residents in areas like the Central District express a need for safety and guidelines. This initiative sparks debate on effective solutions for Seattle's homelessness crisis, the role of city leadership, and financial responsibility. The homeless plan and Seattle's future are at stake. Seattle, Katie Wilson, homelessness, tiny homes.

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary - Series 29 Episode 28In this episode of SpaceTime, we dive into the groundbreaking mapping of Uranus's upper atmosphere, the European Space Agency's innovative Planetary Defense Fly Eye Telescope, and NASA's critical findings on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft.Mapping Uranus's Upper AtmosphereA new study has successfully created a three-dimensional map of Uranus's upper atmosphere, revealing how the ice giant's unusual magnetic field influences its auroral activity. This detailed mapping, reported in Geophysical Research Letters, shows emissions from molecules located up to 5,000 kilometers above the cloud tops, confirming a cooling trend over the past 30 years. The research highlights the complex dynamics of Uranus's magnetosphere, which is tilted and offset, leading to unique auroral patterns unlike any other planet in our solar system.ESA's Fly Eye Telescope for Planetary DefenseThe European Space Agency is developing the Fly Eye Telescope, designed to detect Near Earth Objects (NEOs) that could pose a threat to Earth. Inspired by the compound eye of insects, this innovative telescope uses a unique design to scan vast areas of the sky efficiently, identifying potential impact risks. With plans for a network of these telescopes, ESA aims to enhance our capability to monitor and mitigate the dangers posed by asteroids and comets.Nasa's Scathing Robert on Boeing's StarlinerNASA has released a critical report detailing the failures of Boeing's CST-100 Starliner spacecraft, highlighting engineering vulnerabilities and internal mistakes that jeopardized crew safety. The investigation found Starliner less reliable for crew survival compared to other manned spacecraft, leading to a recommendation that no further crewed flights occur until all technical issues are resolved. The report underscores the need for stringent oversight in space missions to ensure astronaut safety.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesGeophysical Research LettersSupport our podcast: Become a supporter.

en nyfundet identitet og en stærkere forbindelse til deres rødder.En: And although they had walked down the dark stairs to solve a mystery, they now ascended with much more—a newfound identity and a stronger connection to their roots.

Ever wondered why lovers kneel on one knee to ask, “will you marry me”? It's actually less about the kneeling - it's more about the ring…Engagement rings are part of a tradition which dates back to Ancient Rome. They symbolized a legally binding commitment, reserved for the most solemn of oaths. Pretty unromantic...Things have changed quite a bit since ancient times… asking somebody's hand is something very passionate… and today, any kind of jewel can be used for an engagement.. rings, earrings, a bracelet, watch, or a necklace... Some people prefer to embrace tradition, others like to rock the boat… Just like American rapper A$AP Rocky when he proposed to girlfriend and pop icon, Rihanna…Voice of Jewels, a podcast from L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts supported by Van Cleef & Arpels. Unveiling the stories and secrets behind History's most fascinating jewels.With Léonard Pouy, Professor of Art History and Content and Transmission Manager at L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.Written by Martin Quenehen and Aram Kebabdjian, performed by Edoardo Ballerini and produced by Bababam.

In this special episode, Amoda Maa shares selected passages from her book Unveiling the Light of Being, including reflections from the introduction, "The Direct Path," guided meditative inquiry, and later chapters such as "Living as a Prayer" and "A Deeper Knowing of Presence." Through clear and compassionate pointers, she invites listeners into the simple recognition of being — a meditation without method, a resting as awareness itself. These readings point directly to the end of separation and the unveiling of our true nature. The episode also includes brief dialogue and questions from participants on surrender, conditioning, and the maturation of spiritual understanding. Awakening is not something to attain. It is the recognition of what has always been here.

There is good ozone and bad ozone. We are discussing the bad ozone today, the one we breathe and can be harmful to our health. Daniel Mendoza, a research associate professor at the University of Utah, discusses the chemistry behind ozone formation, primarily from nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds intensified by sunlight. Daniel has started a project to measure air quality and heat in rural Utah communities, using both indoor and outdoor sensors. The discussion includes the challenges of ozone measurement, the role of vegetation like sagebrush in VOC emissions, and the potential benefits of using public cooling centers as environmental refuges.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Unveiling Castle Secrets: A Journey Into Friendship and Discovery Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-03-02-08-38-20-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Buda várnegyedében, korai tavaszi napfényben fürdőzve, László, Éva és Zoltán egy különleges titok nyomában jártak.En: In the Buda Castle District, basking in the early spring sunshine, László, Éva, and Zoltán were on the trail of a special secret.Hu: A friss levegő már a tél végét hirdette, ahogy a három barát a vár vastag falai között időzött.En: The fresh air heralded the end of winter as the three friends lingered among the thick walls of the castle.Hu: László, a mindig kíváncsi fiatal történész, izgatottan mesélt Évának és Zoltánnak egy rég elfeledett legendáról, amely egy elrejtett kincshez kötődött.En: László, the always curious young historian, excitedly told Éva and Zoltán about a long-forgotten legend linked to a hidden treasure.Hu: „Nézzétek, ez lehet a kapocs!En: "Look, this could be the connection!"Hu: ” – mutatott László egy üvegszekrényben kiállított objektumra.En: László pointed to an object displayed in a glass cabinet.Hu: Az apró tárgyat már évszázadok óta ott őrizték, ám titokzatos története csak most kezdett kibontakozni.En: The small item had been kept there for centuries, but its mysterious story was only now beginning to unfold.Hu: Éva, a sokat tudó idegenvezető, szkeptikus mosollyal nézett rá.En: Éva, the knowledgeable tour guide, looked at him with a skeptical smile.Hu: Ő inkább a bizonyított történetek híve volt, nem a mítoszoké.En: She was more of a fan of proven histories, not myths.Hu: Zoltán, az archeológia hallgató, csillogó szemmel bámulta a tárgyat.En: Zoltán, the archaeology student, gazed at the object with sparkling eyes.Hu: Látta benne a lehetőséget, amellyel végre kitűnhetne.En: He saw in it the opportunity to finally stand out.Hu: Az üvegszekrény körül forogtak gondolataik.En: Their thoughts revolved around the glass cabinet.Hu: A tárgy törékeny volt, és közelebbi vizsgálatot nem engedtek neki.En: The object was fragile and closer examination wasn't allowed.Hu: László, bár tisztában volt Éva kételyeivel, úgy határozott, megpróbálják együtt összegyűjteni a szükséges történelmi bizonyítékokat.En: Though László was aware of Éva's doubts, he decided they should try to gather the necessary historical evidence together.Hu: Ráadásul, szeretett volna Zoltán elől eltitkolni, amíg csak lehetett, hogy új felfedezést találtak.En: Moreover, he wanted to conceal from Zoltán as long as possible that they had made a new discovery.Hu: Hármasban jártak be minden lehetséges könyvtárat és archívumot, ahol a legendáról bármilyen információra bukkanhattak.En: The three of them visited every possible library and archive where they could find any information about the legend.Hu: Hónapokig tartott a kutatás, mígnem végül engedélyt kaptak, hogy megvizsgálhassák a tárgyat.En: The research took months, until they finally received permission to examine the object.Hu: Ujjaik remegtek az izgalomtól, mikor óvatosan felemelték az üveget.En: Their fingers trembled with excitement as they carefully lifted the glass.Hu: Az apró tárgy finom véseteket rejtett: Ősi írást, amely László elméletét igazolhatta.En: The small object hid delicate engravings: Ancient writing that could confirm László's theory.Hu: Éva, bár eleinte hitetlen volt, most óvatosan László felé fordult.En: Though initially skeptical, Éva now cautiously turned to László.Hu: Szavaik csupán suttogássá olvadtak, miközben Zoltán is elnémult, és a csodálatos felfedezés súlyát érezte.En: Their words melted into mere whispers as Zoltán also fell silent, feeling the weight of the marvelous discovery.Hu: „Dokumentálnunk kell ezt” – suttogta végül Éva, mintha attól tartott volna, hogy a tárgy elárasztja őket titkaival.En: "We must document this," Éva finally whispered, as if she feared the object would overwhelm them with its secrets.Hu: László bólintott, és már tudta, hogy ebben a pillanatban mindenki hozzájárul a sikerhez.En: László nodded, already knowing that, in this moment, everyone was contributing to the success.Hu: Éva történelmi tudása, Zoltán archeológiai érdeklődése és az ő kitartó szenvedélye együtt hozták el a felfedezést.En: Éva's historical knowledge, Zoltán's archaeological interest, and his own persistent passion together brought about the discovery.Hu: Ahogy együtt dolgoztak, mindhárman gazdagabbá váltak emberileg is.En: As they worked together, all three became richer as people too.Hu: László megtanulta tisztelni a csapatmunka erejét, Éva elkezdte kutatni a mítoszokat is, Zoltán pedig megértette, hogy az egyéni dicsőség helyett milyen fontos a közös siker.En: László learned to respect the power of teamwork, Éva began to explore myths as well, and Zoltán understood that common success was more important than individual glory.Hu: A budai vár újabb titkot tárhatott fel a világ előtt, és ők mindhárman elindultak a hírnév felé, de legfőképpen egy új barátság hajóján úsztak a naplementébe.En: Buda Castle could reveal another secret to the world, and they all set sail towards fame, but most importantly, they sailed into the sunset on the ship of a new friendship.

falling on the ancient ruins of the Mehrauli Archaeological Park.Hi: तीन दोस्त, आरव, मीरा और नंदिनी, इस ऐतिहासिक स्थान की सैर के लिए आए थे।En: Three friends, Arav, Meera, and Nandini, had come to visit this historical site.Hi: आरव को इतिहास से गहरी लगाव था।En: Arav had a deep affection for history.Hi: उसने सुना था कि इन खंडहरों में एक छुपा हुआ मार्ग है, जो अब तक किसी ने खोजा नहीं था।En: He had heard that there was a hidden path in these ruins that had not been discovered by anyone yet.Hi: हालांकि, मीरा हमेशा उसकी खोजी प्रवृत्ति से थोड़ा चिंतित रहती थी।En: However, Meera always felt a bit concerned about his exploratory nature.Hi: उसे डर था कि कहीं वे खो न जाएं।En: She was afraid they might get lost.Hi: नंदिनी, अपने दोस्तों के साथ समय बिताने के लिए उत्सुक थी और उसे हर स्थिति में मज़ा आता था।En: Nandini, eager to spend time with her friends, found joy in every situation.Hi: वे तीनों पार्क में घूमते हुए पुराने रास्तों पर चलने लगे।En: The three of them began walking on the old paths in the park.Hi: आरव उत्साह में आगे-आगे था, मानो किसी खजाने की खोज में हो।En: Arav was leading the way with enthusiasm, as if he was seeking treasure.Hi: मीरा उसे बार-बार सावधान कर रही थी, "आरव, कहीं खो न जाएं।En: Meera kept cautioning him, "Arav, let's not get lost."Hi: ""अरे, कोई बात नहीं," आरव ने हंसकर कहा, "यह सब रोमांच का हिस्सा है।En: "Oh, it's no big deal," Arav said with a laugh, "It's all part of the adventure."Hi: "अचानक, आरव ने एक कम-ज्ञात गली में मोड़ लिया।En: Suddenly, Arav turned into a lesser-known alley.Hi: इस जगह की ऊंची दीवारें और घना अंधेरा उसे अत्यधिक रोमांचित कर रहा था।En: The high walls and dense darkness of the place thrilled him immensely.Hi: मीरा झुंझलाते हुए बोली, "यहां जाने का कोई फायदा नहीं है, आरव।En: An annoyed Meera remarked, "There's no point in going here, Arav."Hi: ""बस एक बार देख लो।En: "Just take a look.Hi: मैंने सुना है यहाँ कुछ पुराने नक़्शे हैं," आरव ने उसे समझाने की कोशिश की।En: I've heard there are some old maps here," Arav tried to persuade her.Hi: आखिरकार, मीरा ने भी आरव के पीछे चल दिया।En: Eventually, Meera followed Arav.Hi: नंदिनी ने उनकी हिम्मत बढ़ाते हुए कहा, "चलो, नया कुछ देखने को मिलेगा।En: Encouraging them, Nandini said, "Come on, we might see something new."Hi: "सभी तीनों भीतर पहुँचे और जल्द ही एक छुपे हुए कक्ष में पहुँच गए।En: All three reached inside and soon found themselves in a hidden chamber.Hi: वहाँ की दीवारें प्राचीन मूर्तियों और नक्काशियों से भरी हुई थीं।En: The walls were filled with ancient sculptures and carvings.Hi: आरव की आँखें इस अद्भुत दृश्य को देखकर चमक उठीं।En: Arav's eyes lit up at this marvelous sight.Hi: "वाह!En: "Wow!Hi: यह अविश्वसनीय है," आरव ने सहमति जताई।En: This is incredible," Arav agreed.Hi: लेकिन तभी मीरा की चिंता बढ़ गई, "अरे, अंधेरा बढ़ रहा है।En: But then Meera's concern grew, "Hey, it's getting darker.Hi: हमें यहाँ से बाहर निकलना होगा।En: We need to get out of here."Hi: "अचानक उन्हें एहसास हुआ कि समय तेज़ी से बीत गया था और शाम का समय हो चला था।En: Suddenly, they realized that time had passed quickly and it was now evening.Hi: सबअंधेरा हो गया था।En: Darkness had fallen all around.Hi: मीरा की चिंता और बढ़ गई।En: Meera's concern increased further.Hi: नंदिनी, जो हमेशा से अच्छी दिशा समझती थी, ने कहा, "घबराओ मत।En: Nandini, who always had a good sense of direction, said, "Don't worry.Hi: मैं रास्ता समझती हूँ।En: I know the way."Hi: "वे तीनों धीरे-धीरे अंधेरे में अपने कदम बढ़ाते हुए बाहर के रास्ते की ओर बढ़े।En: The three of them slowly moved their feet towards the way out in the darkness.Hi: अंततः, नंदिनी की दिशा समझ के कारण, वे सुरक्षित बाहर पहुँच गए।En: Eventually, thanks to Nandini's sense of direction, they reached outside safely.Hi: ताजगी भरी हवा में सांस लेते हुए मीरा ने कहा, "तुम्हारा रोमांच हर बार मुझे चिंतित करता है, लेकिन हमें कितना कुछ देखने को मिला!En: Breathing in the refreshing air, Meera said, "Your adventure always worries me, but we got to see so much!"Hi: "आरव ने मुस्कराते हुए कहा, "अगर हम हमेशा डरते रहेंगे, तो जीवन में कुछ नया कैसे पाएंगे?En: Smiling, Arav said, "If we're always afraid, how will we find something new in life?"Hi: "मीरा ने उसकी बात मान ली, "ठीक कहा, हमें कभी-कभी थोड़ा जोखिम भी लेना चाहिए।En: Meera agreed, "You're right, sometimes we should take a little risk."Hi: "वो तीनों पार्क के गेट की ओर बढ़े, उस अनोखे अनुभव को याद करते हुए।En: The three of them headed towards the park gate, reminiscing about that unique experience.Hi: ये सफर उन्हें यह सिखा गया कि खोज और सुरक्षा के बीच संतुलन कैसे बनाना चाहिए।En: This journey taught them how to balance exploration with safety.Hi: अंत में, मीरा और भी खुले दिमाग की हो गई और आरव की साहसी भावना को सराहने लगी।En: In the end, Meera became more open-minded and began to appreciate Arav's adventurous spirit.Hi: उन्होंने फैसला किया कि अगली बार वे और भी नए स्थानों की खोज करेंगे।En: They decided that next time, they would explore even more new places.

In Segment 1, Grant dives into the complicated current state of the LA Clippers. Sitting at 27-30 on the season, the team is at a massive crossroads amid rumors of looming league punishments surrounding the Aspiration scandal, which could potentially void Kawhi Leonard's contract. However, there is a massive silver lining shining at the Intuit Dome: Bennedict Mathurin. Since arriving at the trade deadline, Mathurin has been an absolute revelation, including a 38-point showcase against the Nuggets. Grant breaks down why the 23-year-old's elite isolation scoring proves he can be the franchise's next foundational star. In Segment 2, we shift from the future of LA basketball to its legendary past to honor the "Godfather of Showtime." We hear directly from Pat Riley following the long-awaited unveiling of his 8-foot bronze statue outside Crypto.com Arena. Grant plays the best audio clips from the Star Plaza ceremony, reacting to Riley's moving speech about adversity, the iconic Giorgio Armani suit immortalized in bronze, and the unforgettable moments shared on stage with Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Today, Ivelisse talks with Dr. Dan Rubin, a naturopathic oncologist and co-founder of Naturopathic Specialists in Scottsdale, Arizona, about an emerging cancer treatment called dendritic cell therapy.Dr. Rubin explains in simple terms how dendritic cells act like “generals” of the immune system—gathering information about a tumor and teaching the body's T cells how to recognize and attack cancer. He discusses Immunocine's “double-loaded” dendritic cell therapy, which uses information from a patient's own tumor to help train the immune system in a more personalized way. This treatment is currently offered in Cancun and is also being studied in U.S. clinical trials for certain cancers, including glioblastoma and pancreatic cancer.They walk through what the process looks like for patients—from application and medical record review, to traveling for tumor sampling, collecting immune cells, and receiving a series of injections. Dr. Rubin also shares how tumor tissue can be stored for possible future use and talks honestly about outcomes, cost, and the importance of ongoing testing to determine who may benefit most.This episode provides hope-filled, easy-to-understand insight into a personalized, immune-based approach to cancer care for patients and caregivers alike.Learn more about Dr. Dan Rubin. Suggested Resources:Naturopathic Specialists in Scottsdale, AZAiresTech Products for EMF protectionHAVN by Lambs - EMF defracting productsImmunocine (Cancun)Immunocine Preserve (Biobank in Scottsdale)Send us Fan Mail!

Guest Speaker Rev Dr Leona Stucky-Abbot's service delivered on February 22, 2026. Infants begin to develop their brains in the context of a mothering matrix, which involves the important relationships of their early years. Internalized relational patterns gradually establish expectations and structures for how babies think. Their novice experiences also distort who mother is and why she exists. These distortions mirror the ways humans construct their relationships with the Divine.

In this episode, former Mormon apologist Michael Flournoy shares how debating Christians and studying Scripture to defend Mormonism unexpectedly led him to the doctrine of grace—until he realized Jesus' righteousness is a gift, not something you earn. His journey exposes the “impossible gospel” of performance and points to the sufficiency of Christ alone.--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

Michael Flournoy explains it with a smile: it's not someone who's good at apologizing. It comes from the Greek word apologia—a defense. In other words, an apologist is someone who argues their case and tries to prove they're right.And for years, that was Michael.He wasn't employed by the LDS Church, but he took the job personally. As a Mormon missionary, Michael ran into evangelical Christians who used the Bible to challenge Mormon beliefs. Instead of backing down, he doubled down. He became a student of Scripture—not to surrender to it, but to “undermine” Christian arguments. He debated Christians online and in person, wrote a book titled A Biblical Defense of Mormonism, and tried to persuade Christians that Mormons were truly Christians… just with “more truth.”But the story doesn't stay there.When the Bible Didn't CooperateMichael describes an early turning point on his mission. A Christian man confronted him with questions about God's nature, authority, and salvation. The conversation became combative and intense, lasting hours. Meanwhile, Michael's missionary companion tried (and failed) to locate a key proof-text Michael assumed was in the Bible—something to support the Mormon idea that humans can become gods.As the Christian man quoted passage after passage from memory, Michael felt stunned. His assumption was simple: “The Bible is supposed to be on our side.” But suddenly, it felt like Scripture was testifying against him.That moment didn't immediately make Michael a Christian—but it did awaken something: a hunger for certainty. Mormonism often leaves people with shifting ground—“maybe the prophet was speaking as a man,” or “maybe that revelation was partly human.” Michael didn't want “maybe” anymore. He wanted truth that wouldn't move. So he committed to reading the Bible and believing what it said.Ironically, he came out of that study more convinced Mormonism was true—at least for a while. He was using the Bible, but he admits he didn't yet understand how to interpret it faithfully. He collected scattered verses, stretched meanings, and attempted what he later calls “mental gymnastics.” If Christians had to accept the Bible, he figured, he could use it as “checkmate” to prove Mormonism.So he finished his mission, got married, and even dropped out of college to write his book....

There is quite a bit of confusion when it comes to the Book of Revelation, often due to the different ways people go about studying and interpreting it. Thankfully, many of our major differences from Book of Revelation dissipate when we get on the same page about Bible interpretation. Ultimately, this is a book about […]

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 29 Episode 22In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into the formation of the universe's most enigmatic objects, explore the origins of Saturn's iconic rings, and get updates on NASA's Artemis 2 mission.Black Holes and Exotic Cosmic StructuresA groundbreaking study suggests that some of the universe's most exotic entities, including black holes and cannibal stars, may have formed just seconds after the Big Bang. Researchers from the International School of Advanced Studies propose that subatomic particles condensed into halos of matter, which then collapsed to create these fascinating cosmic structures. Their findings, published in Physical Review D, indicate that even in the earliest moments of the universe, complex physical phenomena were already taking shape, paving the way for our understanding of cosmic evolution.The Formation of Saturn's RingsNew research proposes that Saturn's largest moon, Titan, may have formed from the collision of two older moons, potentially linking this event to the creation of Saturn's spectacular ring system. The study, reported in the Planetary Science Journal, utilizes computer simulations to explore the dynamics of Saturn's moons and their interactions, suggesting that Titan's merger could explain its unique orbit and the age of the rings, estimated to be around 100 million years.NASA's Artemis 2 Mission UpdateFollowing the recent scrubbing of the Artemis 2 launch due to hydrogen leaks, NASA has made significant repairs and is preparing for another attempt. Engineers have replaced seals in the mobile launcher's umbilical area and are conducting further testing to ensure the rocket's readiness. With multiple launch windows available in March, the Artemis 2 mission aims to test key systems aboard the Orion spacecraft, setting the stage for future lunar exploration and the eventual return of humans to the Moon.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesPhysical Review D, Planetary Science JournalBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-with-stuart-gary--2458531/support.

Unveiling the Hidden Dangers of Oxalate Overload with Sally Norton, a Master in Public Health, Ivy League Nutritionist, and author of “Toxic Superfoods: How Oxalate Overload Is Making You Sick and How to Get Better.” The discussion delves into the often misunderstood and overlooked issues related to dietary oxalates, commonly found in plant-based diets. Norton shares her personal health journey, which led to her research on dietary oxalate and its impact on various health conditions beyond kidney stones, including arthritis, fatigue, and neurodegenerative diseases. She explores how common foods like spinach, sweet potatoes, and dark chocolate can contribute to oxalate toxicity, and discusses the potential systemic effects and symptoms such as neurotoxicity and gastrointestinal issues. The conversation also covers the challenges in diagnosing oxalate overload, the inaccuracies in existing oxalate food tables, and practical steps for mitigating its harmful effects through diet and supplementation. Listen in to understand how to balance the benefits of plant-based nutrients with the risks of oxalate overload.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we dive into groundbreaking research revealing the true composition of the Earth's core, explore new insights into solar neutrinos, and uncover the complexities of Martian volcanoes.Earth's Core Contains Vast Hydrogen ReservoirA recent study published in Nature Communications indicates that Earth's core may hold up to 45 oceans' worth of hydrogen, challenging the long-held belief that water on our planet primarily came from asteroids and comets. Utilizing advanced laboratory techniques, researchers simulated the extreme conditions of the core to uncover its surprising hydrogen content, suggesting a significant internal source of water far beyond previous estimates.Neutrinos from the Sun's CoreA new dark matter experiment has successfully detected neutrinos originating from the Sun's core, marking a significant milestone in our understanding of these elusive particles. The LZ experiment at the Sanford Underground Research Facility captured signals from Brian 8 solar neutrinos, providing valuable data on solar processes and setting new limits for dark matter research. This breakthrough highlights the potential of neutrino studies in unraveling the mysteries of both dark matter and stellar dynamics.Complexity of Martian VolcanoesNew findings published in Geology reveal that young Martian volcanoes are far more complex than previously thought. Researchers have discovered that these volcanoes were shaped by long-lasting and evolving magma systems rather than single eruptions. By analyzing surface features and mineral compositions from orbit, scientists have reconstructed the intricate eruptive history of these volcanic systems, shedding light on the Red Planet's geological past.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature Communications, GeologyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-with-stuart-gary--2458531/support.(00:00:00) New study reveals Earth's core may contain vast amounts of hydrogen(00:08:30) Breakthrough in solar neutrino detection from the Sun's core(00:16:45) Insights into the complex eruptive history of Martian volcanoes(00:25:00) Science report: The link between caffeine consumption and reduced dementia risk(00:32:15) Study on the frequency of passionate love experiences in humans
