 For some people living in the city means a private house and private space to grow plants and flowers of choice, but for many, especially those who live in flats on a budget and rented accommodation, access to a garden can be a real issue. East London based community gardener and nature educator, Hafsah Hafeji talks about her experience of growing in urban spaces, campaigning for access to nature for all, and encouraging young people, especially teenagers, to get outside and get involved.

Picture this: Trump fixes D.C. Crime drops. Streets are clean. Homeless encampments vanish. Businesses return. Suddenly, the city that's been the Left's “can't be fixed” example is… fixed. That's not just a win. That's a demolition of decades of Democrat political branding.Urban decay is the Left's ATM. They point to problems they never solve, demand more tax dollars, and use the chaos as an excuse for more control. If Trump takes that away, they lose their campaign script.Now imagine him rolling out “The D.C. Model” nationwide—Chicago, Baltimore, St. Louis, Oakland. It's not far-fetched. He's already got the illegal immigration crisis handled, and homelessness is on his radar. Once he's got stats and before/after visuals, the ads write themselves.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Fluent Fiction - Mandarin Chinese: Jasmine Tea and Urban Dreamscapes: A Serendipitous Encounter Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/zh/episode/2025-08-08-22-34-02-zh Story Transcript:Zh: 麦琳推开茶店的玻璃门，温暖的空气和淡淡的茉莉花香扑面而来。En: Mailin pushed open the glass door of the tea shop, and a warm air mixed with a faint jasmine scent greeted her.Zh: 她找到了一处空桌，挨着大窗，透过窗户，她能看到外面高高的摩天大楼，那是浦东的标志。En: She found an empty table by a large window, through which she could see the tall skyscrapers outside, a landmark of Pudong.Zh: 茶店内饰温馨，墙上挂着现代艺术作品，还有几副传统的中国画，仿佛在这个喧嚣的城市中，开辟出一片宁静的绿洲。En: The interior of the tea shop was cozy, with modern art pieces hanging on the walls alongside several traditional Chinese paintings, creating a peaceful oasis amidst the bustling city.Zh: 此时，是盛夏，阳光透过玻璃窗洒在室内，增添了几分慵懒的气氛。En: It was midsummer, and the sunlight streaming through the glass window added a lazy atmosphere to the room.Zh: 不远处，简细心地挑选着架子上的茶叶。En: Not far away, Jian was carefully selecting tea leaves from the shelves.Zh: 突然，他和麦琳同时伸手去拿同一个小盒子，里面装着最后一包茉莉花茶。En: Suddenly, he and Mailin reached for the same small box containing the last pack of jasmine tea.Zh: “哦，抱歉，我不是故意的。”麦琳微笑着说。En: "Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to," Mailin said with a smile.Zh: “没关系，我也没注意到。”简回答，语气平和。En: "It's okay, I didn't notice either," Jian replied, his tone calm.Zh: 两人都对手中的茶盒轻笑。En: The two shared a light laugh over the tea box.Zh: 麦琳小心地询问：“你也喜欢茉莉花茶吗？”En: Mailin cautiously asked, "Do you like jasmine tea too?"Zh: “是的，”简说，“我喜欢它的味道很清新凉爽。”En: "Yes," Jian said, "I like its fresh and cool taste."Zh: 这简单的对话，成了两人深入交流的开始。En: This simple conversation became the start of a deeper exchange.Zh: 简是个建筑师，热衷于设计能够与自然和谐相处的绿色建筑。En: Jian was an architect, passionate about designing green buildings that harmonize with nature.Zh: 他的想法独特而大胆，却常因团队的保守而无法施展。En: His ideas were unique and bold, but they often went undeveloped due to his team's conservatism.Zh: 反观麦琳，她是一名记者，正寻找一个全新的角度来撰写关于上海现代都市文化的文章。En: In contrast, Mailin was a journalist, seeking a fresh angle to write about Shanghai's modern urban culture.Zh: 每次她觉得自己找到了切入点，就发现别人已经写过。这让她感到烦恼不已。En: Every time she thought she had found a breakthrough, she discovered someone else had already covered it, leaving her frustrated.Zh: 随着对话的展开，麦琳突然有了灵感：“或许，我可以写关于上海如何将传统与现代结合的新角度。”En: As the conversation unfolded, Mailin suddenly had an idea: "Perhaps I can write from a new perspective on how Shanghai combines tradition with modernity."Zh: 简被激发了灵感：“正是这点，我的设计方案可以以传统美学为基调，融入现代的科技与材料。”En: Jian was inspired: "Exactly, my design proposals can use traditional aesthetics as a base, integrated with modern technology and materials."Zh: 茶店的店主看见两人开心地讨论着，提议他们参与即将开始的即兴茶品活动。En: The tea shop owner saw the two happily discussing and suggested they join an upcoming impromptu tea tasting event.Zh: 品茶过程中，两人继续交换着对城市与文化的看法。En: During the tasting, they continued exchanging views on the city and culture.Zh: 活动接近尾声时，麦琳已经在心中勾勒出她文章的轮廓，而简也想出了要在下一次会议上提出的设计方案。En: As the event neared its end, Mailin had already outlined her article in her mind, while Jian had figured out a design proposal to present at the next meeting.Zh: 简微笑着对麦琳说：“谢谢你，和你聊天让我更加坚定了自己的想法。”En: Jian smiled at Mailin and said, "Thank you, talking with you has made me more determined about my ideas."Zh: 麦琳也欣慰地说：“没有你的启发，我或许还在困惑中挣扎。”En: Mailin also felt relieved and said, "Without your inspiration, I might still be struggling in confusion."Zh: 就在这家小小的茶店里，通过这场偶然的邂逅，他们都发现了前行的方向。En: In this small tea shop, through this chance encounter, they both found their way forward.Zh: 渐渐，两人走出了茶店，阳光依旧明媚，他们带着新的信心，走向各自的梦想。En: Gradually, they walked out of the tea shop, with the sunshine still bright, carrying new confidence as they headed toward their respective dreams.

John Urban of Brat on the early 1980s Tampa Bay Metal and Hard Rock Scene ////////In this episode, John Urban of Brat and Urban Vault takes us through the early Tampa Bay hard rock and heavy metal scene.Originally from Cleveland, OH, John moved to Tampa Bay in 1981 and shares memories of the many clubs, bars, and venues he frequented and where Brat performed. From Mr. T's Club 19, 49th Street Mining Company, Mark Twain's (later the Tampa Bay Power Club), London Victory Club, Ruby's, The Ritz Theater, Rock-It Club, and more, John talks about the heavy cover band scene of the early 1980s and the emerging hard rock and heavy metal scene featuring bands like Avatar (later Savatage), Argus, and Nasty Savage.He discusses the origins of Brat, becoming the first band signed to Par Records (original home to Savatage and Crimson Glory), recording sessions, and the highs and lows of the band including interpersonal conflicts, a contract offer from Metal Blade Records, and recording at Morrisound Studios, which would become iconic for the Tampa death metal scene and one of Florida's most legendary recording studios. John also recalls his try‑out for Savatage during this period.We also explore John's other projects, such as the short lived Urban Vault, his writing for several local, national, and international zines, and his job as a music reviewer and interviewer for the Tampa Tribune, where he interviewed legends like Gene Simmons, Ronnie James Dio, and Joey Ramone.In addition to music, John, known in the Bigfoot community as “Famous” John Urban, has also published books on Bigfoot.

The relationship between the city and cinema is formidable. The images and sounds of the city found in movies are perhaps the only experience that many people will have of cities they may never visit. Films influence the way we construct images of the world, and accordingly, in many instances, how we operate within it. Cinematic Cairo: Egyptian Urban Modernity from Reel to Real offers a history of Cairo's urban modernity using film as the primary source of exploration, and cinematic space as both an analytical tool and a medium of critique. Cairo has provided rich subject material for Egypt's film industry since the inception of the art form at the end of the nineteenth century. The “reel” city—imagined, perceived, and experienced—provides the spatial domain that mirrors change and allows for an interrogation of the “real” city as it encountered modernity over the course of a century.Bringing together chapters by architects and art and literary historians, this volume explores this parallel and convergent relationship through two sections. The first uses films from the 1930s to the end of the twentieth century to illustrate the development of a modern Cairo and its modern subjects. The second section is focused on tracing the transformation of the cinematic city under conditions of neoliberalism, religious fundamentalism, and gender tensions. The result is a comprehensive narrative of the urban modernity of one of the most important cities in the Arab world and Global South. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Faces of Digital Health, host Tjasa Zajc speaks with Dr. Sabine Kapasi, a physician, UN strategist, and founder of a Enira Consulting focused on bridging policy, tech, and clinical practice.

India's large population, digital payment infrastructure, and widespread smartphone adoption are unique assets in transforming care delivery.

Films influence the way we construct images of the world, and accordingly, in many instances, how we operate within it. Cinematic Cairo: Egyptian Urban Modernity from Reel to Real offers a history of Cairo's urban modernity using film as the primary source of exploration, and cinematic space as both an analytical tool and a medium of critique. Cairo has provided rich subject material for Egypt's film industry since the inception of the art form at the end of the nineteenth century. The “reel” city—imagined, perceived, and experienced—provides the spatial domain that mirrors change and allows for an interrogation of the “real” city as it encountered modernity over the course of a century.Bringing together chapters by architects and art and literary historians, this volume explores this parallel and convergent relationship through two sections. The first uses films from the 1930s to the end of the twentieth century to illustrate the development of a modern Cairo and its modern subjects. The second section is focused on tracing the transformation of the cinematic city under conditions of neoliberalism, religious fundamentalism, and gender tensions. The result is a comprehensive narrative of the urban modernity of one of the most important cities in the Arab world and Global South. Learn more about your ad choices.

Consumerism is impacting all health systems but does this mean the same thing in the same way to academic medical centers, urban hospitals, and rural health systems? Reed Smith and Chris Boyer unpack the growing tension between what patients want and what different types of health systems are built to deliver. From broadband gaps in rural markets to brand-driven loyalty in AMCs, they explore whether “digital transformation” really means the same thing in each context—and what happens when strategy drifts from mission. Later, Chris sits down with Andy Chang, Chief Marketing Officer at UChicago Medicine, who shares how his team is driving consumer-centered digital strategy within the complexity of an academic medical center. It's a candid look at how one system is adapting to a consumer world, without losing sight of what makes it unique.

Conversation is an important part of bringing an end to racism so that everyone thrives in our society. It's something that the leaders of 904Ward care deeply about.  The 904Ward organization evolved the Jacksonville 904 dialing area code into a nonprofit whose mission is to create racial healing and equity through deep conversations and learning, trusting relationships, and collective action.  Dr. Kimberly Allen served as the inaugural CEO of 904WARD from 2020 to 2025.  “I think we all make judgments all the time because that's just the nature of our brains and how it works, but what I would encourage us to do is to call those judgments out and, I say, ‘Say the quiet part out loud.' Call those judgments  out so that you can start to work through where they come from,” Dr. Allen says.  In this conversation, which was first recorded in 2022 for the Health Disparities podcast, Dr. Allen is joined by 904 resident Sharon LaSure-Roy. They spoke with Movement Is Life's Sarah Hohman.

In this sermon, we explore what it looks like to bring feelings of doubt and despair before God.Every human being goes through seasons of doubt. But what do we do in those moments? Psalm 74 describes a time in Israel's history when it seemed God had abandoned his people. Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of his unchanging character.

On this episode of Beyond Multifamily, Amanda Cruise interviews Derek Vickers, a mobile home park investor who went from zero to over 2,000 lots in just five years. Derek shares how he overcame fear and inexperience to scale quickly, the reasons he focuses on urban one- and two-star parks, and why legal non-conforming zoning is a hidden asset. He dives into the operational and financial strategies behind park-owned home conversions, the importance of systems in scaling, and his shift from syndications to fund management. Derek also unpacks the window of opportunity left in the mobile home park space and why now is the time to go big.

“It's so insidious, people don't realize it,” Barbara Kingsolver told me, describing the prejudice against “country people.” Kingsolver is one of those “country people,” as well as a literary legend in her own time, who set out to write the “great Appalachian novel.” And I think she did. “Demon Copperhead” won the Pulitzer Prize in 2023, and we taped this conversation later that year. And I wanted to re-air it because the divide between rural and urban America remains just as strong today, and as relevant to our politics. And Kingsolver might be the country's sharpest and most poignant observer of it.Mentioned:Shiloh and Other Stories by Bobbie Ann MasonBook Recommendations:Landings by Arwen DonahueRaising Lazarus by Beth MacyPod by Laline PaullThoughts?
