Podcasts about Adha

In this episode, we get into Eid al-Adha, comparing how Algeria and the UAE handle the slaughter, the hygiene, the rituals, and how our kids responded to witnessing it all for the first time. We then debate EVs and hybrids in the UK, breaking down the charging infrastructure problems, hidden costs, and the political incentives propping up the "green" agenda. We close on AI and fatherhood, job displacement, deepfakes, the creeping "AI god" narrative, and how to stay a present, grounded father in a world that's moving faster than anyone can keep up with.

27th May 2026In this Satsnag, Sanjay spoke about Eid al-Adha, discussing the concept of sacrifice as surrendering the ego and achieving self-realization through recognizing one's true nature as pure awareness. He explained that when people understand "I am only awareness," they can experience the same bliss and peace in waking life as in deep sleep, describing this as entering a state of Samadhi while remaining active. Lakshmi asked about handling noisy family members and maintaining inner peace, to which Sanjay advised keeping quiet, having compassion, and not trying to change others, suggesting that the desire for more solitude might be a sign of spiritual progress. Sanjay also discussed how egoless awareness affects relationships, explaining that without ego, one becomes insensitive to others' egoistic behavior and simply witnesses whatever happens without trying to fix or change situations.These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia. Om Namo Bhagavate Sri Arunachala Ramanaya !

ADHA has been building its federal presence, and this spring marked a milestone: members on Capitol Hill for the profession's first formal lobby day in 20 years. President Lancette VanGuilder and Advocacy Advisory Committee Chair Alyssa Aberle sit down with Matt Crespin to break down what brought the Advocacy Advisory Committee, ADHA leadership and sponsoring organizations to Washington on April 16, with three specific asks spanning community water fluoridation, Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement for hygienists, and expanded FSA/HSA access for oral care products. They share what the reception was really like, why some offices had never met with a dental hygienist before, and what it felt like to walk through their own state's office doors and make the case for the profession. The follow-ups are already coming in. This is what showing up looks like.Guests: Alyssa Aberle, MBA, RDH, FADHA; Lancette VanGuilder, BS, RDH, PHEDH, CEAS, FADHAHost: Matt Crespin, MPH, RDH, FADHA

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an tríochadú lá de mhí Bealtaine. Is mise Alanna Ní Ghallachóir.Tá tús curtha le triail iar-cheannaire an Pháirtí Aontachtaigh Dhaonlathaigh, Jeffrey Donaldson, agus a mhná céile, i ndiaidh do bheirt bhan líomhaintí a dhéanamh go ndearna sé mí-úsáid ghnéis orthu agus iad ina bpáistí. D'inis abhcóide an ionchúisimh, Rosie Walsh KC, don ghiúire de chúigear ban agus seachtar fear ag Cúirt Chórónach an Iúir, go ndúirt duine de na gearánaigh gur thosaigh an mhí-úsáid agus í fós sa bhunscoil, agus gur leanadh ar aghaidh leis ar feadh roinnt blianta. Dúirt an gearánach eile gur chreid sí gur tharla na teagmhais bainte léi féin thart fán aois chéanna. Agus é i mbun agallamh le póilíní tar éis á ghabhála i Mí an Mhárta 2024, dúirt Donaldson gur rud “dochreidte” a bhí sa chúiseamh éignithe ina aghaidh agus shéan sé na cúisimh a bhí curtha ina leith. Phléadáil iar-cheannaire an DUP neamhchiontach do 18 gcúiseamh agus shéan Bean Donaldson cúig chúiseamh. Deirtear gur tharla na teagmhais idir na blianta 1985 agus 2008Dé Céadaoin, sáraíodh an churiarracht teochta um mí na Bealtaine in Éirinn ag Aerfort na Sionainne, nuair a bhain an mearcair 30.6C amach. Lean sé seo curiarracht eile ní ba luaithe sa lá ag stáisiún aimsire Páirc na Darach, taobh amuigh de bhaile Cheatharlach, inar taifeadadh teocht 29.7C. Agus sa Phortaingéil, taifeadadh an lá is teo i mí na Bealtaine ag 40.3C sa bhaile lárnach Mora, agus tíortha in iarthar na hEorpa ag streachailt leo san aimsir mharfach leáiteach. Sna tríocha bliain a chuaigh thart, tá ardú teochta 0.56C tagtha ar an Eoraip achan deich mbliana, de réir na Seirbhíse Aeráide Copernicus - neart leis na teochtaí as cuimse a dhéanamh níos coitianta. Déardaoin, dúirt na Náisiúin Aontaithe go bhfuil seans maith ann go ndéanfaidh na meánteochtaí domhanda na hardteochtaí as cuimse níos géire. Tháinig clú agus cáil ar bhuabhall ailbíneach neamhchoitianta a bhfuil gruaig fhada fhionn air sa Bhangladéis, agus an fhéile Eid al-Adha ag bualadh linn, agus é ag tarraingt na sluaite cuairteoirí fiosracha a deir go bhfuil an-chosúlacht idir an t-ainmhí agus Uachtarán Stáit Aontaithe Mheiriceá, Donald Trump. Tógadh an buabhall, a bhfuil beagnach 700kg meáchain ann, ar fheirm i gceantar in aice leis an phríomhchathair, Dhaka, agus tugadh an leasainm Donald Trump air mar gheall ar an dos gruaige bán thar a bhaitheas. Is Moslamaigh iad formhór na mBangladéiseach, náisiún san Áise Theas a bhfuil 170 milliún duine ann, a bhí ag céiliúradh Eid al-Adha, féile na híobairte le linn na seachtaine. Bhí sléacht le déanamh ar an bhuabhall leis an fhéile a chomóradh ach, sna huaireanta sular cuireadh é chun báis, ghníomhaigh an rialtas leis an t-ainmhí a shabháil. Dúirt coiméadaí an Zú Náisiúnta um Bangladéis, Atiqur Rahman, go dtabharfaí cúram maith don ainmhí, agus bóthán áirithe tugtha don bhuabhall in éineacht le cúramóir, agus go mbeidh sé ar coraintín le haghaidh coicíse. *Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Arrancamos nuestro recorrido repasando los últimos enfrentamientos entre Irán y Estados Unidos en el estrecho de Ormuz lcuando se cumplen tres meses del inicio de los ataques. Miramos a Sudán, donde la guerra entre el Ejército y las fuerzas paramilitares se extiende a nuevas regiones del país. Y ponemos el foco en las olas de calor que marcan récords de temperatura en Europa y el sur de Asia. La imagen de la semana se fija en los bombardeos israelíes en Gaza durante la celebración del Eid al-Adha. Y también hacemos paradas en República Democrática del Congo, Estados Unidos, México, la Unión Europea y Brasil.

This week on The South Florida Roundup, we sit down with Florida State Senator Shevrin Jones, who recently announced his intention to not seek reelection( 0:11). Jones is considered a potential candidate for Rep. Frederica Wilson's congressional seat in District 24, who also just announced she would be stepping down after this election. We also talk hurricane season with WLRN's environmental reporter Jenny Staletovich and Ben Kirtman, the dean of the Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric and Earth Science at the University of Miami (18:22). Then, we're joined by Imam Dr. Tarek Chebbi, to learn more about the Islamic holiday, Eid al-Adha (34:13).

The Giants can move past the Jaxson Dart controversy quickly if the locker room keeps frustrations internal, but the cost is proving this young team can handle pressure without letting every disagreement become a public problem.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.Did the Giants actually move past the Jaxson Dart locker-room issue? The answer depends on whether the leaders who spoke up — Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux, and Jameis Winston — turn that meeting into a reset instead of another storyline.The episode starts with the reported Giants meeting where Jaxson Dart addressed teammates after introducing President Trump. Drew and Rob talk through whether this was just an awkward headline that needed to be handled internally, or whether it was the first real leadership test for Dart and the John Harbaugh-era locker room. The conversation also covers Abdul Carter missing the meeting for Eid al-Adha and why that should not become cheap blame if Dart and Carter already handled things privately.Is this story actually over, or just quieter?Andrew Thomas restructuring his contract becomes the next major Giants topic. The guys explain why the added cap space matters, why Arvell Reese's rookie deal still affects the real number, and why this move is more likely about injury flexibility and cutdown-day roster moves than a splashy Odell Beckham Jr. return.Did the Giants just create useful breathing room, or are fans reading too much into a basic cap move?The OTA conversation focuses on D.J. Reader, Dru Phillips, and Patrick Ricard returning to the field, while also keeping expectations realistic because spring practices without pads only reveal so much. The defensive line depth concern gets real after the Roy Robertson-Harris injury, Shelby Harris' absence, and the basic truth that NFL injuries are going to keep coming.J.C. Davis becomes the offensive line debate of the episode. Bret Bielema praised his ability to play all four guard and tackle spots, while Drew pushes back and says the tape looks more like guard. John Harbaugh's comments also point to a swing guard/tackle role, raising the question of whether Davis is a future left guard, a real utility lineman, or another Giants guard/tackle project that could become risky behind Andrew Thomas.The episode closes with one of the better Giants stories of the offseason: Tom Coughlin, Eli Manning, John Harbaugh, Shaun O'Hara, and Gotham FC going full Mario Kart for the Tom Coughlin Jay Fund Foundation. Coughlin as Mario, Eli as Luigi, Harbaugh as Yoshi, and Shaun O'Hara as Donkey Kong made for a fun visual, but the real story is the charity work for families facing childhood cancer.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballsAll episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Iran's Foreign Ministry has condemned the "flagrant and unjustified" ceasefire violations by the United States in the Strait of Hormuz, noting that these took place despite ongoing diplomatic efforts mediated by Pakistan.伊朗外交部抨击美国在霍尔木兹海峡“明目张胆”违反停火，强调此举发生在巴基斯坦积极调停之际，是对外交努力的公然挑衅。In the latest developments, an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps official said a renewed war with the US is unlikely, but warned that Tehran stands ready to repel any attack, Al Jazeera reported.据半岛电视台报道，最新进展中，一名伊斯兰革命卫队官员表示，与美国再次开战的可能性不大，但警告称，德黑兰已准备好击退任何攻击。"The possibility of war is low because of the enemy's weakness, but the armed forces are lying in wait," said Mohammad Akbarzadeh, a commander of the IRGC Navy.伊斯兰革命卫队海军指挥官穆罕默德·阿克巴尔扎德说：“由于敌人的弱点，战争的可能性很低，但武装部队正在严阵以待。”In a statement issued on Tuesday, reported by Mehr News Agency, the foreign ministry slammed the US Army for continuing its "illegal and unjustifiable actions" since the announcement of the ceasefire on April 8.据梅尔通讯社报道，伊朗外交部在周二发布的一份声明中痛斥美国军队自4月8日宣布停火以来仍旧继续采取“非法且不合理的行动”。The ministry said the US had committed "a flagrant violation of the ceasefire in the Hormozgan region over the past 48 hours", particularly following "multiple instances of maritime piracy against Iranian commercial vessels".外交部表示，美国“在过去48小时内公然违反霍尔木兹甘地区的停火协议”，尤其是在“多次对伊朗商船实施海上海盗行为”之后。The US has said its attacks were defensive in nature, targeting missile sites and boats attempting to lay mines.美国表示，其攻击本质上是防御性的，目标是导弹发射场和试图布设水雷的船只。In his call with Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and other regional leaders, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian reaffirmed Tehran's readiness to establish a "dignified framework" aimed at ending the ongoing fighting and regional tensions.伊朗总统马苏德·佩泽希齐扬在与卡塔尔埃米尔谢赫塔米姆·本·哈马德·阿勒萨尼等地区领导人通话中重申，德黑兰愿打造一个“有尊严的框架”，从而结束当前冲突，缓解地区紧张局势。Pezeshkian spoke with heads of state from several mostly Muslim-majority countries on the occasion of Eid al-Adha.借宰牲节之机，佩泽希齐扬与多国穆斯林领导人进行了电话沟通。He and his Egyptian counterpart, Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, exchanged greetings on Tuesday. They also underscored the necessity of Islamic unity and indicated a new chapter in regional relations.5月26日，伊朗总统佩泽希齐扬与埃及总统塞西互致问候。双方强调伊斯兰团结的必要性，此举预示地区关系将开启新篇章。Pezeshkian emphasized the need to strengthen cooperation across the Islamic world and expand bilateral relations between Tehran and Kuala Lumpur in his phone call with Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.在与马来西亚总理安瓦尔·易卜拉欣的通话中，佩泽希齐扬强调，有必要加强整个伊斯兰世界的合作，并扩大德黑兰与吉隆坡之间的双边关系。Meanwhile in the US, President Donald Trump was expected to meet with his Cabinet on Wednesday at a precarious moment for talks aimed at ending the conflict with Iran.与此同时，美国总统特朗普预计将于5月27日与内阁会面，此时正值结束伊朗冲突的谈判进入微妙关头。He took to social media on Tuesday to grumble that even if Tehran were to offer a complete surrender, the media would paint the end of the conflict as Iran scoring "a masterful and brilliant victory".他5月26日在社交媒体上抱怨称，即使德黑兰完全投降，媒体也会把冲突的结束描绘成伊朗取得了“一场巧妙而辉煌的胜利”。US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said negotiations between the US and Iran on extending the ceasefire and reopening the Strait of Hormuz will take "a few more days".美国国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥表示，美国与伊朗关于延长停火和重新开放霍尔木兹海峡的谈判将“还需要几天”。According to Iranian sources, an initial deal would end hostilities on all fronts, get traffic moving through the strait within 30 days, and possibly provide some financial relief.据伊朗消息，初步协议将全面结束敌对行动，30天内恢复海峡通航，并可能提供一定经济援助。More difficult issues such as Iran's nuclear program would be negotiated in the second phase. Iran has been allowing some ships through the strait, giving preference to vessels linked to countries with which it has close ties, Reuters has reported.据路透社报道，伊朗核计划等更为棘手的问题将在第二阶段进行谈判。与此同时，伊朗已允许部分船只通行霍尔木兹海峡，并优先放行那些与其关系密切国家的船只。The conflict, which began on Feb 28, has caused an unprecedented oil supply shock, pushing up the costs of fuel, fertilizer and food. Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, which normally carries about a fifth of global trade in oil and liquefied natural gas, has been a fraction of its usual level since the fighting began.这场始于2月28日的冲突引发了前所未有的石油供应冲击，推高了燃料、化肥及食品价格。霍尔木兹海峡平时承载全球约五分之一的石油与液化天然气贸易，但开战以来，通航量仅剩正常水平的一小部分。The IRGC Navy said in a statement on Tuesday that as many as 25 other ships and oil tankers have been able to transit through the strait in coordination with the IRGC naval forces, Iranian media reported.据伊朗媒体报道，伊斯兰革命卫队海军5月26日在一份声明中称，在与革命卫队海军的协调下，已有多达25艘其他船只和油轮通过海峡。Also on Tuesday, the United Nations Security Council condemned what it said was an "egregious drone attack" that targeted an electricity generator outside the inner perimeter of the Barakah nuclear power plant in the United Arab Emirates on May 17.5月26日，联合国安理会也对5月17日阿联酋巴拉卡核电站内围外一台发电机遭到的“严重无人机袭击”表示谴责。Strait of Hormuz /streɪt əv hɔːˈmuːz/霍尔木兹海峡mediated by /ˈmiːdieɪtɪd baɪ/由……调停Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) /ɪzˈlæmɪk ˌrevəˈluːʃənəri ɡɑːd kɔː/伊斯兰革命卫队lie in wait /laɪ ɪn weɪt/埋伏，严阵以待lay mines /leɪ maɪnz/布设水雷Eid al-Adha /iːd æl ˈɑːdə/宰牲节underscore /ˌʌndəˈskɔː/强调precarious /prɪˈkeəriəs/不稳定的，微妙的grumble /ˈɡrʌmbəl/抱怨，发牢骚Barakah nuclear power plant /bəˈrɑːkə ˈnjuːkliə ˈpaʊə plɑːnt/巴拉卡核电站

Eid ul Adha : une célébration de foi, de sacrifice et de solidarité au cœur du message du prophète Ibrahim by TOPFM MAURITIUS

Mercoledì mattina, a Gaza City, i fedeli si sono radunati per la preghiera dell'Eid al-Adha tra le macerie di Rimal. La sera prima due attacchi aerei israeliani avevano colpito due edifici residenziali nella stessa zona, il distretto commerciale più affollato della città alla vigilia della festa. L'ospedale al-Shifa ha confermato tre morti, fra cui una donna, e dodici feriti. Il ministro della Difesa Israel Katz ha rivendicato l'operazione: l'obiettivo era Mohammed Odeh, nominato comandante militare di Hamas undici giorni prima, dopo l'uccisione di Izz al-Din al-Haddad il 15 maggio. Quarto comandante eliminato a Gaza dal 7 ottobre 2023. «Sono morti che camminano ovunque si trovino», scrive Katz. Hamas conferma che Odeh è morto con la moglie e i figli. Nello stesso comunicato Katz aggiunge: «Anche il piano di emigrazione volontaria da Gaza sarà attuato, tutto al momento giusto e nel modo giusto». Il piano è del febbraio 2025, ordinato dallo stesso Katz dopo la proposta di Trump di trasferire fuori dalla Striscia i due milioni di abitanti. La Corte penale internazionale e l'OHCHR di Türk lo riconducono al trasferimento forzato vietato dalla IV Convenzione di Ginevra. Mercoledì il Financial Times pubblica la radiografia del Board of Peace di Trump. A quattro mesi dall'istituzione, il fondo presso la Banca Mondiale non ha ricevuto un dollaro: zero dei diciassette miliardi promessi. Le poche somme arrivate sono transitate su un conto privato JPMorgan, fuori dai requisiti di trasparenza. Nessun contratto di ricostruzione assegnato. Ieri sera sette italiani del Land Convoy Sumud sono stati sgomberati a Sirte e rientrano oggi; a Bengasi restano detenuti dieci attivisti, fra cui Domenico Centrone e Leonarda Alberizia. «Tutto al momento giusto e nel modo giusto», ripete Katz. L'unico piano per Gaza al momento giusto è quello dell'emigrazione. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

À l'occasion de l'Aïd al-Adha, le prix du mouton est devenu un sujet de pouvoir d'achat dans de nombreux pays. Du Maroc à l'Algérie, en passant par la Tunisie, le Sénégal ou la France, partout, les prix ont beaucoup augmenté ces dernières années. Explications.

Unionised workers at Samsung Electronics in South Korea approve a landmark profit-sharing deal, putting them in line for bonuses averaging $400,000. The agreement with the world's largest memory chipmaker avoids a strike that had threatened the global supply chain. Workers had demanded a bigger slice of the tech giant's surging profits amid the AI boom.Also: Israel says it has killed the new head of Hamas' military wing, just days after targeting his predecessor. In the US, Maga Republicans show their dominance of the party, after Ken Paxton beats John Cornyn in the Texas Senate primary. Spanish police raid the headquarters of the governing Socialist Party in a corruption probe. People in Iran have been able to go online to speak to family and friends outside the country, some for the first time in three months. Bolivia's Congress grants President Rodrigo Paz emergency powers to deploy troops amid widespread protests. Ghana begins repatriating around 800 of its citizens from South Africa amid hostility towards migrant workers. High cost of living and soaring sheep prices mean many cannot afford to take part in the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha.

In today's edition of The Update Journal, the Knicks are one win away from the Finals, Cleveland is still launching three-pointers like they're trying to pay rent with them, and apparently New York City lost its outside-watch-party privileges because a few people forgot how to behave near Knicks games. We ask the important questions: Why are the Cavs treating every possession like a heat-check? Why does success in New York immediately turn into a crowd-control situation? And who looked at the calendar and decided Memorial Day weekend should roll directly into Eid al-Adha like this was some kind of holiday back-to-back challenge mode?Also included:A completely unbiased* breakdown of the Knicks-Cavs series from someone who “doesn't even watch basketball like that,” yet somehow has very strong opinions.A public safety reminder that New Yorkers cannot be trusted with nice things once playoff basketball enters the group chat.And a deep investigation into why this week feels like it was scheduled by the same people who plan MTA weekend service changes.(*Bias may exist. Especially against unnecessary three-point attempts.)In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Tuesday, a tree fell on a woman and partially crushed multiple cars in the Bronx on Memorial Day, cops said. Meanwhile, a wet and not-so-wild Memorial Day capped a washout holiday weekend for the Big Apple, leaving Rockaway Beach empty during the unofficial start of summer except for diehard locals and frustrated business owners.A killer executed a man as he washed clothes with his wife at a Brooklyn laundromat Monday morning, cops and sources said. The brazen gunman also accidentally shot a 68-year-old bystander in the foot in the process, they said.And out in the American west in California, a crack has relieved some pressure in a damaged chemical tank and the temperature of the highly flammable gas inside is continuing to fall, leading authorities to say they believe the risk of a catastrophic explosion has been eliminated.

May 27th 202610th Dhul Hijjah 1447 Eid Al-Adha 1447/2026Eid al-Adha symbolizes global Muslim unity through shared worship, Hajj, and collective celebration across continents.The khutbah emphasizes unity through the Ka‘bah, congregational prayer, and the Prophet's message in Mina about equality and sanctity of life, wealth, and honour.Political and economic interests have weakened the Islamic values of unity, trust, and respect for agreements.Qur'anic verses from Surah al-Nahl stress the obligation to fulfill promises and condemn betrayal and deceit.The example of Sulh Hudaybiyyah highlights that agreements must be respected even with non-Muslims to preserve social order.The sermon criticizes injustices faced by Pakistani Shi‘as deported from the UAE despite lacking political involvement.Bahrain's arrests, citizenship revocations, and deportations of Shi‘as are presented as violations of human rights and international law.A positive development mentioned is the growing cooperation among Shi‘a scholars in Ontario through the planned “Council of Shia Scholars of Ontario.”Eid prayers and Qur'anic verses from Surah al-A‘la and Surah al-Shams emphasize purification of the soul and sincerity of intention.The lesson of qurbani is that Allah values taqwa and sincerity, not merely the outward sacrifice.The story of Habil and Qabil demonstrates that deeds are accepted only from those with true God-consciousness.The khutbah repeatedly connects spiritual purification with unity, justice, and ethical conduct in society.Duas and salawat upon the Prophet and Ahlul Bayt reinforce devotion, guidance, and steadfastness upon the path of Islam.The sermon concludes with the Qur'anic command to uphold justice, kindness, and care for relatives while avoiding oppression and corruption.Surahs al-A‘la and al-Shams reinforce themes of purification, remembrance of Allah, moral responsibility, and success through taqwa.Donate towards our programs today: https://jaffari.org/donate/Jaffari Community Centre (JCC Live)

We make takbeer. We remember submission to Allah سبحانه وتعالى. But Ibrahim عليه السلام did not leave behind rituals alone. He left behind a legacy of leadership, sacrifice, and obedience to Allah سبحانه وتعالى in every aspect of life.The Prophets after him did not only teach people how to worship privately. They governed by revelation. They carried justice to society. They ruled by what Allah سبحانه وتعالى revealed.From Dawud عليه السلام to Muhammad ﷺ, Islam was never separated from authority, leadership, and the responsibility of caring for the affairs of humanity. And the Prophet ﷺ did not leave this Ummah as an Ummah of scattered individuals. He established a state in Madinah that carried Islam to the world as mercy, justice, and guidance.But today, more than 100 years after the destruction of the Khilafah, look at the condition of the Ummah. Gaza burns. Al-Aqsa remains occupied. Sudan bleeds. And humanity itself suffers under systems built upon greed, oppression, and power.This Eid is not only a celebration. It is a reminder of responsibility. A reminder that this Ummah was meant to lead. Meant to carry Islam completely. Meant to revive the deen in society, governance, and life.The rituals of Hajj teach us unity. The sacrifice of Ibrahim عليه السلام teaches us submission. The takbeer reminds us that Allah سبحانه وتعالى is greater than every tyrant, every empire, and every false system that dominates the earth today.So let Eid not end with celebration alone. Reconnect yourself to the mission of this Ummah. Reconnect yourself to the Quran. Reconnect yourself to the work of dawah and revival. Reconnect yourself to the obligation of working for the return of Islam as a complete way of life.May Allah سبحانه وتعالى accept our sacrifices. May He unite this Ummah once again. May He allow us to witness the return of dignity, justice, and the banner of Islam raised once more.Eid Mubarak to the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ

On the eve of Eid ul-Adha, host Saadia Khan reflects on the San Diego mosque shooting that killed three men during prayer — and the Instagram comment calling Islam a "bloody demonic cult" that followed. In this raw narration episode, Saadia connects the dots between normalized anti-Muslim rhetoric, political silence, and the violence it enables. From her daughter being called "queen of Taliban" in sixth grade to being interrogated in an ER while in pain, she shares what it actually costs to be Muslim in America — and why, despite all of it, Muslims will still show up for Eid tomorrow.

La Tabaski a lieu mercredi 27 mai au Maroc. L'Aïd el-Kébir, comme on l'appelle au Maghreb, aura une saveur particulière cette année dans le royaume. En 2025, il n'y avait pas eu de sacrifices de moutons. Le roi Mohammed VI avait appelé les Marocains à ne pas l'accomplir pour préserver le budget déjà serré des ménages, dans un contexte de sécheresse et de diminution du cheptel. Les Marocains ont donc repris le chemin des marchés aux moutons. De notre correspondant à Casablanca, À l'ombre du minaret de la mosquée Hassan II, qui culmine à 200 mètres de haut, un marché est installé en plein cœur de Casablanca. Amine et Ilham, frères et sœurs, viennent d'arriver. Ils ont le sourire pour l'instant : « J'ai trois enfants. L'année dernière, on ne l'a pas célébré. Là, les pauvres voient les gens en train d'acheter des moutons et nous, on en n'achèterait pas ? C'est pas possible. On va le faire même si on va devoir faire des sacrifices, même s'il le faut que je vende un objet de valeur. » Ils sont venus acheter trois moutons, avec un budget plutôt conséquent. Ils sont prêts à débourser jusqu'à 500 euros par bête. Après un petit tour du marché, c'est la déception pour Ilham : « Les prix sont excessifs. On ne peut rien acheter ici. Ça oscille entre 650 et 700 euros, c'est beaucoup. Comme il n'y a pas eu de sacrifice l'année dernière, on s'attendait à ce que ça soit moins cher cette année. Et en fait, les prix ont doublé ! Dans ce cas-là, on ne pourra pas acheter. C'est abusé, je ne vais pas acheter 650 euros un mouton qui coûte normalement 300 à 400 euros. » Le gouvernement du Maroc promettait pourtant des tarifs accessibles cette année grâce à la reconstitution du cheptel – neuf millions de têtes d'ovins et de caprins disponibles pour l'Aïd –, mais la polémique enfle, car les prix ont explosé. À lire aussiAïd el-Kebir, Aïd al-Adha ou Tabaski: une des fêtes les plus importantes de l'islam Des coûts importants pour les éleveurs  Il y a une semaine, à la Chambre des représentants, un débat sur le prix du mouton a même donné lieu à une passe d'armes entre parlementaires. Le gouvernement a finalement annoncé, quelques jours avant la fête, des mesures « exceptionnelles et temporaires » pour mieux encadrer les marchés et lutter contre la spéculation. Amine, le frère d'Ilham n'est pas vraiment convaincu : « Je ne sais pas pourquoi c'est aussi cher. Il y a eu des subventions. L'année dernière, on n'a pas sacrifié pour avoir plus d'offres en 2026. On a eu un hiver pluvieux, alors qu'avant, ils justifiaient la hausse des prix par la sécheresse. » Tahar est un revendeur de moutons. Il achète les bêtes et les engraisse pendant quelques mois juste avant l'Aïd : « L'agriculteur a des coûts plus importants désormais. Avant, il avait tout à sa disposition chez lui. Il ne dépensait rien pour ses bêtes. Il pouvait te vendre un mouton à 300 euros tout en gagnant de l'argent ! Mais actuellement, et surtout avec la succession des années de sécheresse, il a beaucoup de choses à acheter. Même si cette année a été plus clémente, il n'en profite pas encore. » Les agriculteurs ont dû se tourner vers l'achat d'aliments pour bétail. Beaucoup de Marocains repartent du marché les mains vides ce jour-là. La pression sociale reste forte, mais ils sont de plus en plus nombreux à renoncer au sacrifice et à revendiquer ce choix.

El Hajj es el último y más importante pilar del Islam. Es una obligación que todo musulmán con recursos económicos debe cumplir una sola vez en la vida, y es el acto de adoración más importante y crucial que un creyente puede realizar. Sin embargo, el viaje va mucho más allá de los rituales físicos: es una peregrinación espiritual profundamente personal que purifica el alma, ayuda a los peregrinos a desapegarse del mundo material y les enseña valiosas lecciones sobre la fe, la devoción y lo divino.El Hajj pone a prueba la resistencia y la fortaleza interior. Imagínese cómo los peregrinos deben soportar cinco largos días de esfuerzo físico, realizando cada ritual en medio de una multitud. Es un viaje agotador que exige mucha resistencia, pero logran mantenerse concentrados y serenos mientras oran a Alá pidiendo fuerza y ​​recompensa.Cada ritual y cada oración ofrecida con un corazón firme nos recuerda la importancia de mantenernos siempre firmes en nuestra fe, tener paciencia para recibir las bendiciones de Alá y perseverar ante las dificultades de este mundo. Este viaje nos recuerda que, así como Alá recompensa a quienes perseveran en el Hajj, también recompensa a quienes mantienen la paciencia ante los desafíos de la vida cotidiana.Cada uno de los rituales que se realizan durante el Hajj está inseparablemente ligado a la historia del profeta Ibrahim, su esposa Hajar y sus descendientes, cuya fe y devoción inquebrantables constituyen la base de la religión islámica. Actos como la lapidación simbólica de las Jamarat conmemoran el rechazo del profeta Ibrahim a la tentación satánica, mientras que el sacrificio de un animal honra su disposición a ofrecer incluso a su amado hijo en obediencia al mandato de Allah.La importancia histórica del Hajj intensifica el vínculo que sus creyentes, herederos de esta herencia religiosa, mantienen con las pruebas y tribulaciones de los primeros profetas. Es un recordatorio de que la sumisión de estos profetas allanó el camino hacia el profundo viaje espiritual que ahora emprende el peregrino, un viaje que, en realidad, es solo la última parada en una peregrinación que se remonta a los orígenes mismos de la humanidad.Los diez días previos al Eid al-Adha son los más sagrados. En Bukhari, el Profeta (la paz y las bendiciones de Alá sean con él) dijo: «No hay días en los que las buenas obras sean más amadas por Alá que estos diez primeros días de Zulhijjah». Para quienes realizan el Hajj, esta es una oportunidad única e incomparable para obtener recompensas divinas. Actos como el zikr (el recuerdo de Alá) mediante frases como «Subhanallah» y «Allahu Akbar» son inmensamente gratificantes.Todos sabemos que la caridad es una de las mejores acciones que podemos realizar, pero durante este tiempo, el Corán nos enseña que cada acto de generosidad se multiplica. Si bien la caridad siempre es importante durante estos 10 días, cada acto de generosidad se multiplica, como enfatiza el Corán. Este tiempo sagrado está lleno de misericordia, lo que lo convierte en el momento perfecto para dedicarnos a la adoración, que nos acerca a Alá y nos permite obtener Su misericordia.Un viaje de fe, unidad y transformaciónEn esencia, el Hajj es más que un deber religioso; es un viaje transformador que trae consigo fe, unidad y reflexión personal. La importancia del Hajj demuestra cómo los peregrinos experimentan un profundo sentido de hermandad, un despertar espiritual y aprenden valiosas lecciones de paciencia, perseverancia y el vínculo que comparten con quienes los precedieron. Enriquece la vida con una sabiduría que trasciende el tiempo y el espacio, dejando recuerdos imborrables y una conexión más fuerte con la fe.#islamenespañol #hajj2026 #psicologíayespiritualidad

What does truly integrated care look like in practice? Host Matt Crespin captured the conversations at ADHA's first-ever Integrated Care Summit in Broomfield, Colorado this past weekend — bringing together physicians, dentists, periodontists, and public health professionals making the case for breaking down silos. (1:56) Dr. Mychi Nguyen, Chief Medical Officer at Asian Health Services, shares how a patient's powerful words — "How can I be healthy if I don't have teeth?" — launched a dental clinic at her FQHC and explains the AHA's Healthy Smiles, Healthy Hearts initiative transforming dental visits into preventive health opportunities. (8:48) AGD President-elect George J. Schmidt reflects on the growing ADHA-AGD collaboration. (15:19) Dr. Elizabeth Ramos of the American Academy of Periodontology makes the case for hygienists as key communicators of the perio-systemic connection. (24:08) Michael Lazzara, VP of International Business Development of Dento, introduces oral health biomarker testing that gives patients real-time data to motivate behavior change. And (35:37) Holly Kingsbury of the Colorado Community Health Network walks through a promising model for integrating behavioral health screenings into dental visits at FQHCs statewide.Guests: Mychi Nguyen, MD; George J.

Le croissant lunaire marquant le dernier mois du calendrier islamique a été observé hier, confirmant ainsi le début du mois sacré de Dhul Hijjah dès aujourd'hui. Cette période, particulièrement significative dans le calendrier musulman, ouvre un cycle de dix jours considérés comme les plus bénis de l'année. Le mawlana Ziyad Mohideen rappelle l'importance spirituelle de ces jours, soulignant qu'ils occupent une place centrale dans la pratique religieuse et la dévotion des fidèles. Il précise également que ce mois revêt une dimension majeure dans l'islam, marquée par l'accomplissement du Hadj, cinquième pilier de l'islam, mais aussi par le jeûne de Arafah au neuvième jour et la commémoration du sacrifice du prophète Abraham, soit l'Eid-ul-Adha au dixième jour.

Les bienséances de l'Aïd al AdhaÉmission live du vendredi 15 mai 2026____________________________________________

La date de célébration de l'Eid Ul Adha 2026 sera connue à l'issue de l'observation du croissant de la nouvelle lune prévue ce lundi 18 mai à Maurice. L'Imam Zaheer Peerbux explique que si le croissant lunaire est aperçu dans la soirée du lundi 18 mai, le mardi 19 mai marquera le début du mois de Zil Hadj 1447 et l'Eid Ul Adha sera célébré le jeudi 28 mai 2026. En revanche, si la lune n'est pas visible ce soir-là, le mercredi 20 mai deviendra le premier jour de Zil Hadj 1447, repoussant ainsi la fête du sacrifice au vendredi 29 mai 2026. Par ailleurs, la Jummah Masjid demande aux personnes ayant aperçu le croissant de lune de contacter immédiatement l'institution afin de fournir leur témoignage, ainsi que celui d'éventuels autres témoins.

Les nobles objectifs des dix jours bénis (المقاصد العالية في العشر الفاضلة) expliquent l'importance et les bienfaits des dix premiers jours du mois de Dhu al-Hijjah dans l'islam, souvent associés à l'Aïd al-Adha.

À quelques semaines de l'Eid-ul-Adha, la décision du gouvernement de plafonner le prix du bétail à Rs 186 le kilo provoque de vives réactions dans le secteur de la boucherie. Plusieurs opérateurs dénoncent une mesure qu'ils jugent difficilement applicable, affirmant acheter les animaux à des prix supérieurs auprès des fournisseurs. Ils craignent ainsi des pertes financières, mais aussi une éventuelle pénurie durant cette période marquée par une forte demande. Des bouchers affirment que le prix d'achat du bétail avoisine actuellement les Rs 210 le kilo. Selon eux, vendre à Rs 186 le kilo deviendrait économiquement intenable. D'ailleurs, Swakat, boucher, déplore que les mêmes difficultés reviennent chaque année à l'approche de l'Eid-ul-Adha. Il estime qu'une solution durable doit être trouvée. Un autre boucher, qui a requis l'anonymat, affirme que les prix du bétail ont déjà connu deux augmentations cette année. Il dénonce une situation de monopole. De son côté, Maulana Shamim Khodadin soutient la décision du gouvernement de plafonner les prix afin de protéger les consommateurs. Toutefois, il estime que les autorités doivent aller plus loin en agissant contre le monopole dans le secteur afin d'éviter toute pénurie de bétail à l'approche de la fête religieuse. Par ailleurs, le ministère du Commerce et de la Protection des consommateurs, ainsi que des officiers de la Consumer Protection Affairs (CPA), suivent de près la situation afin de s'assurer que tout se déroule normalement. D'ailleurs, on apprend que Socovia a mis en place un nouveau mode d'opération basé sur la vente en ligne, tout en assurant que les prix affichés seraient respectés.

Is it simply a dental hygiene "staffing shortage" or does the data reveal a more complex retention issue? Host Matt Crespin sits down with Thalía Diedrick and Amaya Johnson to unpack the findings of GoTu's recently released 2026 State of Work Report, the largest survey of the U.S. dental workforce, developed in partnership with ADHA. The numbers are striking: 60% of hygienists report burnout, 53.8% received no raise in the last two years, and 41.4% receive zero benefits — and yet nearly 78% intend to stay in the profession long term. These issues lead to a retention crisis driven by resolvable issues, not a lack of committed professionals. Thalía and Amaya break down the three to five year cliff, why physical demand tops the burnout driver list, and why better benefits ranked above better pay as hygienists' number one desired change. They also dig into the rise of flexible and temporary work as a deliberate career strategy, the case for license portability, and what expanding scope could mean for underserved communities.Guests: Thalía Diedrick, Vice President of Marketing, GoTu; Amaya Johnson, Senior Manager of Provider Marketing, GoTuHost: Matt Crespin, MPH, RDH, FADHAEpisode sponsored by GoTu.

It's Friday, May 8th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Three North Korean prisoners to receive human rights award Three Korean missionaries detained for more than a decade in North Korea will receive the Graciela Fernandez Meijide Human Rights Award in August in absentia, reports International Christian Concern. The three men — missionary Choi Chun-gil, age 70, missionary Kim Jong-Uk, age 62, and Pastor Kim Kuk-gi, age 72— were helping North Korean defectors and underground churches in Northeast China before North Korean agents arrested them and took them to jails inside North Korea.  North Korea sentenced the three men to life in a North Korean labor camp. The South Korean government has repeatedly called for the missionaries' release. Analysts estimate that more than 30,000 Christians are currently suffering in these camps where they are overworked, starved, and tortured. Not surprisingly, North Korea denies the existence of such camps. According to Open Doors, North Korea is the most oppressive country worldwide for Christians. Vatican: Homosexual couples are not guilty of sin The new Vatican synod report published May 5th has just dropped a bombshell, reports LifeSiteNews.com. It said, “Sin, at its root, does not consist in the same-sex couple relationship.” Instead, the document suggests sin is merely a lack of faith in God. Homosexual relationships are presented by the Vatican through glowing testimonies. The document takes specific aim at Courage, a Catholic group established for the support of those with homosexual attraction who wish to live chastely and in accord with Catholic Church teaching.  And the report openly questions whether such unions could be considered analogous to marriage.  It asks whether homosexual “relationships” can be thought of as equal “to heterosexual conjugal union,” despite “the evident impossibility of procreation.” This is not a fringe document. It comes from a synodal study group operating with Vatican approval. But Leviticus 18:22 could not be more clear. “Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.” US launches strikes on two Iranian targets On May 7th,  U.S. Central Command confirmed military action within the Strait of Hormuz, saying American forces intercepted “unprovoked Iranian attacks” and struck back amid claims by Tehran that the Trump administration had violated a fragile ceasefire, reports NewsNation.com. According to Fox News, U.S. officials said Qeshm Port in the Strait of Hormuz and the port city of Bandar Abbas were struck. Plus, Iran's Bandar Kargan naval checkpoint in Minab was also hit. CENTCOM officials said Iran launched missiles, drones, and small boats on three U.S. guided-missile destroyers in the Strait of Hormuz headed to the Gulf of Oman. In response, U.S. forces “eliminated inbound threats and targeted Iranian military facilities responsible for attacking.” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said this. RUBIO:  “As President Trump has said, and the facts clearly bear out, the United States of America holds all the cards. There is no scenario here in which, if they decide to join a ladder of escalation, they wind up getting the last say. “But our preference is for these Straits [of Hormuz] to be opened to the way they're supposed to be open, back to the way it was. Anyone can use it. No mines in the water. Nobody paying tolls. That's what we have to get back to, and that's the goal here.” Mark Hamill of “Star Wars” posted image of dead President Trump Mark Hamill, the actor best known for playing Luke Skywalker in the original “Star Wars” trilogy of the 1970s and '80s, posted an image on May 6th that got the White House's attention, reports The Western Journal. The image, posted to Hamill's account on the social media platform BlueSky, showed President Donald Trump lying in a grave, hands folded, with a headstone that read “Donald J. Trump, 1946-2024.” Hamill wrote, “If only he should live long enough to witness his inevitable devastating loss in the midterms, be held accountable for his unprecedented corruption, impeached, convicted & humiliated for his countless crimes. Long enough to realize he'll be disgraced in the history books, forevermore.” Meanwhile, on the social media platform X, the official White House Rapid Response account, called Hamill “one sick individual.” Then, the White House linked Hamill-style rhetoric to other disturbing events, saying, “These Radical Left lunatics just can't help themselves. This kind of rhetoric is exactly what has inspired three assassination attempts in two years against our President.” Texas Governor pressures waterpark to cancel Muslim-only event A planned celebration of a Muslim-only day at the Epic Waters waterpark in Grand Prairie, Texas has been canceled after backlash over religious discrimination, reports Fox4News. The Epic Waters waterpark had planned to hold a private event throughout the park on June 1st to celebrate Eid al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice and the second of two main festivals in Islam. It honors the willingness of Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac as an act of obedience to God's command. When The Worldview first reported the story of the Muslim-only, waterpark-wide event, Cathy Blake of Fate, Texas emailed the Epic Waters leadership. She wrote, “I see you are hosting a Muslim celebration and closing the park to non-Muslims, which is religious discrimination. But, since you probably don't see it that way, and are wanting to be inclusive, I'm wondering what day the park will be available for only Jews or only Christians as those two religions are two of the most practiced religions in America, alongside Islam. Please let me know the date so I can plan my summer accordingly.” When Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott heard about the event, he sent a letter to the City of Grand Prairie in which he threatened to pull $530,000 in public safety grants if the city held the event. The letter states that the event was being advertised as "Muslim Only" before changing its advertisements to state only a requirement of a modest dress code would be enforced. Governor Abbott wrote, "The event purports to be public-facing and discriminatory at the same time: All Muslims—but only Muslims—may attend. An event at a city-owned pool that was publicly and indiscriminately advertised as ‘Whites only' would surely violate the Constitution.” On May 6, officials with the City of Grand Prairie wrote, "After further review and in the best interest of the City of Grand Prairie, the June 1st event at Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark has been canceled." The organizer, Dr. Aminah Knight, noted that 600 people attended the event last year and she was “deeply disappointed.” American Bible Society celebrates its 210th anniversary And finally, on May 8th, 1816, the American Bible Society organized in New York to distribute the Bible worldwide. In 1816, there was a significant demand for Bibles in the United States following the American Revolutionary War.  The importation of Bibles from England had ceased, leading to a shortage as the nation sought to foster religious revival. Since then, it has distributed hundreds of millions of Bibles in thousands of languages worldwide. The first President of the American Bible Society was Elias Boudinot, who had been President of the Continental Congress from 1782 to 1783. John Jay, the first Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, was named the Bible Society president in 1821. And Francis Scott Key, the writer of the United States' national anthem, served as a Vice President from 1817 until his death in 1843. Today, people around the world are longing for the hope and truth found only in Scripture. Consider making a one-time donation today to empower believers with God's Word in their own language. Every $2 you give provides another Bible. The website is www.AmericanBible.org. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 says, “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, May 8th, in the year of our Lord 2026, my 60th birthday. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

(Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Kenyan Somalis killed 7 Kenyan Christian farmers On April 25th, International Christian Concern reports that Muslim Somali herders killed seven Christian farmers in Kitui County, Kenya in a raid. The raiders left behind burned homes, scattered belongings, and families struggling to come to terms with the loss. Local church leaders said many of the affected families are now dealing with loss on multiple levels, including loved ones, homes, and livelihoods.  Remember Jesus's words in Revelation 2:10.  He said, “Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.” War with Iran has cost America $70 billion The cost of war in Iran continues to rise. The Trump administration announced that the war has cost $25 billion, but that does not include the cost to rebuild destroyed military bases in the Middle East. The Iran War Cost Tracker has the cost of the war pegged at more than $70 billion. That is more than $1 billion dollars a day.  Trump removed 300,000 illegals from Social Security rolls The Trump administration is working to reform Social Security by removing illegal aliens off the rolls. Listen to President Trump's latest comments on his protection of Social Security.  TRUMP: “Together with the Republicans in Congress, we've removed nearly 300,000 illegal aliens from the Social Security roles. (applause and cheers) And we've removed more than 100,000 migrants from Medicare eligibility: 100,000 and the number is going up. “What we're really doing is saving Social Security because it was so rife with fraud.” Supreme Court rules against race-based Congressional districts In a blockbuster decision, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 against apportioning congressional districts by race, effectively neutering a portion of the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965.  Following the decision, a flurry of Republican states, including Louisiana, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida began working towards redistricting in favor of Republicans.  However, Democrats are planning their own redistricting efforts, as both parties remain deadlocked in midterm election jockeying.  Supreme Court temporarily allows mail-order abortion drugs In other Supreme Court headlines, it issued an administrative stay on Monday of a lower court ruling, which would have put a stop to the mail order program for the Abortion Kill Pill.   The administrative order will hold for a week, while the court gives the Food and Drug Administration opportunity to respond.  U.S. public school enrollment is down Public school enrollment is down in the United States — a 900,000-person drop over the last decade.   During the same period, Edunomics Lab reports that staffing has actually increased by about the same amount -- 700,000 people or about 12%, ironically. The government school monopoly spends $1 trillion per year on their program, averaging $17,000 per student.  Per student costs, adjusted for inflation, have doubled since 1980. $17,000 cost-per-public schooler vs. $1,600 per homeschooler The Homeschool Legal Defense Association surveyed 4,000 homeschool families and found the per-child costs for homeschooling an elementary school student runs around $1,300, and $1,600 for a middle and high school student. That means a family with five children saves the state $85,000 per year in education costs, and then, spends $7,000 of their own money doing it. America's property tax revolt There is somewhat of a property tax revolt going on across the country.  Florida lawmakers are proposing an end to local government property tax. Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott has suggested something similar. And the states of Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, and Wyoming have other initiatives in process to reform property tax in favor of the taxpayers. 1 Samuel 8 speaks of this tyranny: “[Samuel] said, ‘This will be the behavior of the king who will reign over you: He will take your sons. … He will take your daughters. … He will take a tenth of your grain and your vintage. … And you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, and the Lord will not hear you in that day.” Gas prices have doubled since February U.S. gas prices have almost doubled since late February. Now the average price sits at $4.46 per gallon, up from $2.84 a gallon just two months ago. Idaho requires teachers/doctors to tell parents if child has gender issues The state of Idaho passed a bill that requires teachers and doctors to tell parents if their child is experiencing gender dysphoria. The law, signed by Republican Governor Brad Little, seeks to combat ways in which a child may secretly appear to be the other sex without parental approval.  Republican State Senator Ben Toews stated, “A loophole was left in the [previous] law, and it did not mention social transitions, the process by which vulnerable children are led into the pipeline.” Violations of the new law could lead to steep fines and potential loss of professional licenses. Barbie Director to direct Netflix Narnia film Greta Gerwig is directing the next Narnia film, The Magician's Nephew, to be produced by Netflix, which is expected to be released on February 12, 2027.  Gerwig is best known for her director role in the feminist film “Barbie.”  The first three Narnia movies yielded a worldwide box office total of $1.8 billion. Texas waterpark celebrates Islamic festival by restricting park to Muslims There's a $90 million taxpayer-funded waterpark in Grand Prairie, Texas called Epic Waters which is now celebrating the Islamic holiday of  Eid-al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice and the second of two main festivals in Islam.  It honors the willingness of Abraham to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God's command.  The Epic Waters park will be restricting the park to Muslims, allowing only Halal food to be sold, and requiring head-to-toe Muslim dress for all swimmers. 90-year-old pro-lifer calls for end to F.A.C.E. Act And finally, Eva Edl, a 90-year-old woman who was placed in a Soviet death camp at a young age, is urging Congress to repeal the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances, or F.A.C.E. Act, after she was convicted and put in prison under the Biden administration.  Pro-abortion advocates have used the F.A.C.E. Act to jail and silence pro-lifers. Listen to her recent testimony.  EDL: “Pro-lifers who continue to put their bodies between the abortionist and innocent victims today will continue to be targeted by this unjust law until it is repealed. And yet, despite knowing this, when the Lord asks you to do something, you just simply do it, no matter the cost. After all, He gave His life to save us.” John 15:13 reminds us, “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.”  Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, May 5th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Eid-ul-Adha : le prix du bétail toujours pas fixé by TOPFM MAURITIUS

Periodontal disease affects one billion people worldwide with severe disease, and in the U.S., prevalence has risen 25 percent over the past three decades. So why isn't the needle moving? Matt sits down with Dr. JoAnn Gurenlian, ADHA's director of education, research and advocacy, and Dr. Ann Eshenaur Spolarich, assistant dean for research at the Arizona School of Dentistry and Oral Health at A.T. Still University, to dig into ADHA's new white paper on periodontal disease prevention. They cover the P4 care model, the evidence behind antiseptic mouth rinse, emerging diagnostic technologies, CDT coding for preventive services and what it really looks like to move from telling patients what to do to actually partnering with them in their care. This episode and its companion white paper were developed with support from LISTERINE.Guests: JoAnn Gurenlian, RDH, MS, PhD, AAFAAOM, FADHA and Ann Eshenaur Spolarich, RDH, PhD, FSCDHHost: Matt Crespin, MPH, RDH, FADHAADHA White Paper: https://www.adha.org/rinse-resource-center/white-paper-highlightsRinse Resource Center: https://www.adha.org/rinse-resource-center/ADHA Advocacy: https://www.adha.org/advocacy/

Dental hygienists don't diagnose." It's one of the most persistent misconceptions in the profession, and it's wrong. Podcast host Matt Crespin sits down with the three co-authors of ADHA's newly released white paper "Dental Hygiene Diagnosis" (DHDx) to set the record straight. Darlene Swigart, Krista Beaty, and Toni McLeroy explain where this misconception came from, why the language we use shapes our professional identity, and how every hygienist is already making diagnostic decisions — from elevated blood pressure to food insecurity — whether they call it that or not. They walk through the Gurenlian and Swigart DHDx model, the case for standardizing terminology across education and state practice acts, and why CODA must reinstate DHDx explicitly into accreditation standards. Plus: how to start documenting dental hygiene diagnoses tomorrow morning, how AI fits into the diagnostic process, and why naming what we do is the first step to elevating the entire profession. Essential listening for every dental hygienist, in any practice setting.Guests: Darlene J. Swigart, EPDH, MS, FADHA; Krista L.

What does truly integrated care look like – and what role should dental hygienists play in it? As National Children's Dental Health Month comes to a close, host Matt Crespin sits down with two speakers from ADHA's first-ever Integrated Care Summit to explore how medical-dental integration is reshaping patient care. Nevada hygienist Jessica Woods shares real-world cases – from cardiologist referrals to coordinating airway care for her own daughter – that prove integration isn't just for public health settings. Pediatrician Dr. Connie Gundacker offers a medical perspective, revealing why most physicians receive little to no oral health training and how hygienists can bridge that gap. Together, they make a compelling case: dental hygienists are uniquely positioned to lead integration efforts, if the profession seizes the opportunity. Matt also covers ADHA award nominations, OPA legislative updates and upcoming events. Join these speakers and more at the Integrated Care Summit, May 15–17 in Broomfield, Colorado.Guests: Constance Gundacker, MD, MPH, FAAP, Section Chief of General and Community Pediatrics, Medical College of Wisconsin and Jessica L.

Nursing achieved self-regulation a century ago – so why not dental hygiene? Your host Matt Crespin explores this with Cindy Gadbury-Amyot and Sylvie Martel, lead authors of the ADHA's newly released white paper on self-regulation. With 97% of Canadian dental hygienists self-regulated, Sylvie shares lessons from a 30-year journey of patience, resilience and coalition-building. Meanwhile, Cindy sounds the alarm on threats like Missouri's Oral Preventive Assistant pilot project – and explains why similar legislation is being introduced across the U.S. This episode tackles the big questions: Who should determine scope of practice? How does regulation by dental boards limit access to care? And what will it take to move the profession forward? Whether you're new to the self-regulation conversation or have been advocating for decades, this is essential listening.Guests: Cynthia C.

Kevin Lopez and Paula Chebat join me on the podcast to help shine some positivity on the field of dental hygiene! They're both passionate dental hygiene educators and trainers for the Guided Biofilm Therapy system, doing amazing things with their careers. Despite their impressive accomplishments today, both Paula and Kevin faced significant challenges during their educational journeys, proving that success doesn't always come easily. I appreciate these two for sharing the details of their GPAs out of high school and their struggles with mental health from ADHA and severe testing anxiety, and how they were able to persevere.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-04-2025: Dr. Dawn opens with an experimental vaccine that prevents severe allergic reactions by targeting IgE antibodies. The vaccine could eventually replace current monoclonal antibody treatments like omalizumab that require injections every two weeks. She explains how adjuvants work in vaccines as additives that irritate the immune system enough to notice the vaccine target. Aluminum hydroxide is s common adjuvant. Modern vaccines use small pathogen fragments rather than whole organisms, requiring adjuvants to trigger adequate immune response. Dr. Dawn expresses concern about the US Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices reviewing aluminum adjuvants this week. A Danish study of over one million children finding no connection between aluminum with autism and ADHA contradicts RFK,Jr's public claims.She worries that removing aluminum could devastate vaccine effectiveness and children's health, noting that whenever vaccination rates drop, diseases like measles return to native circulation. She recounts pertussis vaccine history—when Japan stopped vaccination due to rare adverse reactions (approximately one death per million doses), they lost about 5,000 children to whooping cough in the first year. The newer acellular vaccine using pathogen fragments plus adjuvants is safer but only lasts 4-5 years versus lifetime immunity from the older whole-cell version, necessitating "cocooning" strategies where everyone contacting newborns must be recently vaccinated. Dr. Dawn describes a vaccine to prevent fentanyl from reaching the brain now starting clinical trials in the Netherlands. It pairs a fentanyl-like molecule with a carrier protein large enough to trigger antibody production. Once primed, the immune system attacks any fentanyl entering the blood, preventing highs and overdoses—potentially helping people in addiction recovery and those accidentally exposed through contaminated drugs. She reports the first documented death from alpha-gal syndrome. Alpha-gal is a meat allergy triggered by Lone Star tick bites; the tick essentially vaccinates humans against the alpha-galactosidase protein found on beef and pork. Cases have increased since 2010 as climate change expands the tick's range northward, yet a 2023 survey found 42% of doctors had never heard of the condition. Dr. Dawn highlights research from Edith Cowan University showing that blood drawn after exercise suppresses cancer cell growth when added to tumor cultures. In breast cancer survivors, plasma from high-intensity interval training or weight lifting caused cancer cells to stop growing or die; blood drawn before exercise had no effect. The key mechanism involves myokines, particularly IL-6, released by contracting muscles. A Stanford study found colon cancer survivors who exercised were 37% less likely to experience recurrence. A caller asks about pig-to-human heart transplants and mask recommendations. Dr. Dawn clarifies that newer xenotransplant pigs have more genes edited to reduce rejection compared to the 2022 case. For masking, she recommends context-dependent use—especially in public restrooms where toilet flushing aerosolizes COVID-containing particles, transportation hubs, and hospitals, noting that COVID vaccination prevents death but not infection or long COVID. She advises the same caller about spacing vaccines because adjuvant loads stack. Most vaccines can be combined safely, but she recommends against pairing COVID and Shingrix vaccines due to their heavy adjuvant content—wait at least ten days between them. She suggests inducing a sweat the night of vaccination through hot baths, saunas, or exercise to reduce adjuvant-related discomfort without diminishing antibody response. Dr. Dawn discusses seasonal affective disorder. She recommends 5,000 units of vitamin D3 and morning light exposure. She suggests that sun avoidance advice may have gone too far. A UK study of 3.36 million people found 12-15% lower mortality with greater UV exposure even accounting for skin cancer risk. A Swedish study following 30,000 women for 20 years found sun-seekers had half the mortality risk. Benefits may involve nitric oxide production lowering blood pressure, with each 1,000 km from the equator correlating with 5 mmHg higher blood pressure. Lack of bright outdoor light also contributes to childhood myopia, with rates exceeding 80% in some Asian cities. Dr. Dawn concludes with Danish microbiologists at Copenhagen's Alchemist restaurant reviving an old Bulgarian practice of fermenting milk with live red wood ants. The resulting yogurt, cheese, and ice cream contain far more beneficial microbes than commercial products, with a complex lemony acidity. Only live ants work, and wild ants may carry parasites dangerous to humans.
