Mit einem Faktencheck von Nándor Hulverscheidt und einem Limerick von Jens Ohrenblicker.

In this third installment on the country of Belarus, Dr. John Bedker addresses the leader, the President of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko.  It is a tale of position and power, not of leadership.  In this episode, John makes clear the path of Belarus, the path to autocracy, and the last remaining dictatorship in Europe. It is a path, in Dr. Bedker's opinion, that is not dissimilar to the path the United States is on.  Government leaders and faith leaders are challenged to “do the right thing,”  to not replicate the history of “leadership" in Belarus.   The peril of democracy in the United States is real and Belarus may be a frightening end game to view.  This episode of the Leadership Works Podcast addresses the many leadership challenges to the future of democracy in the United States.

As the war in Ukraine rages on, we look at the fallout in Ukraine's neighboring countries Belarus and Russia. Russians in opposition to President Vladimir Putin have fled the country in fear of repression. And in neighboring Belarus, Putin's ally Alexander Lukashenko is clamping down on Belarusian language and heritage. Many were arrested and their books destroyed.

The UN has urged Poland to end double standards in the way it treats migrants. It says Warsaw welcomes Ukrainians but routinely locks up people from the Middle East or Africa who enter the country illegally from Belarus. The special rapporteur for migrants' rights, Felipe Gonzalez, says migrants and asylum seekers entering Poland illegally were often locked in foreign centers without the right to leave while their asylum application was processed. Mr. Gonzalez says children and other vulnerable individuals should not be locked up merely due to their migration status.

As we see an increasing number of culturally diverse patients in our practices, there is no doubt of the importance of cultural competency in medicine. Specific circumstances and miscommunications have been well documented. But how can we develop an eye to see where a patient’s values and worldview may differ from our own? We will review an approach to cultural competency highlighted by medical missions case studies.

每日英語跟讀 Ep.K409: Once Again, Tennis Is Disrupted by Politics   If he had it to do over, Brad Gilbert would never have played a professional tennis tournament in South Africa while the country was embroiled in apartheid. 假如美國職業網球選手吉爾伯特能夠重來，他不會在南非還實施種族隔離制度時，參加那裡的職業網球錦標賽。 Martina Navratilova has never regretted challenging Czechoslovakia's Communist government by defecting to the United States in 1975, but she wishes she had been able to persuade her parents and younger sister to come with her. 捷克職業網球選手娜拉提洛娃，從不後悔在一九七五年藉由叛逃到美國，挑戰捷克斯洛伐克共產黨政府，不過她希望當年能說服雙親和妹妹跟著她來。 And Cliff Drysdale, the first president of the ATP, the men's pro players association, is still in awe of his fellow pros for agreeing to boycott Wimbledon in 1973 when Croatian player Nikola Pilic was suspended by his native Yugoslav Tennis Federation, which said he refused to play for Yugoslavia in the Davis Cup in New Zealand. 職業男網選手協會「職業網球聯合會」首任主席德萊斯代爾，仍然敬佩他的同輩職網球員同意在一九七三年抵制溫布頓網球錦標賽，當時克羅埃西亞選手皮里奇被他出身的南斯拉夫網球聯盟暫停溫網參賽資格，聯盟說，皮里奇拒絕代表南斯拉夫參加在紐西蘭舉行的台維斯盃。 Tennis and politics have long had a craggy relationship. This year alone, the sport has been embroiled in three international incidents: Novak Djokovic's deportation from Australia on the eve of the Australian Open because he did not have a COVID-19 vaccination, the Women's Tennis Association canceling all tournaments in China after accusations by Peng Shuai that she was sexually assaulted by a high-ranking government official, and Wimbledon banning Russian and Belarusian players because of the war in Ukraine. The WTA and the ATP subsequently stripped this year's Wimbledon of all ranking points. 網球與政治的關係一直崎嶇不平。單是今年，這項運動就捲入三個國際事件：塞爾維亞名將約克維奇因為沒接種新冠疫苗，在澳洲網球公開賽前夕被逐出澳洲；中國大陸女將彭帥指控一名政府高官性侵她後，國際女子網球協會取消在中國大陸所有錦標賽；以及溫網因烏克蘭戰爭禁止俄國和白俄羅斯選手參賽。國際女子網球協會和職業網球聯合會隨後取消今年溫網所有排名積分。 As this tournament begins, five male players ranked in the world's top 50, including No. 1 Daniil Medvedev and No. 8 Andrey Rublev, both Russians, will be absent because of the Wimbledon ban. Also banned are Russians Karen Khachanov, ranked No. 22, and Aslan Karatsev, No. 43; and Belarusian Ilya Ivashka, No. 40. 這場錦標賽開始之際，世界排名前50的選手中，五名男選手將因這道溫布頓禁令缺席，包括排名第一的梅德維夫和第八的羅布雷夫，都是俄國人。被禁的還有兩名俄國人，排名第22的卡查諾夫和第43的克拉特塞夫，以及排名第40的白俄人伊華舒卡。 For the women, 13 players who would have qualified are not allowed to play, including Russians Daria Kasatkina, ranked No. 13, No. 22 Veronika Kudermetova and No. 83 Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, the 2021 French Open runner-up; and Belarusians Aryna Sabalenka, No. 6 and a semifinalist last year at Wimbledon and the U.S. Open, and No. 20 Victoria Azarenka, a former world No. 1. 在女選手方面，13名符合資格者不准參賽，包括三名俄國人，排名第13的卡薩金娜、第22的庫德梅托娃和第83、2021年法國網球公開賽亞軍帕莉歐申可娃，以及兩名白俄人，排名第六、打入去年溫網和美國網球公開賽準決賽的莎芭蓮卡，還有前世界球后、目前第20的艾薩蘭卡。 The U.S. Tennis Association has already announced that players from Russia and Belarus will be allowed to compete at the U.S. Open in August, although not under their nations' flags. 美國網球協會已宣布，俄國和白俄選手將獲准參加8月美網公開賽，但不能代表他們自己的國家。 “Our sport is always going to be subjected to political forces,” said Drysdale, an ESPN commentator since the network's inception in 1979. “There's always something coming around the corner and rearing its head.” 從ESPN電視台1979年創立後就擔任其評論員的德萊斯代爾說：「我們的運動總會承受政治力，總有些事情很快就會冒出來。」Source article: https://udn.com/news/story/6904/6447714

Authorities in Poland's eastern regions bordering Belarus appealed to the government to help them revive the key tourism sector hobbled by access restrictions following a migrant crisis. The center of the appeal was Bialowieza, a popular tourist venue touted as Europe's last pristine forest that hosts bison, moose, wildcat and many other animal species. Tourism-related businesses in the area say they're suffering and temporary government assistance isn't enough. They urged the government to issue subsidized coupons to draw tourists back to the area. “From the point of view of business the situation is tragic,” said Marek Czerny of the Bialowieski Hotel. “In July we have only 10% of rooms booked, while a year ago it was 60%.” July 1 marked the lifting of a seven-month ban on general access to areas within 5 kilometers (3 miles) from the Belarus border. The ban prevented everyone except local residents from entering the area where thousands of migrants are pushed by Belarus into Poland, according to Polish authorities. Poland has said the plan was to destabilize the region and the EU. Eugeniusz Lawreniuk, deputy head of the local “Bialowieza Forest Region” tourist group said nothing has changed and invited tourists to discover the region for themselves. Poland has in recent months built a metal barrier along part of the border with Belarus to curb migrant arrivals. Local organizations say the wall has had a negative impact on tourism, although they grudgingly accept it. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Quark cheese is a high-protein, low-fat alternative to soft cheese and yogurt that can be used for baking, cooking and blending. In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney talks about quark, which traces back to the 14th century where it was popular throughout Europe, and still is to this day. She clarifies that it is in fact classified as a cheese, although it features a super-thick consistency, which is a cross between cottage cheese and Greek yogurt. Quark cheese is multifaceted in the kitchen and is very popular countries like Russia, Ukraine and Belarus, but it is rare in the US, with only a handful of dairies producing the cheese. The team wonder why they had never heard of this cheese before and whether it has the potential to become more popular among US consumers. Also, in this episode, Sydney discusses the probiotic soda trend and whether these beverages are actually healthy. Simply put, probiotic sodas are carbonated drinks that contain one or more probiotic ingredient(s). Some research shows that probiotics can help maintain a balanced gut microbiome, which supports gastrointestinal health and function. While probiotics can be found in fermented foods, dietary supplements and beauty products, sodas containing probiotics are increasing in popularity. Some companies in the probiotic soda space include Culture Pop, Live and Loop, which uses produce that would otherwise be discarded and gives it a second life in its sodas and other products. The team critically analyze whether probiotics are effective in maintaining gut health and what claims companies can make when advertising probiotic sodas. Read the full articles here:What is Quark Cheese and Why is it Rare to Find in the US?Is Probiotic Soda Actually Healthy and Which Companies Produce It?For more food and beverage industry content, visit the Xtalks Vitals homepage.Follow Us on Social Media Twitter: @XtalksFood Instagram: @Xtalks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Xtalks.Webinars/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/xtalks-webconferences YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/XtalksWebinars/featured

In June, hosts Brianna Lennon and Eric Fey, along with Managing Editor Rebecca Smith, traveled to Central and Eastern Europe to learn more about election administration in democracies overseas.
