Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 581-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 32,692 on turnover of 12.7-billion N-T. The market posted heavy declines on Monday, as the main board plunged nearly 1,500 points on the back of investor concerns over major spikes in international crude oil prices amid the US-Israel war with Iran. FM meets Australian lawmaker during stopover Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung has met with an Australian lawmaker during a stopover in Australia on his way home from Tuvalu. Taking to Facebook, Lin said he met with Hugh McDermott of the Australian Labor Party. McDermott also took social media to say he was pleased to meet with the foreign minister alongside (與…一起) parliamentary colleagues and representatives from the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Australia … … and he also posted a photo of himself shaking hands with Lin in Australia last Friday. However, neither McDermott or Taiwan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs have specified where the meeting took place in Australia during Lin's transit stop. Lin Chun-yi wins Taiwan's 1st men's singles title at All England Open Lin Chun-yi has won the men's singles competition at the 2026 All England Open Badminton Championships. The 26-year old, who is currently ranked world No. 11, beat his Indian opponent 21-15, 22-20 in a 57-minute final at the Utilita Arena in the city of Birmingham. The result means Lin has become the first Taiwanese male shuttler to top the podium (領獎台，前三名) in the men's singles event at the annual tournament. Lin's world ranking is expected to break into the top 10 for the first time, when the Badminton World Federation updates its standings later this week. He is ranked as Taiwan's No. 2 male badminton player. Anthropic sues Trump administration Artificial intelligence firm Anthropic has sued the Trump administration after it placed the artificial intelligence company on a national security blacklist (黑名單). The Pentagon has designated Anthropic as a supply chain risk, after it refused to remove guardrails against using its AI for autonomous weapons or domestic surveillance. Kate Fisher reports from Washington Australia Grants Asylum to Iraninan Soccer Team Australian Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke says that Australia has granted asylum to five members of the Iranian women's soccer team who were visiting the country for a tournament. The women were transported from their hotel in Gold Coast, Australia “to a safe location” by Australian federal police officers in the early hours of Tuesday morning local time. There, they met with Burke and the processing of their humanitarian visas finalized (完成), the minister told reporters in Brisbane hours later. An official team list numbered 26 players, plus coaching and other staff. Burke didn't detail what threats the players faced in Iran. The Iranian team arrived in Australia for the Women's Asian Cup last month, before the Iran war began. The team was knocked out of the tournament over the weekend and faced the prospect (可能) of returning to a country under bombardment. That was the I.C.R.T.

Hello to you listening in Brisbane, Australia! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga. It's wretched madness, stupidity, corruption, and greed! Yes, this is the time we're living in. While chances are it could get worse, I can also say that it is impermanent. When does it end? How does it end? No clue. But then again I don't know how electricity works. I can't see it until it flares in a lightbulb. Maybe electricity is like faith: “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” What I have seen is the growing momentum of good trouble. Will it continue? Count on it. I've lived long enough to believe that We the People have the momentum to crush the madness. What this growing momentum is made of, how it will manifest, or where it will come from is yet to be seen.     Meanwhile, “When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.” [~ Harriet Beecher Stowe] Guaranteed!

Brisbane City Council has proposed changes to low–medium density (LMR) zoning, and these updates could influence how Brisbane grows in the years ahead. In this episode of the Brisbane Property Podcast, Scott and Melinda Jennison explain what these proposed planning changes involve and what they could mean for housing supply, development opportunities, and the future shape of many suburbs across the city. The discussion explores the concept of the “missing middle” and why council is considering more townhouses, terraces and low-rise apartments in well-located areas near transport and amenities. They also break down the trade-offs between increasing density and protecting the character that makes Brisbane unique. In this episode you'll learn: What LMR (Low–Medium Density Residential) zoning means in Brisbane Why the “missing middle” has become a key housing discussion How proposed height increases could allow three to four storey developments Potential changes to subdivision rules and lot sizes Why car parking requirements are being reconsidered How these changes may affect housing supply and affordability What the consultation timeline looks like and how residents can have their say Whether you're a homeowner, investor, or planning to buy in Brisbane, understanding these proposed changes could help you see where the city may evolve in the coming years.   Connect with Us: Listen on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/brisbane-property-podcast/id1509129258 Listen on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5tODCtY54iQrxadNqqmevs Subscribe on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCW30uBCnHQ2YllnwGKHNfxg Streamline Property Buyers Website https://streamlineproperty.com.au/ Ready to work with us directly? https://streamlineproperty.com.au/contact/   If you liked this episode, please don't forget to subscribe, tune in, and share this podcast with others you know will benefit from the information we share!

In a dynamic crossover episode of The Smart Property Investment Show and the First Property Buyer Show, host Emilie Lauer sat down with PRD chief economist Dr Diaswati Mardiasmo to explore how data drives property investment decisions in Australia. They begin by highlighting the importance of analysing long-term trends, with Mardiasmo advising investors to examine seven to ten years of suburb performance rather than reacting to short-term fluctuations. Rental yield, vacancy rates, and upcoming developments in the suburbs are also flagged as key metrics for assessing potential returns and risks. Despite the recent 0.25 per cent cash rate increase, Mardiasmo says demand remains strong across the country. The duo dives deep into the different markets, noting that Sydney and Melbourne have slowed, while Brisbane's unit market surged 18 per cent over the past year, boosted in part by the upcoming 2032 Olympics. Brisbane's growth is spreading beyond the city centre to suburbs like Logan and Ipswich, offering affordable investment options. Melbourne, while slower-growing, presents value opportunities, with new apartment supply potentially driving renewed investor interest. Mardiasmo also discusses challenges for first home buyers, noting reduced borrowing power but highlighting available government grants and schemes. Overall, the episode offers practical, data-driven insights for investors and first home buyers, emphasising preparation, strategy, and market awareness.

Every time rents rise, affordability worsens, or housing shortages make headlines, one group is dragged into the spotlight. Property investors.   They're called greedy. Accused of hoarding homes. Blamed for locking younger Australians out of the market.   But is that actually true… or just a convenient narrative?   After more than five decades in property investment, I've noticed a pattern. When housing gets hard, governments deflect. Media simplify. And investors become an easy target.   But here's the real question we need to ask: If property investors disappeared tomorrow, what would actually happen to Australia's housing system?   But are investors really the problem… or are they just the easiest target?   Today, I'm joined by Brett Warren to separate emotion from evidence, myths from facts, and ideology from economic reality.   Brett and I discuss the complexities of the property market, focusing on the role of property investors, the impact of government policies, and the ongoing housing supply issues.     We emphasise that property investors are not the villains often portrayed in the media, but rather essential players in providing rental accommodation.     The discussion highlights the need for long-term solutions to housing affordability and the importance of understanding the true dynamics of the property market.     Takeaways   Property investors are often mischaracterized as greedy. The housing market is facing a significant supply issue. Government policies can inadvertently harm the rental market. Investors provide essential services by supplying rental properties. The narrative around property investors needs to shift towards understanding their role. Long-term planning and infrastructure development are crucial for housing solutions. First home buyer incentives can drive up property prices. The majority of property investors are everyday Australians, not wealthy elites. Supply and demand dynamics are fundamental to the housing market. Clarity and understanding are needed to navigate the property investment landscape.   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of How To Grow A Multi-Million Dollar Property Portfolio In Your Spare Time. ·          Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report.   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at: www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Get the team at Metropole to create a Strategic Wealth plan for your needs.

澳洲與台灣的關係，表面上是一場「recognize」還是「acknowledge」的文字之爭，背後卻牽涉澳洲長達13年無部長訪台的外交空白，以及一份由雪梨大學美國研究中心 (USSC) 歷時一年撰寫的300頁報告所揭示的戰略盲點。從CPTPP的政治角力、稀土供應鏈的高度依賴，到澳洲一旦航道受阻只剩21天燃油儲備的現實脆弱性，這份報告對澳洲政府是一記當頭棒喝。疫情後的地緣政治重組，令台灣的戰略重要性前所未有地凸顯，而布里斯本台灣僑民透過地方政治累積影響力的案例，或許正是香港族群在海外爭取representation的一面鏡子。多邊秩序默契崩潰，各國已不再以北京劃定的框架來定義對台關係，澳洲將如何在中台之間重新校準立場？問：1972年澳洲與中華人民共和國 (People's Republic of China) 建交的聯合公報，究竟對台灣的主權立場說了什麼？ 答：公報分兩個層次：澳洲「承認」(recognize) 中華人民共和國政府為中國唯一合法政府，但對於北京聲稱台灣是中華人民共和國一省的立場，澳洲僅用「認知」(acknowledge) 一詞，並非認可。這兩個英文字在國際法上存在根本分別，recognize代表正式承認，acknowledge只是知悉對方的聲稱，不等於接受其有效性。問：雪梨科技大學澳中關係研究所 (ACRI, UTS) 的資金來源為何引發爭議？ 答：該研究所最初由曾被指從事統戰活動的中國商人黃向墨 (Huang Xiangmo) 出資160萬澳元創立。黃向墨其後被澳洲政府以國家安全為由取消其永久居留權申請及居留資格，但研究所其後繼續獲得中國企業資助，包括建設銀行及被中資收購的建築企業John Holland。問：與其他民主國家相比，澳洲在對台關係上落後了多少？ 答：英國 (United Kingdom) 於2023年與台灣簽署增強貿易夥伴關係備忘錄，並邀請前總統蔡英文 (Tsai Ing-wen) 赴英國會演講；加拿大 (Canada) 同年發布台加關係報告並簽署外國投資保護協議；菲律賓 (Philippines) 於2025年放寬官員訪台限制。相比之下，澳洲自2012年起長達13年未有聯邦部長訪問台灣，且至今沒有正式授權的國會對台機構。問：雪梨大學美國研究中心 (USSC) 報告就澳台關係提出了哪些主要建議？ 答：報告建議從三個層面加強關係：在經濟合作方面，鼓勵澳洲與志同道合的民主國家共同探索台灣加入《跨太平洋夥伴全面進步協定》(CPTPP) 的路徑；在能源與礦產方面，建議澳洲協助台灣多元化稀土供應來源，減少對中國大陸的95%依賴；在國防與安全方面，建議澳洲加強與美國、日本的協調，並重視臺海穩定對自身能源航線的直接影響。問：臺海衝突對澳洲自身有何具體戰略脆弱性？ 答：澳洲已無本土煉油廠，在能源上高度依賴海上進口，理論上一旦航道受阻，全國燃油儲備僅可維持約21天。加上澳洲是中國最大宗商品出口對象，一旦捲入台海衝突，貿易與能源雙線受壓的風險極高。2024年11月已有中國海軍艦艇駛近澳洲近岸，被視為對此脆弱性的直接示威。問：台灣僑民在澳洲地方政治中發揮了怎樣的影響力？ 答：布里斯本 (Brisbane) 是台灣僑民最集中的澳洲城市，人口約達13,000人。當地台裔人士已透過參選地方議會、出任市議員乃至副市長等職位，逐步將社群影響力轉化為政治代表性。布里斯本市議會每年設有多元文化活動，台裔社群領袖定期受邀參與，此模式被視為台灣僑民在澳洲發揮軟實力的重要渠道。問：疫情後為何越來越多國家選擇脫離北京定義的框架，自主建立對台關係？答：疫情期間台灣對外捐贈口罩、中國則被指是病毒源頭，兩者形象的強烈對比加速了國際觀感的轉變。此外，前總統蔡英文推行的「新南向政策」早已為澳洲等地與台灣建立更深的貿易和人員聯繫打下基礎。更深層的結構性變化是：隨著多邊秩序默契崩解，各國愈來愈傾向按自身實際利益處理對台關係，而非跟隨北京劃定的紅線行事。 This is a public episode.

How to Align Your Financial Model with Your Practice Philosophy:  Building Recurring Revenue Through Cultural Alignment  If you want to understand the true culture of a practice, follow the money.  Show me how the money works in a business and I will show you the culture of that business.  Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack a powerful truth: your financial model is a direct reflection of your philosophy, and any misalignment creates friction that limits growth, retention, and impact. They break down the three primary barriers to long-term patient success—time, convenience, and money—and reveal how mapping, efficiency, and recurring revenue models eliminate friction while reinforcing a wellness-based vision. When your payment structure aligns with your clinical recommendations and your belief about lifetime care, you create a culture where patients stay, teams are energized, and predictable revenue fuels sustainable growth. In This Episode You Will: Rethink how your financial structure quietly shapes the culture and retention inside your practice Break down the three hidden friction points that prevent patients from committing long term Explore how mapping, block scheduling, and operational efficiency protect lifetime care Examine the strategic difference between reoccurring revenue and true recurring revenue Walk away with a clearer blueprint for building a membership model that aligns with your philosophy   Episode Highlights 01:07 – A deeper look at why the way money moves through a practice quietly reveals what the business truly stands for. 03:25 – The moment retention shifts from a metric to a responsibility rooted in long-term patient outcomes. 05:31 – Where patient consistency really begins to break down and the subtle friction most practices overlook. 06:47 – The leadership habit that keeps vision alive inside the team instead of slowly fading into the background. 10:35 – What full congruency actually looks like when philosophy shows up in every corner of the practice. 11:35 – Why pre-mapping patient visits changes the entire retention conversation before problems start. 13:08 – The mindset shift that reframes what patients are truly paying for in modern chiropractic care. 14:17 – The quiet power of separating clinical commitment from financial commitment. 18:51 – What starts to break down operationally when friction builds inside long-term patient experiences. 20:56 – How the membership model begins to relieve pressure while creating more predictable growth. 24:44 - Dr. Rachel Hovey is joined by Dr. Naota Hashimoto to explore how Success Partner, TrackStat helps chiropractic practices operate smarter. From AI-driven workflows and no-show automation to real-time stat tracking and recall prioritization, the platform streamlines operations, strengthens accountability, improves retention, and empowers teams to make confident, data-driven decisions that fuel sustainable growth.   Resources Mentioned Learn more about the TRP Remarkable Business Immersion March 6 - 7, 2026 in Phoenix, AZ and March 20 - 21, 2026 in Brisbane, AUS - https://theremarkablepractice.com/upcoming-events/   To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about TrackStat please visit: https://www.trackstat.org/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Topics:Our Society Is Captured: Australia Backs US–Israel Attacks on IranIn a solo “Iron Fist” rant, the host reviews what he calls an unprovoked US–Israel bombing campaign on Iran (“Operation Epic Fury”), describing hundreds of Tomahawk missiles, US aircraft and drones, and about 200 Israeli jets striking 500 sites, killing Iranian leaders including the Supreme Leader and at least 165 schoolgirls; Iran retaliates by striking Tel Aviv and targeting US bases in Gulf states. He argues Western leaders, especially Five Eyes governments and Australia's Anthony Albanese, condemn Iran's response while supporting the attacks, despite Iran being in negotiations at the time. He critiques media and political statements (Laura Tingle, Penny Wong, EU leaders), highlights an MSNBC exchange with Iran's foreign minister, and mocks a UN Security Council session chaired by Melania Trump. He frames the war as driven by the military-industrial complex, Zionists, capitalists, and propaganda, and portrays Albanese as captured by lobbying and abandoning his 2003 anti-Iraq-war stance, including repeating unproven claims about Iran-linked attacks in Australia.00:00 Solo Rant Setup01:13 Why People Accept It02:50 What Happened In Iran05:15 Negotiations And Pretexts07:42 Five Eyes Backing War14:06 Regime Change Playbook17:42 What Iranians Actually Want21:29 Media Clips And Hypocrisy28:58 Orwellian Interviews30:31 UN Security Council Farce30:44 Melania Chairs UN32:40 Melania Doc Roast34:02 Greenland And Denmark34:44 Why Attack Iran Now35:12 Four Forces Behind War38:07 Albanese In Focus38:53 World Reactions Clip41:08 Albanese Then Vs Now44:11 Claims Of Iran Attacks47:36 Greens And Critics50:34 Lobby Power And Capture54:47 Leadership And Wrap UpTo financially support the Podcast you can make:a per-episode donation via Patreon or one-off donation via credit card; orone-off or regular donations via Paypal orif you are into Cryptocurrency you can send Satoshis.

As much as it sucks, more volume is almost always the answer.In Episode #516 of 'Meanderings', Juan & I discuss: volume versus form (sparked by a YouTuber/runner known as Ran to Japan), what extreme running volume really looks like when you're fast enough to compress a marathon into a couple of hours per day, how training load evolves across years, why sheer reps often trump optimisation, steadily ramping the volume to match your goals and importance, why novice gains come from doing more before optimising, how soreness can signal meaningful work done and when “working dumber” (less overthinking) can paradoxically deliver better outcomes.

In this episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience, I share the keynote I gave in Brisbane in 2019 and the subsequent Q&A where I challenge the audience to redefine their view of success and failure. I explain why the struggle and "losing" I experienced as a child prepared me to succeed today and why a lack of patience is crippling so many entrepreneurs. I give tactical advice on where to put your content, why you need to create an "ungodly" amount of it, and why the "fear of people's opinions" is holding you back. You'll learn about:Why I love losing and why you should, tooHow to redefine success by prioritizing happiness over moneyMy advice on why you must produce content on platforms like LinkedIn and TikTokThe fundamental importance of self-awareness and patienceWhy contextual, contemporary communication is the key to all successThe importance of selflessness in your content
