In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover violent new attacks on ICE agents in Chicago and Portland, Trump's plan to federalize National Guard units, the shutdown of apps used to track ICE officers, a cash offer to illegal immigrants, a shocking Virginia political scandal, and global updates from Greenland to Ukraine, the UK, Gaza, and Africa. Quick hits to launch your week with the facts shaping America and the world. Violent Weekend on the Immigration Front: Radical activists in Chicago used phone apps to track ICE agents, boxed them in with ten cars, and rammed a federal vehicle. When the lead agitator, Marimar Martínez, brandished a gun, ICE agents fired back, lightly injuring her. Chicago police refused to assist, with supervisors citing sanctuary city laws. Trump responded by federalizing 300 Illinois National Guardsmen, saying, “If the governor won't protect federal officers, I will.” Portland Judge Blocks Federal Guard Deployment: After months of violence and arson targeting federal buildings, Oregon's Judge Karin Immergut refused to let Trump deploy 200 Oregon Guardsmen. The White House will instead send California troops. City council member Angelita Morillo, an admitted Marxist, has been helping activists buy burner phones to coordinate attacks. Apple and Google Drop Anti-ICE Apps: Following a Trump DOJ order, Apple and Google removed apps used to crowdsource ICE agent locations. Developers and activists called the move authoritarian, but DHS pointed to the weekend's attempted murder of ICE officers as proof the apps “facilitate organized violence, not free speech.” Trump Expands “Pay to Leave” Immigration Program: Migrants aged 14 to 17 who entered illegally will now be offered $2,500 and a plane ticket home. Critics say the policy “coerces” children, but Trump argues it's cheaper and safer than detaining or deporting them. Reuters reports Guatemalan parents still refuse to take their kids back, preferring they keep working in the U.S. Virginia Democrat Calls for Murder of GOP Speaker and Children: Attorney General candidate Jay Jones faces backlash for texting that Republican House Speaker Todd Gilbert and his two young children “should be shot.” Fellow Democrat Abigail Spanberger defended him, saying, “Let those without sin cast the first stone.” Bryan warns, “The Left is openly dehumanizing children now — what happens when words become policy?” Greenland's Rare Earth Deal with the U.S.: The Trump administration is negotiating an investment partnership with Greenland's Critical Metals Corp to secure rare earth minerals and limit Chinese control. Bryan calls it “the front line of America's Mineral Wars.” China Feeding Intel to Russia in Ukraine: Beijing is providing targeting data that includes U.S.-owned facilities, dragging out the conflict to drain American stockpiles. UK Scandal Over Chinese Spies: British PM Keir Starmer quashed espionage charges against two Chinese-linked researchers by refusing to label China an “enemy.” Bryan warns it's time to “pull the plug on Five Eyes intel sharing” until the UK gets serious about national security. Trump's Gaza Peace Plan and Netanyahu's Pressure: Envoy Steve Witcoff and Jared Kushner head to Cairo to finalize a deal requiring Hamas to disarm or face “complete obliteration.” Netanyahu faces backlash from his coalition, which could collapse if Hamas keeps any political power. Nigeria's Christian Genocide Expands: Islamist militants from Boko Haram and ISIS killed hundreds in northern Nigeria, driving thousands into Cameroon. Bryan warns Biden's CIA may be indirectly aiding jihadists to attack Russian and Chinese targets. Medical News — Parkinson's and Back Pain Relief: South Korean researchers linked tooth bacteria to Parkinson's risk, while a German cannabis extract eased chronic back pain. Bryan reminds listeners, “Keep brushing and walking — the mind and body are more connected than we realize.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Chicago ICE attack Marimar Martínez, Trump federalizes Illinois National Guard, Chicago police sanctuary policy, Portland Judge Karin Immergut National Guard, Angelita Morillo Marxist burner phones, Apple Google anti-ICE apps removed, Trump migrant cash offer $2,500, Jay Jones Virginia AG murder text, Abigail Spanberger rage fuel comments, Greenland rare earth minerals Critical Metals Corp, China intel to Russia Ukraine war, Keir Starmer Chinese spies case UK, Trump Gaza peace plan Hamas disarmament, Nigeria Christian genocide Boko Haram ISIS, Parkinson's oral bacteria South Korea, German cannabis chronic back pain

Coffee with Samso | Episode 210 | DY6 Metals (ASX: DY6) | UWA Club, Crawley, Western Australia Guest: Cliff Fitzhenry, CEO – DY6 Metals Ltd Introduction In this latest episode of Coffee with Samso, we return to the UWA Club in Crawley to meet with Cliff Fitzhenry, CEO of DY6 Metals Ltd (ASX: DY6). This conversation cuts through the technical noise to examine what could become a globally significant rutile and titanium discovery in Africa. DY6 is still an early-stage story, but it's positioning itself at the front of the critical mineral narrative and targeting the scarcity of natural rutile, a feedstock commanding premium value in the titanium supply chain. Cliff brings technical clarity to what rutile actually is, why it matters, and how DY6 is forging ahead in Cameroon, a lesser-known but emerging jurisdiction with enormous potential. Key Highlights from the Conversation 1. What is DY6 and Where Are They Focused? DY6 Metals listed on the ASX in mid-2023 with a portfolio of rare earth projects in Malawi, and has since pivoted focus to rutile and heavy mineral sands (HMS) in Cameroon — particularly the: Central Rutile Project (residual saprolite-hosted rutile) Duala Basin Project (coastal HMS project) Both sit in proximity to transport infrastructure, including rail and deepwater ports, and within a fast-evolving mining jurisdiction supported by new modernised regulations. 2. First Results – Reconnaissance Program at Central Rutile Project In May 2025, DY6 completed its first pass reconnaissance sampling at the Central Rutile Project. While shallow (1–3m), the results were promising: Rutile confirmed as dominant titanium mineral Rutile grades above 1.5%, with highs of 2.1%, considered ultra-high grade Heavy Mineral (HM) contents up to 8% in surface samples These results validate the geological model targeting in-situ residual rutile mineralisation. Cliff explains: “We confirmed rutile is the key titanium mineral, and we've since completed 24 auger holes to greater depth using upgraded equipment. We believe those will be far more representative of in-situ rutile mineralisation.” 3. Understanding the Geological Model: Residual vs Alluvial Rutile Cliff offers a masterclass in explaining rutile geology: Residual/Saprolite-hosted: Rutile concentrated in weathered bedrock — easy to drill, free-dig, and dry mine Alluvial: Historically known in Cameroon (1930s–50s), but more dispersed due to river transport The Central Project targets the residual style, like Sovereign Metals' Kasiya deposit in Malawi. 4. Jurisdiction Watch: Why Cameroon? Cameroon is emerging as a serious mineral jurisdiction with: A reformed mining code Newly formed mining commission (DY6's licence applications under review) Proximity to Canyon Resources' bauxite project and Lion Rock Minerals' rutile project “We're bullish on Cameroon. We're setting up our own lab, building a local team, and drilling with purpose. This is the kind of place where tier-one discoveries are still possible.” 5. The Benchmark: Sovereign Metals & Kasiya DY6's model draws clear inspiration from Sovereign Metals' Kasiya discovery in Malawi — a 1.8Bt rutile deposit that reset the market's understanding of sediment-hosted titanium systems. “I was part of the team that made the Kasiya discovery. We know the rocks. Cameroon has similar geology. The model is proven — now it's about execution.” 6. Grades Explained – What Numbers Matter in HMS and Rutile? Understanding the significance of reported grades is crucial: Traditional beach sands (e.g., Iluka-style): ~3–5% HM, mostly ilmenite High-grade rutile cutoff: >1.4% rutile Kasiya MRE cutoff: 0.7% rutile DY6's early sampling: up to 2.1% rutile, a standout in the global context 7. Infrastructure and In-Country Processing Strategy DY6 is building its own mineral sands laboratory in Yaoundé, Cameroon. This eliminates long wait times and expensive logistics. In-country assays for rapid turnaround Heavy-duty auger rigs now operating A 35% complete geochemical soil program underway “We're cutting out expensive delays. Everything will be processed in-country — cheaply and efficiently.” 8. Outlook for 2025–2026: Drill, Define, Deliver DY6's roadmap for the next 12 months includes: Continuous drilling at Central Rutile Project Full geochem completion + maiden deeper drilling campaign Full lab operations in Cameroon Defining high-grade targets for maiden JORC resource Establishing Cameroon as a new titanium hub 9. The Malawi Portfolio – Secondary, But Valuable While Cameroon is the flagship, DY6 retains highly prospective assets in Malawi: Tundulu Rare Earths–Phosphate–Gallium Project Machinga Heavy Rare Earths–Niobium Project Additional lithium, copper, and PGM targets “We're planning follow-up work on the rare earths and gallium, but Cameroon is where the tier-one discovery potential is right now.” 10. The Market View: Underappreciated but Undervalued? Cliff addresses market perception head-on: DY6 trades at a significant valuation gap to both Sovereign Metals (DFS stage) and Lion Rock Minerals (neighbouring Cameroon explorer) DY6 sees a first-mover advantage in a potentially massive province Lack of near-term peers = space to define leadership “We're seeing serious inbound interest. There are majors looking at this region. We think the market will catch up when the drill results start to flow.” Chapters 00:00 Start 01:38 Introduction 02:51 Rutile results from Central Rutile Project 05:59 Does DY6 understand the potential Mineral Assemblages in the Central Rutile project. 06:35 What is the topology like ? 07:21 What is the jurisdiction like in Cameroon? 08:30 Are your neighbours in Cameroon helping you to understand the geology ? 09:36 Does DY6 see themselves contributing in helping distribute information on the rutile prospectivity in Cameroon? 11:00 What is the Heavy Mineral number investors should look for? 13:50 What is the geological model for the Central Rutile Project? 15:11 What will 2025 and 2026 look like for investors? 17:38 What are the Key Milestones for DY6 Metals? 18:28 Is the market understanding DY6 Metals ? 19:35 What is the competition like in this sector? 20:23 Understanding the Heavy Mineral Sands sector. 21:09 What is the Rutile market like ? 22:46 Is the mining of Rutile simple? 24:11 What would you say to potential investors and existing shareholders? 27:16 The Malawi projects. 28:57 How is the Capital Market treating Titanium players? 30:32 Last Words from DY6 Metals? 31:59 Conclusion

Lingthusiasm - A podcast that's enthusiastic about linguistics
Linguistic research has its highs and lows: from staging a traditional wedding to learn about ceremonial words to having your efforts to found a village school disrupted by civil war. Linguistic research can also be about highs and lows: in this case, looking at how high and low tones in Babanki words affect their meaning. In this episode, your host Lauren Gawne gets enthusiastic about the highs and lows of fieldwork in Babanki with Dr. Pius Akumbu, who's a linguist from Babanki, Cameroon, and a Director of Research in African Linguistics at CNRS in the LLACAN Lab (the Languages and Cultures of Africa Lab) in Paris, France. We talk about Professor Akumbu's documentation work on a wide variety of topics from the relationship of Babanki to other Grassfields and Bantu languages, what happens when words have a mysterious extra tone that is only produced under the right circumstances (floating tones), to that time he staged a false wedding to document traditional wedding ceremonial language – and led to a real couple opting for a traditional-style wedding of their own. We also talk about the process of founding a school in his home village to ensure that children have access to primary education in their own language.

Send us a textDrug-resistant germs are hidden killers in more than one way. Not only are the microbes invisible to the human eye, in many places, they're invisible because people simply are not looking for them systematically.Doctors often do not know what infections their patients have and treat them based on best guesses, which allows for ineffective treatments and exacerbates drug resistance. Policymakers don't know which infections are most common among populations and cannot make informed decisions about needed treatments or vaccines.This is a major problem across Africa and a new report shows just how complex the problem is.The Mapping AMR and Antimicrobial use Partnership (MAAP), which included the One Health Trust as well as the African Society for Laboratory Medicine; Africa CDC; the East, Central, and Southern Africa Health Community; Innovative Support to Emergencies, Diseases, and Disasters, a nonprofit focused on technology and communication; the clinical research group IQVIA; and the West African Health Organization, collected data from laboratories from 14 countries in Africa (Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Eswatini, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe). “The study revealed significant gaps in bacteriology testing capacities,” the group, whose work was paid for by the UK government's Fleming Fund, wrote in PLoS Medicine.It's the biggest survey yet of testing for antimicrobial resistance – AMR or drug resistance – in Africa.Among the gaps: too little testing overall, a lack of laboratory capacities, and poor coordination and analysis of records. Many records were kept only on paper, which made them almost impossible to access.None of this surprises Dr. Sabiha Essack, South African Research Chair in Antibiotic Resistance and One Health and Professor in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. In an ideal world, she says, a doctor, nurse or other professional should see a patient, test them to see what specific microbe is causing an infection, check to see which drugs will successfully fight that germ, and then treat the patient accordingly.Cheap point-of-care tests should be available everywhere and the results of those tests should be entered into systems that officials can use to make policy decisions, she says. Listen as she tells One World, One Health host Maggie Fox other ways to improve our knowledge about the drug-resistant infections that lurk out there. Want to know more? You can find One World, One Health episodes on drug-resistant infections in cancer patients; superbugs and microplastics; the personal toll of antibiotic resistance; one woman's antibiotic resistance nightmare; how to prevent drug resistance, and more.

Patrick takes raw calls from people wrestling with grief, troubling media images, and the tangled accusations swirling around Kirk’s legacy. Patrick brings clarity and perspective, breaking down the context behind controversial clips, examining claims of racism, and weaving in Catholic responses of prayer and forgiveness. Amid confusion and unrest, Patrick moves the discussion toward truth, growth, and how even tragedy sparks unexpected conversions and moments of faith. Michelle - I am confused. We are talking a lot about Charlie Kirk. What if a gay or trans person came to your Catholic Church and wanted to serve in the Church. What would Patrick do? (00:43) Estelita (email) - I am one of those who have seen the shooting through the internet unfiltered and uncensored, and it has stirred something in me that I am trying to process. Could you give us, who have seen this clip, your thoughts to help us go through this horrendous event? (04:56) Wally - How I feel as a Catholic immigrant black woman from Cameroon that has been in America for 25 years. Kirk has said hateful things about my race and other minorities. When people die, I don't focus on the good. I concentrate on prayers for purgatory. (13:23) Audio: A black woman posts her thoughts about Charlie Kirk “he was showing a lot of people who were blind to wake up”. I followed him very closely and he is not racist. (17:41) Audio: I can’t find the racist statements that people are posting (3 black commentators talk about how Charlie Kirk was not racist) (28:46) Audio: Same 3 black commentators share clips of Charlie Kirk debating a woman about how blacks are not better off now than they were 80 years ago Patrick shares the entire Charlie Kirk quote that’s been taken out of context about “gun deaths are unfortunately worth it to keep the 2nd Amendment.” (33:16) Joshua – Is the soul of Charlie Kirk still alive, like when Jesus raised Lazarus? (39:44) Jose - Hearing Charlie Kirk has made me want to be a better Christian. (44:49) Kim - I've been praying for my sons to come back to the faith. I think they are being led by Charlie Kirk to come back to the faith. It’s given me hope. (48:21) Nader - I'm a truck driver, and prayer life is helping me (49:40)
In this episode of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast, Dan is joined by Athan Kollias to discuss 3D force plates and innovations in sports tech including AI & biomechanics.Athanase Kollias is the CEO of Kinvent, a Scale Up Cohort 7 company developing technology to help people in physical rehabilitation and athletes improve their movements and performance through precise measurements and real-time feedback. Raised in Thessaloniki, Greece, Athan grew up surrounded by biomechanics. He spent his childhood in his father Iraklis' lab, watching as his father—a biokinetics professor—built innovative equipment to overcome budget constraints. This hands-on exposure to movement science lit a spark in Athan early on, fueling a passion that would shape his future. A former athlete himself, Athan competed in rowing and rugby for over a decade, experiencing firsthand the frustrations of injury recovery. It was during these challenges that the idea for KINVENT began to form—a way to bridge the gap between biomechanics and accessible tools for therapists and coaches. His journey took him from Thessaloniki to Paris, where he earned a double degree in mechanical engineering, splitting his studies between his home university and the prestigious École Centrale. This experience not only honed his technical skills but also opened doors to the French industry. Athan's career began at Michelin in France, where he applied his biomechanics expertise to improve driver comfort in mining vehicles. Later, he worked in Cameroon, further broadening his technical and business experience in diverse environments.For more on Athan & Kinvent be sure to follow @kinvent_official & @athan_kollias*SEASON 6 of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast is brought to you by Isophit.

Interview with Peter Secker, CEO of Canyon ResourcesRecording date: 5th September 2025Canyon Resources (ASX:CAY) is positioning itself as a major force in the global bauxite market through the rapid development of the Minim Martap project in Cameroon. The company owns what CEO Peter Secker describes as "the largest highest grade undeveloped bauxite deposit in the world," containing 1.1 billion tons of reserves grading 51% alumina with less than 2% silica.The deposit's exceptional quality commands significant pricing premiums over industry standards. Guinea bauxite typically grades 40-45% alumina with 3-4% silica, giving Canyon a substantial metallurgical advantage. "Compared to the Guinea bauxite price which is currently around $75 per ton, we would be getting if we were selling today $85 or more dollars per ton," Secker explained, highlighting the 10-12% premium the superior ore commands.Canyon's fast-track development timeline represents a departure from typical mining project schedules. Production is scheduled for Q1 2026 with first shipments by mid-2026, leveraging existing rail infrastructure and a World Bank commitment of $816 million for rail upgrades. The company has secured strategic positions throughout the logistics chain, including a 9% stake in rail operator Camrail and plans to operate its own locomotive fleet.The project's capital structure reflects this streamlined approach, with phase one development requiring less than $100 million. Canyon has secured a $140 million debt facility, eliminating near-term funding risks. The mining operation capitalizes on unique geological characteristics, essentially removing the top 20 meters from a series of plateaus with an exceptionally low stripping ratio of 0.3 tons of waste per ton of ore.At current market conditions, the operation would generate margins exceeding $30 per ton, with production scaling from 2 million tons initially to 10 million tons annually as infrastructure upgrades complete. This scalability positions Canyon to capture growing aluminum demand driven by electric vehicle adoption and aerospace applications in a supply-constrained global market.View Canyon Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/canyon-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature | Bioneers Radio Series
In a world that's unraveling from climate disruption and gaping inequality, another climate crisis confronts us: the climate of hate and othering. Award-winning scholar and educator Valarie Kaur says to overcome racism and nationalism, we must not succumb to rage and grief. As someone who has spent much of her life challenging horrific injustices and intolerance, Kaur learned the lesson that historical nonviolent change-makers understood: social movements must be grounded in an ethic of love. She founded the Revolutionary Love Project, and has emerged as one of the most important voices of the American Sikh community, and a highly influential faith leader on the national stage. Valarie Kaur, born into a family of Sikh farmers who settled in California in 1913, is a seasoned civil rights activist, award-winning filmmaker, lawyer, faith leader, and founder of the Revolutionary Love Project, which seeks to champion love as a public ethic and wellspring for social action.

At a time when startups are primarily funded by private market investors, who you know has become a critical factor in gaining access to that venture capital. But how does the reliance on alumni and professional networks create barriers for startups from historically disadvantaged groups?Emmanuel Yimfor '20 is a finance professor at Columbia Business School and holds a Ph.D. from Rice University. His research focuses on entrepreneurial finance, diversity and private capital markets, with insights into gender and racial disparities in venture capital funding, board representation and how resources could be more equitably allocated.Emmanuel joins co-host Maya Pomroy '22 to discuss his career journey from working at a Cameroonian telecommunications company to teaching at some of the top U.S. business schools, as well as his research on the influence of alumni networks in venture capital funding, how AI tools can address biases in lending, and finally how he's teaming up with his son to bring AI tools to young innovators and entrepreneurs in Cameroon. Episode Guide:01:00 Exploring Entrepreneurial Finance03:36 The Role of Networks in VC Funding08:10 Emmanuel's Journey From Cameroon to the U.S.12:34 The Rice University Experience15:43 Research on Alumni Networks and Funding21:49 Algorithmic Bias in Lending33:17 Empowering Future Innovators in Cameroon38:42 Final Thoughts and Future OutlookOwl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:Rethinking who gets funded in venture capital31:07: What does good networks mean exactly? If you look at venture capital partners, for example, right? They have worked at McKinsey before they became venture capital partners. So they have worked at certain companies, they have done certain jobs that then led them to become VCs. And so to the extent that we have a lack of representation in this pipeline of jobs that is leading to VC, then the founders that do not come from these same backgrounds do not have as equal access to the partners. And so what that suggests is something very basic, which is like, just rethink the set of deals that you are considering. That might expand the pool of deals that you consider, because, you know, there might be a smart person out there that is maybe not the same race as you, but that has an idea that you really, really want to fund. And that is something that I think, like, everybody would agree with. You know, we want to allocate capital to its most productive uses.From hard data to meaningful change29:13: So I have a belief in America, at least based on my life journey, which is: if you work hard for long enough, somebody is going to recognize you and you will be rewarded for it. And so I really believe that America takes in data, thinks about that data for a while to think about whether the research is credible enough, and then, using that data, they are a good Bayesian, so they get a new posterior. They act in a new way that is consistent with what the new before and the new data. And so I think about my role as a researcher as just like, you know, providing that data. Here is the data, and here is what is consistent with what we are doing right now. Now, you know, what you do with that information now is like, you know, update what you are doing in a way that is most consistent with efficient capital allocation—is my hope.Why Emmanuel finds empirical work so exciting 21:34: Empirical work is so exciting to me because then you are like, "I am a little bit of a police detective." So you take a little bit of this thing that feels hard to measure, and then you can create hypotheses to link it to the eventual outcomes, to the extent that that thing that is hard to measure is something that is leading to efficient capital allocation. Then, on average, you know, this feeling that you get about founders that are from the same alma mater should lead to good things as opposed to leading to bad things. And so, you know, that is exactly the right spirit of how to think about the work.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profiles:Emmanuel Yimfor | Columbia Business SchoolEmmanuel Yimfor | LinkedInEmmanuel's Website

Dr. Pippie Hugues, Policy Analyst at the Governance and Democracy Division of the Policy, joins Bongani Bingwa as Cameroon stands at a critical political crossroads. President Paul Biya, now 92 years old, has ruled the country since 1982—longer than most Cameroonians have been alive. Despite surviving coups and crises, Biya has remained in power through military backing and widely contested elections. With a potential eighth term looming, questions are mounting about the future of democracy in Cameroon. Beneath the surface of official parades lies a country grappling with deep poverty, systemic corruption, and the unresolved Anglophone crisis. Rich in oil and agricultural resources, Cameroon’s potential is undeniable—but so are its political challenges. Dr. Hugues helps us unpack the realities behind Biya’s long grip on power and what the upcoming election could mean for the region. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Le ton ne cesse de monter entre Paris et Alger. Avant-hier, Emmanuel Macron annonçait sa décision de suspendre l'accord de 2013, qui exempte de visa les détenteurs de passeport diplomatique. Hier, nous dit TSA, Tout sur l'Algérie, Alger a répliqué en « convoquant le chargé d'affaires de l'ambassade de France à Alger », et en annonçant « que les Français titulaires de passeports diplomatiques et de service, devront (eux aussi) obtenir un visa pour se rendre en Algérie ». Mais ce n'est pas tout, comme l'explique El Watan. Les autorités algériennes ont également décidé « de mettre fin à la mise à disposition, à titres grâcieux, de biens immobiliers appartenant à l'État algérien au profit de l'ambassade de France en Algérie ». ObservAlgérie de son côté, titre : « Passeports diplomatiques et officiels : l'Algérie répond à la France » et souligne « que les relations diplomatiques entre l'Algérie et la France connaissent une tension croissante », rappelant par ailleurs « que cette décision survient dans un contexte de relations déjà tendues, marquées par des divergences sur la gestion des questions migratoires et les droits des ressortissants algériens en France ». Le Matin d'Algérie, lui, évoque « un nouvel épisode dans l'escalade d'une relation bilatérale marquée par la défiance et la volonté algérienne d'imposer une stricte réciprocité ». Enfin, Algérie Patriotique annonce « que les deux premières mesures tombent, en réaction à la nouvelle provocation de la France ». Ton offensif Au Cameroun, l'opposant Maurice Kamto dénonce le rejet de sa candidature à l'élection présidentielle. « C'est la réaction du chef du Mouvement pour la renaissance du Cameroun, à l'invalidation de sa candidature à l'élection présidentielle d'octobre prochain », nous explique l'agence de presse africaine APAnews, qui précise : « dans une déclaration au ton offensif, l'opposant accuse le régime du Rassemblement Démocratique du Peuple Camerounais, le RDPC, d'avoir « sciemment orchestré », son exclusion du scrutin ». « La décision de m'écarter de l'élection présidentielle de 2025, a été prise de longue date par le régime RDPC », accuse encore Maurice Kamto, « qui s'en prend aussi à la communauté internationale, en particulier à l'ONU qu'il accuse d'avoir signé un accord secret avec Elecam, le conseil électoral d'élections Cameroon, le 9 mai dernier, pour (dit-il) prétendument garantir la transparence de l'élection ». Et l'opposant ne baisse pas les bras. Actu Cameroun reprend ses derniers mots : « mes chers compatriotes, je suis debout et resterai à vos côtés ». Relations au beau fixe À lire également dans la presse africaine ce matin, le voyage en Turquie du Premier ministre sénégalais. Dakar Actu publie la photo d'Ousmane Sonko, serrant la main du président turc Recep Tayep Erdogan. Sénégo publie une autre photo des deux hommes assis et regardant l'objectif. De quoi les deux dirigeants ont-ils parlé ? Selon Africa News « ils ont signé quatre accords, dans les domaines de la défense, des médias et de l'éducation », « à l'entame d'une visite de cinq jours que le Premier ministre sénégalais effectue en Turquie ». Les relations entre la Turquie et le Sénégal semblent au beau fixe : Sénégo souligne qu'Ousmane Sonko devait être hier soir « l'invité d'un dîner officiel « organisé en son honneur », « un geste protocolaire, symbole de respect et d'amitié entre les deux nations ». Sur le fond, les problèmes financiers du Sénégal ont été abordés selon Sénéweb, qui titre : « ce que Sonko a demandé au président Erdogan ». C'est de « notoriété publique », souligne le site d'information, « l'État du Sénégal traverse actuellement une situation financière extrêmement délicate (…) ce jeudi, en Turquie, il n'a pas hésité à soumettre la question au président Erdogan, il l'a invité à davantage appuyer le Sénégal, notamment dans le déroulement de son plan de redressement ». Dernier point : les deux hommes ont évoqué la situation à Gaza, précise Dakar Actu, « exprimant ensemble leur indignation et condamnant le génocide qui se déroule en Palestine ».
It's Wednesday, August 6th, A.D. 2025. 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 Jonathan Clark African Muslims have killed 150,000 people in last 10 years A report from the Africa Center for Strategic Studies found militant Islamic groups have killed over 150,000 people across the continent in the last decade. Such groups killed 22,307 people in just the last year, a 60% increase from the previous year. Christian Daily International noted that a majority of them were Christians in West, East, and Central Africa. The report highlighted violence in Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, Mali, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, and Somalia. Each country appears on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most dangerous countries to be a Christian. Christian-majority countries have decreased A new report from Pew Research found the number of Christian-majority countries decreased between 2010 and 2020. The study found that 120 out of 201 countries had Christian majorities in 2020. That's down four countries from 2010. The decrease in Christian-majority countries came with the rise of the religiously unaffiliated. Christians lost their majority status in the United Kingdom, Australia, France, and Uruguay. Meanwhile, the religiously unaffiliated have become the majority in Uruguay, the Netherlands, and New Zealand. Psalm 33:12 says, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance.” Australia upholds ban on Christian doctor over pro-life, pro-heterosexual views Speaking of Australia, officials in the country recently upheld a ban on a Christian doctor for expressing his beliefs online. Dr. Jereth Kok is a general practitioner in Melbourne. He believed it was his duty to speak out on issues like abortion and sexually perverted lifestyles. However, the Medical Board of Australia suspended his medical license in 2019 after anonymous complaints about his social media posts. The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal upheld the suspension last month. The doctor, a born-again Christian, defended his stance, telling the tribunal he expressed these views on a Christian website, driven by his belief that “abortion is immoral” as a Christian and that he felt “required to speak out about the issue.” And, on transgender surgeries, he called it “medical butchery” and “sterilizing disfigurement to healthy young bodies.” Lyle Shelton with Australia's Family First Party commented on the case. He said, “This is about more than one man. It's about whether Australians — especially Christian and conservative professionals — are still free to express their views without losing their livelihoods.” Trump prohibits veterans' hospitals from killing babies In the United States, the Trump administration is reversing a Biden-era policy that allowed veterans' hospitals to perform abortions. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs published the proposed rule on Monday. The new rule will prohibit publicly-funded V.A. hospitals from killing unborn babies. A statement from Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America said, “We thank President Trump and V.A. Secretary [Doug] Collins for restoring the rule of law and ending the Biden administration's illegal policy that forced taxpayers to fund abortions through V.A. hospitals and violated state pro-life laws.” Microsoft reached market capitalization of $4 trillion Microsoft became the second company to reach a market capitalization of $4 trillion last week. This comes shortly after Nvidia reached a $4 trillion market cap last month. Microsoft's latest growth was driven by its Azure cloud computing business. Nvidia and Microsoft have profited significantly from the rise of artificial intelligence technology. Meanwhile, Apple trails at third for most valuable company with a market cap of $3 trillion. American Bible Society: San Fran's Gen Zers more open to Christianity than elders The American Bible Society released a report on the religious views of people in the California's San Francisco Bay Area. The region skews younger, smarter, and wealthier than the rest of the United States. People are also less likely to identify as Christian and more likely to experience stress and anxiety. However, younger generations are more open to Christianity in the Bay Area compared to older generations there and even compared to their peers in the rest of America. The study noted, “Though the Bay Area is home to fewer Christians and more atheists than the United States as a whole, the majority of people in the younger generations are curious, open, and even wish they read the Bible more.” 2 Timothy 3:15 says, “From childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.” NASA planning to build nuclear reactor on moon And finally, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration is planning to build a nuclear reactor on the moon by 2030, reports Politico. Listen to comments from Interim NASA administrator Sean Duffy. DUFFY: “We're in a race to the moon, in a race with China to the moon, and to have a base on the moon, we need energy. Energy is important. And if we're going to be able to sustain life on the moon to then go to Mars, this technology is critically important.” A directive from Duffy stated, “Since March 2024, China and Russia have announced on at least three occasions a joint effort to place a reactor on the Moon by the mid-2030s. The first country to do so could potentially declare a keep-out zone which would significantly inhibit the United States from establishing a [permanent] presence if not there first.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, August 6th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

On this episode I'm joined by Brice Yonkeu as we discuss his career in the arts. With a background in political science, Brice transitioned to the arts, seeking to make a more relevant contribution to culture. In this episode, he shares his experiences working in the arts, from opening his own gallery, Bwo Art Gallery in Cameroon, to participating in Amoako Boafo's residency, dot.ateliers, as the first curator in residency, and showcasing his latest exhibition, a continuation of the show he presented at dot.aterliers upon completion of the residence, on view at Gagosian through August 8. The exhibition, Ever So Present II: Between Home and Elsewhere, brings together the work of four contemporary African artists; Luke Agada, Amoako Boafo, Josèfa Ntjam, and Emma Prempeh, to explore themes of displacement, migration, and the tension between memory and reality. Brice reflects on his transition into art curation, and underscores the importance of presenting complex and rich contemporary African art practices. He also recounts his journey into the art field, and the necessity of creating spaces for African artists to showcase their heritage and contributions to global cultural production and ingenuity. --------------------------------- Follow & Subscribe Website - Sign up for the Light Work newsletter https://lightworkco.com/ Instagram - Follow Light Work on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/sadeolo/https://www.instagram.com/lightworkcompany/ YouTube - Subscribe to the Light Work YouTube Channel www.youtube.com/@lightworkco

Countless of expeditions have uncovered evidence and the natives are full of stories about sightings, and even killing one of these creatures. But. could it be real?

Cameroon’s 92 year-old president Paul Biya seeks re-election to extend his 43-year tenure. We investigate the long and often violent conflict in his country. Is Anglo-Franco reconciliation possible? And is anyone paying attention?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week, Cameroon's Paul Biya announced his plan to run for an 8th term as president at the grand old age of 92. So, we have elected to investigate the science of ageing.First, we ask if a 60-year-old brain is as sharp as a 20-year-old one. Then, we find out about parts of the world that boast impressively long life expectancies. Have these places found the secret to longevity, or are they not what they seem?Next up, we talk to Professor Thomas Boothby from the University of Wyoming about tiny, eight-legged animals called tardigrades, and what they could teach us about living longer. We also dig into the story behind a recently uncovered ancient Peruvian city, before finding out the science behind so-called ‘old wives' tales'.All that, plus many more Unexpected Elements.Presenter: Marnie Chesterton, with Camilla Mota and Phillys Mwatee Producers: Alice Lipscombe-Southwell, with Margaret Sessa-Hawkins, Lucy Davies and Robbie Wojciechowski
American farms are facing an unprecedented workforce crisis as Temporary Protected Status (TPS) programs for multiple countries terminate this August, threatening to remove an estimated 76,000 agricultural workers from the labor force. But what does this mean for food security, rural economies, and the future of legal farm labor?Immigration Nerds Host, Lauren Clarke, is joined by immigration attorney LJ D'Arrigo to reveal how farms following the law through H-2A visa programs face greater penalties than those operating in gray areas, creating a dangerous compliance paradox.D'Arrigo breaks down the "August 5th cliff" – the simultaneous termination of TPS designations for Nepal, Cameroon, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Haiti – and explains why states like Florida (357,000 TPS holders) and Texas (124,000) will be hit hardest. While the Department of Labor signals potential H-2A streamlining efforts, the reality is stark: many longtime farm workers with decades of loyalty to their employers face impossible choices between self-deportation or living in the shadows.From the human cost of breaking up farm families to the economic impact of losing trained workers, this episode explores practical solutions farms can implement now, the enforcement climate creating fear even among legal workers, and why seasonal agricultural visas may be the one area where immigration reform is actually possible. Essential listening for anyone navigating the intersection of immigration policy and America's food supply.GUEST: Leonard J D'Arrigo (LJ), Harris Beach Murtha PartnerHOST: Lauren Clarke, EIG Senior Managing AttorneyPRODUCER: Adam Belmar

In this episode of The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, we take a look at one of the strangest and deadliest natural disasters you've probably never heard of — the 1986 Lake Nyos disaster in Cameroon. Overnight, a silent cloud of carbon dioxide erupted from the lake, wiping out over 1,700 people and countless animals in minutes. We break down what caused it, the terrifying science behind limnic eruptions, and how events like this could still happen elsewhere. Plus, in his podcast debut, our Director of Photography Andy shares his own brush with danger — a close call with a charging rhino — and we talk about how these rare encounters can change your understanding of nature's power.Watch our HISTORY Channel show on: - HISTORY - TUBI Follow us on: - Facebook - Instagram - Twitter - Youtube - Our Website

In this episode, LDG Interviews Kaela Hansen! Kaela is a defender for AFC Toronto, one of the six clubs in the inaugural season of the Northern Super League, Canada's first-ever women's professional soccer league. A young player from Burnaby, British Columbia, Kaela played with the Canadian youth national teams at the U-17 and U-20 levels, including at the 2016 U-17 Women's World Cup in Cameroon.
