Saturday, 14 February 2026 Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” Matthew 16:28 “Amen! I say to you that they are some of those having stood here who not they should taste death until if they should see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” (CG). In the previous verse, Jesus told His disciples that the Son of Man is about to come in His kingdom, and then He will give each according to his practice. He next says, “Amen! I say to you that they are some of those having stood here.” The Greek verb is a perfect participle. As can be seen, the NKJV fails to properly elucidate this, saying, “some standing here.” In fact, one would be hard-pressed to find a translation that accurately translates the verb. Instead, they rely on a present tense or present participle rendering. But Jesus' words indicate a completed action, the results of which are still present or relevant, “having stood here.” The same perfect participle is found in the same context in Mark 9:1. Combined with the words, “some...here,” this limits the scope of what is said to those present. Of those referred to, Jesus next says they are those “who not they should taste death.” A new word is seen, geuomai, to taste. It is used figuratively here to indicate experiencing. It is aorist subjunctive, viewing the whole as a single completed event. In other words, these will not experience death, “until if they should see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” The meaning of this is widely debated. Is this referring to the transfiguration? Does this speak of the resurrection? Is it the beginning of the church at Pentecost? Is it the destruction of the temple in AD70? Is it referring to the millennial kingdom? And so on. Each of these has its supporters. For example, some believe that Jesus' words in John 21:22 mean that John is still alive and he will be one of the two witnesses. One of several problems with that is that the two witnesses will be killed before the Son of Man returns. Further, Jesus' words in Matthew 16:28 are plural, indicating more than one person. One of many problems with the destruction of the temple view is that Jesus didn't return in AD70. If He did, other words of Jesus would be a complete failure, such as Matthew 24:27. There is no record of such an event, something that would not be lacking. That is an unbiblical attempt by preterists to dismiss any future prophecy, including the restoration of national Israel as a literal, historical event. The problem with the Pentecost view is that it was the Holy Spirit, not Jesus, who came upon the people in Acts 2. To conflate the meaning of one with the other is stretching the text like a rubber band, which will eventually snap. As for the resurrection view, as Jesus was not in a glorified state at the resurrection, that also seems to be a stretch of the intent. The account that is noted next at the beginning of Matthew 17 follows in the same manner in all three synoptic gospels, which is a strong hint that tells us that the transfiguration is what Jesus is referring to. It is a kingdom foretaste for the benefit of the disciples. As it is recorded in the word, it is thus provided as a benefit for all. This glorified state was then viewed by John when he received the book of Revelation, including Jesus' return in Revelation 19. For a fuller and more complete explanation of the details of Matthew 16, please continue reading the life application section of this commentary. Life application: Chapter 16 of Matthew is a passage that petitions the Jews of the end times to consider who Jesus is based on their own history, comparing it to how He is portrayed in Scripture. In verse 1, Jesus was approached by the Pharisees and Sadducees, who asked for a sign from heaven. As in Chapter 15, these types of men represent the same thinking and paradigm as the rabbis of Israel today. Jesus told them that they could read the signs in the sky, but they could not discern the signs of the times. With the coming of the end times, the Jews of Israel would naturally be expected to understand the situation they are in, but they will be clueless about the matter. In verse 4, Jesus said that the generation was wicked and adulterous, something akin to what Peter calls the Jews who rejected Jesus in Acts 2:40. Jesus continued that no sign would be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah. As explained, the sign of the prophet Jonah is the destruction of the temple, it being a year for a day based on Jonah's proclamation, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.” In the end times, the Jews will have to look to their Scriptures, understand that their temple was destroyed and they were exiled for rejecting Jesus, internalize this truth, and then have faith in Him based on that. As an explanation of the doctrine of faith in the Messiah, in verse 5, the disciples went across the Sea of Galilee. As such, they crossed the Jordan because the Jordan runs through the sea. Being on the other (east) side signifies those who have not come through Christ to be saved. Jesus told them in verse 6 to take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees. They thought He was talking about bread. But He corrected them by recapping the miracles of feeding the five thousand and the four thousand. These miracles, anticipating the salvation of Jews and Gentiles, testify to His being the Messiah. What He was warning them about was the doctrine of those false teachers, not about bread. Their doctrine is to be equated with the false doctrine of the rabbis and other law teachers of the end times who have returned to law observance, temple worship, etc. It is a warning that the end times Jews are not to follow those Satan-led examples. Faith in Jesus, as represented by the feeding of the masses, is what brings restoration with God. In verse 13, it is noted that Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi. Caesarea is derived from Caesar. The idea of being a Caesar is the deification of the individual. He is attributed a god-like status. Philippi is from Philip, a lover of horses. But in Scripture, a horse is metaphorically used as a source of military pride – “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will remember the name of the Lord our God.” Psalm 20:7 Abarim rightly defines Philippi with the lengthy paraphrase, They Who Lean On Their Military Complex. It is exactly the source of pride that Israel of today is heading towards. Their military superiority is their source of pride and is exalted to god-like status. This will only increase after the battle of Gogd/Magog. It is in this prefigured end-times state that Jesus asks them who He is. The various answers are answers you could expect from Jews. Jesus was a prophet (or false prophet) or whatever. However, Simon Peter proclaims Him the Christ. What was Jesus' response? “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah.” The same name that was acknowledged as the sign in verse 4 is now noted by Jesus. He is Simon (Hearer) Son of Jonah. In other words, he represents the Jews who have understood (heard) the sign of Jonah. To be a son signifies identity. The end times Jews who acknowledge Jesus as the Christ are “sons of Jonah,” because they have made the connection by understanding the sign. In essence, “We missed Him when He came, but we know now who He is.” It is on this proclamation that Jesus will build His out-calling of those in the end times. They will receive the keys to the kingdom of the heavens, entering into the millennial reign of Christ. In verse 21, Jesus spoke of His destiny to suffer and die. Peter's words of admonishment stirred Jesus to turn His back on him, call him Satan, and tell him he was not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men. It is a warning to the end times Jews that they are to accept a crucified Savior as the role of the Messiah. Israel looked, and still looks, for a conquering Messiah, but His role as the crucified Messiah is what God highlights in Him more than all else. From there, Jesus told the disciples the words about denying themselves and losing their souls in order to save their souls. The thought is "losing their souls (meaning their lives) in order to save their souls." It is exactly what is seen in Revelation – “Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.” Revelation 14:9, 10 & “And I saw something like a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those who have the victory over the beast, over his image and over his mark and over the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.” Revelation 15:2 In verse 27, it said, “For the Son of Man is about to come in His Father's glory with His messengers.” This is exactingly described in Revelation 19:11 – “And I saw the heaven having been opened. And you behold! Horse, white! And the ‘sitting upon it' being called ‘Faithful and True,' and in righteousness He judges, and He battles” (CG). Jesus is coming in His Father's glory. In Matthew 24, it notes that in the end times, He will send out His angels (Greek: messengers) to gather His elect. The final verse of the chapter then said, “Amen! I say to you, that they are some of those having stood here who not they will taste death until if they should see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” Again, this is exactly what occurs in Revelation. Some of the end times Jews will make it through the entire tribulation, not seeing death until they behold Jesus coming in His kingdom. These things are gleaned from Matthew 16, forming a picture of what is coming in the future for Israel. Lord God, how precious it is to know that You will not reject Israel, even when the whole world is imploding, You will be with them and carry them as a people through the tribulation and into the time promised to them so long ago. Thank You for Your covenant faithfulness, even to those of us who fail You constantly. Amen. Matthew 16 16 And having approached, the Pharisees and Sadducees, testing, they queried Him to show them a sign from heaven. 2And answering, He said to them, “Evening having come, you say, ‘Good weather!', for the heaven, it is red, 3and early, ‘This day... inclemency!', for glowering, the heaven, it reddens. Hypocrites! Indeed, you know to discern the face of the heaven, and the seasons' signs, not you can. 4Generation – evil and adulteress – it seeks a sign, and a sign – not it will be given it – if not the sign of Jonah the prophet.” And having left them, He departed. 5And His disciples, having come to the beyond, they overlooked to take bread. 6And Jesus, He said to them, “You behold, and you caution from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 7And they deliberated in themselves, saying, “Because not we took bread!” 8And Jesus, having known, said to them, “Why – you deliberate in yourselves, little-faithed? Because you took no bread? 9You grasp, not yet, nor you recollect the five loaves – the five thousand, and how many handbaskets you took? 10Nor the seven loaves – the four thousand, and how many hampers you took? 11How not you recollect that I spoke not concerning bread to you! Caution from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 12Then they comprehended that not He said to caution from the leaven – the bread, but from the teaching – the Pharisees and Sadducees. 13And Jesus, having come to the allotments – Caesarea, the Phillipi, He entreated His disciples, saying, “Whom they say, the men, Me to be, the Son of Man?” 14And they said, “These, indeed, John the Immerser, and others Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15He says to them, “And you, whom you say Me to be?” 16And answering, Simon Peter, he said, “You, You are the Christ, the Son of God, the living.” 17And Jesus, answering, He said to him, “Blessed you are, Simon, Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood not it revealed to you, but My Father, the ‘in the heavens'.” 18And I also, I say to you that you, you are Peter, and upon this – the Rock – I will build My out-calling, and Hades' gates, not they will overpower her. 19And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of the heavens. And whatever, if you may bind upon the earth, it will be ‘having been bound' in the heavens. And whatever, if you may loosen upon the earth, it will be ‘having been loosed' in the heavens.” 20Then He enjoined His disciples that they should say to none that He, He is Jesus the Christ. 21From then He began, Jesus, to show His disciples that it necessitates Him to depart to Jerusalem and to suffer many from the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be roused. 22And Peter, having clutched Him, he began to admonish Him, saying, “Propitious, to You, Lord! No, not it will be, this to You!” 23And, having turned, He said to Peter, “You withdraw behind Me, Satan! Snare, you are, to Me. For you think not these of God but these of men.” 24The Jesus, He said to His disciples, “If any, he desires to come after Me, let him disown himself, and he took his cross, and he follows Me. 25For whoever, if he may desire to save his soul, he will lose it. And whoever, if he may lose his soul because of Me, he will find it. 26For what it benefits a man if he may gain the whole world and he may lose his soul? Or what will he give, man, equivalent his soul? 27For the Son of Man is about to come in His Father's glory with His messengers. And then He will give each according to his practice. 28Amen! I say to you, that they are some of those having stood here who not they will taste death until if they should see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”

The talent market is full of contradictions right now. There are many people looking for jobs, but for many organisations, finding the right talent remains difficult. Caution dominates on both sides, with candidates asking harder questions about stability and culture while businesses are slowing down decision-making around headcount. AI is promising to transform recruiting, but most organizations are still working out where it fits. Through all of this, talent acquisition is clearly evolving. The best teams are thinking about workforce planning, internal mobility, and skills rather than just filling requisitions. However, many of them are still measuring themselves on time-to-hire and cost-per-hire, metrics which capture efficiency but say nothing about real business impact. So what comes next for TA, and how should teams measure what actually matters? My guest this week is Bharat Siyani, VP of People and Culture at Elmo Software. In our conversation, he explains what a broader set of success metrics looks like, where AI genuinely helps versus where humans must lead, and how he sees TA's role changing over the next few years. In the interview, we discuss: The contradictions in today's talent market Finding the signal in the noise The importance of understanding nuance in recruiting What should AI do and what should humans do? How should organizations measure the impact of TA? Efficiency metrics versus value metrics Assessing tech talent at a time of high layoffs Skills and outcomes versus job titles TA's role in shaping the workforce What does the future of the TA team look like?

Fisher Ames didn't just worry about democracy, he despised it. In this episode of America's Founding Series, the life and ideas of Fisher Ames reveal why the Founders feared mob rule, moral absolutism, and political urgency driven by emotion rather than reason. Ames believed liberty survives only when passion is restrained by law, time, and reflection. As modern mobs reject disagreement, delegitimize institutions, and claim authority over the law itself, his warnings feel less like history and more like prophecy. What You'll Learn Why Fisher Ames believed democracy is driven by impulse, not reason The difference between citizens and mobs, why disagreement becomes betrayal, and the impact of social media on polarization and the mob mentality How the Constitution was designed to slow emotional surges before they become law Why gridlock is a feature, not a flaw, in a functioning republic How moral certainty and urgency lead societies toward instability and despotism This episode connects America's founding principles to modern unrest and explains why a republic cannot survive when mobs replace law and emotion replaces judgment.

The episode focuses on current security risks and limitations in industry intelligence, highlighting that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog often lags by years in tagging vulnerabilities exploited by ransomware. One cited vulnerability sat in the catalog for 1,353 days before being flagged as ransomware-exploited, illustrating a significant delay in actionable intelligence. This gap raises concerns for MSPs whose patching priorities rely on outdated catalogs, potentially leading to a misalignment between compliance activities and actual threat vectors.Supporting this, Dave Sobel underscores how evolving threat models frequently bypass traditional vulnerability management. The recent compromise of OpenClaw's skills marketplace, with a 12% malicious rate in submitted skills and basic post-facto reporting mechanisms, demonstrates that credential theft and malicious automation now present risks outside standard patch management. The core operational challenge for MSPs is not just software vulnerability but the governance of AI-enabled tools and uncontrolled marketplaces that can expose clients to breaches.Further contextualizing risk and automation, vendor launches include Lexful's AI-native documentation for MSPs and Cavelo Flash's agentless assessment tool. These offerings promise streamlined documentation and rapid risk assessment, but Dave Sobel notes their reliance on beta features, integration dependencies, and non-definitive compliance positions. Additionally, DocuSign's release of AI-generated contract summaries raises questions about liability, as inaccurate summaries can mislead signers, and responsibility defaults to the end user rather than the vendor.The primary implication for MSPs and technology leaders is the need to inventory all AI-powered tools with access to client environments, actively govern marketplace adoption, and critically evaluate automation claims. Compliance-focused patching is no longer sufficient; operational oversight must prioritize credential management and identity governance over checklist-based approaches. Caution is advised before rapid migration to beta solutions or locking into long-term contracts, as both reduce flexibility and increase exposure to emerging, non-traditional attack surfaces.Three things to know today00:00 CISA's Ransomware Tags Arrive Years Late While AI Tools Steal Credentials Now05:53 IT Glue Founder Launches AI Documentation Platform Lexful for MSPs at Right of Boom09:52 Cavelo and DocuSign Launch AI Tools That Automate Assessments and Contract ReviewsThis is the Business of Tech.

The pastor concluded with four key observations for reflection and application. 1. Remember Our Love for God is Monotheistic. We worship one true and living God who purposed His saving grace for sinners. We must never forget how dead we were in our sins and how great His grace is to us. Forgetting this diminishes our perspective and love for Him. • Remember Our Love for God is Trinitarian. This one God works out His grace through three glorious persons: The Father planned our redemption, the Son accomplished it on the cross, and the Holy Spirit applies it to our hearts. Understanding the depth of this coordinated, loving work should cause us to love God more profoundly—not just with a base "liking," but with a deep, abiding love. • Remember Our Love for God is Prime. The effect of God's grace should produce both a rudimentary love (phileo) and a profound love (agape). Our love for God must be the primary, foundational reality that informs and impacts everything we do and say. When we fail, this primary love should turn us back to Christ again and again. • Remember Our Love for God is Consequential. The stakes are eternal. One who has no love for Christ is eternally accursed. This truth should produce two things in us: A holy fear and humility, recognizing we did nothing to deserve God's grace. A genuine concern and urgency to pray for and share the gospel with those who do not know Christ, because the gospel brings real hope and has the power to take dead sinners and make them alive. We must not lose heart in praying for and encouraging one another in the faith.
Wednesday, 28 January 2026 How is it you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread?—but to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” Matthew 16:11 “How not you recollect that I spoke not concerning bread to you! Caution from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees” (CG). In the previous verse, Jesus continued His reminders to the disciples concerning His miracles, specifically the giving of the bread to four thousand, which was followed by collecting seven large hampers of leftovers. Because of this, He incredulously asks, “How not you recollect that I spoke not concerning bread to you!” He had multiplied bread to feed many thousands on two separate occasions. And more, there was enough bread left over that people could have grabbed a snack for the journey on the way. So why would He care about the disciples not bringing bread? He wouldn't. Something entirely different was on His mind. That is stated with the words, “Caution from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” There are two small changes in some of the texts – How not you recollect that I spoke not concerning bread to you, but to caution from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees. How not you recollect that I spoke not concerning bread to you! Caution from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees. Either way, the sense is understood. In the second example, there seems to be a bit of impatience implied in the response, something that would be completely understandable. Jesus' words in verse 6 said, “You behold, and you caution from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” Not getting the metaphorical nature of His words, they had assumed He was upset that they hadn't brought bread. But now, after reminding Him that He could multiply bread at will, He restates what He had originally said to them, if not a bit more impatiently. He wants them to contemplate the metaphor without His having to explicitly explain it. Life application: What Jesus is doing is instructional. Instead of just outright telling the disciples what He means, He gives them a chance to think through the words. Teachers may do this in class. Instead of saying what the answer to a problem is, they may restate it as a question. In doing this, it forces the students to think through what the teacher intends to say. Otherwise, the students may hear the information in one ear, and it will go right out the other. However, when confronted with the chance to appear smart or refrain from looking uninformed, the question will cause each person to pay attention and contemplate what is on the teacher's mind. An even more subtle approach is what Jesus did. He didn't ask a question. Instead, He said something intending for a metaphor to be considered, but knowing that probably wouldn't be understood at first. Then, after seeing the frustration of the disciples, He takes time to explain why their thinking is askew, and then He restates the original question, implying a demand for them to think again about what they had originally considered. Suppose a person who owns a bell factory is getting married. He walks into the company and says, “I hear bells ringing soon.” The employees may say, “We are working on the whole new line. They should be ready soon!” But the owner repeats his original statement, “I hear bells ringing SOON.” By repeating the same thing, he is letting them know he didn't mean what they thought he meant. By adding stress, he asks them to reconsider the entire paradigm. Searching the recent past, they remember that the boss has been doting on Polly Pretty a lot lately. Suddenly, the bells in their own minds ring clearly. The boss is talking about getting married. The metaphor is not only understood, but it has also been highlighted for them to joke about and reconsider in the years ahead. Jesus has used such a tool. That has now been reiterated to us in millions and millions of copies of the Bible for the past two thousand years. We have learned, explicitly, what leaven is to be equated to when we read the Bible. Lord God, we love how Your word instructs us. Again and again, teaching techniques are used that are intended to help us perfect our doctrine and also remember lessons that may otherwise escape our memories. But because of the way the word is laid out, we will remember many details as clearly as the ringing of a bell. Thank You for this. Amen.
Catholic Money Mastermind - Financial Planning conversations with Catholic CFP® Practitioners
Today, Ben is joined by fellow Catholic Financial Planners Network members Joe Petry and Nick Shiver for a thoughtful conversation on the enduring relationship between risk and reward—and how prudence, discipline, and faith shape wise financial decision-making. Together, they unpack why higher returns always require greater risk, why “get rich quick” strategies prey on greed and impatience, and how human psychology often works against us when markets feel exciting or urgent. Drawing from economics, philosophy, and lived client experience, Joe and Nick emphasize the importance of having a clear financial plan, understanding which risks are truly compensated, and building guardrails that prevent emotion, boredom, or fear of missing out from derailing long-term goals. They explore the value of boring, diversified strategies, the proper role of alternatives and speculative “play money,” and why excitement is often a warning sign rather than a virtue in investing. Woven throughout the discussion is a call to embrace discipline, simplicity, and trust—recognizing that true stewardship is not about chasing easy money, but about aligning risk, effort, and expectations with a life well ordered toward lasting purpose.Key Takeaways:• Risk and reward are inseparably linked—higher returns always require greater risk. Investments that claim “no risk” with high returns should be dismissed immediately.• Humans are wired poorly for risk assessment, especially under fear or excitement.• Risk should be understood, planned for, and managed—not avoided entirely.• A small “play” or “cowboy” account can scratch the itch for speculation without endangering the plan.• Alternatives and real estate can have a role—but never as the foundation of retirement planning.• There are no shortcuts that bypass effort, patience, or sacrifice.Key Timestamps:(00:00) – The Relationship Between Risk and Reward(09:17) – Balancing Optimism and Caution(17:24) – The Dangers of Get Rich Quick Schemes(21:07) – Guardrails and Financial Plans(28:57) – The Benefits of a Simple, Boring Life(34:08) – Alternative Investments and DiversificationKey Topics Discussed:Catholic Money Mastermind, Catholic financial planning, Catholic financial planners, Catholic financial advisors, Ben Martinek, faith and financesMentions:Joe Petry: https://www.mayfair-financial.com/ Nick Shiver: https://www.calmwateradvisors.com/ More of Catholic Money Mastermind:Catholic Money Mastermind Podcast is a personal podcast meant for educational and entertainment.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Mystical Lights: Unveiling Winter Wonders at Lake Balaton Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-01-27-23-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Balatonnál mindig különleges a tél.En: Winter at Balaton is always special.Hu: A vízpart csendesebb, a nyár nyüzsgése már csak emlék.En: The waterfront is quieter, and the hustle and bustle of summer is now just a memory.Hu: Vastag köd borította be a tavat, mint egy puha takaró.En: A thick fog covered the lake like a soft blanket.Hu: Eszter, a művész, és Bence, a tudós, a parton álldogáltak.En: Eszter, the artist, and Bence, the scientist, stood on the shore.Hu: Mindketten lelkesen figyelték az ismerős tájat, de most valami szokatlan történt.En: Both eagerly watched the familiar landscape, but something unusual happened this time.Hu: Ahogy estére beköszöntött a sötétség, egy furcsa fény bolyongott a víz felett.En: As darkness fell in the evening, a strange light wandered over the water.Hu: Ez a fény nem stimmelhetett se a híddal, se a kikötői lámpákkal.En: This light couldn't be from the bridge or the port lamps.Hu: Eszter kíváncsisága azonnal felébredt. „Talán ez lesz az új festményem ihlete!” — mondta izgatottan.En: Eszter's curiosity instantly awakened. "Maybe this will be the inspiration for my new painting!" she said excitedly.Hu: Bencét kevésbé ragadta meg a varázslatos hangulat. „Ez biztosan csak egy optikai csalódás a köd miatt” — mondta.En: Bence was less captivated by the magical atmosphere. "It's surely just an optical illusion because of the fog," he said.Hu: Ő mindig megpróbálta a dolgokat logikusan megközelíteni.En: He always tried to approach things logically.Hu: De Eszter nem ért be ezzel a magyarázattal.En: But Eszter wasn't satisfied with this explanation.Hu: „Bence, nézzük meg közelebbről! Ki tudja, mi lehet ott?”En: "Bence, let's take a closer look! Who knows what might be there?"Hu: Bár Bence eleinte vonakodott, Eszter unszolása és saját tudományos kíváncsisága miatt végül beadta a derekát.En: Although Bence was initially reluctant, Eszter's urging and his own scientific curiosity eventually made him give in.Hu: „Rendben van, de csak óvatosan!” — mondta, miután bólintott.En: "Alright, but only if we're careful," he said after nodding.Hu: Egy csónakot béreltek a közelben.En: They rented a boat nearby.Hu: A víz halkan csobogott a hajó alatt, miközben elindultak a sejtelmes fény felé.En: The water gently splashed under the boat as they headed towards the mysterious light.Hu: A köd mindent körülvett, ami kicsit ijesztő, de éppoly lenyűgöző is volt.En: The fog surrounded everything, which was a little frightening but equally mesmerizing.Hu: Ahogy egyre közeledtek, a fény forrása világosan kezdett kibontakozni.En: As they got closer, the source of the light began to clearly unravel.Hu: Egy ritka természeti jelenséget találtak.En: They found a rare natural phenomenon.Hu: A fényt egy különleges kristályos jégképződmény hozta létre, amelyen a kevéske holdfény csillant meg.En: The light was created by a unique crystalline ice formation that reflected the scant moonlight.Hu: Az egész úgy festett, mint egy égi látomás.En: The whole scene looked like a heavenly vision.Hu: Bence ledöbbent. „Ez valami rendkívüli! Ilyen ritkán fordul elő!” Most már ő is rácsodálkozott a természet megmagyarázhatatlan varázsára.En: Bence was astonished. "This is extraordinary! It happens so rarely!" Now he also marveled at the inexplicable magic of nature.Hu: Eszter mosolygott. Ő már látta, hogyan válik ez a különleges látvány egy új festménnyé.En: Eszter smiled. She could already see how this extraordinary sight would become a new painting.Hu: Visszatérve a partra Bence elismerte: „Igazad volt, Eszter! Nem mindig szabad mindent logikával magyarázni. Néha a kíváncsiság is csodákra vezethet.”En: Returning to the shore, Bence admitted, "You were right, Eszter! Not everything should always be explained with logic. Sometimes curiosity can lead to wonders."Hu: Eszter boldogan ölelte át a barátját: „És én is tanultam valamit. Az óvatosság sem árt az ilyen kalandoknál.”En: Eszter happily embraced her friend: "And I learned something, too. Caution doesn't hurt in such adventures."Hu: Mindketten megtapasztalták a szélsőségek határát – Eszter kalandvágya és Bence racionalitása egy különleges egyensúlyba került.En: Both experienced the boundaries of extremes—Eszter's adventurous spirit and Bence's rationality found a unique balance.Hu: Így, a havas Balaton partján, az esemény különleges emlékké vált számukra.En: Thus, on the snowy shores of Balaton, the event became a special memory for them.Hu: Az éjszaka nemcsak egy új festményt, hanem egy új perspektívát adott Bencének és Eszternek is.En: The night gave not only a new painting but also a new perspective to Bence and Eszter.Hu: Emelt fővel, kissé átfagyva, de szívvel-lélekkel gazdagodva tértek haza.En: They returned home with heads held high, slightly frozen, but enriched in heart and soul.

Media digitali, tra ragionevoli cautele e paure ingiustificate” (“Technopanic: Digital Media, Between Reasonable Caution and Unjustified Fears”). In this episode, we focus on Tecnopanico. We first talk about moral panics surrounding new technology. We discuss misinformation, and whether people easily fall for it. We talk about conspiracy theories, whether people really are in online echo chambers, whether algorithms know us better than ourselves, and whether people can fall into “rabbit holes” on social media. We discuss the supposed link between social media use and mental health outcomes, the problem with monocausal explanations, and whether there is such a thing as “social media addiction”. Finally, we discuss whether bans on smartphones and social media work, and the negative effects of alarmist narratives.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

My guest on this week's Feel Better Live More podcast is Dr Robert Lustig, Professor of Paediatric Endocrinology at the University of California. He's a leading public health expert who has long been exposing the myths of modern medicine and the food industry. His passion is communicating how sugar and ultra-processed food is fuelling the chronic disease epidemic that we are all facing today. Obesity, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, heart disease and so much more are caused, in Rob's view, by the foods that we are eating. In his latest book, Metabolical: The Lure and the Lies of Processed Food, Nutrition and Modern Medicine, he outlines what he calls the ‘hateful eight' – the eight root causes in our body that underlie all chronic disease. He explains how food and sugar impact on them and, most importantly, suggests strategies to counteract them. In this conversation, Rob explains why sugar is so damaging and explains that just like alcohol, our bodies can cope with sugar in small amounts. But in excess will end up in the liver and ultimately trigger us to get sick. Rob's decades of clinical experience and research has led to his bold and compelling assertion that the answer to all chronic disease can be found in real food. His solution? To ‘protect the liver, feed the gut'. I think these 6 words are an elegant way of summarising the nutritional advice that all of us should consider taking on board in order to improve our health and wellbeing. We talk about what constitutes ‘real food' and how different levels of food processing are classified. Rob explains why sugar-sweetened drinks are so disastrous for health, particularly in children – and why diet drinks do just as much damage, if not more. We also talk about TOFI (thin on the outside, fat on the inside) and fascinatingly, Rob outlines the three types of fat gain that we can all experience: subcutaneous (which you can see); visceral (stress-related fat around the middle), and liver fat. It's only the first of these that you're likely to notice – but it's the latter two which we really need to fix, especially as they're already appearing in kids. This conversation is full of mind-blowing facts and insights but it's also really empowering and contains simple, practical tips that all of us can use to improve our lives.

Sermon By: Pastor Roman Folia (The Gospel of Matthew pt. 54)
Le tribunal du canton du Valais a ordonné la remise en liberté de Jacques Moretti, co-propriétaire avec son épouse du bar incendié la nuit du Nouvel an à Crans-Montana ce vendredi 23 janvier 2026. Cette libération a été rendue possible grâce au paiement d'une caution de 200.000 francs suisses (environ 215.000 euros), après 15 jours en détention provisoire. En France, on peut maintenir en détention un suspect face aux menaces qu'une libération ferait peser sur l'ordre public. Et en Suisse ? Ici, des "mesures de substitution" ont été mises en place pour limiter le risque de fuite, souligne le communiqué des magistrats du Valais. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

As we step into a new year, now is the perfect time to start fresh-and that includes safeguarding yourself against tax identity theft. Everyone is at risk of falling victim to tax identity theft, and thousands of Americans are impacted by this crime each year. Fraudsters often target taxpayers early in the year, hoping to take advantage of the busy tax season preparations. Links: Get started on this year's taxes, consider filing through IRS Free File Guided Tax Software IRS tips for finding a trustworthy tax professional Check out TCU University for financial education tips and resources! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter! Learn more about Triangle Credit Union Welcome to Money Tip Tuesday from the Making Money Personal podcast. According to the IRS, tax-related identity theft occurs when someone uses your stolen personal information, including your Social Security number (SSN), to file a tax return claiming a fraudulent refund. A successful scammer can create an online return using your SSN, even if they don't spell your name right. Once the fraudulent account is established, they can not only use it to file taxes on your behalf and receive your refund but also to receive future payments from the federal government. The criminals are adept at using accounts that funnel money into prepaid debit cards so that it is untraceable and unrecoverable. Here are five tips to help you avoid becoming the next victim and help protect yourself against tax-related identity theft. Secure Your Personal Information. Keep your Social Security number (SSN) or individual tax identification number (ITIN) in a secure location. When asked for these numbers, be skeptical and verify that it is a legitimate need. Additionally, keep your home computer security software up to date, and run regular software updates on your connected devices, including the seemingly less risky ones like smartwatches. File Your Taxes Early and Securely. The sooner you submit your tax return, the harder it is for fraudsters to submit a fake one in your name. As soon as you have the necessary documentation, go ahead and take care of this right away. Always file taxes through a reputable service and use a secure internet connection if filing online; avoid transmitting such sensitive information through public Wi-Fi. You may consider filing through IRS Free File Guided Tax Software. If you feel more comfortable relying on a professional to prepare your tax return, choose your tax preparer with care. Monitor Your Financial Statements, Mail, and Email. Regularly check account statements for any unusual activity. Your first sign of tax identity theft this season will usually be a letter from the IRS after filing your return, informing you that one has already been filed using your SSN. Year-round, expected payments that are not received are another sign to watch for. Also be mindful of any tax reporting documents from employers you have never worked with. Rather than ignoring them, follow up to ensure someone else hasn't stolen your identity and taken a job using your information. Communicate with Caution. Beware of unsolicited emails, phone calls, or text messages asking for personal information, and verify the source before you respond. Remember, the IRS will never initiate contact with taxpayers by email, text, or social media to request personal or financial information, including your taxpayer Identity Protection PIN, nor will they ever threaten lawsuits or arrest. Create an Online Account at the IRS Website. Visit the IRS online account website (www.irs.gov) to create your account now and monitor it regularly. While a lot of personal information is required to create the account, once you have done so, you can monitor your tax activity throughout the year, including if a return has been filed in your name. Through your online IRS account, you can then request an Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN). Once established, the PIN must be included on your federal tax return in order for it to be processed as valid. Remember, even with all these precautions, tax-related identity theft can still happen. That's why Triangle Credit Union offers Fully Managed Identity Theft Recovery services for Better Checking account holders. If you suspect your identity has been compromised or you suspect identity theft for any reason, Identity Theft Recovery Advocates will help you recover and mitigate any damage.

Ellie worries over her friendship with Luna after she said something very insensitive to her. But they have bigger problems to deal with. The quake caused everyone to fall down into the sea caves and the damsels are separated and some gravely wounded. Another strange thing... people who should be dead aren't dying...But the Damsels cannot and will not say no to helping the injured animals get to safety. Time to rescue Peanutbutter the horse The Damsels begin to collect the survivors from the earthquake and the fall. They find Castle staff and members of the royal family while searching. Ciara uses her familiar to search for the other team members.Elly takes her opportunity to tease Van, Ari's uncle for his choices in animal transformation. LOL A long time pet peeve of his. Ciara gets to endure the awkward reunion of Arteus and his estranged mother. Ari gets terrible news of her Aunt being mortally wounded. Luna finally gets a lead to help her in her upcoming trial, a Doctor named Taeo has offered to examine her for his studies for lycanthropy. She consents and has to endure a harrowing mental experiment. The damsels finally have a moment go looking for their belongings amid the wreckage.

In this week's episode of The Korea Pro Podcast, Jeongmin, John and Joon Ha begin with South Korean prosecutors' request for the death sentence for former President Yoon Suk Yeol over his Dec. 2024 martial law decree. The hosts assess why, despite the severity of the charge, the likelihood of an actual death penalty ruling remains low and what the case signals about prosecutorial strategy, judicial precedent and political risk management ahead of a February verdict. The discussion then turns to President Lee Jae Myung's summit with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi. The team examines the substance of their agreement on North Korean denuclearization and supply-chain cooperation at a time of deteriorating Japan-China relations, as well as the unexpectedly warm personal dynamics between the two leaders — a sharp contrast to initial expectations. Attention next moves to the Bank of Korea's (BOK) decision to hold interest rates at 2.5% for a fifth consecutive meeting. John explains how won volatility and rising real estate prices in Seoul are constraining the central bank's policy flexibility, limiting its ability to ease without triggering further capital outflows or asset-price pressures. The episode also unpacks why BOK Governor Rhee Chang-yong signed an open letter backing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and the Fed's independence, and what that signal reveals about global concerns over political pressure on monetary authorities. The conversation concludes with a look ahead to the coming week, including Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's upcoming visit to South Korea — the first by an Italian leader in nearly two decades — and continued uncertainty surrounding the U.S. Supreme Court's pending ruling on the constitutionality of President Donald Trump's “reciprocal” tariffs, a decision with direct implications for South Korea and other U.S. trade partners. About the podcast: The Korea Pro Podcast is a weekly conversation hosted by Korea Risk Group Executive Director Jeongmin Kim, Managing Editor John Lee and correspondent Joon Ha Park, delivering deep, clear analysis of South Korean politics, diplomacy, security, society and technology for professionals who need more than headlines.

Once again, Maroon, Millie & Hindy dive head-first into the world of Mad Libs — the word game where random answers turn a normal story into total chaos. This time, they build a storyline around neighbourhood dramas… and it goes off the rails fast. From nosy neighbours to weird backyard incidents, the Rush Hour crew create a truly unhinged suburban saga — all thanks to their questionable word choices and loose understanding of how the game works.

Recording date: 17th December 2025Olive Resource Capital's leadership team has delivered a nuanced precious metals outlook for 2026 that challenges conventional wisdom whilst identifying specific opportunities backed by fundamental analysis. In this latest Compass podcast, President and CEO Sam Pelaez alongside Executive Chairman Derek Macpherson presented a framework emphasizing selectivity over broad-based precious metals enthusiasm.The firm's highest-conviction call centres on platinum, which Macpherson identified as his top commodity pick for 2026. The case rests on three pillars: persistent market deficits, tight physical supply, and anticipated policy shifts. "The market's in deficit. It's a small market and it's tight," Macpherson explained, before highlighting a critical catalyst: "I think we're going to see some of these EV mandates are going to get rolled off. More ICE engines by 2030 or 2035 are going to evaporate." This reassessment of aggressive electric vehicle timelines supports continued internal combustion engine production, sustaining autocatalyst demand for platinum and palladium. Olive maintains significant positioning in the PGM complex to capture this opportunity.The macroeconomic foundation underpinning precious metals remains robust despite consensus recession fears. Pelaez articulated the firm's contrarian economic view: "I think the global economy surprises to the upside. The general consensus is bearish. The GDP now for the Atlanta Fed is over 3%. The Treasury and the Fed are injecting liquidity right now. China is on an expansionary fiscal policy." Macpherson reinforced this perspective, noting unprecedented global deficit spending: "China's got a trillion dollars worth of stimulus, the US is spending money like it's going out of style. The Europeans all went into deficit spending to fund their defense efforts."This liquidity-driven environment creates favourable conditions for hard assets, though Olive's leadership expects commodity market leadership to potentially rotate from precious towards industrial metals. Gold maintains its portfolio role despite moderated return expectations following 2025's exceptional 60% advance, with Pelaez noting that reduced speculation in precious metals need not preclude continued gold strength supported by central bank buying and monetary accommodation.Perhaps most controversially, both executives expect silver to disappoint investors in 2026 despite positive fundamentals. Pelaez explained: "Every person on the planet seems to be uber-ultra-mega bullish silver. I'm not saying I think silver is going to go down necessarily, but it's going to be the most disappointing because the expectations for it are so high." Technical analysis suggests silver "has already corrected up to the average" based on 25 years of volume-weighted data against gold, with "the biggest move in silver" having "already occurred literally over the past eight weeks."Macpherson acknowledged tactical opportunities, expecting a "blowoff top in silver at a higher price than where we are right now," but anticipates year-end underperformance following silver's characteristic pattern of spiking then rolling off. Olive maintains silver exposure to capture near-term momentum whilst preparing to reduce positions.The firm's strategy emphasises diversified mining equities as preferred investment vehicles, highlighting Ivanhoe Mines with its PGM production "coming online at a perfect time when the market is moving higher." This approach provides leveraged precious metals exposure whilst managing single-commodity risk through companies with multiple revenue streams and operational catalysts.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The 2026 IPO market is heating up: John Jannarone and Evan Schlossman break down what to expect. John anticipates debuts from Kraken and OpenAI, while Evan is also watching Canva. Other expected names are Anthropic, Databricks, Huntress, SpaceX, and more tech companies. “We're seeing a huge amount of enthusiasm from investors,” Evan says. John notes capital raises from names like Anthropic, saying private markets are “red hot,” so retail investors need caution if these companies are continuing to look for funding. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Mike explains why he's trying to be patient when it comes to the hiring of Pat Fitzgerald.
Patton, a cavalryman, carefully accepted that mechanized warfare was the future and became a great advocate of the tank, though his career progression required caution. He was wounded in WWI, feeling he had failed his destiny to die a hero. Montgomery, post-war, was an aloof but talented brigade major who gained confidence by publishing his views on training, asserting "the Montgomery way." Rommel, who married well, became an inspirational lecturer at the Dresden Infantry School. Patton failed a character test by rejecting Joe Angelo, the man who saved his life, after his zealous role in suppressing the Bonus Army in 1932.
