The BiG Scuba Duo, Gemma and Ian chat to Barry McGill.  Barry McGill is a deep wreck photographer and CCR instructor trainer with Indepth Technical. His main area of focus is exploration of deep-water shipwrecks around the Irish coastline, and he has been fortunate enough to discover and explore many significant previously undiscovered shipwrecks.   Exploring iconic shipwrecks such as the R.M.S. Justicia, H.M.S. Audacious and R.M.S. Lusitania has left a significant impression on Barry, which helped develop his desire to discover and explore shipwrecks. Barry aims to share his passion for shipwreck exploration by capturing and sharing his images of many previously unphotographed shipwrecks including R.M.S. Amazon, H.M.S. Viknor and H.M.S. D6.   Barry has also been part of many international shipwreck expeditions, most recently in September 2021 where he formed part of an international team of divers who undertook the first internal exploration of HMHS Britannic which lies in 120 m of water in the Kea Channel in Greece. This expedition was funded by the Explorers Club and aimed to document key internal elements of the ship which had never been accessed by divers previously.    https://www.instagram.com/barrymcgill/ https://www.facebook.com/barry.mcgill.125 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbH2StdHWo0P-ARfjmxjPeQ https://indepthtechnical.ie/   The BiG Scuba Podcast is brought to you by Narked at 90.   “Beyond Technical”   If you are thinking of moving across to tech diving or completely new to diving, Narked at 90 can advise and guide on the best equipment and set up for your personal or commercial requirements  https://www.narkedat90.com/?affiliate_code=p42PzCC8sx&referring_service=link   We hope you have enjoyed this episode of The BiG Scuba Podcast.  Please give us ★★★★★ review, and tell your friends and share and like, it all makes a difference.   Contact Gemma and Ian with your messages, ideas and feedback via our media links or email   thebigscubapodcast@gmail.com   Take a look at the  Insta3620 Store    https://store.insta360.com/ and use our affiliate link  BIGSUCBA   We are on Instagram              @thebigscuba   We are on Facebook              @thebigscuba   We are in LinkedIn                 https://www.linkedin.com/in/ian%F0%9F%A6%88-last-325b101b7/ The BiG Scuba Website                      www.thebigscuba.com Amazon Store :                       https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/thebigscuba   Visit   https://www.patreon.com/thebigscubapodcast and subscribe - Super quick and easy to do and it makes a massive difference.

Cum și-a început mandatul președintele Nicușor Dan / Alergător pe lângă minge (G4Media) - După doi ani și o criză majoră, Nicușor Dan are de luat o decizie grea. Diversiunea Cioloș la SRI (SpotMedia) Cum și-a început mandatul președintele Nicușor Dan / Alergător pe lângă minge (G4Media) Dezastruos ar fi cuvântul potrivit. În primele două luni după câștigarea alegerilor, președintele Nicușor Dan a arătat că nu dispune de suficientă forță pentru a-și impune voința politică, a comis cel puțin o eroare majoră și a demonstrat o capacitate limitată de înțelegere a mecanismelor statului, precum și zero instincte politice, scrie jurnalistul Dan Tăpălagă. Un șef de stat dispune de multă legitimitate și de o putere reală, dacă știe cum să le folosească. Când nu o face, tot sistemul îi miroase imediat neputința. Așa se face că, în justiție, nu i-a ieșit mai nimic: Inspecția Judiciară, Înalta Curte, judecătorul propus de PSD la CCR (Mihai Busuioc) — toți provin din tabăra anti-reformistă. Și toți au defilat nestingheriți pe sub nasul indiferent al președintelui Dan. Adăugați la acest tablou și catastrofa de negociere politică de la formarea guvernului, unde PSD a obținut cam tot ce și-a dorit — inclusiv Ministerul Justiției. Altfel spus, tot PSD va propune viitorii procurori-șefi ai DNA și Parchetului General, pe care Nicușor Dan ar dori să-i schimbe. Foarte bine, doar că tocmai le-a cedat PSD-ului puterea de a face noile numiri. Cel mai spectaculos autogol a fost atacarea la CCR a legii care înăsprește pedepsele pentru propaganda extremistă. Nicușor Dan a folosit, practic, aceleași argumente cu Călin Georgescu, George Simion, AUR și Diana Șoșoacă. Președintele mai are o ultimă șansă de reabilitare, odată cu numirea șefilor de servicii secrete, anunțată pentru toamnă. Integral pe pagina G4Media. După doi ani și o criză majoră, Nicușor Dan are de luat o decizie grea. Diversiunea Cioloș la SRI (SpotMedia) Numele lui Dacian Cioloș a fost vehiculat intens în ultimele săptămâni în spațiul public ca reprezentând alegerea lui Nicușor Dan pentru șefia SRI, dar nu a existat nicio discuție între cei doi pe această temă, conform unor surse Spotmedia.ro, speculațiile fiind extrem de asemănătoare cu cele dezvoltate în jurul numirii unui judecător CCR de către noul președinte. Oamenii politici din România au o legătură complicată și netransparentă cu serviciile de informații, iar compromisurile și lipsa de control civil asupra acestora au devenit critice pentru nivelul de încredere din societate în instituțiile statului. Liderii politici cred că raportul de forțe din coaliție depinde de cine va conduce SRI și SIE. Consultarea președintelui cu partidele nu va fi legată de nume, pentru că atributul nominalizării îi revine șefului statului, ci mai degrabă va fi legată de tatonarea șefilor de partide pentru obținerea unor reacții cu privire la votul din Parlament vizavi de o propunere sau alta. Profesorul universitar Andrei Țăranu, explică în exclusivitate pentru Spotmedia.ro  puterea unui președinte și legătura cu serviciile secrete. O lege a serviciilor secrete ar trebui făcută de societatea civilă și experți independenți, spune expertul  Toate încercările de modificarea a legislației de funcționare a serviciilor de informații s-au soldat cu eșecuri răsunătoare, în principal din cauza faptului că proiectele au fost realizate de oameni din interior sau de asociați ai acestora, fiind contestate puternic de opinia publică. Misiune Imposibilă: Dan și Bolojan și cele 24 de luni în care trebuie să salveze România de ea însăși (PressOne) Misiunea uriașă care le stă în față atât lui Nicușor Dan, cât și lui Ilie Bolojan: să convingă nu doar sute de politicieni obișnuiți cu hoția ca stil de viață prosper, ci și milioane de români obișnuiți să se descurce cum pot, deseori prin mici furtișaguri, doar ca să supraviețuiască. Dar cum poți face asta într-o țară în care toată lumea fură? Cum poți vorbi despre dreptate socială când magistrații - tocmai cei care se presupune că ar trebui să facă dreptate - și-au făcut stat în stat și se ceartă cu premierul pe media de vârstă la care binevoiesc să iasă la pensie - că o fi 52 de ani, iar nu 48, cum spune Bolojan? Cum poți repara relația cu acest popor care a votat la două mâini cu PSD și populiștii timp de 35 de ani, dar care a avut pretenția ca răspunderea pentru populism să și-o asume altcineva? În fine, cum poți lupta în răspăr cu un popor mânios și care respinge exact singurele surse de bunăstare care pot ține România în viață în următorii ani - fondurile și valorile europene? Jurnalistul PressOne Adrian Mihălțianu remarcă faptul că s-a acordat o atenție sporită nedreptăților pe care le fac bugetarii (cu mic, cu mare, la grămadă) și privații (mai ales companiile alea mari și străine, care nu-și păstrează, domnule, profiturile în țară), și o atenție foarte scăzută pușculiței de bani a partidelor și a rețelelor lor mafiote din teritoriu: celebrul PNDL / Anghel Saligny, programul din care se hrănesc miile de primari din teritoriu și mai ales baronii locali care au definit aceste partide în ultimii 30 de ani.  Înțeleg că domnul Bolojan nu poate isteriza din prima clientela politică PNL și PSD și că trebuie să-și pregătească atent următorii pași dacă vrea să rămână la guvernare suficient timp cât să urnească lucrurile, însă absența acestui program extrem de dăunător stabilității economice a României din prim-planul discuțiilor publice nu e un semn bun, mai notează editorialistul. În opinia sa, România poate scădea foarte rapid o bună parte din deficitul său bugetar dacă reorientează integral fondurile rămase necontractate din Anghel Saligny către finanțări proprii în proiecte europene.

Primul pachet de masuri fiscale adoptat de Guvern continua sa aiba ecouri. Salariaţi din mai multe instituţii au protestat în Piaţa Victoriei, faţă de măsurile fiscale din primul pachet, despre care afirmă că ”afectează grav capacitatea de administrare a fondurilor europene”. Pe de alta parte, ministrul de resort, Dragoş Pîslaru, spune ca Bruxelles a confirmat că primul pachet adoptat de guvern şi al doilea, care urmează, rezolvă problema traiectoriei fiscale. AUR a atacat la CCR pachetul austerităţii, apreciind că este ”o lege toxică” şi reprezintă un abuz de putere. Masurile sunt prevazute sa intre in vigoare la 1 august.   Sunt reacţii la Moscova după anunţul lui Donald Trump că va da arme Ucrainei Kremlinul transmite ca va analiza declaratiile dar considera că Ucraina la va percepe ca pe un semnal de război. In plus, Rusia sustine ca este dispusa sa negocieze un acord cu Kievul.  Presedintele american s-a aratat dezamagit de Rusia si a anunţat că Washingtonul a decis să continue transferul de arme şi echipamente militare către Kiev, dacă Europa va plăti pentru aceste livrări.   Interviu RFI cu unul din sponsorii campaniei lui Nicușor Dan Numele celor care au sponsorizat cu sume importante în campania electorală a lui Nicușor Dan au fost făcute publice de actualul președinte. Printre acestea și un clujean, de etnie ucraineana, care a împrumutat echipa lui Dan, în două tranșe, corespunzătoare celor două tururi de scrutin, cu 800.000 de lei. Acum om de afaceri, el a explicat de ce s-a implicat în campania prezidentiala.        

Revizurea indemnizațiilor din Consiliile de Administrație ale unor instituții precum Curtea de Conturi, Consiliul Concurenței sau Autoritatea de Supraveghere Financiară, reforma pensiilor speciale și reorganizarea instituțiilor din administrație sunt câteva dintre măsurile pregătite de Guvern pentru următoarele două pachete fiscale. Congresul liberal de maine va fi un bun punct de pornire pentru a masura sustinerea politica de care se mai buura premierul care spunea recent ca este cu mandatul pe masa.      Nicuşor Dan a sesizat CCR pe Legea care vizează organizațiile cu caracter fascist, legionar, rasist sau xenofob Preşedintele susţine că termenii „legionar” şi „fascist” nu sunt explicaţi în mod clar. Seful statului mai spune că, prin comparaţie, in UE astfel de legi sunt mult mai clare. Solicitarea sefului statului este "îngrijorătoare", spune la RFI profesorul universitar Liviu Rotman, unul din cei mai cunoscuți istorici ai vieții evreiești din România.   România are una dintre cele mai mici rate de testare voluntară pentru bolile cu transmitere sexuală din UE, în timp ce acestea sunt tot mai frecvente în rândul tinerilor Ce îi oprește să se testeze? Frica, rușinea, miturile și lipsa de informație. Pentru al doilea an consecutiv, tinerii care merg în această vară la Electric Castle și Summer Well se pot testa, gratuit, pentru BTS, în cadrul programului „Testat e Hot”, derulat de o rețea privată de sănătate.  

Război între magistrați și președintele României. Cine câștigă? (SpotMedia) - Despre extremism: de la Eminescu la Nicușor Dan (DW)  Opriți jaful din companiile de stat! De ce Guvernul Bolojan trebuie să limiteze prin lege salariile și indemnizațiile nesimțite / Cum profiturile companiilor de stat sunt împărțite frățește între șefi și Consiliile de Administrație (G4Media) Guvernul Bolojan are datoria față de contribuabilii corecți – împovărați deja de măsuri de austeritate – să includă în al doilea pachet de reforme anunțat pentru sfârșitul lunii o regândire profundă a modului în care funcționează companiile de stat, scrie jrunalistul Dan Tăpălagă. G4Media.ro a documentat, în ultimele săptămâni, o serie de situații revoltătoare. În esență, vorbim despre jefuirea organizată a acestor companii prin: salarii uriașe, arbitrar crescute, care ajung la mii de euro pe lună bonusuri de zeci de mii de euro acordate fără criterii reale pensionări urmate de reangajări pe aceleași posturi indemnizații de Consilii de Administrație (CA) majorate de zeci de ori, cu aprobări formale și complicități la nivel înalt De regulă, aceste companii decid singure și arbitrar cum își cresc salariile și beneficiile, cu acordul formal – și adesea pasiv – al autorităților de supraveghere. Membrii CA și directorii se comportă ca niște vătafi pe moșia statului: nu răspund în fața nimănui și nu dau explicații pentru risipirea banului public. Da, legislație există. Dar ea este slabă, permisivă și plină de portițe. Iar aceste portițe trebuie închise urgent. Război între magistrați și președintele României. Cine câștigă? (SpotMedia) O decizie care indică mai degrabă teamă, a dus la declanșarea unui conflict între CSM și Palatul Cotroceni din cauza faptului că Nicușor Dan amână să semneze câteva cereri de pensionare venite din partea unor judecători. Magistrații, fără nicio susținere publică, criticați frecvent pentru pensiile speciale și corupția din sistemul de justiție, au ajuns din nou în centrul atenției în urma unor mașinațiuni suspectate ca ilegale prin care au impus-o pe judecătoarea Lia Savonea în fruntea Înaltei Curți de Casație și Justiție. Elena Costache, președinta CSM (Consiliul Superior al Magistraturii), printr-o mișcare surprinzătoare, a decis să-i scrie lui Nicușor Dan pentru a-i cere să semneze un număr de 22 de cereri de pensionare ale unor judecători. Mesajul șefei CSM este șocant prin faptul că dă lecții președintelui, ales de peste 6 milioane de cetățeni, dar și că sugerează o încălcare a legii de către acesta. Dacă CSM cu adevărat a constatat o încălcare a legii de către președintele României, trebuia să pună în discuție acest lucru pe ordinea de zi a Consiliului sau să facă plângere și să deschidă acțiuni în justiție. E fără precedent în istoria recentă a României ca un judecător să-l tragă de urechi pe șefului statului în afara cadrului creat de lege, consideră jurnalistul Emilian Isăilă pe pagina SpotMedia. Despre extremism: de la Eminescu la Nicușor Dan (DW) Președintele Nicușor Dan face o declarație politică atunci când atacă la Curtea Constituțională legea care înăsprește pedepsele pentru fascism, extremism, legionarism și rasism? Și de ce vrea să întoarcă legea din drum? Diana Șoșoacă, AUR și alți parlamentari populiști au făcut deja o contestație la CCR, iar Curtea a respins-o ieri, 10 iulie. Nicușor Dan argumentează în sesizarea trimisă judecătorilor constituționali neclaritatea definițiilor din lege și critică o posibilă restrângere a libertății de exprimare.  Legea anterioară era suficient de puternică pentru a-i ajuta pe procurori și judecători să-i pedepsească pe nostalgicii legionari, pe fasciști și rasiști, doar că magistrații nu erau prea dornici să o pună în practică. Așa a scăpat, prezidențiabilul Călin Georgescu de pedeapsă, după ce procurorii l-au considerat nevinovat. De fapt, în ultimii cinci ani, procurorii au trimis în judecată cam o persoană pe an în baza acestei legi vechi de mai bine de 20 de ani. Președintele se întreabă dacă nu cumva ar putea fi pedepsit și Eminescu, poetul național și se teme ca nu cumva cărțile lui să fie cenzurate. Nicușor Dan se întreabă „până la ce nivel prezența unor idei și concepții fasciste, legionare, rasiste sau xenofobe” transformă un text „într-un material cu caracter fascist, legionar, rasist sau xenofob în sensul Legii”. „Claritatea este necesară”, se arată mai departe în documentul președinției, fiindcă sancționează penal distribuirea unor astfel de materiale. Specialiștii de la Cotroceni fac o confuzie intenționată între literatura de acum 150 de ani și propaganda xenofobă din prezent, mai scrie jurnalista Sabina Fati. Articolul integral pe pagina DW.

It's hard to believe that CCR has been on the air for ten years and produced more than 200 episodes, so Alex sits down and thinks back on how CCR got started and some of the favourite episodes from the past. Including the mysterious Episode 0 and the far better Episode 1, which was recorded. Some good interviews, some of the more nerdy episodes, and the ones that certainly got CCR a tonne of attention. Plus a little bit of encouragement for those thinking of starting up a blog, podcast, or YouTube channel. CCR is ten years old this year, and to celebrate, we're hosting a Photowalk & Brewery Tour on 12 July starting at 11 am from the Great Lakes Brewpub at 11 Lower Jarvis in Toronto, Ontario.

Du kommer i selskab med en række sange fra 60'erne og 70'erne, lyt med til: CCR, Seals & Croft, Doobie Brothers, Supremes, … Læs videre "Sommerhits 2"

Taxă pe gândire. Când bursa devine vis și cartea - lux (SpotMedia) - Statul închide robinetul de mercenari: Guvernul vrea să oprească migrarea cadrelor din Poliție și Armată către armate private, sub pedeapsa închisorii (PressOne) - Ar trebui ca România să ofere avioane F16 Ucrainei? Expert: „Summitul NATO stimulează statele europene să doneze Kievului vechituri” (Adevărul) Guvernul se pregătește să taie sporurile pentru bugetari de la 1 iulie. Ce ia din sporuri va da la consumatorii vulnerabili de energie (HotNews) Guvernul caută soluții pentru a face economii la buget începând chiar cu 1 iulie, fiind luată în calcul inclusiv reducerea sau eliminarea unor sporuri acordate bugetarilor, au declarat, pentru HotNews, surse guvernamentale. Graba noului Executiv este dată de urgența adoptării unor măsuri de protejare, de la 1 iulie, a consumatorilor vulnerabili de energie, pentru care sunt necesare sume mari de la bugetul statului. Cele două proiecte de OUG anunțate de HotNews.ro au ajuns spre avizare la Consiliul Economic și Social (CES). Deși este doar consultativ, avizul CES este obligatoriu înainte de adoptarea oricărui act normativ. 12,4 miliarde de lei s-au dat pe sporuri anul trecut. România are peste 3,7 milioane de consumatori vulnerabili. Mecanismul de sprijin pentru consumatorii vulnerabili, după ridicarea plafonării prețurilor la energie de la 1 iulie 2025, prevede un sprijin lunar în valoare de 50 de lei pentru o perioadă de 9 luni, de la 1 iulie 2025 până la 31 martie 2026. Sunt 2 categorii de beneficiari: persoană singură cu un venit net lunar de maxim 1940 lei familii cu un venit net lunar/membru de maxim 1784 de lei. Taxă pe gândire. Când bursa devine vis și cartea - lux (SpotMedia) Analfabetismul funcțional se apropie de 50%, iar ministrul-psiholog al Educaţiei a decis că bursele sunt prea scumpe. Nu sunt prea scumpe pensiile speciale. De ele nu te poţi atinge că… CCR. Nu sunt prea scumpe subvențiile de zeci de milioane de euro pentru partide. Aici sunt banii de propagandă, cum să-i tai? Nu sunt prea scumpe salariile uriașe din autorităţile şi companiile de stat (unele falimentare), unde se premiază incompetența și pilele. Acum câteva luni acelaşi ministru spunea pe bună dreptate că analfabetismul funcțional e chestiune de securitate naţională. Au trecut alegerile, ne-a lovit brusc conştiinţa bugetului şi deodată nu mai e nicio problemă. Ba chiar se mai poate tăia niţel din banii pentru şcoală. Aşa că acum ministrul David le spune cinic elevilor şi studenților să accepte mai puțini bani pentru burse. De ce? Pentru că, „în situații de criză, lucrurile sunt complicate. Și să vrei, n-ai de unde”. Şi asta în condițiile în care România oricum cheltuie printre cei mai puțini bani din UE pe educație, raportat la PIB. Ne aflăm la același nivel cu Tanzania, după state precum Zambia, Anguilla, Palau, Benin și Panama. România e țara în care educația moare cu zile și e ucisă de cei care ar trebui s-o salveze, scrie Bogdana Boga, redactor șef SpotMedia. Statul închide robinetul de mercenari: Guvernul vrea să oprească migrarea cadrelor din Poliție și Armată către armate private, sub pedeapsa închisorii (PressOne) Ministerul Afacerilor Interne a depus pentru dezbatere publică un proiect de ordonanță de urgență prin care se dorește corectarea portițelor legislative care au permis angajaților din sistemul național de apărare, ordine publică și securitate națională să furnizeze cadre pentru armata privată a lui Horațiu Potra. Corecția se va aplica mai multor legi care reglementează statutul angajaților din sistemul de securitate și urmărește interzicerea în mod expres a prestării de munci pentru companii militare private, chiar și după trecerea în rezervă și sub amenințarea pedepsei cu închisoarea de la 2-7 ani. Hemoragia de personal de specialitate antrenat pentru condiții de luptă pe banii statului român, către compania militară privată deținută de mercenarul Horațiu Potra a ridicat grave probleme de securitate în ultimii ani.

Dr. Neeraj Agarwal and Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching discuss important advances in the treatment of prostate, bladder, and kidney cancers that were presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting. TRANSCRIPT Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Hello, and welcome to the ASCO Daily News Podcast. I am Dr. Neeraj Agarwal, your guest host of the ASCO Daily News Podcast today. I am the director of the Genitourinary Oncology Program and a professor of medicine at the University of Utah Huntsman Cancer Institute and editor-in-chief of the ASCO Daily News.  I am delighted to be joined by Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching, a GU medical oncologist and the clinical program director of the GU Center at the Inova Schar Cancer Institute in Virginia. Today, we will be discussing some key abstracts in GU oncology that were presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting.  Our full disclosures are available in the transcript of this episode.  Jeanny, it is great to have you on the podcast. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Oh, thank you so much, Neeraj. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Jeanny, let's begin with some prostate cancer abstracts. Let's begin with Abstract 5017 titled, “Phase 1 study results of JNJ-78278343 (pasritamig) in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.” Can you walk us through the design and the key findings of this first-in-human trial? Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Yeah, absolutely, Neeraj. So this study, presented by Dr. Capucine Baldini, introduces pasritamig, a first-in-class T-cell redirecting bispecific antibody that simultaneously binds KLK2 on prostate cancer cells and CD3 receptor complexes on T cells. KLK2 is also known as human kallikrein 2, which is selectively expressed in prostate tissue. And for reference, KLK3 is what we now know as the PSA, prostate-specific antigen, therefore making it an attractive and specific target for therapeutic engagement. Now, while this was an early, first-in-human, phase 1 study, it enrolled 174 heavily pretreated metastatic CRPC patients. So many were previously treated with ARPIs, taxanes, and radioligand therapy. So given the phase 1 nature of this study, the primary objective was to determine the safety and the RP2D, which is the recommended phase 2 dose. Secondary objectives included preliminary assessment of antitumor activity. So, pasritamig was generally well tolerated. There were no treatment-related deaths. Serious adverse events were rare. And in the RP2D safety cohort, where patients received the step-up dosing up to 300 mg of IV every 6 weeks, the most common treatment-related adverse events were low-grade infusion reactions. There was fatigue and grade 1 cytokine release syndrome, what we call CRS. And no cases of neurotoxicity, or what we call ICANS, the immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome, reported. Importantly, the CRS occurred in just about 8.9% of patients. All were grade 1. No patients required tocilizumab or discontinued treatment due to adverse events. So, this suggests a favorable safety profile, allowing hopefully for outpatient administration without hospitalization, which will be very important when we're thinking about bispecifics moving forward. In terms of efficacy, pasritamig showed promising activity. About 42.4% of evaluable patients achieved a PSA50 response. Radiographic PFS was about 6.8 months. And among patients with measurable disease, the objective response rate was about 16.1% in those with lymph node or bone metastases, and about 3.7% in those with visceral disease, with a median duration of response of about 11.3 months. So, altogether, this data suggests that pasritamig may offer a well-tolerated and active new potential option for patients with metastatic CRPC.   Again, as a reminder, with the caveat that this is still an early phase 1 study. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Thank you, Jeanny. These are promising results for a bispecific T-cell engager, pasritamig, in prostate cancer. I agree, the safety and durability observed here stand out, and this opens the door for further development, possibly even in earlier disease settings.  So, shifting now from immunotherapy to the evolving role of genomics in prostate cancer. So let's discuss Abstract 5094, a real-world, retrospective analysis exploring the prognostic impact of homologous recombination repair gene mutations, especially BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations, in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Can you tell us more about this abstract, Jeanny? Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Sure, Neeraj. So this study was presented by Dr. David Olmos, represents one of the largest real-world analyses we have evaluating the impact of homologous recombination repair, or what we would call HRR, alterations in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. So, this cohort included 556 men who underwent paired germline and somatic testing. Now, about 30% of patients had HRR alterations, with about 12% harboring BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations and 16% having alterations in other HRR genes. Importantly, patients were stratified via CHAARTED disease volume, and outcomes were examined across treatment approaches, including ADT alone, doublet therapy, and triplet therapy. The prevalence of BRCA and HRR alterations were about similar between the metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer and the metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer, with no differences observed, actually, between the patients with high volume versus low volume disease.  So, the key finding was that BRCA and HRR alterations were associated with poor clinical outcomes in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. And notably, the impact of these alterations may actually be even greater in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer than previously reported in metastatic CRPC. So, the data showed that when BRCA mutations are present, the impact of the volume of disease is actually limited. So, poor outcomes were observed across the board for both high-volume and low-volume groups. So, the analysis showed that patients with HRR alterations had significantly worse outcomes compared to patients without HRR alterations. Median radiographic progression-free survival was about 20.5 months for the HRR-altered patients versus 30.6 months for the non-HRR patients, with a hazard ratio of 1.6. Median overall survival was 39 months for HRR-altered patients compared to 55.7 months for the non-HRR patients, with a hazard ratio of 1.5. Similar significant differences were observed when BRCA-mutant patients were compared with patients harboring non-BRCA HRR mutations. Overall, poor outcomes were independent of treatment of ARPI or taxanes. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Thank you, Jeanny. So, these data reinforce homologous recombination repair mutations as both a predictive and prognostic biomarker, not only in the mCRPC, but also in the metastatic hormone-sensitive setting as well. It also makes a strong case for incorporating genomic testing early in the disease course and not waiting until our patients have castration-resistant disease. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Absolutely, Neeraj. And I think this really brings home the point and the lead up to the AMPLITUDE trial, which is LBA5006, a phase 3 trial that builds on this very concept of testing with a PARP inhibitor, niraparib, in the hormone-sensitive space. Can you tell us a little bit more about this abstract, Neeraj? Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Sure. So, the AMPLITUDE trial, a phase 3 trial presented by Dr. Gerhardt Attard, enrolled 696 patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer and HRR gene alterations. 56% of these patients had BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. Patients were randomized to receive abiraterone with or without niraparib, a PARP inhibitor. The majority of patients, 78% of these patients, had high-volume metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, and 87% of these patients had de novo metastatic HSPC. And 16% of these patients received prior docetaxel, which was allowed in the clinical trial. So, with a median follow-up of nearly 31 months, radiographic progression-free survival was significantly prolonged with the niraparib plus abiraterone combination, and median was not reached in this arm, compared to abiraterone alone, which was 29.5 months, with a hazard ratio of 0.63, translating to a 37% reduction in risk of progression or death. This benefit was even more pronounced in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 subgroup, with a 48% reduction in risk of progression, with a hazard ratio of 0.52. Time to symptomatic progression also improved significantly across all patients, including patients with BRCA1, BRCA2, and HRR mutations. Although overall survival data remain immature, early trends favored the niraparib plus abiraterone combination. The safety profile was consistent with prior PARP inhibitor studies, with grade 3 or higher anemia and hypertension were more common but manageable. Treatment discontinuation due to adverse events remained low at 11%, suggesting that timely dose modifications when our patients experience grade 3 side effects may allow our patients to continue treatment without discontinuation. These findings support niraparib plus abiraterone as a potential new standard of care in our patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer with HRR alterations, and especially in those who had BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Thank you, Neeraj. This trial is especially exciting because it brings PARP inhibitors earlier into the treatment paradigm. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Exactly. And it is exciting to see the effect of PARP inhibitors in the earlier setting.  So Jeanny, now let's switch gears a bit to bladder cancer, which also saw several impactful studies. Could you tell us about Abstract 4502, an exploratory analysis from the EV-302 trial, which led to approval of enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab for our patients with newly diagnosed metastatic bladder cancer? So here, the authors looked at the outcomes in patients who achieved a confirmed complete response with EV plus pembrolizumab. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Sure, Neeraj. So, EV-302 demonstrated significant improvements in progression-free and overall survival for patients previously treated locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer, I'll just call it metastatic UC, as a frontline strategy, establishing EV, which is enfortumab vedotin, plus pembro, with pembrolizumab as standard of care in this setting.  So, this year at ASCO, Dr Shilpa Gupta presented this exploratory responder analysis from the phase 3 EV-302 trial. Among 886 randomized patients, about 30.4% of patients, this is about 133, in the EV+P arm, and 14.5% of the patients in the chemotherapy arm, achieved a confirmed complete response. They call it the CCR rates. So for patients who achieved this, median PFS was not reached with EV+P compared to 26.9 months with chemotherapy, with a hazard ratio of 0.36, translating to a 64% reduction in the risk of progression. Overall survival was also improved. So the median OS was not reached in either arm, but the hazard ratio favored the EV+P at 0.37, translating to a 63% reduction in the risk of death. The median duration of complete response was not reached with EV+P compared to 15.2 months with chemotherapy. And among those patients who had confirmed CRs at 24 months, 78% of patients with the EV+P arm remained progression-free, and around 95% of the patients were alive, compared to 54% of patients who were progression-free and 86% alive of the patients in the chemotherapy arm. Safety among responders were also consistent with prior reports. Grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events occurred in 62% of EV+P responders and 72% of chemotherapy responders. Most adverse events were managed with dose modifications, and importantly, no treatment-related deaths were reported among those who were able to achieve complete response.  So these findings further reinforce EV and pembro as the preferred first-line therapy for metastatic urothelial carcinoma, offering a higher likelihood of deep, durable responses with a fairly manageable safety profile. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Thank you for the great summary, Jeanny. These findings underscore the depth and durability of responses achievable with this combination and also suggest that achieving a response may be a surrogate for long-term benefit in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma.  So now, let's move to Abstract 4503, an exploratory ctDNA analysis from the NIAGARA trial, which evaluated perioperative durvalumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor, in muscle-invasive bladder cancer. So what can you tell us about this abstract? Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Absolutely, Neeraj. So, in NIAGARA, presented by Dr. Tom Powles, the addition of perioperative durvalumab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, gem/cis, significantly improved event-free survival, overall survival, and pathologic complete response in patients with cisplatin-eligible muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Recall that this led to the U.S. FDA approval of this treatment regimen on March 28, 2025.  So, a planned exploratory analysis evaluated the ctDNA dynamics and their association with clinical outcomes, which was the one presented recently at ASCO. So, the study found that the incidence of finding ctDNA positivity in these patients was about 57%. Following neoadjuvant treatment, this dropped to about 22%, with ctDNA clearance being more common in the durvalumab arm, about 41%, compared to the chemotherapy control arm of 31%. Notably, 97% of patients who remained ctDNA positive prior to surgery failed to achieve a pathologic CR. So, this indicates a strong association between ctDNA persistence and lack of tumor eradication. So, postoperatively, only about 9% of patients were ctDNA positive. So, importantly, durvalumab conferred an event-free survival benefit regardless of ctDNA status at both baseline and post-surgery. Among patients who were ctDNA positive at baseline, durvalumab led to a hazard ratio of 0.73 for EFS. So, this translates to a 27% reduction in the risk of disease recurrence, progression, or death compared to the control arm. In the post-surgical ctDNA-positive group, the disease-free survival was also improved with a hazard ratio of 0.49, translating to a 51% reduction in the risk of recurrence.  So, these findings underscore the prognostic value of ctDNA and suggest that durvalumab provides clinical benefit irrespective of molecular residual disease status. So, the data also supports that ctDNA is a promising biomarker for future personalized strategies in the perioperative treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Thank you, Jeanny. It is great to see that durvalumab is improving outcomes in these patients regardless of ctDNA status. However, based on these data, presence of ctDNA in our patients warrants a closer follow-up with imaging studies, because these patients with positive ctDNA seem to have a higher risk of recurrence. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: I agree, Neeraj.  Let's round out the bladder cancer discussion with Abstract 4518, which reported the interim results of SURE-02, which is a phase 2 study evaluating neoadjuvant sacituzumab govitecan plus pembrolizumab in cisplatin-ineligible muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Can you tell us more about this abstract, Neeraj? Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Sure, Jeanny. So, Dr Andrea Necchi presented interim results from the SURE-02 trial. This is a phase 2 study evaluating neoadjuvant sacituzumab govitecan plus pembrolizumab, followed by a response-adapted bladder-sparing treatment and adjuvant pembrolizumab in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer.  So, in this interim analysis, 40 patients were treated and 31 patients were evaluable for efficacy. So, the clinical complete response rate was 38.7%. All patients achieving clinical complete response underwent bladder-sparing approach with a repeat TURBT instead of radical cystectomy. Additionally, 51.6% of patients achieved excellent pathologic response with a T stage of 1 or less after neoadjuvant therapy. The treatment was well tolerated, with only 12.9% of patients experiencing grade 3 or higher adverse events without needing dose reduction of sacituzumab. Molecular profiling, interestingly, showed that clinical complete response correlated with luminal and genomically unstable subtypes, while high stromal gene expression was associated with lack of response.  These results suggest that sacituzumab plus pembrolizumab combination has promising activity in this setting, and tolerability, and along with other factors may potentially allow a bladder preservation approach in a substantial number of patients down the line. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Yeah, agree with you, Neeraj. And the findings are very provocative and support completing the full trial enrollment and further exploration of this strategy in muscle-invasive bladder cancer in order to improve and provide further bladder-sparing strategies. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Agree. So, let's now turn to the kidney cancer, starting with Abstract 4505, the final overall analysis from CheckMate-214 trial, which evaluated nivolumab plus ipilimumab, so dual checkpoint inhibition strategy, versus sunitinib in our patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Yeah, absolutely, Neeraj. So, the final 9-year analysis of the phase 3 CheckMate-214 trial confirms the long-term superiority of nivolumab and ipilimumab over sunitinib for first-line treatment of advanced metastatic renal cell carcinoma. So, this has a median follow-up of 9 years. Overall survival remains significantly improved with the combination. So, in the ITT patient population, the intention-to-treat, the hazard ratio for overall survival was 0.71. So, this translates to a 29% reduction in the risk of death. 31% of patients were alive at this 108-month follow-up compared to 20% only in those who got sunitinib. So, similar benefits were observed in the intermediate- and poor-risk groups with a hazard ratio of 0.69, and 30% versus 19% survival at 108 months.  Importantly, a delayed benefit was also seen in those favorable-risk patients. So, the hazard ratio for overall survival improved from 1.45 in the initial report and now at 0.8 at 9 years follow-up, with 35% of patients alive at 108 months compared to 22% in those who got sunitinib. Progression-free survival also favored the nivo-ipi arm across all risk groups. At 96 months, the probability of remaining progression-free was about 23% compared to 9% in the sunitinib arm in the ITT patient population, 25% versus 9% in the intermediate- and poor-risk patients, and 13% compared to 11% in the favorable-risk patients. Importantly, at 96 months, 48% of patients in the nivo-ipi responders remained in response compared to just 19% in those who got sunitinib. And in the favorable-risk group, 36% of patients who responded remained in response, although data were not available for sunitinib in this subgroup.  So, this data reinforces the use of nivolumab and ipilimumab as a durable and effective first-line effective strategy for standard of care across all risk groups for advanced renal cell carcinoma. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Thank you, Jeanny. And of course, since ipi-nivo data were presented, several other novel ICI-TKI combinations have emerged. And I'm really hoping to see very similar data with TKI-ICI combinations down the line. It is really important to note that we are not seeing any new safety signals with the ICI combinations or ICI-based therapies, which is very reassuring given the extended exposure. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Absolutely agree with you there, Neeraj.  Now, going on and moving on to Abstract 4514, which is the KEYNOTE-564 trial, and they reported on the 5-year outcomes of adjuvant pembrolizumab in clear cell RCC in patients who are at high risk for recurrence. Can you tell us a little bit more about this abstract, Neeraj? Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: Sure. So, the KEYNOTE-564 trial established pembrolizumab monotherapy as the first adjuvant regimen to significantly improve both disease-free survival and overall survival compared to placebo after surgery for patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma. So, Dr Naomi Haas presented the 5-year update from this landmark trial.  A total of 994 patients were randomized to receive either pembrolizumab or placebo. The median follow-up at the time of this analysis was approximately 70 months. Disease-free survival remained significantly improved with pembrolizumab. The median DFS was not reached with pembrolizumab compared to 68.3 months with placebo, with a hazard ratio of 0.71, translating to a 29% reduction in risk of recurrence. At 5 years, 60.9% of patients receiving pembrolizumab remained disease-free compared to 52.2% with placebo. Overall survival also favored pembrolizumab. The hazard ratio for OS was 0.66, translating to a 34% reduction in risk of death, with an estimated 5-year overall survival rate of 87.7% with pembrolizumab compared to 82.3% for placebo. Importantly, these benefits were consistent across all key subgroups, including patients with sarcomatoid features. In addition, no new serious treatment-related adverse events have been reported in the 3 years since treatment completion.  So, these long-term data confirm pembrolizumab as a durable and effective standard adjuvant therapy for patients with resected, high-risk clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: Thank you for that wonderful summary, Neeraj. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: That wraps up our kidney cancer highlights. Any closing thoughts, Jeanny, before we conclude? Dr. Jeanny Aragon-Ching: It's been so wonderful reviewing these abstracts with you, Neeraj. So, the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting showcased a lot of transformative data across GU cancers, from first-in-class bispecifics to long-term survival in RCC. And these findings are already shaping our clinical practices. Dr. Neeraj Agarwal: I agree. And we have covered a broad spectrum of innovations in GU cancers with strong clinical relevance.  So, thank you, Jeanny, for joining me today and sharing your insights.  And thank you to our listeners for joining us.

Vladimir Putin nu doar că nu a renunțat la a viza România, dar aceasta a devenit țintă directă, după ce Kremlinul a înțeles care este slăbiciunea de fond pe care o poate alimenta până la haos. Și nu poate fi o coincidență noua aliniere a lui George Simion la retorica rusească, scrie Magda Grădinaru în spotmedia.ro ”După scrutinul prezidențial care i-a alunecat Rusiei printre degete, manipularea și dezinformarea s-au industrializat, în sensul în care, pe de o parte, sunt executate mult mai profesionist și mai programatic și, pe de altă parte, sunt asumate fățiș de către Rusia și agenții ei.

O notă comună extrem de importantă este aceea că aceste narațiuni sunt declinate și rostogolite mai mult în grupurile și rețelele de români din diaspora, ceea ce arată strategia de consolidare a ceea ce istoricul Cosmin Popa numește „anti-România” și care a devenit una dintre direcțiile majore ale intervenției rusești în România”.

Cu o regulă nescrisă, o licitație din aprilie a fost câștigată de o firmă care a prezentat un proiect de drum, în loc de o lucrare hidrotehnică. Câștigătorul a ghicit cumva bugetul ascuns. O altă firmă mică a obținut un contract de 30 de milioane de lei prin încredințare directă, iar acum se discută de lucrări care ajung la aproape 90 de milioane de lei”.

They say that everything is bigger in Texas, and that certainly includes the personalities of the film photographers! Join Alex as he sits down with Nick LoPresti, if you haven't seen his work he certainly has a certain flare for humour, big jokes a bit of self-deprecation and a flare for not taking himself seriously. And you know, it's a refreshing take on a hobby that often takes itself way too seriously. I mean, we here at CCR can often lean into the serious side of things, but we also don't take ourselves too seriously. To find more of Nick's Work, check him out in the following places online!

Watch This Episode On YouTubeWith the baritones of Bono and U2 as the soundtrack, the globe-trotting world of Mary Robinson requires an epic film to depict her life, and thankfully, they found the director that can deliver just that in Irish filmmaker Aoife Kelleher.Aoife gave us the brilliant film MRS ROBINSON (2024), still on its festival run. MRS ROBINSON tells the inspirational life story of change-maker Mary Robinson: Ireland's first female President, a pioneering UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, and the successor of Nelson Mandela as Chair of The Elders.And if all that wasn't enough, check out her film, TESTIMONY (2025), also on the festival circuit. Not sure when Aoife has time to sleep but she found time to talk with me for the podcast, and I'm delighted to share that conversation with you.In this episode, Aoife and I discuss:her biographical statement that she seeks in her work to "tell hidden truths about Ireland and Irishness" -- what does that mean? what is an Irish film?;how did she get involved in filmmaking? "my parents were primary school principals and my dad was a politician so it was like, there were a lot of debates around these kind of themes at the dinner table";her switch from law to filmmaking -- "I'd had this work experience in a legal firm that had put me off the idea of pursuing law";what did she learn from her first documentary ONE MILLION DUBLINERS (2014) that she takes away for her current film?how did she get the opportunity to make MRS ROBINSON (2024), even with pitching against many other companies -- "you really can't stress [enough] how large Mary Robinson looms in Irish society";how she made it clear they weren't creating a puff piece documentary -- "from the earliest points in the pitching process, we made it clear that we would not be doing that, and that was what she wanted, too";how she was able to license U2 and other prominent musicians as part of this film (they were going to play "Fortunate Son" by CCR in a Vietnam scene...I think it worked out better with Bono!);the climate activism portion of the film and how it resonates now versus 30 years ago;how has documentary changed in the last ten years?;what's next for her? TESTIMONY (2025) is also on the festival circuit, which means she has TWO feature films on the circuit right nowAoife's Indie Film Highlight: BLUE ROAD: THE EDNA O'BRIEN STORY (2024) dir. by Sinead O'Shea; A WANT IN HER (2024) dir. by Myrid CartenLinks:MRS ROBINSON (2024) WebsiteFollow Screen Ireland on Instagram For More Info On Irish FilmmakersWatch This Episode On YouTubeSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

PSD, în căutarea doctrinei pierdute. Cum poate partidul să recâștige încrederea electoratului ANALIZĂ (Adevărul) - INTERVIU Important economist, autor a 50 de cărți: „Un dezastru pentru România. Adică lucrez și 65% dau la stat?” / Dă un exemplu de companie de stat „pe care politicienii au pus-o pe butuci” (HotNews) - România, pământ chinezesc. Branduri românești sunt aplicate pe produse realizate în China și apoi vândute în țara noastră. Expert: „Este un vid legislativ” (Libertatea) Elefantul din odaia nașterii guvernului și fereastra de timp care se închide (SpotMedia)De aproape o lună România are premier și guvern interimar cu puteri limitate. Nu va putea trimite pe 4 iunie la Bruxelles un plan fiscal adoptat de reducere a deficitului bugetar la 7%, o reformă fără de care urmează blocarea fondurilor europene.E posibil să fi obținut de la Comisia Europeană o mică amânare, până la final de iunie, pentru adoptarea planului prin OUG, altă soluție nu prea există, de către un guvern cu puteri depline.Ca să ne încadrăm măcar în această amânare, săptămâna aceasta ar trebui să avem cel puțin numele premierului și formarea guvernului să intre în linie dreaptă.Există un singur nume politic credibil, de la distanță, pentru cetățeni. Ilie Bolojan. Dar cel mai mare partid, indispensabil guvernării, este PSD. De el depinde însăși existența guvernului și în mod normal el ar putea pretinde legitim funcția.PSD nu o vrea în mod special, dar nici nu o poate da degeaba. Deci cere compensații. Și pe masă e zestre mare, de la șefia SRI, pe care președintele doar o propune, majoritatea o decide în Parlament, șefia Camerei Deputaților, a Senatului, dacă dl Bolojan devine premier, doua poziții de judecători CCR, ministerele cheie, șefiile radio și TV publice, Avocatul Poporului etc.Și, sigur, mai există o întrebare cheie. Poate Ilie Bolojan să aibă încredere în PSD, în solidaritatea acestuia la greu, chiar dacă obține un acord acoperitor al coaliției?Pe de o parte, PSD nu are decât o conducere provizorie până la congresul din august. Acum va semna Sorin Grindeanu, dar asta nu înseamnă că viitorul președinte va rămâne de acord cu înțelegerea și că o nouă formulă de conducere nu va încerca să o remodeleze sub presiunea răsturnării guvernului.Sunt multe întrebări sensibile în jurul cărora se învârt discuțiile acestor zile, dar ar fi  grav să mai treacă o săptămână cu tot felul de comisii și tatonări, fără desemnarea unui premier, comentează pe pagina SpotMedia jurnalista Ioana Ene Dogioiu.PSD, în căutarea doctrinei pierdute. Cum poate partidul să recâștige încrederea electoratului ANALIZĂ (Adevărul)Finalul ciclului electoral deschide în PSD o perioadă cu mize ce depășesc simpla schimbare de lideri. În toamnă, formațiunea politică va organiza un Congres pentru alegerea noii conduceri și redefinirea liniei ideologice. Cei care solicită schimbarea doctrinei au spus că Partidul Social Democrat trebuie să devină un partid conservator. Astfel, la următorul Congres al PSD partidul ar părăsi familia social-democrată europeană și ar putea să își schimbe și numele.În prezent, statulul PSD menționează că „Partidul Social Democrat este un partid de stânga modern şi progresist, un partid naţional cu vocaţie europeană, membru al Partidului Socialiştilor Europeni şi al Internaţionalei Socialiste, continuatorul tradiţiei social-democraţiei româneşti” și „promovează doctrina social-democrată”.Politologul Cristian Pârvulescu explică faptul că „stânga se centrează pe egalitate. Și la marile subiecte care sunt cruciale pentru egalitate, PSD este pe poziție ultraconservatoare cvasifascistă. De exemplu, problema căsătoriei între persoanele de același sex sau a parteneriatului civil. Problema avortului. (...) Problema migrației. Sunt foarte multe probleme pe care le abordează din perspectivă de dreapta. (...) în Europa centrală și de est nu s-au putut construi partidele de stânga, pentru că au fost decredibilizate de comuniști și pentru că nu prea a existat susținere”.Practic, PSD este un partid post-comunist dezideologizat, un partid care încearcă să ia voturi de peste tot, pentru care ideologia nu are nicio importanță, completează expertul pentru ziarul Adevărul.INTERVIU Important economist, autor a 50 de cărți: „Un dezastru pentru România. Adică lucrez și 65% dau la stat?” / Dă un exemplu de companie de stat „pe care politicienii au pus-o pe butuci” (HotNews)Directorul Institutului de Prognoză Economică din cadrul Academiei Române, Lucian Albu, reputat economist de dreapta și profesor, a discutat pentru publicul HotNews despre măsurile necesare României în dezbaterea echilibrării bugetului. Albu a atras atenția că una dintre cele vehiculate măsuri poate avea cele mai nefaste efecte pentru populație: impozitarea progresivă. „Cum am mai stimula forța de muncă să mai muncească?”, spune el. Economistul consideră că pe termen scurt creșterea TVA pentru celelate categorii care nu sunt în prezent la cota de 19% poate să fie o sursă „foarte sigură de a crește gradul de colectare și de a mai reduce din deficit”.România, pământ chinezesc. Branduri românești sunt aplicate pe produse realizate în China și apoi vândute în țara noastră. Expert: „Este un vid legislativ” (Libertatea)Tot mai multe companii autohtone comercializează în România produse cu propriile branduri și logouri, dar, de fapt, acestea sunt realizate în China. Acest fenomen se observă în special în industria auto și cea de electronice, dar este valabil și în altele, precum mobilă sau textile.Aceste produse sunt mai scumpe decât se vând în statul asiatic, câteodată costă chiar dublu sau triplu, sunt dar mai ieftine decât modelele europene sau americane similare comercializate în țara noastră. Libertatea vă prezintă cele mai întâlnite cazuri.Dacia Spring este, de fapt, un Dongfeng.Modelul electric al producătorului auto nu are nimic de-a face cu fabricile de la Mioveni. Acesta este produs în China de către un alt partener de afaceri al Renault, respectiv producătorul de stat Dongfeng. Însă în timp ce modelul chinez pornește cu un preț de la 5.500 de dolari pe Alibaba, echivalentul a 4.850 de euro, în România, grupul francez a trecut un preț de pornire de la 16.900 de euro în cea mai puțin dotată versiune, conform site-ului Dacia. Versiunea cea mai scumpă are un preț de listă de 19.900 de euro. Prețul prin programul Rabla pleacă de la 11.400 de euro.Sorin Mierlea, președinele asociației Infocons, care se ocupă cu protecția consumatorilor, spune că nu există legislație care să definească foarte clar ce înseamnă produs românesc.

“Would you rather have your nuts run over than listen to post-‘Toys in the Attic' Aerosmith?”Welcome to a riotous and unfiltered episode of The Ben and Skin Show on 97.1 The Eagle, where Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray dive headfirst into the ultimate rock ‘n' roll debate: Who's the greatest band for every letter of the alphabet?Fueled by Loudwire's “Rock and Roll Alphabet” list, this episode is a chaotic blend of music nerdery, generational hot takes, and laugh-out-loud moments that will have you yelling at your speakers—and maybe even questioning your own taste in music.

It's hard to believe that 2025 marks several significant anniversaries. First off, it's the 200th anniversary of photography as a whole, CCR is celebrating 10 years on the air, and we've reached episode 200! So the gang digs into a few topics on this show! If you remember, back in Episode 100, we talked about the oldest cameras in our collections, so in this episode, we talk about the newest cameras in our toolkits. We will also talk about all the latest films that have emerged in the 21st century and the developers! CCR is ten years old this year, and to celebrate, we're hosting a Photowalk in Brewery Tour on 12 July starting at 11 am from the Great Lakes Brewpub at 11 Lower Jarvis in Toronto, Ontario. You can find more details on the event signup page on Photowalk.me!

Conan is cracking us up, per usual. Sesame Street's future is in question. Is Nicole Kidman wearing a wig? Plus, the Diddy trial is continuing, and we aren't enjoying it.
