Operation Epic Fury, the decisive U.S.-led military campaign authorized by President Trump, has achieved striking early success by crippling Iran's nuclear infrastructure, ballistic missile stockpiles, air defenses, and key Revolutionary Guard command centers shortly after launch. Executed in close partnership with Israel — whose parallel Operation Roaring Lion delivered precision strikes, including the confirmed elimination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — the joint effort combined overwhelming American airpower, stealth bombers, and advanced drones with Israel's deep intelligence and targeted capabilities to rapidly overwhelm Iranian defenses. Supporters hail the operation's progress as a historic demonstration of peace through strength, delivering devastating blows to the regime's terror apparatus and nuclear ambitions ahead of schedule while minimizing prolonged escalation.

In this episode, I'm sharing something that came up in a recent coaching call inside the Sacred Sobriety Lab—because I know it's not just one woman's struggle.When family dynamics and stress collide, alcohol can start to feel like the fastest “off switch.” Not because we love alcohol for alcohol's sake, but because it offers relief. It works in the moment. And that's why our brains keep going back to it.We talk about:Why urges get louder when your nervous system is already activatedWhat “wine chatter” is and how it takes up so much mental real estateWhy white-knuckling makes it harder (not easier)Two grounding questions that change everything: What am I feeling? What do I need?How to prepare for family gatherings and stressful situations ahead of timeGentle ways to calm your nervous system without using alcohol as the off switchThis episode is especially for you if you've ever thought: “I don't even want to drink this much anymore… but it's taking up too much space in my head.”Drop us a Question or CommentIf you have ever...Struggled with the social pressures associated with alcohol use.Felt isolated, alone, and unsure of how to break the cycle.Experienced shame and frustration after drinking.Told yourself, “I'll never get this. It's no use.”Then this 5-Day Sacred Sobriety Kick Start is for you! Each day, you'll receive a short video with simple tasks to help you analyze your drinking habits with clarity.

Welcome to Season 6, Episode 8! What do you get when you mix Jamaican Reggae with Hawaiian music. This isn't the set-up for a joke, it's an episode on Jawaiian music, sometimes called Island Reggae. Today we talk about the origin of Jawaiian music, who some of the key musicians were, why it resonated with so many Hawaiians, and some of the small controversies around it.  We go more in-depth on three key musicians who have made a HUGE impact in Jawaiian music: Brother Noland, Fiji, and J-Boog. To get an idea of the spirit of Jawaiian, then look up their work!  In our recurring segment, we do some celebrations of the API in the 2026 Winter Olympics. Although we recorded before they were over, we wanted to celebrate what's happened so far for Asian Pacific athletes. We also take time to rant a bit about the really two-faced coverage of Eileen Gu, Chloe Kim, and Alysa Liu.  If you like what we do, please share, follow, and like us in your podcast directory of choice or on Instagram @AAHistory101.

In this candid Keep the Change update, I share what I've been up to over the past couple of weeks, from celebrating my 40th birthday with surprise parties and family getaways to a deeper appreciation of how both long and short life really is. I then dive into one of the biggest lessons from 20 years in business and investing: time is your greatest asset, and short term thinking leads to emotional, fear based decisions that can wipe people out. I reflect on my early Queensland property portfolio, what I learned from liquidating during my divorce, and why I have no regret, only perspective. We talk cycles too, why 2026 is the peak, why new entrants will see different short term results than long term holders, and why steady compounding over decades beats chasing quick wins. I also unpack why money and emotions don't mix, how I work with my own emotional authority, and why sowing seeds financially, physically, and personally requires patience. I share a behind the scenes look at my mindset work with Nathaly hypnosis, including a current challenge around believing in the permanence of wealth, plus what I've found genuinely effective for growth like the Demartini Method. I wrap with an update that I'm doing an AI course in February 2026, heading to Australia for a week, and will likely record more episodes soon, Also just a reminder to share the podcast and sign up for the summit below. 00:00 Welcome Back: Raw Audio, No Studio Needed01:20 Life Update: 40th Birthday Celebrations & Gratitude02:14 Life Is Long and Short: Time, Wealth, and Patience03:46 Lessons From Early Property Investing (and Letting Go of FOMO)04:57 Cycle Talk: Stop Chasing Quick Wins, Think Long-Term07:51 Money + Emotions Don't Mix: Sleep on Big Decisions09:22 Sowing Seeds: Why Growth (and Gains) Take Time10:09 Behind the Scenes: Self-Judgment, Mindset Work & Hypnosis12:48 Breaking the Pattern: Building Permanent Wealth (Ego Pushback)16:48 Coaches, Therapy, and What Actually Works (DiMartini Method)19:10 What's Next: AI Course, Australia Trip, and Final Notes Join the Women's Wealth Week Summit  Hypnosis with Nathaly | Oracle If you're after some more goodiesI have a FREE 5-Day Mindset Reset for you called Wealthy Women WinYou can also follow me on Instagram

This week we get festive with a look at Carnival. People tend to associate Carnival with places outside France, like Rio de Janeiro and Venice. Yet France boasts its own famous celebrations. Where do these festivals come from and what is their purpose? While carnival is celebrated all over the country, a few events stand out, like the elegant carnival of Nice in the south of France, or the wild and debaucherous carnival of Dunkirk in the north. Get ready to catch some fish – literally!

After a wonderful dinner with the King and his wife, the party hits the bar for some fun and celebration. And the past has a way of catching up to them.

February 18 | Sabbath and Celebrations (Exodus 23:10-19) by Christ Covenant

On this episode of Taste Buds with Deb, host Debra Eckerling speaks with Elaine Hall, founder of The Miracle Project and contributor to "A Different Spirit: Creating Meaningful B'nai Mitzvah for Children with Disabilities."    The Miracle Project is a fully inclusive theatre, film and social program for neurodivergent, autistic, disabled and non-disabled individuals. "A Different Spirit" addresses creating a similar, but different type of community experience.    The book, compiled by Howard Blas and Ilana Trachtman, offers guidance around celebrating b'nai mitzvah for youth who experience the world differently. It brings together educators, parents, and advocates — including Hall — to share models of ceremonies that are creative, accessible, and personal.    "I had created one of the first b'nai mitzvah programs for autistic youth a number of years ago, called Nes Gadol, through Vista Del Mar," she explains. "My son, Neal, was the first bar mitzvah, so they asked me to share my ideas."    Celebrations are often built around food, but Hall believes they should also be built around awareness. When planning a b'nai mitzvah or any large gathering, she encourages families to think beyond tradition.    "Each child is different; each person is different," she says. "Tune into what that child wants and what makes them happy … If the child loves French fries … even though that may not be typical at a celebration, make sure there's French fries on that table."   Inclusion is not just something to recognize during February for Jewish Disability Awareness and Inclusion Month (JDAIM); it is something to practice all year long.    "To be inclusive is really natural," Hall says. "It takes 60 seconds to be open, willing, and curious."   Elaine Hall talks about "A Different Spirit," and offers her recommendations for inclusion and belonging for B'nai Mitzvah, as well as everyday gatherings, and living a life of harmony. She also shares her recipe for papaya boats, which you can find at JewishJournal.com/podcasts.    Learn more about Elaine Hall at TheMiracleProject.org, get a copy of "A Different Spirit" and/or contact CoachE@CoachEProductions.com. For more from Taste Buds, subscribe on iTunes and YouTube, and follow @TheDEBMethod on social media.

The morning All Local update for Saturday February 14, 2026.

主播：Meimei（中国）+ Maelle（法国） 音乐：Can't take my eyes off you明天就是情人节（Valentine's Day）了。提到这个日子，我们总会联想到那些既浪漫（romantic）又让人心痒痒的瞬间——tingly feelings / get the butterflies（像过电一样小鹿乱撞的感觉）。今天我们就一起聊聊中西方文化中情人节和恋爱的那些有趣的小差异吧。01. Celebrations of Valentine's Day 情人节的庆祝仪式在很多电影和美剧中，西方的情人节都有特别隆重的仪式感：玫瑰、烛光晚餐和惊喜一个都不落。其实，在现实生活中，是有这样比较正式的celebration（庆祝方式），但也有比较simple and sweet的方式。有一些情侣并不外出（go out），而是选择宅家点外卖（order food），一起放松地（pretty chill）度过。It's more about intention (心意) than perfection (完美)。而且，现在很多人即使是单身（being single），也会把情人节这一天过得很充实：把它当作普通的一天（a normal day）度过；buy themselves flowers（给自己买花）；安排一场solo date（单人约会）。Love doesn't only have to come from a partner (爱不只来自伴侣，也可以来自自己).主播Meimei在美国时，还被邀请去参加Galentine's Day party——女生们的情人节派对（Valentine's Day with your girls）。派对现场通常是满满的粉红色与红心装饰（lots of pink and red heart decorations），少女感十足。Galentine's Day is a new trend these days.02. Pay for the Date 约会买单��在约会的时候，吃饭谁来付钱？It really depends on (取决于) the couple. 没有硬性规定（no fixed rule）。有些人会split the bill（AA制），有的couple也会take turns（轮流付），也有人会觉得应该由男生买单（man to pay）。对于主张AA制（split the bill）的女性来说，这代表着equality and independence——“有能力照顾好自己”的态度。对于希望男生付钱的一方，这与金钱无关。It's about effort (努力), intention (心意), and feeling cared for (被照顾的感觉).更重要的是双方是否就此沟通过、是否尊重彼此的感受。爱的本质不是谁来付钱，而是是否把对方放在心上（being thoughtful for the other person）。这是爱的表达。03. Love Confessions 爱意告白说到爱意表达，“我爱你”这三个字，在不同文化里分量大不相同。在外国，人们说“I love you”，会比较早。It isn't just a stereotype (固化印象). 美国有调查显示，约40%-50%的人会在交往三个月内（within the first three months of dating）说出“I love you”。法国人也类似，许多人约会三到四个月就会说“Je t'aime (我爱你)”，可以非常自然地expressing emotions out loud (大声说出自己的感受)。在许多西方国家，说“我爱你”并不自动等同于婚姻或一生一世的承诺（doesn't automatically mean marriage or lifelong commitment）。It's more like, “I have strong feelings for you right now”. 承载得更多是对情感的表达（emotionally loaded）。而在中文语境中，“我爱你”通常意味着自己和对方要一起考虑长远的未来了。在很多西方文化中，人们会将情感表达和长远规划分开（separate emotional expression from long-term planning）。Talking about feelings early是诚实的表现，而非轻率（seen as honest, not reckless）。你可以真诚地表达当下的感受，并不意味着要马上开启决定余生的计划（making a lifelong promise）。当然，即使不急于制定两人对于未来的计划，真挚的态度也是很重要的（intention really matters）。恋爱大概就是一个在不同的阶段寻找平衡的过程：在相处中不断认识对方（getting to know each other）、沉淀思考（reflecting）、分辨这个人是否能和自己走向未来（discerning whether this is someone you could see a future with）。在一段认真的关系中，你既可以充分的表达和享受爱意，但是也需要很多智慧和谨慎的考虑。It is a time of honesty and evaluation. 这些都会影响一个人说我爱你的时机。一些研究显示，在美国，男性往往比女性更早想说“我爱你”（约三个月左右），而女性会稍微等久一些。这或许也解释了英语中那些情感“缓冲区”表达（softer, in-between expressions）——“I really like you”、“I'm falling for you”，甚至更热烈的“I'm falling head over heels (一头栽进爱里，沦陷)”。04. Red Flags & Green Flags in Dating 恋爱信号：Red Flags & Green Flags在TikTok、Instagram和小红书，你可能都会频繁看到两个词：Red Flags和Green Flags。这是当代年轻人分析伴侣特质的新型表达方式。如果他根本不愿意试着和我的朋友hang out (逛街)，这就是一个classic (典型的) Red Flag。In Western dating culture, a red flag is more like a warning sign (提醒) - 你的交往对象在这一点上应该要“注意一下”了, not an accusation (不至于彻底否定对方).网上最常见的Red Flags包括：（1）已读不回、忽冷忽热→ ghosting (消失式分手) / breadcrumbing (画饼式暧昧)就像《格林童话》中的“汉赛尔与格蕾特”一样，沿路撒下面包屑，让对方以为有迹可循、有希望，却从不真正承诺（never really committing）。（2）边界感不清晰——刚认识就查岗、追问行程等等。网友总结得很直接：“让你内耗的关系，就是Red Flags。”（If it makes you uncomfortable, it counts.）现在大家也很爱夸Green Flags。（1）当下最受追捧的Green Flag之一就是clear communication（表达清晰）。比如对方即使忙不能马上回复，也会说一句：“I'm busy today, but I'll text you later.”（2）最近另一个被反复提到的词是emotional stability（情绪稳定）。西方社交媒体甚至调侃：情绪稳定是新的“高个子（being tall）”。这些概念如今在中西方同步流行，只是表述方式不同，但内核（core）一致：每个人都渴望被尊重、被理解、被稳稳地接住。所以，Red Flags不是用来给别人打分的，更像是帮我们更了解自己需要什么，不需要什么；Green Flags也帮助我们去认识健康的关系和伴侣。不同文化，对爱的表达方式千差万别。There's no single “right” way to love. 情人节可以热闹隆重，也可以安静放松；表达爱意需要慎重，也需要真诚。What matters most is understanding - of yourself and of others.无论你是和爱的人一起过情人节、和朋友相聚，还是一个人享受独处，希望这一天都能遇见让你心安的爱。欢迎大家在评论区分享：How do you spend Valentine's Day? 你是怎么过情人节的呢？

February 13 is World Radio Day, which celebrates the radio as a way of educating people, providing information, and promoting freedom of expression across cultures. - 13 ਫਰਵਰੀ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਸ਼ਵ ਰੇਡੀਓ ਦਿਵਸ ਮਨਾਇਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ। 1946 ਇਸ ਤਰੀਖ਼ ਨੂੰ ਹੀ ਸੰਯੁਕਤ ਰਾਸ਼ਟਰ (United Nations) ਦੀ ਅੰਤਰਰਾਸ਼ਟਰੀ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਰਣ ਸੇਵਾ ਸਥਾਪਿਤ ਹੋਈ ਸੀ। ਹਰ ਸਾਲ ਇਸ ਦਿਨ ਨੂੰ ਰੇਡੀਓ ਜ਼ਰੀਏ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸਿੱਖਿਅਤ ਕਰਨ, ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ ਪ੍ਰਦਾਨ ਕਰਨ ਅਤੇ ਸਭਿਆਚਾਰਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਪ੍ਰਗਟਾਵੇ ਦੀ ਆਜ਼ਾਦੀ ਨੂੰ ਉਤਸ਼ਾਹਿਤ ਕਰਨ ਦੇ ਇੱਕ ਤਰੀਕੇ ਵਜੋਂ ਮਨਾਉਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਐਸ ਬੀ ਐਸ ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਦੇ ਇਸ ਪੌਡਕਾਸਟ ਰਾਹੀਂ ਸੁਣੋ, ਰੇਡੀਓ ਦਿਵਸ ਦਾ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ, ਮਹੱਤ ਅਤੇ ਇਸਨੂੰ ਮਨਾਏ ਜਾਣ ਦੇ ਤਰੀਕਿਆਂ ਬਾਰੇ

Welcome back to another episode of Moment of Silence — where Valentine's Day is less roses and more reality checks. We start gently with “Do you even believe in love?” and then we get into couple influencers monetising their fights, decode soft launches, hard launches, and breakup triangles. You've heard of Veer Pahariya, Tara Sutaria, and AP Dhillon — but what really goes wrong? We talk power couples minting money, why dating a cricketer suddenly feels strategic, and whether modern relationships are just brand collaborations with feelings attached.

The Show Must Go On Despite battling the flu for over 10 days, Niki Foster, President of the Front Royal Warren County Chamber of Commerce, refused to miss another episode of The Valley Today. Host Janet Michael awarded her friend the "perseverance award of the year" as they settled in for a conversation about recent community celebrations and upcoming events that have the chamber buzzing with unprecedented excitement. Stargazers Gala Honors Local Leaders The chamber recently hosted its Stargazers Gala, marking a triumphant return to annual dinner awards after a COVID-induced hiatus. The event brought together community members in a mix of elegant cocktail attire and casual work uniforms, creating an inclusive atmosphere that reflected the chamber's welcoming spirit. Among the evening's honorees, Tana Hoffman received Citizen of the Year recognition, while Mayor Lori Cockrell earned the Education Contributor of the Year award. Cockrell, who celebrates 36 years in the public school system before retiring this year, received a particularly touching nomination from a former student who described how the educator followed her journey from elementary school through higher education. Furthermore, the awards recognized Blue Ridge Opportunities as Nonprofit of the Year and entrepreneur Shelly Cook for her community-building efforts. The chamber also introduced a new "Community Spark Plug" award, honoring Jen Avery and Rob McDougall for their energizing presence in Front Royal. Small and Large Businesses Shine In a move that Foster and Michael both celebrated, the chamber now splits business recognition into two categories. On Cue Sports Bar and Grill claimed Small Business of the Year honors, while Rappahannock Electric Cooperative took home the Large Business award. This division allows the chamber to acknowledge that larger businesses often contribute through financial donations, whereas smaller operations typically give their time—both equally valuable yet difficult to compare. Entertainment Elevates the Experience Adding to the evening's magic, literally, the chamber brought in entertainer Chris Michael. Board member Tina Tolliver had originally spotted Michael at a pre-COVID event and finally made her vision a reality five years later. Meanwhile, Brad Minardi from Artsii transformed the venue with spectacular uplighting effects that perfectly complemented the stargazer theme. Wine Festival Registration Breaks Records Shifting to future events, Niki shared staggering news about the May Wine and Craft Festival. By early February, the chamber had already secured 17 wineries—a number they typically reach just before the event itself. Even more impressive, approximately half of these participants are new to the festival, offering attendees fresh tasting opportunities alongside their beloved regulars. Additionally, food vendor spots have nearly sold out, with only three spaces remaining. This early momentum represents an unprecedented shift in the festival's typical timeline. Foster attributes the surge partly to the chamber's strategy of limiting food vendors to encourage festival-goers to support Main Street restaurants and coffee shops. The festival, scheduled for the third Saturday in May, expects around 200 total vendors including wineries, crafters, and commercial exhibitors. All participating wineries hail from across Virginia, from the Eastern Shore to Charlottesville, with local meaderies Honey and Hops and Saga also returning. Bowling for Business and Community Before the wine flows in May, the chamber invites the community to its popular bowling event in March. These twice-yearly gatherings at Rick Novak's bowling alley consistently sell out, offering a low-key opportunity for team building, employee appreciation, or simply an evening out with friends. The event takes on added significance this year as Novak's movie theater recently suffered fire damage and remains closed. Supporting the bowling alley directly helps a local business owner navigate challenging times. Interested participants can register online through the chamber's website or Facebook event page, though Janet jokingly suggested avoiding in-person registration to spare people from Niki's lingering cough. Celebrating Milestones and Looking Ahead Before wrapping up, Niki highlighted Jenneration Salon's 20th anniversary celebration on February 12th. Owner Jen Nicholson, who relocated from the Martin Shopping Center to her own renovated building on Warren Avenue two years ago, will host a ribbon-cutting at 5:30pm followed by refreshments. Looking to February 24th, the chamber's Business After Hours event will showcase CSM Aesthetics at Blake & Co Hair Spa. Janet marveled at how much the beauty industry has evolved, noting that salons now offer services far beyond traditional cuts and color—including Botox, permanent makeup, and various aesthetic treatments. These networking events remain open to non-members, allowing curious community members to test-drive chamber involvement before committing to membership. A Testament to Community Spirit Throughout the conversation, both women emphasized the difficulty of selecting award winners when so many individuals and organizations deserve recognition. Yet this challenge itself speaks to Front Royal's vibrant business community and the chamber's role in celebrating those who make it thrive. As Foster battles through her illness to share these updates, she embodies the very perseverance and community dedication that the chamber honors. For more information about upcoming events and committee opportunities, community members can visit frontroyalchamber.com or follow the organization on social media.

Text comments and questions here!Welcome to Season 6! I'm thrilled to continue this journey to increase laughter and joy in my life and in yours. I hope you laugh every time you listen, even when life seems too hard.  This month has been some kind of something! I was sick for a few days and lately, I've been a bit anxious about these winter weather conditions. I feel like I've been tested, and I think I passed. I found levity in these experiences. You can find levity in challenging experiences, too. It's January, a time for beginnings. I want to my relationships to have a fresh and bright start (or refresh if needed). So, I share what I won't be doing in 2026! I'm tickled just thinking about it. I touch on three things: wings, brunch, and theme parties. Listen and let me know if you can relate and share what's on your list. I can't wait to learn what you're not doing in 2026! Laughing Matters features the end-of-the-month highlights and usually includes four segments: celebrations, libation of the month, rants, and questions and answers. Celebrations are about intentionally forming a habit of noticing and acknowledging the good within and around you. Libation of the month is based on whatever I fancy or feel inspired by at the time. I share step-by-step instructions and you can mix right along with me. Rants or stories are about anything I find funny and want to share. Ask me a question. It might be featured in a future episode.Special Guest:MomLibation of the Month:Sake G and TBased on Sake Hoji Chai recipe from sake-talk.com 100 mL Water100 mL Non-Dairy Milk*1 Tsp Brown Sugar1 Tsp Whole Leaf Green Tea*1 - 2 Tsp SakeDash of Cinnamon Dash of CardamonServe in your favorite tea cupMentions: DisneyNetflixDragon Well by Golden Moon TeaPure Dusk Junmai Daiginjo SakeConnect with Me: Subscribe * Follow * Rate * CommentClick the link at the top to send a text nowReach out on Bluesky @laughingnotesSee me on Instagram Email me at laughsandlibs@gmail.comVisit laughterandlibations.com
