What does it mean for business leaders to not just keep their heads down—but lift their chins up? In this episode, we explore how CEOs and entrepreneurs can step into authentic leadership that unites, inspires, and drives change. In this thought-provoking conversation, we sit down with Neil Ghosh, President of MGR Professional Services and author of Do More Good. With a career spanning government, nonprofit, and for-profit sectors, Neil has reinvented himself as a bridge builder and champion of authentic business leadership. Together, we unpack the unique role businesses play in today's culture and governance, and why trust, empathy, and purpose are no longer “nice to haves” but essential pillars of leadership. Neil also shares powerful insights from his book, which features stories of inspiring leaders and provides actionable steps for anyone who wants to move beyond inspiration to meaningful action. From cultivating moral leadership to embedding corporate social responsibility into a company's DNA, this episode challenges us all to consider what kind of citizen—corporate and personal—we want to be. Here are highlights: -The Trust Recession: Why Neil calls this moment in history a “trust recession”—and why business leaders are now more trusted than governments and media. -Shifts in the Workforce: The three major shifts reshaping the workforce: cultural diversity, generational expectations, and the demand for moral leadership. -Navigating Polarization: How leaders can unite their teams without diluting core values in today's divisive climate. -CSR as Strategy, Not Charity: Why doing good isn't just a feel-good exercise—it's good business, and how companies can integrate CSR into their DNA. -Purpose, Empathy, and Action: The pillars of Neil's book Do More Good and how small steps can drive outsized impact. About the guest: Neil Ghosh is a seasoned executive whose expertise spans the nonprofit, government, philanthropic, and private sectors. His book, Do More Good, showcases some of the most captivating individuals in modern history—people he has met and interacted with on his mission to inspire meaningful change. With 30+ years of experience, Neil has successfully launched and scaled both nonprofit and for-profit ventures, building teams, business models, partnerships, and strategies to drive impact and support vulnerable populations in more than 50 countries.

[AUTOPROMOCJA] Pełnej wersji podcastu posłuchasz w aplikacji Onet Audio. W najnowszym odcinku podcastu Raport Międzynarodowy Zbigniew Parafianowicz i Witold Jurasz komentują wydarzenia z nocy z 9 na 10 września. Polska przestrzeń powietrzna została naruszona przez rosyjskie drony bojowe. Zbyszek Parafianowicz podkreśla, że nie był to przypadek, lecz świadoma prowokacja – element tzw. operacji „szaszłyki”, czyli grillowania wschodniej flanki NATO. Jej celem jest permanentne utrzymywanie państw graniczących z Rosją i Białorusią w stanie niepewności, bez przekraczania progu otwartej wojny. Zdaniem Witolda Jurasza odpowiedzią musi być skuteczne i bezwzględne zestrzeliwanie jednostek rosyjskich - zarówno dronów, jak i potencjalnie śmigłowców - które mogłyby zapuszczać się w naszą przestrzeń powietrzną, szczególnie w czasie planowanych manewrów Zapad. Prowadzący przypominają incydent z 2015 roku, gdy Turcja zestrzeliła rosyjski bombowiec Su-24, jako prawidłowy tryb reagowania na tego typy sytuacje. Jednocześnie przestrzegają przed strzelaniem „na ślepo” do niezweryfikowanych jednostek latających. Przypadkowe zestrzelenie samolotu cywilnego mogłoby posłużyć Moskwie do propagandowej narracji o „polskich psychopatach” atakujących cywilów. W rozmowie pojawia się również pytanie o to, jak powinniśmy odpowiedzieć Rosji poza doraźnym reagowaniem. Obok działań militarnych Polska i sojusznicy mogliby wykorzystać sankcje, wydalenia dyplomatów czy blokowanie ruchu towarowego. Zamknięcie przejść granicznych z Białorusią jest już poważnym ciosem nie tylko dla Mińska, lecz także dla interesów Chin, których handel w dużej mierze przebiega tą trasą. Witold Jurasz proponuje, by NATO przejęło inicjatywę i zaczęło generowało realne koszty dla Moskwy, także poprzez kreatywne i trudne do udowodnienia działania – od cyberataków po użycie dronów w obwodzie kaliningradzkim. Parafianowicz podchodzi do tego ostrożniej, wskazując, że już samo doprecyzowanie sankcji i rozmieszczanie odpowiedniego uzbrojenia na wschodniej flance może być bolesnym i adekwatnym rozwiązaniem. Obaj komentatorzy podkreślają, że Rosja nieprzypadkowo eskaluje napięcie – odrzuciła ofertę Donalda Trumpa złożoną w połowie sierpnia dotyczącą współpracy w dziedzinie energetyki za wypracowanie rozejmu czy też zawieszenia broni na Ukrainie. Co więcej, Moskwa zacieśnia już i tak bardzo bliską współpracę z Chinami. To wymaga w końcu jasnej odpowiedzi ze strony NATO i Stanów Zjednoczonych, których reakcja – zdaniem Jurasza – jest wciąż zbyt powściągliwa. Mimo udziału sojuszników, jak choćby holenderskich myśliwców pomagających w strącaniu dronów, większość obowiązków obronnych spada dziś na Polskę. Kończy się czas złudzeń, że bezpieczeństwo zagwarantują „tanie polisy ubezpieczeniowe” w postaci samego sojuszu z Ameryką. Według Zbigniewa Parafianowicza Polska musi wypracować własną specjalizację w odpieraniu prowokacji – na granicy, w powietrzu i na Bałtyku – bo era naiwności i „farmazonów” dobiegła końca.
Aujourd'hui, nous allons évoquer le parcours d'une figure aussi brillante que sulfureuse : Jacques Benoist-Méchin (1901-1983), historien, musicologue, journaliste, et ministre du régime de Vichy. Intellectuel polyglotte fasciné par l'Allemagne et le monde arabe, ses écrits sont restés célèbres, comme son Histoire de l'armée allemande et la série de biographies réunies sous le titre Le Rêve le plus long de l'histoire. Son engagement ultra-collaborationniste sous l'Occupation lui valut une condamnation à mort en 1947, avant d'être gracié et de devenir, pendant plusieurs décennies, le proche conseiller de leaders du monde arabe et de la diplomatie française. Pour répondre évoquer la vie et l'œuvre de Jacques Benoist-Méchin, je reçois Antoine Neufman.
2B Bolder Podcast : Career Insights for the Next Generation of Women in Business & Tech
Meet Cassandra Chin, a remarkable young woman who began teaching tech workshops internationally at just 13 years old. Now 22, she's authored "Raising Young Coders," speaks at global tech conferences, and champions inclusivity in the technology field with wisdom beyond her years.Cassandra shares her unconventional journey into tech, debunking the myth that coding requires strong math skills. "Programming is more about logic and creativity," she explains, offering a refreshing perspective that could open doors for creative minds hesitant to explore coding. Her approach focuses on making technology fun and accessible rather than intimidating—a philosophy that shines through in her book's projects like "Squishy Circuits," where children create art with conductive Play-Doh and LEDs.What stands out most is Cassandra's approach to navigating male-dominated tech spaces. When asked how she maintains confidence at conferences where women are underrepresented, her strategy is brilliantly simple: "I start by introducing myself and telling them my biggest accomplishment, and then after that we're equals." This straightforward method of establishing credibility offers valuable wisdom for women of all ages. Cassandra's parting advice for parents? "Give your kids an opportunity to try technology without biases. Just let them experience it and decide if they like it." For anyone interested in making technology more inclusive—especially for young girls—this conversation provides both inspiration and practical strategies to break down barriers in tech education.Listen now to hear Cassandra's full story, and use her special discount code for 20% off her book "Raising Young Coders."

One of the big topics at the conference this summer was the use of large language models in the research process, especially in qualitative studies. We expand this discussion by asking: can qualitative research be automated—or augmented? Yes and no. Some of the advantages LLMs bring to the table are hard to ignore. LLMs can act as critical reviewers, as a consistency checker, as a provider of alternative perspectives on unstructured data, or to break path dependencies in the process of data analysis. They can also help find interesting outcomes that qualitative insights could explain. At the same time, the use of LLMs comes with thorny pitfalls. We know they are unreliable and hallucinate. And the output they create is… average at best. So if you use LLMs, make sure you are not using it for automation—do not lose touch with your craft or your data. Whatever tool you use, make sure you remain a virtuous scholar. Episode reading list Noblit, G. W., & Hare, R. D. (1988). Meta-Ethnography: Synthesising Qualitative Studies. Sage. Recker, J. (2021).

Riding Shotgun With Charlie #237 Erica Chin WOMA's Amateurs & Experts Podcast Heading into SHOT Show season last year, I got an email from someone I didn't know asking me to be on their show at SHOT. Of course, I'm going to say yes. The email was from Erica Chin. She's the co-host of the Women's Outdoor Media Association's podcast called Amateurs & Experts. The other host is Jess Andrich.They talk to people in the firearm and hunting, fishing, outdoor community. We recorded the show at the Otis Technology booth, where they host a number of podcasts, including the shows Matt Mallory and I did during SHOT 2025. Since becoming friends with the ladies, we keep in touch. Erica said she was coming to NRA AM in Atlanta and I said we should film a show despite Jess not being there. She is a SHOT pro, but this was her first time at NRA AM. We actually started the day off by Erica calling me and going to an award ceremony, where Anne Mauro (RSWC #146) received an award for the NRA Women's Golden Bullseye Award for “Industry Woman of the Year.” Erica was also able to meet with her show's sponsors. Growing up in a household run by her father who was a police officer, she was surrounded by firearms, hunting, and the shooting sports. Yet he didn't ask her to join him at the range. The first time she shot was in training to be a probation officer. The training started off with a week of shooting and handling. After the initial training, it went to quarterly range sessions with one magazine for them to shoot. After being married, she found out her husband was into shooting and wanted to get back into it. This move slowly got her into shooting competitions, but mostly it was some social time for her, she wasn't concerned with her score. Her husband said she was more concerned with clothes and snacks at the range and suggested, maybe, she should practice as much as she's concerned about those items. Then he signed her up for 3-gun match at Babes With Bullets, which is hosted with Deb Ferns, (RSWC #204) and Kay and Jerry Miculek. Yeah, she went right to the top tier of competitive shooting! The first 3-gun match set her on a new trajectory. She became a range safety officer just to be able to help at Babe With Bullets in the future. Being around Deb “sucks you in” and Erica went in with both feet. She took a trip from Utah to Montana and went off grid for a while. Eventually, she realized and remembered she has responsibilities at home with a family and she's been more selective of the events she goes to. Erica shares some hunting stories and experiences she's had with BWB & WOMA. She's not afraid to get into the field dressing of the beasts she harvests. With an interest in new things to explore, she and Jess have the gift of gab and were a natural to host the WOMA podcast. They're both fun, up for new adventures, and great with everyone. They've got great chemistry together. They settled with Amateurs & Experts for the name of the podcast because they talk with all kinds of experts in the outdoor community and want to reach the amateurs. Their second season of pod is dropping now, so find them on your favorite podcast outlets. Besides being an RSO with BWB, and a probation officer, she's trained to drive Code 3, which means she can drive with lights and sirens. Being a person who enjoys expanding her horizon, she became a massage therapist so she could give massages at BWB. She's also taken classes for funeral science. There's a lot going on with her! Favorite quotes: “Once you meet Deb Ferns, you drink the Kool-Aid.” “As a female it's tough to find places where we fit into hunting, where we fit into shooting sports, where we fit into fishing, and WOMA really encourages women to get out there.” “I went to school for funeral science.” “The last thing you can give someone is dignity in their death.” WOMA https://www.thewoma.org/ WOMA Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheWOMA/ WOMA Instagram https://www.instagram.com/womensoutdoormediaassociation/ WOMA LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-woma/ WOMA X https://x.com/WOMA_the Amateurs & Experts Podcast https://www.thewoma.org/podcast Amateurs & Experts Podcast Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/7yZEor7j1SFBuB9LhWWHVm Babes With Bullets Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BabesWithBullets/ WOMA's She Never Quit Charity https://www.thewoma.org/snq Second Amendment Foundation https://secure.anedot.com/saf/donate?sc=RidingShotgun Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms https://www.ccrkba.org/ Please support the Riding Shotgun With Charlie sponsors and supporters.

I każdy sprawia, że krok po kroczku wizerunek Chin jest coraz bardziej oswajany. A na horyzoncie czai się kolejny wielki trend. Są to - uwaga - short dramy, czyli jednominutowe odcinki seriali. W 2024 r. short dramy tylko w Chinach przekroczyły wartość 6,9 mld dol., przy okazji tworząc ok. 600 000 miejsc pracy. I powoli zmierzają także do Europy. Czy to działa? A jakże! Chiny w tym roku wskoczyły na 2. miejsce na globalnej liście soft power. Ustępują im wyłącznie Stany Zjednoczone. Zatem jakie efekty odnosi chińska miękka siła? Czy jest zjadliwa dla każdego?

Geoff and Marie's Good Life: Part 9Lucy's TurnGeoff finally gets more quality time with Lucy.Based on posts by Only In My Mind, in 15 parts. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.I was bringing in the bedsheets from the washing line when my lovelies got home. Colin was inside doing his art homework alone as I'm afraid that art isn't my forté. From the way Angie bounced up the path like a tall, supple Tigger, I assumed that their mission had been successful. Marie followed behind at a more stately pace, but I could tell by her expression that she was pleased."Geoff! It's perfect," Angie enthused. "Show him, Marie!"Marie finally caught up with our friend. "She's not wrong, Geoffrey," she admitted. "The moment we saw it, we knew that was the one." She felt into her handbag and took out a small square box."Just like you and me then," I reminded her, kissing the top of her head."You'll get anywhere saying things like that, you smooth devil," my wife smiled as she showed me our purchase."So what happens now?" I asked. It appeared that they were in the dark too. Did we give her it now, like an engagement ring? Or wait until the ceremony, like a wedding ring?I decided. I took Angie's left hand and dropped to one knee. "Angela, you have added a new thread to the tapestry of our lives. Will you agree to be my betrothed?"Marie was quick to respond. She took her friend's hand from me and turned Angie towards her. "Angela, you have been my closest friend for decades, will you now be my betrothed?""Oh! God! Yes! Thank you. I love you both so much," wailed Angie, hopping up and down in floods of happy tears.Marie held out the ring they had chosen and bought together and together my wife and I slipped it onto the fourth finger of Angie's left hand. As I'd suggested, they had chosen something called a Russian Ring, made of three interwoven strands of different shades of gold. It was perfect. I resolved to get my little Mediterranean goddess a matching necklace.There was the sound of applause from behind us and we turned, rather startled, truth to be told, to find Colin beaming at us, the drawing in his hand forgotten."I think you're supposed to kiss her now, Grandma, Grandad," he observed. We couldn't fault his grasp of etiquette so we did; very chastely and properly with no tongues."Mum's gonna go proper monkey poo this time," he predicted, quite astutely. "Glad I'm not the one that has to tell her." He smiled, congratulated us all and then asked for our opinions of his drawing. We were all impressed, both by his artwork and his attitude and told him so. He disappeared happily back inside to put his drawing safely in his bag."He's not wrong about Linda," I pointed out. "I was thinking about this while I was running and I think I should take her out for tea tomorrow and tell her about our, er; does 'new situation' sound about right?""Thank God!" Marie breathed a sigh of relief. "I don't think she'd accept this updated version of 'the talk' from me. Anyway, I did the one about boys, boobs and periods, now it's your turn."I went and switched the oven on and chose a bottle of wine as I waited for it to reach 180°C. I'd picked up a bottle of Ribeiro in our local supermarket and a Spanish white seemed to fit nicely with the ingredients so I parked it in the fridge to chill.I got the tray with the onions, tomatoes, garlic cloves and potatoes and glugged over a little olive oil before putting it all in the oven for twenty minutes and then went off to see my girls. Angie had calmed down and they were trying to decide her outfit for our ceremony."What about Padme's rainbow dress?" I suggested. I'd had nothing urgent after lunch and had done some research. Angie gave me a long appraising look and typed 'padme rainbow' into the search engine on her phone. She selected 'images' and then studied the screen intently for longer than I expected. Still silent, she showed Marie the dress. "He's a clever old sod, really, isn't he?" My beloved observed. "That's beautiful, and it's perfect for your body shape."Angie agreed. "That's it. I was considering Rey's outfit but this is better. This is the one I want.""You can actually buy these on-line," I offered."Not a chance!" Retorted Angie. Marie looked as puzzled as me at how emphatic Angie's response was. "I'm sure that some are okay," Angie conceded. "But I've seen too many instances on Facebook where the seller shows an image of the original but what actually arrives looks like it was sewn in the dark from old curtains by an arthritic chimp. I want it to look just like that picture.""But at least you'll know how much it is going to cost, dear," Marie said. "Who knows how much your student friends will have to pay to find a fabric like that?""Don't care," Said a defiant Angie. "I can afford whatever I want and it's my money after all."Marie leaned in for a kiss. "We'll contribute too. We always intended to.""No. Thank you, but no." Angie was adamant. "You bought me that beautiful ring. I realize that it would be rude to offer to pay for that, but everything else; everything," she stressed that last word, "is on me."My wife and I shared another look of surprise at our friend's determined outburst. "But Ange," Marie began."Everything, Marie. You've been so kind to me for so long. And these last few weeks;” She teared up again. "You really don't know, do you?"I shrugged. We were into Donald Rumsfeld territory here with 'unknown unknowns' and I didn't think that this was the moment to dive down that particular rabbit hole."You know that apartment I live in?" Angie asked. We did. It was in a massive, tastefully converted, Victorian building near the university. "Don't you think it's rather large and expensive for just one person?" We both just did some head wobbles, shoulder shakes and comme ci, comme ça, hand gestures to indicate that we had wondered but."It's not that expensive," she continued, eyes sparkling with mischief. "Not for me, anyway. You see." She paused for effect. "I own the entire building. A lettings management company deals with renting the other apartments; I just live off the income. I only do the consultancy work for you know who," she tapped the side of her nose. "to stop me getting bored and my brain shutting down." She was winding me up because she knew I suspected that she was some kind of spook."Don't worry about the cost," she said cheerfully. "I can afford it. Last time I checked I had over two million pounds just in my savings accounts."She looked gleefully at the expressions on our faces. "And, once we're officially joined, I'm changing my will to leave it all to you and your kids. Colin certainly won't need a student loan when he goes to Uni.""Angie, darling. There's no need," Marie protested."Who else then?" Angie challenged her. "You two are the closest I've had to a family since I ditched that last useless waste of DNA. I've had more fun, romance, sex and affection from you two lunatics in the last six weeks than from both my husbands combined over two decades."Marie looked helplessly at me. I knew exactly what to do. I leaned forward. "Angie?" I said softly, taking her hand in mine."Yes, Geoff?" She replied, returning my loving gaze."Please can I have an Aston Martin DB12?"We collapsed in each other's arms in fits of giggles. Marie swiped me fondly across the head. "You nutcase. Get back in the kitchen and get our tea ready."I checked, and the potatoes were starting to cook, so I laid the chicken and chorizo slices on top, added the herbs and spices and put the tray back in the oven. "Alexa, set a timer for twenty minutes." Then I went off in search of Colin.I told him that I needed a private chat with his mum. "You think?" Was his smart-ass response. Sometimes he makes me so proud.Anyway, he texted one of his friends and persuaded her to wangle an invite to go over straight from school the following evening to do their homework together. Linda would collect him around seven."So Colin. Mia. Is she nice?""Yes Grandad. She's nice. No Grandad, she's not my girlfriend. We're only thirteen but we get on just fine as friends." Hell. The kid's more mature than half of the lads I used to play rugby with.We chatted some more until Alexa's alarm went off and I hit the kitchen again. Dropped the sliced peppers into the tray, a good mix up and back in for the last twenty minutes.I was starting to set the table when Marie and Angie came in to take over and chased me away to watch the news on TV. Angie had already taken her ring off and had decided to keep it in its box until they were with their friends. Then Marie intended to propose again in front of them all. It sounded lovely and I would have liked to see it, but I'd agreed that this was their moment.Linda arrived on time and about ten minutes later we sat down to eat. She'd called to collect a baguette on the way home as I'd asked and we used it to mop up the juices from our plates. The wine paired well; even Colin agreed, though he only got a sip of his mum's. Perhaps, when he's sixteen, Linda will let him have a glass with his meals.After we'd finished, the ladies declared that they would clear the table as I'd done all of the cooking. It had hardly been a chore but I wasn't about to argue. Instead, I went and asked Colin if he was okay with Aunty Angie being, well, betrothed to Grandma and Grandad.He thought carefully for a while. "Is anyone going to get hurt?"It was a reasonable question. "I hope not. But it's always possible. Even two people who love each other can eventually drift apart.""But you're all happy now?" He persisted. "You all want this?""Yes. All of us." I confirmed."What will I call her then?" He asked.That hadn't occurred to me. "Whatever you and Angie decide. That seems the fairest to me."His face lit up. "When you've told mum, I'm going to ask Aunty Angie if I can call her; Grangie." He announced triumphantly. There were still tears of laughter streaming down my face when the women joined us five minutes later. They all looked suspiciously at the pair of us."You had to be there," I told them, then we cracked up again.Before Linda and Colin left I told her that, as Colin had a homework date the following day, earning a glare from him, I'd treat her to a meal after work as we'd both be on our own. I suggested a Thai in town and we agreed to meet there at five fifteen. She looked warily at me, but I'd been practicing my innocent expression and gave nothing away. Certainly, nothing had been said that evening to suggest there was a problem.Angie saw them off with us and then said her own goodbyes. I copped a feel of her bum as we kissed, well, we're engaged now, or something. Marie must have shared my sentiment only she went for a tit. I slapped her hand gently. "Enough of that. She'll never get away if you start on her nipples." They both reluctantly agreed and then there was just the two of us again."Are we being silly, Geoff? Starting a new way of living? At our age? Is this just desperation?" It wasn't like Marie to second guess herself.I hugged her to me. "I don't think so. We have time, money and our health. The kids are okay so this is our opportunity to be us. Not teacher, boss, researcher, mum or dad; just us. If this is what makes both of us happy, why fight it? You promised, if we reach a place where you're uncomfortable, then you'll tell me. I promise you the same. So let's go and see what's out there.""Tell you what," she replied pulling me closer. "Get the rest of that wine and I'll sit on your lap and we'll finish it while we cuddle then, maybe, an early night?"I was up early next morning. We did make love the night before and it was slow, sensual and fulfilling. We'd both slept like babies.When I'd finished in the bathroom, Marie was looking at her phone. "That was a text from Peter. He and Jen are coming back from Canada on Monday and thought they might stop in to see us on the way back home." She looked worried. "Do we tell them? Or just Pete? But then how do we tell Pete without Jen hearing? Do we insist he keeps it a secret from her? ""We need to make a choice," I told her. "We're telling Linda because she deserves to know the unconventional relationship that Colin will see when Angie is here. Pete isn't in that position but, I think that if Linda knows then her brother should too. And I also think that, if Pete knows, it would be unfair to expect him to keep it from Jen. I'm not sure about discussing the rest of the girls with him; I'm tempted to tell Linda because she'll get suspicious if we're never free to look after Colin on Wednesdays if she wants to go out with Mike or if she has to work late."That's fair. I'll tell Pete that they are welcome to stay and we're looking forward to seeing them. But, Geoff?""Yes?""For pity's sake, will you move the toy box out of the playroom and make sure there's no lube or condoms left in the drawers?""I'll do it now."The rest of the day was quite mundane. Breakfast, grocery shopping, coffee at home and then a walk to the park. "I think I'm happy, Geoff," my wife announced as we strolled. "Not just content; actually happy. My friends have you in their lives, I'm even closer to them than ever and Angie," Marie's voice choked. "I've never seen her so alive. Thank you."I wasn't even tempted to be flippant. "Thank you too. It's strange, but making love to your friends seems to have brought me closer to you. I'm just so relieved you aren't jealous. You aren't are you?"She considered. "No. Truthfully; not at all. What about you?""No. Me neither. In fact, I know you have a bit of a thing for Sue, and it's, I dunno, sweet."She punched me playfully. "I still like Sam though," she admitted."So, now you have both, and me and Angie too."She gave a big happy sigh and we turned and made our way home.The weather was still fine so Marie set off at ten to four to walk to the Black Swan to meet her friends. I red for half an hour and then caught the bus into town. Linda could drop me back off at home on the way to collect Colin from Mia's house.I'd reserved a table and waited at the bar for Linda. She rushed in, all flustered, only two minutes late. "It's okay," I told her. "We're not running to a timetable here."Sorry, Dad," she apologized. "Isn't there always some clown who decides that half past four on a Friday afternoon is the perfect time to start making urgent phone calls?""Is it settled?" I asked her. "Or do you need ten minutes to make some more calls of your own?""God, no!" She laughed. "I'll start working for free after finishing time when my boss stops checking her watch when folk arrive in the morning with just minutes to spare."The waiter saw that my guest had arrived and invited us to follow him to our table. The place was quiet that early so he gave us a place with a nice view over the river."Is your job getting you down?" I asked. She worked in the distribution office for a large retailer."No, the work is fine, the people are great, it's just that our boss is so insecure in her abilities that she sticks rigidly to corporate policy, and it sometimes gets in the way of actual work.""Go on," I invited her. We didn't get to chat like this as much as I'd like."Okay. So: There are six people in our office; two men, four women. We lost both of the guys for a full day on Tuesday to go on a gender harassment awareness course. One's gay and the other is a fifty year old sweetheart. They could have done effectively the same course on-line in an hour but no, she had to make sure that her boss saw our guys in person to make her look good." She gave an exaggerated sigh. "Those lads get more grief from us girls than they'd ever; Oh! It's so frustrating.""I know," I sympathized. "I regarded part of my role as lab manager as insulating the people who actually generated income from stupid policies like that. I'd do what the law required but, if an adult technician doesn't know that it's not okay to touch a colleagues bum, no matter how cute or pert it is, a course isn't enough; a dismissal is much more effective. It solves the immediate issue and also serves 'pour encourager les autres' as your Great Gran would have said. An object lesson to the others," I said in reply to her unspoken question.We chatted in the same vein as we looked through the menu and had just finished our deliberations when our waiter appeared.We ordered spring rolls and prawn toast, I ordered a pork massaman, Linda chose a chicken panang and we decided to share a green papaya salad.

Xi Jinping, Narendra Modi i Władimir Putin razem na szczycie Szanghajskiej Organizacji Współpracy w porcie Tianjin na północy Chin. A zaraz potem spektakularna parada wojskowa w Pekinie z udziałem między innymi lidera Korei Północnej Kim Dzong Una, za to bez wysokich rangą przedstawicieli Zachodu. To program ofensywy dyplomatyczno-militarnej szykowanej przez Chiny w najbliższych dniach. Czy obawa przed skutkami agresywnej polityki handlowej Donalda Trumpa wystarczy, by pogodzić sprzeczne interesy państw Globalnego Południa? I czy zgodzą się one na to, by w roli mediatora wystąpiły Chiny? Jak przebiega proces budowania alternatywnego dla Pax Americana porządku światowego, w którym Pekin chce odgrywać kluczową rolę?Kolejne śmiercionośne ataki Rosji na Kijów i inne miasta ukraińskie. W stolicy Rosjanie zabili co najmniej 23 cywilów. Moskwa nie zgadza się na rozejm, Putin wyklucza rozmowy z Zełenskim. A w Polsce prezydent wetuje ustawę o przedłużeniu pomocy dla Ukraińców i opłat za system satelitarny Starlink. Jakie mogą być tego skutki?Nie będzie traktatu, który miał ograniczyć skalę i skutki zanieczyszczenia plastikiem. Niby wszyscy się zgadzają, że tworzywa sztuczne szkodzą człowiekowi i środowisku, ale nie ma zgody co do tego, jak walczyć z zanieczyszczeniem plastikiem. Dlaczego?Australia wydala ambasadora Iranu pod zarzutem wspierania przez ten kraj antysemickich zamachów w Sydney i Melbourne. A równocześnie zapowiada uznanie państwa palestyńskiego. Premier Albanese wchodzi w konflikt zarówno z Iranem, jak i Izraelem. Dlaczego?Czym jest kontrolowany przez Elona Muska system Starlink, do czego służy i dlaczego wykorzystywanie go rozbudza polityczne emocje. Czy są alternatywy dla Starlinka?Komuniści wymordowali więcej ludzi niż faszyści. Dlaczego zatem postawienie pomnika ofiarom zbrodni komunistycznych budzi we Francji sprzeciw?Rozkład jazdy: (03:21) Michał Lubina: Chiny budują nowy światowy ład(25:06) Zbigniew Parafianowicz: Kijów pod ostrzałem, dylematy Ukrainy(55:14) Grzegorz Dobiecki: Świat z boku - Stare i nowe mury(1:02:00) Podziękowania(1:08:26) Marcin Żyła: Co robić z plastikiem: przetwarzać czy nie produkować?(1:27:49) Łukasz Wójcik: Australia w sporze z Iranem i Izraelem(1:50:02) Tomasz Rożek: Dlaczego Starlink jest ważny(2:13:47) Do usłyszenia---------------------------------------------Raport o stanie świata to audycja, która istnieje dzięki naszym Patronom, dołącz się do zbiórki ➡️ https://patronite.pl/DariuszRosiakSubskrybuj newsletter Raportu o stanie świata ➡️ https://dariuszrosiak.substack.comKoszulki i kubki Raportu ➡️ https://patronite-sklep.pl/kolekcja/raport-o-stanie-swiata/ [Autopromocja]

Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is one of the most common causes of dementia in individuals under the age of 60, yet it remains lesser known and often misunderstood.

Nantucket takes one on the chin in Hill Notes
On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, real estate developer Elaine Culotti joins Adam to uncover the truth behind the mysterious disappearance of funds raised by the FireAid concert. They dive deep into the bureaucratic mess of dealing with California's city and state infrastructure, exploring how red tape and incompetence stall recovery efforts. Adam and Elaine break down the traits of a badly run city and question the state's push for low-cost housing, all while using California as a cautionary tale for the rest of the country. The conversation wraps with a look at real estate listings in the fire-ravaged Palisades. Jason “Mayhem” Miller joins Adam to break down the latest headlines, including Tyler Perry's unapologetic decision to fire his own aunt and cut off financially dependent relatives, insisting he's not a walking welfare system. They also react to disgraced ex-Rep. George Santos admitting his chin is fake and revealing his biggest fear about heading to prison—namely, that the 30% filler in his face might migrate during his 87-month sentence. The news wraps with a surprising discussion about pets and the environment, as a new report exposes the massive carbon “pawprint” left by dogs and their droppings. Adam and Mayhem riff on how climate alarmists might eventually target your furry friends in their war on emissions.Get it on.FOR MORE WITH ELAINE CULOTTI:WEBSITE: elaineculotti.com INSTAGRAM: @lipstickfarmer TWITTER: @ElaineCulotti FOR MORE WITH JASON “MAYHEM” MILLER: INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: @mayhemmillerWEBSITE: www.mayhemnow.com Thank you for supporting our sponsors:BetOnlineHomes.comMINTMOBILE.com/ADAMListen now to the Life Kit podcast from NPR.oreillyauto.com/ADAMPluto.tvsimplisafe.com/ADAMLIVE SHOWS: August 6 - Reno, NVAugust 7 - Portland, ORSeptember 12-13 - El Paso, TX (4 Shows)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
