On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, Tucker Carlson and Matt Gaetz are lying again – accusing Mark of pushing for ground troops in Iran. On March 28, 2026, Mark discussed the possibility of special forces or elements of the 82nd Airborne securing Iran's enriched uranium if it could not be destroyed or altered, which is a specific, sophisticated mission rather than any call for hundreds of thousands of ground troops or regular infantry. Mark never advocated for large-scale ground forces. Carlson and Gaetz deliberately editing his remarks. They trash Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, the U.S., its military, and President Trump while rarely criticizing the Iranian regime, and aligning with Islamists. Also, Gov Kathy Hochul and Zohran Mamdani are excited that local law enforcement will not work with ICE to deport criminal illegal aliens. Are New Yorkers happy about this? How could anyone vote for a Democrat given this reality? Later, Rep Jim Jordan calls in and explains the substantial overlap between the Democratic Socialists of America and the modern Democratic Party, which has shifted from the party of FDR and JFK to one that is anti-Israel, antisemitic, and socialist while opposing common-sense policies such as supporting the police, ICE, and opposing sanctuary jurisdictions.  Finally, the family of 15-year-old American Malki Roth, killed in the 2001 Sbarro restaurant bombing in Jerusalem that claimed 15 lives and wounded about 122 others, has filed a civil lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia against Ahlam Aref Ahmad al-Tamimi, the Hamas operative who planned and executed the attack. Malki Roth's father, Arnold Roth, calls in and explains that the terrorist remains free in Jordan, is celebrated as a national hero and expresses no regret beyond not killing more people, while Jordan refuses extradition despite a treaty. Roth explains the civil lawsuit which is under the Anti-Terrorism Act seeking to seize her assets and make her life less comfortable, with any recovered funds directed to the Malki Foundation.

Episode Description:Mike Massimino's path to space was not a straight line. It was a long series of obstacles, failures, second attempts, and decisions not to quit.In this From the Archive conversation, James talks with Mike about his memoir Spaceman, his two shuttle missions to service the Hubble Space Telescope, his career at NASA, his work at Columbia, and the deeper lessons behind becoming an astronaut.Mike explains that spaceflight may look impossibly complex from the outside, but NASA makes it possible through preparation, checklists, training, repetition, and teamwork. In space, even the hardest work has structure. Back on Earth, ordinary life can sometimes feel harder because there is no checklist for getting through the day.James and Mike talk about the view of Earth from orbit and why Mike's first reaction after a spacewalk was: “The Earth is a planet.” From space, Earth no longer looks like a safe, permanent background. It looks like a fragile home traveling through a dangerous universe.The conversation then moves back to Mike's childhood. He watched Neil Armstrong walk on the moon and saw the New York Mets win the World Series in 1969, but he did not believe becoming an astronaut was realistic. Astronauts seemed like superheroes. It felt like something other people did.Still, the dream stayed with him.Mike describes failing his PhD qualifying exam at MIT, being told he might not be suited for the program, and deciding to try again anyway. He talks about applying to NASA four times, being rejected, failing the medical exam because of his eyesight, and then doing the seemingly impossible: training his eyes to pass the standard without surgery.For James, this becomes the central lesson. Most people would have accepted medical disqualification as proof that the dream was over. Mike saw it as another obstacle.The episode also explores what “the right stuff” really means. Mike pushes back against the old image of the astronaut as a lone, fearless test pilot. The real right stuff, he says, is whether someone can be trusted with your life. Can they work on a team? Will they help when you need help? Will they ask for help when they need it?Near the end, James identifies another pattern in Mike's life: he may not have been the best at any single thing, but he became unusually good at a combination of things. Astronaut. Engineer. Spacewalker. Teacher. Communicator. Author. Public face for science. That combination made him uniquely valuable.The result is a conversation about space, but also about persistence, meaning, teamwork, and the improbable path from childhood dream to real achievement.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode. References to NASA programs, the Space Launch System, Orion, Commercial Crew, SpaceX, Boeing, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, the shuttle program, and Mike's recent book activity reflect the original recording period.What You'll Learn:Why astronauts rely so heavily on checklists, procedures, training, and team support.How the view of Earth from space changed Mike Massimino's relationship to the planet.Why Mike believes life likely exists somewhere else in the universe.What the Hubble Deep Field revealed about galaxies hiding in a seemingly empty patch of sky.Why childhood dreams can matter even when they seem impossible.How Mike decided which dreams were worth paying the price to pursue.Why failing at MIT did not end his path to NASA.How he handled repeated NASA rejections.Why failing the astronaut eye exam became one of the defining obstacles of his life.How Mike trained his eyes to pass NASA's vision requirements.Why the most successful people are not people who never fail.What “the right stuff” means beyond bravery, intelligence, or physical ability.Why teamwork, trust, and character matter so much in spaceflight.How imposter syndrome can change when you understand your role on a team.Why the odds only become zero when you give up.How private space companies could expand access to space.Timestamped Chapters:[04:53] NASA Checklists vs. Normal LifeMike explains why complex work in space can feel simpler than ordinary life when training, procedures, and support are in place.[07:13] Training for Spacewalks UnderwaterJames asks about NASA's massive training pool, full-scale mockups, and how closely underwater training matches a real spacewalk.[08:33] The Overwhelming View of EarthMike says the work itself is trained into you, but the view of the planet from space is impossible to fully prepare for.[09:16] “The Earth Is a Planet”Mike describes seeing Earth as a fragile home surrounded by the rest of the universe.[11:32] Is There Life Somewhere Else?Mike explains why Hubble's view of billions of galaxies makes it hard for him to believe Earth is the only place with life.[12:27] Why Hubble MattersJames and Mike talk about Hubble's images, the telescope's cultural impact, and why servicing it mattered.[14:03] The Hubble Deep FieldMike explains how Hubble found galaxies in a patch of sky that had seemed empty.[15:33] The Kid Who Wanted to Be an AstronautJames rewinds to Mike's childhood: Neil Armstrong, the 1969 Mets, bad eyesight, fear of heights, and an impossible dream.[18:10] Losing Touch With the DreamMike reflects on how people can talk themselves out of what they really love because the path looks too hard.[18:28] Failing at MITJames compares his own graduate-school failure to Mike's decision to keep going after failing his PhD qualifying exam.[20:43] Which Dreams Are Worth the Cost?Mike explains how he knew acting was interesting but space was something he was willing to suffer for.[23:20] Meaning, Public Service, and the Book's Real ThemesMike says Spaceman became about dreams, persistence, the wonder of space, and the value of doing work that serves something larger.[26:29] Interest Plus MeaningJames identifies the pattern in Mike's decisions: he pursued the work that combined personal interest with deeper purpose.[28:00] Finding the Path When There Is No MapMike explains why he chose to keep pursuing his PhD even though there were other possible routes to NASA.[30:06] Thirty Seconds of RegretMike remembers the advice to give yourself a short period of regret after failure, then move on.[31:19] The People Who Never Let Failure Stop ThemMike says the most successful people he has met are not people who never fail, but people who refuse to be stopped by failure.[35:20] Failing the NASA Eye ExamJames asks about the obstacle that seemed impossible to fix: Mike's eyesight.[36:35] Applying to NASA Four TimesMike describes two early rejections, one interview, a failed medical exam, and the long road toward another chance.[39:10] “How Could I Have Given Up?”Mike explains why he could live with NASA saying no, but not with himself giving up.[40:28] Training His Eyes to See BetterMike finds a doctor, works through vision training, and eventually improves enough to pass the acuity requirement.[41:27] Getting to Space Was Not the EndJames notes that even after becoming an astronaut, Mike faced more setbacks, including the Columbia tragedy and the uncertainty around later Hubble missions.[43:07] Knowing When a Chapter Is OverMike explains why he eventually felt satisfied with his astronaut career and ready for the next phase.[43:48] Imposter Syndrome and TeamworkMike describes feeling like an imposter at MIT and NASA, and how belonging to a team helped him understand what he could contribute.[46:16] Redefining “The Right Stuff”James and Mike discuss why the real astronaut test is not swagger, but trust, character, and whether someone has your back.[49:11] Would You Trust This Person With Your Life?Mike explains the qualities NASA looks for beyond credentials: teamwork, reliability, humility, and character.[54:02] The Fourth Theme: Combinations of SkillJames points out that Mike's power came from combining many abilities: astronaut, engineer, spacewalker, teacher, communicator, and author.[57:26] The Right Person Because He Wouldn't Give UpMike says he may not have been the best spacewalker, but he was the person who would not quit when the Hubble repair became difficult.[01:00:14] The Odds Are Never Zero Until You QuitMike explains that near-impossible is not impossible—and the only way the chance disappears completely is if you give up.[01:01:05] The Future of SpaceflightMike talks about NASA, the International Space Station, Commercial Crew, SpaceX, Boeing, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, and private citizens in space.Additional Resources:Mike Massimino Official WebsiteMike Massimino BiographySpaceman by Mike MassiminoMike Massimino at Columbia

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton were honored to welcome Dr. Dennis Dulniak, Mark Dulniak, and Craig Dulniak of Nana's Books Foundation for a meaningful conversation about Alzheimer's disease, family caregiving, children's literacy, empathy, and the lasting legacy of Nancy Dulniak.   About Nana's Books Foundation:   Nana's Books Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to promoting literacy, empathy, and awareness through the power of books.   The Foundation was created in honor of Nancy Dulniak, a lifelong librarian who passed away from Early-Onset Alzheimer's disease at age 69. Nancy believed books could open minds, inspire compassion, and help children better understand the world around them.   Founded in 2020, Nana's Books Foundation provides age- and grade-appropriate books and educational resources focused on Alzheimer's disease, dementia, disabilities, caregiving, empathy, resilience, and acceptance. Through partnerships with schools, public libraries, and community organizations, the Foundation helps families begin important conversations that can otherwise be difficult to navigate.   Special emphasis is placed on supporting Title I schools and underserved communities.   Since its founding, Nana's Books Foundation has expanded across 16 states and the District of Columbia, distributing more than 26,000 books to nearly 12,000 students and classrooms, as well as 29 school libraries and 20 public libraries.   At its heart, the Foundation carries forward Nancy's lifelong commitment to children, education, libraries, and compassion.   About Dr. Dennis Dulniak:   Dr. Dennis Dulniak is Founder and President of Nana's Books Foundation.   After a 40-year career in higher education, including serving as University Registrar at the University of Central Florida and as a Vice President at Parchment, Dennis became a caregiver when Nancy was diagnosed with Early-Onset Alzheimer's disease in 2014.   For more than seven years, Dennis served as Nancy's care partner, gaining firsthand insight into dementia caregiving, changing relationships, communication, and advocacy.   Following Nancy's passing, he dedicated his retirement to honoring her through Nana's Books Foundation. Dennis is also a Co-Founder of Central Florida Dementia-Friendly Dining, a facilitator and resource for a large men's caregiver support group, and a member of the Central Florida Dementia Care and Cure Initiative.   Today, he shares his family's journey to help caregivers, children, and communities better understand dementia.   About Mark Dulniak:   Mark Dulniak, the eldest son of Nancy and Dennis Dulniak, is Co-Founder and Treasurer of Nana's Books Foundation.   The Foundation's roots began in 2018 when Mark started donating books to Knoxville-area classrooms in honor of his mother. Students wrote thank-you notes to Nancy, bringing her tremendous joy during her journey with Early-Onset Alzheimer's disease.   That tradition eventually grew into Nana's Books Foundation, ensuring Nancy's lifelong love of books and learning would continue to impact future generations.   Mark now helps expand the organization's reach to Title I schools, school libraries, public libraries, students, and families. He also advocates for families to begin age-appropriate conversations with children about dementia, using books as a compassionate way to help them understand what is happening to someone they love.   About Craig Dulniak:   Craig Dulniak, the youngest son of Nancy and Dennis Dulniak, serves as Secretary Emeritus of Nana's Books Foundation and lives with his wife and son in Philadelphia.   During one of Nancy's final visits to Philadelphia, Craig took her to his local public library to sign her grandson up for his first library card at just one year old—a fitting reflection of Nancy's lifelong connection to books and libraries.   Craig hopes Nana's Books Foundation will help children better understand dementia, Alzheimer's disease, disabilities, and caregiving by increasing access to books addressing topics often underrepresented in children's literature.   Through the Foundation, the Dulniak family continues Nancy's legacy through every book shared and every conversation inspired about kindness, empathy, understanding, and inclusion.

Can changing what you eat treat depression, anxiety, and even psychosis more effectively than medication alone? In this episode of Food Junkies, Dr. Vera Tarman sits down with Dr. Matt Bernstein, MD, psychiatrist and CEO of Accord, to unpack the emerging field of metabolic psychiatry — and what it means for people recovering from food addiction. Dr. Bernstein trained at Columbia, Penn, and the MGH-McLean Psychiatry Program before shifting from traditional hospital-based psychiatric care toward lifestyle-based interventions: nutrition, sleep, light, and movement. He now serves on the advisory board of Metabolic Mind and helped organize the first public conference on metabolic psychiatry in 2023. In this conversation, Dr. Bernstein and Dr. Tarman explore how brain energy metabolism — not just neurotransmitters — may be a root driver of conditions like depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's, and why ketogenic and low-carbohydrate approaches are showing early but compelling results for food cravings, food noise, and psychiatric symptom relief. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why Dr. Bernstein moved away from conventional psychiatric medication models toward metabolic approaches How brain insulin resistance can contribute to depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia The role of mitochondria, oxidative stress, and the gut-brain axis in mental illness How ketones act as an alternative brain fuel — and why that matters for insulin-resistant neurons The connection between brain insulin resistance and Alzheimer's risk decades before symptoms appear How ketogenic and low-carb diets naturally reduce food cravings and "food noise" for people with food addiction What a day in the Accord immersive metabolic psychiatry program actually looks like Why combining diet, exercise, circadian rhythm alignment, and mind-body practices produces faster results than any single intervention alone How GLP-1 medications compare to ketogenic diets for reducing food noise and cravings — and where each may fall short The risks of rapid or unsupported psychiatric medication tapering, and why "hyperbolic tapering" matters What to watch for (and troubleshoot) if a ketogenic diet isn't producing results after several weeks Guest Dr. Matt Bernstein, MD is a psychiatrist and CEO of Accord, an immersive metabolic psychiatry program near Boston. He is a leading voice in metabolic psychiatry, sits on the advisory board of Metabolic Mind, and helped organize the first public conference dedicated to the field in 2023.

It's Thursday, August 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Haitian gangs target churches Violent gangs in Haiti are increasingly targeting churches. These gangs control up to 90 percent of the capital of Port-au-Prince. They have killed and kidnapped religious leaders and shut down dozens of churches.  Catholic Bishop Joseph Gontrand Décoste told Aid to the Church in Need, “We are the last remaining retaining wall: moral, ethical, spiritual, and prophetic. … That is why they want to eliminate us.” Christians help victims of Columbia's earthquake Christians are bringing disaster relief to Colombia.  A 7.4-magnitude earthquake struck the South American country on Monday. The quake killed 250 people and injured thousands more.  Many Christian relief organizations are sending aid to the country, including Samaritan's Purse. Franklin Graham, the president, wrote on X, “We … are currently working to put together an airlift of relief supplies, including emergency shelter tarp and hygiene kits. I encourage you to pray for the people of this country.” Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” Send a much-needed donation to the Columbian victims of this earthquake through Samaritan's Purse. You'll find the donation link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Mexican Bible Society translates Scriptures into 8 local languages The Bible Society of Mexico is celebrating six decades of ministry this year. The Bible has been translated into eight indigenous languages in the country. And the demand for Bibles is growing as Protestant churches expand their presence.  Efraín Amaro is the head of distribution of the Bible society. He told Christian Daily International, “In 60 years, more than 374 million biblical materials have been distributed. We have reached 13 cities across the country with service and distribution centers.” Revelation 7:9-10 says, “After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God Who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!'” White House Press Secretary Karolien Leavitt embraces motherhood White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, age 28, will be leaving her position to fully embrace motherhood. She and her 60-year-old husband, Nicholas Riccio, have two children together -- their son Niko, 2, and Viviana who is three months. In a Truth Social post, President Donald Trump explained that she “will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect!” In a statement on X, Leavitt added, “Serving as the White House Press Secretary over the past year and a half has been the honor and adventure of a lifetime. I am incredibly grateful to President Trump for granting me so many extraordinary opportunities, such as working in the West Wing and spending countless hours in the Oval Office, flying around the world and meeting foreign leaders, and traveling across our beautiful country and meeting Americans from all walks of life. “The truth is, since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve while devoting the constant time, energy, and attention required of the White House Press Secretary. And that is why I have ultimately made the bittersweet decision to depart the White House.” Titus 2:4-5 says, “Train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.” Democrat socialist barely defeated in Wisconsin Socialist Democrats suffered a setback in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Moderate David Crowley barely defeated socialist Francesca Hong in the Democrat primary election for governor. According to NBC, the vote was 39.8% vs 39.3%. Just 3,796 votes separated the two in the statewide race. Leftist candidates had been winning many Democrat primaries this year. Despite being considered a moderate, Crowley believes that killing unborn babies is “healthcare” and must be “protected at all costs.” He made this comment in his victory speech. CROWLEY: “Every one of us has something much bigger to unite around. And that is keeping [Make America Great Again] extremism from bringing the chaos we see in Washington into our neighborhoods right here in the state of Wisconsin. From the very first day that I announced this campaign, I said the real threat wasn't any of my primary opponents. The real opponent has always been Tom Tiffany. That remains true today.” Tiffany, the Republican nominee for Wisconsin governor, is currently a member of Congress. The Washington Examiner reports that new Democratic-affiliated polling shows Crowley beating Tiffany by three points this fall, though the race is within the margin of error. Crowley leads Tiffany 47% to 44%, according to the poll by Protect Our Wisconsin, a group backed by the Democratic Governors Association.  Federal gov't gave mega money to religious migrant resettlement groups The federal government funded major religious groups with hundreds of millions of dollars in migrant resettlement grants. The data comes from Brian Chau, the founder of Efforts News. Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk brought attention to this research in a post on X this week. In one case, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops received over $180 million dollars in migrant resettlement grants in 2024. That was over 80 percent of the group's revenue at the time. The contracts ended last year after the Trump administration cut funding to such programs.  Women hold more jobs than men in America Women now hold more jobs than men in the U.S economy.  A report from Indeed's Hiring Lab found the number of jobs held by men declined by 142,000 between February 2025 and February 2026. Over the same period, the number of jobs held by women grew by 298,000.   The report noted, “More jobs are held by women than men in the non-farm economy, not because of a recession, but because of years of eroding male labor force participation.” Americans become skeptical of capitalism Americans are becoming less positive toward capitalism. A new Gallup survey found 54 percent of U.S. adults said they have a positive image of capitalism. That's down from 61 percent in 2010. Thirty-nine percent said they have a positive image of socialism. That's up from 36 percent in 2010. The drop in positivity toward capitalism has accelerated since 2021. Americans trust small, local businesses and churches And finally, Americans tend to trust small, local institutions, according to research from the Barna Group.  U.S. adults put some of their highest trust in local businesses, individual Christians, and small churches. They put moderate trust in Christian pastors, Christian non-profits, and Christian businesses. But they had little trust for megachurches and celebrity pastors.  Compared to 2024, Christian non-profits, charities, and small churches saw the largest growth on the trust index.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, August 13th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

John is joined by Michael K. Young, Professor of Law and Former President of Texas A&M University, the University of Washington and the University of Utah.  They discuss Michael's career in higher education, starting with his years at Columbia Law School, including the two and a half years that he was a visiting Professor at the University of Tokyo, his establishment of the East Asian Legal Studies Center at Columbia and continuing through his service at the State Department where he negotiated treaties involving trade, international environmental law, human rights, and the terms under which Germany was unified.  They then discuss Michael's tenure as Dean of George Washington Law School and the University of Utah and, later, President of the University of Utah, the University of Washington, and Texas A&M University. Michael describes his current role at a research center that is preparing the entire educational system, from primary school through university, for the futuristic megacity project in Saudi Arabia called NEOM.  Michael explains how his training as a lawyer helped him perform in these leadership positions by always maintaining his focus on the ends he is trying to achieve, the purpose of the institution and  seeing both sides of each issue.  Michael also explains several leadership lessons he has learned including that leaders need to genuinely listen and convey that they have listened, keep everyone focused on the institution's mission, spread credit generously and take blame when thing go wrong.  Finally, John and Michael discuss the current controversies over free speech at American campuses.  Michael shares his approach to handling volatile situations with controversial speakers.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

It's Wednesday, August 12th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus British driver lost car insurance over Christian bumper sticker A British driver lost his car insurance for displaying a Christian message on his vehicle.  Simeon Chandra put handmade “Jesus Loves You” stickers on his car. However, his GoSkippy Insurance broker said he must remove the stickers to retain coverage. The Christian Legal Centre is now supporting him in his ordeal. Andrea Williams, chief executive of the group, said, “Having experienced profound transformation through Jesus, from despair to hope, and from brokenness to purpose, [Simeon] is not ashamed to share what he believes. … If insurers can refuse [coverage] because a customer displays a Christian message, that should alarm everyone who cares about freedom of religion and freedom of expression.” 1 Peter 3:15-16 says, “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed.” To register a polite, on-line complaint with GoSkippy, visit our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. European household pets outnumber children Evangelical Focus reports that household pets outnumber children in Europe.  As of 2024, 49 percent of European households owned a pet. Of the 306 million pets in Europe, most were cats followed by dogs and ornamental birds.  By comparison, there are 1.4 million children under the age of 15 in Europe. That means the continent has an average 0.4 children for every pet. In fact, pet dogs now outnumber children in 15 European countries.   Massachusetts legalized killing babies on their birthdays Here in the United States, Massachusetts legalized the killing of unborn babies up to the point of birth on August 10th. Democrat Governor Maura Healey, a lesbian who is faux married to a woman and identifies as a Catholic, signed the abortion bill into law on Monday. The measure allows late-term abortions for any reason. Listen to how Governor Healy asserts that killing a baby is “healthcare” at her press conference. HEALY: “I promise that no matter what Donald Trump or Republicans in Congress, or the Supreme Court does, we're going to continue to make sure that women and families have access to the healthcare that they need right here in Massachusetts. “We know that protecting abortion access and reproductive healthcare has been under fire. We saw it when the Supreme Court overturned Roe in the Dobbs decision back in 2022, the first time a court has ever taken away a right that was given. “We've seen it as Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress continue to pass anti-abortion legislation, including extreme abortion bans. Today, one in three women in America live in a state with an abortion ban. “President Trump's new attorney general, Todd Blanche, over the weekend, said that overturning Roe v. Wade should be made ‘permanent' in every state. That's what we're up against.” Massachusetts is now the 11th state, plus the District of Columbia, to allow abortions up to birth. (Massachusetts joins Alaska, Colorado, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon and Vermont, according to FoxNews.com). Isaiah 59:7 says, “Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood; their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.” ​Trump recommends fewer child vaccines & greater parental authority On August 10th, President Donald Trump signed an executive order on childhood vaccines, recommending fewer ones and that they be spread out over time instead of injecting multiple vaccines in one sitting. Listen to comments from Stephen Miller, the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy. MILLER: “Because of your courage and leadership, Mr. President, millions of parents all over America today are breathing an enormous sigh of relief. I say this as the parent of young children myself. “Millions and millions of parents feel they've been pressured when their children are just weeks out of the hospital to take five shots, six shots, seven shots -- all at once. They're told it'll be normal. Your kid will have a fever of 103 [degrees] for three or four days. Your kid will stop eating for a week. Your kid's going to change all their sleeping. Don't worry; it's totally fine. It's totally normal. Nobody has studied it. Nobody's looked at it. Nobody's thought about it. “The pressure from the pharmaceutical industry and from aspects of the medical industry to pump your kids full of shots days after birth, with no understanding of the long-term consequences, has been a medical travesty.” In addition, the order recommends 11 immunizations for children, down from 18. The order also calls on states to protect parental authority and religious freedom in vaccine decisions.   Specifically, President Trump said in the order, “It is the policy of my administration that federal programs and funding should support maximal parental choice over childhood vaccines.” America's oil reserves dropped to half capacity America's oil reserves have fallen to the lowest level in over 40 years. The U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve dropped below 300 million barrels last week. That's less than half of its total capacity and the lowest level since 1983.  In March, President Donald Trump authorized the release of up to 172 million barrels from the reserve in response to the war with Iran.  Churchgoers who attend Bible studies have highest discipleship scores And finally, Lifeway Research reports churchgoers who attend Bible studies have the highest discipleship scores. The discipleship scores highlight characteristics consistently present in the lives of believers who are progressing in their spiritual maturity. U.S Protestant churchgoers who attend a small group Bible study five times or more each month had the highest discipleship scores.  Scott McConnell, executive director of Lifeway Research, said, “The value of small groups is seen in higher levels of evangelism, service, giving, disciplines and relationships among those who regularly participate in small groups of adults from church compared to those who do not.” Acts 2:42 describes the early church: “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, August 10th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Long before Little River was landing on lists of the coolest neighborhoods on earth, Matthew Vander Werff was quietly buying it, nearly 80 properties at a time when the rest of Miami was still fighting over Wynwood.This week the Founding Principal of MVW Partners joins us to trace the whole journey: an Iowa upbringing, a detour through the film and hospitality worlds, a Columbia real estate degree earned at the worst possible moment in 2007, and the decade of patient assemblage that turned a forgotten industrial pocket north of the Design District into the epicenter of Miami culture. We get into the mechanics of buying a neighborhood without tipping off the market, his hand-picked approach to tenants, the $79.9 million deal with AJ Capital, and why he stayed on to keep running the place after selling the majority. Plus the restaurant bets that keep paying off, from Sunny's Steakhouse to Ogawa, the 10-seat omakase that brought a Michelin star to Little River, and building it all in partnership with his wife and co-founder, Ashley Abess.We poured a bottle of Samuel Billaud Les Grands Terroirs 2023 for this one, a Chablis with the kind of restraint and sense of place Matthew has spent a decade building into a neighborhood. It did not survive the episode.Connect with usWant to dive deeper into Miami's commercial real estate scene?

Columbia Township - Trustees Meeting - August 11, 2026

In 1934, legal scholar Adolf Berle wrote a footnote speculating that someone might one day hold a passive property right in active property — what we'd now call a governance token. He called it a problem for another day. For Teresa Goody Guillén, founding partner of Bellamentis and founder of the legal AI platform Sophie Lex, that day is now, and it's reshaping how she advises clients building in digital markets.Teresa joins Ari to trace a career that runs from a plaintiff's law firm and a federal clerkship for Judge Urbina of the US District Court for the District of Columbia, through the SEC's Office of General Counsel and a stint working alongside former SEC Chairman Harvey Pitt, to launching her own law firm built around the convergence of traditional and digital financial markets. Her name has even come up as a potential contender for SEC Chair.The conversation moves from the day-to-day of her practice — clients navigating exemptive relief, subpoenas, and the "security or commodity" question she thinks misses the point — to what she's building next. Through Sophie Lex, she's developing proprietary AI trained on her own legal reasoning to help lawyers work faster without losing judgment, arguing AI should scale lawyers rather than replace them. She also shares her take on SEC Chair Paul Atkins' modernization push and why she thinks exemptive relief, more than new legislation, could unlock effective crypto regulation today.

Renowned NYC-based plastic surgeon Dr. Lara Devgan joins us to explain what actually works and how to create a thoughtful, long-term approach to looking refreshed without looking overdone. In this episode, we cover: What women over 50 are really looking for: Why the goal is often not to look younger, but to look rested, healthy, vibrant, and like yourself, and how menopause changes the skin, hair, face, and overall appearance. Understanding the different types of facelifts: A clear explanation of full facelifts, deep-plane facelifts, vertical restore techniques, mid-facelifts, mini-facelifts, and neck lifts, and how a surgeon determines which approach may be appropriate for different stages of facial aging. Suture suspension and thread lifting: What suture suspension actually is, how it differs from traditional threads, who may be a candidate, and why there is so much disagreement among surgeons about these procedures. The aging neck: Why the neck can be one of the most frustrating areas for women in midlife and beyond, what happens to the platysma muscle as we age, and when Botox, a Nefertiti-style approach, or surgery may make sense. Tired-looking eyes: Why the eyes can make you look older or more exhausted than you feel—and how to think about upper and lower blepharoplasty, under-eye puffiness, dark circles, hollowness, and the role (and limitations) of eye creams. Hollowing, volume loss, and facial balance: How menopause-related changes in fat, bone, skin, and soft tissue affect the face, and why simply adding more filler isn't always the answer. What noninvasive treatments can, and cannot, do: A realistic look at skincare, lasers, injectables, biostimulators, regenerative treatments, and other nonsurgical options for women who aren't ready for surgery or don't want it. How to combine surgery, noninvasive treatments, and skincare: Why the best aesthetic plan isn't necessarily one procedure. Learn how women can think about their face and skin as a long-term investment, combining the right surgical procedures with nonsurgical treatments and a strong skincare routine over time. Red flags when choosing a plastic surgeon: What women should look for when evaluating a doctor, how to think about credentials and experience, why seeing before-and-after photos matters, and warning signs that a surgeon may be selling a procedure rather than creating an individualized plan. Skincare for mature and postmenopausal skin: The importance of protecting the skin barrier, using targeted active ingredients, and protecting against environmental damage—and how to approach vitamin C, retinoids, hyaluronic acid, sunscreen, and other popular anti-aging ingredients. Whether you're considering a facelift, neck lift, eyelid surgery, injectables, lasers, regenerative treatments, or simply want a better skincare routine, this conversation offers a practical roadmap for navigating plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine after 50—to look like the best, most rested version of yourself. Dr. Devgan trained as a classical artist before medicine — Yale, Johns Hopkins Medical School, Columbia and New York Presbyterian for residency and fellowship. She operates on the principle that beauty is in the details. Millimeter-level changes. Not transformation — enhancement. Her most fulfilled patients aren't the ones who look younger. They're the ones who look like themselves — well-rested, radiant, and congruent with how they feel inside.

It's Tuesday, August 11th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Canada euthanized Christian grandmother against her will The nation of Canada continues down the dark path of euthanasia. This time, comes this shocking story, where the state euthanized Brigitte Stegemann, an 83-year-old Christian grandmother, against her will and the will of her family. On the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition blog, her granddaughter said,  “One of our greatest ethical concerns is that GG had explicitly declined [Medical Assistance in Dying], stating it violated her Christian faith. Once a vulnerable patient explicitly declines this path, the facility should never have targeted her for re-evaluation behind closed doors while her primary advocate was away.” More than 5% of all deaths in Canada are attributed to Medical Assistance in Dying. It is the fifth leading cause of death there. Psalm 94:4 and 6 cries out: “How long shall they utter and speak hard things and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves? … They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.” Severe drought in Europe and blazing hot July in America God has brought a severe drought on Europe. Since 1836, the month of July was the driest for England and Wales in recorded history, reports Reuters. Similarly, the United States experienced the hottest July since 1895.  Also, March 2026 was the hottest March ever — 9.4° above the 20th-century average. Ukraine drone attack killed 13 Russians, injured 75 Ukraine's drone attack on Russia's oil hub killed 13 citizens and wounded another 75 over the weekend, reports PBS.  Russia says they shut down 450 drones. In addition, Russia killed 21 people in Kyiv in this ongoing drone-based tit-for-tat warfare. The changing military alliances overseas Internationally, nations are lining up in allied positions. Just last week, Pakistan, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia signed a pact, in which all three nations agreed that an attack on any of the three nations would be taken as an attack on all. Pakistan's relationship with China has also warmed up considerably.   China supplies Pakistan's military weaponry and Pakistan strongly supports Beijing on Taiwan, Xinjiang, Tibet, Hong Kong, and the South China Sea. If we include China's growing relationship with Russia, this axis of powers now holds 6,100 nuclear warheads in total, almost exactly the same number held by the allied powers of the United States, the United Kingdom, France, India, and Israel.  Keep in mind: God is over all the armies of the Earth. Isaiah 13:4–5 states that “The LORD of hosts musters the army for battle. They come from a far country, from the end of Heaven, the LORD and His weapons of indignation, to destroy the whole land.” Columbia hit by major earthquake Another devastating earthquake hit Colombia yesterday morning, killing 111 people, reports the Associated Press. It was 7.4 on the Richter scale. This follows another 7.5 earthquake in Venezuela a few weeks ago, that killed 5,000 people. Colombia produces 80% of the world's cocaine.  However, Friday marked the first day in office for Colombia's new president —  Abelardo de la Espriella. He is an admirer of President Donald Trump and had promised an "all-out war" on the drug cartels. South America has swung to the right over the last few years. Now eight countries are led by presidents who would align more with President Donald Trump. Only three South American nations are led by presidents that bend towards the left including Brazil, Bolivia and Venezuela. Two-thirds of Americans support the death penalty Pew Research has found that Americans favor the use of the death penalty for murder convictions, in line with Genesis 9:6.   A full two-thirds of Americans say they favor the death penalty, and only 32% oppose it.  The numbers have remained about the same for the last seven years. Yet, in the first half of 2026, capital juries chose not to execute the murderer at least 19 times, more often than to execute. Murders in America average 15,000 per year, yet on average, only 23 murderers are put to death.  That's one-tenth of one percent!  And this year, only 19 murderers have received the death penalty.  Genesis 9:6 says, “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in His own image.” Network for Hope shut down for its immoral organ donor system The Department of Health and Human Services has decertified Network for Hope, an organ transplant organization that was exposed for unsafe and immoral practices. Heidi Klessig of Life Site News explained, “Removing Network for Hope's certification was absolutely necessary, but will not address the most pressing problem underlying our current organ donation system: organ donors must be biologically alive in order to donate viable organs.” Attorney General Todd Blanche eager to end mail-order abortions And finally, newly appointed Attorney General Todd Blanche has pledged to work towards solidifying pro-life gains across the country, as well as to end mail-order abortions. Not surprisingly, all Democrats voted against Blanche's nomination.   According to Americans United for Life, “Through his statements and actions as Acting Attorney General, Mr. Blanche has shown himself to be a sincere advocate for human life and a faithful servant of President Trump's pro-life agenda.”  And Blanche himself has stated, “If states have said, ‘We are going to protect the unborn and we're going to protect every life from the moment of conception,' we're putting practices and policies in place so that other states and other organizations can't attack that. They can't do things like they're doing with mailing in mail-order drugs.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, August 11th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Print story United States exits United Nations Livestock group The United States government is pulling out of the United Nations' Global Plan of Action for Sustainable Livestock Transformation, The New American reported.  The decision, announced by the Officer for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Paul Welcher, comes because the declaration promotes climate change, so-called equality, and other radical policies.  Per Politico, “The plan, which is completely voluntary, was finally adopted by delegates on Friday [July 17]. It advises countries to address issues such as biodiversity, animal welfare, emissions and how to prevent the spread of disease.”

Brad Fiedel wrote one of the most recognisable pieces of music in film history, and he did it on a drum machine, a sequencer and a keyboard chained together with a computer ribbon cable, before MIDI was really a thing. The famous lurch in the rhythm is him hitting a button by hand and deciding the wobble was better than the fix. Years later Henry Mancini rang up wanting to record it with a big band, and the man writing the lead sheet couldn't work out the time signature.There is a lot more to Brad than Terminator, and that's really what this conversation is about. He grew up inside his parents' school of the arts on Long Island, his dad a jazz musician, his mum a modern dancer who studied with Martha Graham. He spent years improvising live for dance classes, which turned out to be exactly the muscle a film composer needs, though nobody told him that at the time. He nearly signed to Columbia. He played keys for Hall and Oates in 1974 and jammed with the band that became the E Street Band. He was working with Arthur Miller and Vanessa Redgrave before James Cameron ever called.We get into temp tracks and why he never did his best work against one, when a scene is better off with no music at all, the direction Cameron gave him on the canal chase in T2, and the moment after the True Lies sessions when a small voice told him he was finished. These days his regular gig is writing musicals with first graders in Santa Barbara, and he's very clear that he gets as much out of it as they do.This podcast is completely independent and made possible by listener support.

Julia Kang-Reeves shares her story with Dr. Stephanie J. Wong of immigrating from Seoul to NY. She later spent nearly two decades in London, raising her daughter who attended all-female schools until returning to the US. From learning to navigate various cultures to becoming the CMO of wellness company, Earth Therapeutics to co-lead the family business, Earth Therapeutics, Julia shares the challenges and joys of a multi-dimensional identity.  Bio ========================================== Julia co-leads the 30-year-old company alongside her brother John Kang (Founder & CEO) — a brand he launched in 1993 as an offshoot of the family's business after leaving a budding law career. With virtually no skin-care experience at the time, John began selling loofah sponges to Bed Bath & Beyond — one of the first to introduce the loofah to the U.S. market and laying the foundation for what would become a category-defining wellness brand. Together, Julia and John have continued building on the entrepreneurial spirit of their immigrant parents, who remain actively involved and still come into the office — a daily reminder that the company is rooted in family, resilience, and long-term relationships. Earth Therapeutics went on to help pioneer both the early natural body care movement and the rise of Korean spa (K-spa) beauty stateside — long before "wellness" became a marketing buzzword. A classicist-turned-writer-turned-CMO, Julia studied Classics at the University of Chicago and Columbia (where she received a Presidential Fellowship) before earning an MFA in Fiction Writing at NYU. After nearly two decades in London, she returned in 2020 to help lead her family's brand into a new era. Having grown up alongside the original '90s natural products movement — long before "wellness" became a buzzword — she now brings that long-view perspective to a Gen Z world shaped by burnout, trend cycles, and social media pressure. She believes America doesn't have a beauty crisis — it has a health crisis (including mental health). And she's leading a brand focused on function, ritual, and longevity over hype.

The Ship Report, Tuesday, August 11, 2026Today we'll talk about a useful guideline for navigating in heavily tidal waters like the Columbia. It's called the Rule of 12ths.The Rule of 12ths divides the tidal cycle into segments, and shows when the most active times are happening. It offers a useful pattern to determine when the falling or rising tide will be exerting its strongest influence in the river.A good tool to decide when to go out in a small boat, what times to avoid, and how to use the tide to your advantage if you are traveling on the river.

CLICK HERE! To send us a message! Ask us a Question or just let us know what you think!Recorded sound is so normal now that we barely notice it, but the first time people heard a phonograph it felt impossible. Jack Stanley returns to unpack the social history of early sound recording: the disbelief, the tests, the accusations of fraud, and the moment audiences realized a machine could capture a human voice and play it back on command. We talk about Edison's instincts for showmanship and why the phonograph succeeds not just as an invention, but as a public spectacle.From there we follow the medium as it grows up. Wax grooves, cylinders, and discs turn a novelty into a product people bring into the home, changing what music access looks like for everyday listeners who may never see an opera house or Broadway stage. We dig into the birth of the modern recording industry through Columbia, Victor, and the gramophone era, including the power of branding, the Nipper image, and the surprising economics of early records when a few minutes of music can cost a week's pay.The conversation also gets honest about culture and conflict: John Philip Sousa's “canned music” complaints, the shock of early jazz on record, the Great Migration's role in spreading new sounds, and the barriers Black musicians face even as their styles get copied and sold. We close with Edison's aggressive marketing ideas like the Edison Realism Test, plus Diamond Disc technology, World War I material shortages, and why these fragile artifacts still matter. If you enjoy deep dives into phonograph history and the origins of the music business, subscribe, share the episode, and leave us a review.

Rassegna stampa economico-finanziaria dell'11 Agosto 2026, strutturata per macro-temi e basata sulle principali testate giornalistiche nazionali.Energia, geopolitica e materie primeTestate: Repubblica / Corriere della Sera / Il Foglio / Il Riformista / AvvenireLo Stretto di Hormuz torna a essere il principale premio geopolitico incorporato nei prezzi energetici. Il negoziato tra Iran, Oman e Stati Uniti non riesce ancora a normalizzare la situazione e il Brent risale sopra gli 86 dollari al barile, mentre il gas europeo TTF registra un aumento del 5,7%, portandosi a circa 58,8 euro per MWh.Attraverso Hormuz transita normalmente circa un quinto del petrolio mondiale. La riserva strategica americana è inoltre scesa a 298,7 milioni di barili, il livello più basso dal 1983, riducendo il margine di Washington per compensare un nuovo shock attraverso il rilascio delle scorte.Il traffico nello Stretto risulta inferiore di circa il 95% rispetto ai livelli precedenti al conflitto. Il Brent aveva raggiunto circa 120 dollari in marzo, con un aumento del 65%, prima di ridiscendere nell'area 82-83 dollari.La crisi pesa anche sui produttori del Golfo. Adnoc Gas registra un utile trimestrale di 665 milioni di dollari, meno della metà rispetto all'anno precedente, mentre Saudi Aramco chiude con circa 32,7 miliardi di dollari di utile, in calo del 4%.Sul fronte russo-ucraino, gli attacchi contro raffinerie e infrastrutture energetiche russe mantengono un secondo premio di rischio sui mercati. Il messaggio per imprese e investitori è chiaro: un petrolio strutturalmente sostenuto dall'incertezza geopolitica favorisce il settore energetico, ma aumenta contemporaneamente trasporti, inflazione importata e volatilità.Transizione energetica, rinnovabili e nuovo nucleareTestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / MF / Gazzetta del MezzogiornoParte operativamente il FerX, uno dei passaggi più rilevanti della giornata per gli investimenti energetici italiani. Le procedure riguardano complessivamente 27,15 GW di nuova capacità rinnovabile con potenza superiore a 1 MW.Le domande per la qualificazione preliminare possono essere presentate dal 25 agosto, mentre per partecipare alla prima asta la richiesta dovrà essere presentata entro il 30 settembre. Gli impianti fino a 1 MW potranno invece accedere direttamente agli incentivi.Il meccanismo introduce requisiti finanziari e industriali più stringenti e prevede criteri che limitano la dipendenza da componentistica proveniente da Paesi terzi. L'obiettivo è quindi non soltanto aumentare la capacità rinnovabile, ma anche favorire una filiera industriale europea.Sul fronte dell'idrogeno vengono indicati 400 milioni di euro di sostegno e un contingente incentivabile fino a 200.000 tonnellate annue di capacità produttiva.Leonardo amplia intanto la propria presenza nel nucleare americano. Leonardo DRS realizzerà un polo produttivo di oltre 13.000 metri quadrati in Connecticut, operativo dall'inizio del 2027, e dispone di commesse potenziali superiori a 3 miliardi di dollari per il programma dei sottomarini nucleari Columbia.I risultati trimestrali rafforzano il quadro: ricavi a 913 milioni di dollari, +10%, Ebitda rettificato +33%, utile netto da 59 a 86 milioni e backlog record di 5,1 miliardi di dollari. Difesa, energia e nucleare stanno quindi convergendo in una filiera industriale ad alto valore aggiunto.Intelligenza artificiale, robotica e nuova industriaTestate: MF / La StampaI robot umanoidi entrano nella fase finanziaria della loro crescita. La cinese Unitree Robotics prepara la quotazione allo Star Market di Shanghai con l'obiettivo di raccogliere fino a 6,1 miliardi di yuan, circa 1 miliardo di dollari.La valutazione complessiva attesa è vicina a 9 miliardi di dollari. Nel 2025 Unitree ha registrato oltre 1,7 miliardi di yuan di ricavi, mentre nel primo trimestre del 2026 il fatturato è cresciuto del 68%.Nel primo semestre 2026 le spedizioni mondiali di robot umanoidi avrebbero raggiunto circa 19.100 unità, oltre tre volte quelle dello stesso periodo dell'anno precedente.In Italia il mercato della robotica umanoide viene stimato intorno a 3,5 miliardi di euro, trasformando quello che fino a pochi mesi fa era soprattutto un tema tecnologico in un vero nuovo segmento industriale e finanziario.Meta spinge intanto verso un'AI più aperta e meno concentrata, attraverso modelli open source e un possibile fondo da 1 miliardo di dollari per sostenere comunità e iniziative collegate all'intelligenza artificiale aperta.Il messaggio di fondo è che AI, robotica, semiconduttori, sensoristica, software ed energia stanno diventando parti della stessa filiera industriale. Per gli investitori il tema è quindi molto più ampio del singolo “titolo AI”.Imprese, fisco e regolamentazioneTestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / MF / Il Giornale / Italia OggiLa nuova disciplina fiscale sulle auto aziendali rischia di aumentare il carico anche sui veicoli elettrici. Dopo cinque anni di utilizzo è prevista una maggiorazione del 50% della tassazione, senza distinzione tra motorizzazioni.Secondo Aniasa potrebbero essere interessate circa 12.000 vetture, delle quali circa il 60% elettriche. La misura potrebbe incentivare una sostituzione più frequente delle flotte, con un aumento dei costi per le imprese ma anche una maggiore disponibilità di elettriche usate sul mercato secondario.Sul fronte dei carburanti, tra marzo e luglio la Guardia di Finanza ha rilevato 2.279 violazioni su 3.428 interventi, pari al 66,5%. Complessivamente sono stati effettuati circa 4.800 controlli e sequestrate circa 20.000 tonnellate di prodotti energetici.Il rafforzamento dei controlli rappresenta un elemento positivo per gli operatori regolari, soprattutto in una fase di prezzi elevati nella quale le frodi fiscali possono trasformarsi in una forma significativa di concorrenza sleale.UniCredit perde invece in appello nel contenzioso fiscale relativo alle quote della Banca d'Italia, con una richiesta di rimborso di circa 399,6 milioni di euro. Un caso analogo riguarda Generali per circa 75,55 milioni.Dal 2027 sono inoltre previsti 30 milioni di euro all'anno per la digitalizzazione della giustizia, destinati a sistemi informatici, sicurezza, manutenzione e assistenza. Una misura limitata in valore assoluto, ma potenzialmente importante per ridurre tempi e costi amministrativi.Lavoro, welfare, sanità e demografiaTestate: Repubblica / Italia Oggi / Il Fatto QuotidianoLa natalità italiana resta strettamente collegata a lavoro, casa e disponibilità di servizi. L'età media al primo figlio ha ormai superato i 32 anni, mentre la fecondità è scesa intorno a 1,14 figli per donna, contro oltre 1,6 in Francia.L'analisi sposta quindi l'attenzione dagli incentivi una tantum verso infrastrutture permanenti: asili, abitazioni accessibili, continuità occupazionale e congedi.Dal punto di vista economico, meno nascite significano in prospettiva meno forza lavoro e un rapporto più elevato tra pensionati e occupati. Politiche su asili, servizi, mobilità e abitazioni possono invece aumentare contemporaneamente natalità e partecipazione femminile al mercato del lavoro.Nasce inoltre una grande copertura sanitaria per oltre 1,2 milioni di lavoratori della scuola, attraverso un contratto da circa 320 milioni di euro affidato a UniSalute, Intesa Sanpaolo Protezione e Poste Assicura.La copertura prevede, tra le altre prestazioni, rimborsi per maternità e fino a 500 euro mensili in caso di non autosufficienza permanente. Il welfare contrattuale continua quindi a spostare una quota crescente della protezione sociale verso coperture collettive integrative.Sulle liste d'attesa sanitarie emergono invece criticità. Nel Lazio, nel primo semestre 2026, il rispetto dei tempi sarebbe fermo al 78,5% per le prime visite e all'84,6% per gli esami diagnostici, contro una soglia normativa superiore al 90%.Clima, acqua, agricoltura e infrastruttureTestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / Avvenire / Gazzetta del MezzogiornoLa siccità nel bacino del Po assume una dimensione economica rilevante. La portata del fiume è scesa a circa un terzo della norma e 101 Comuni di Piemonte e Lombardia risultano in stato d'emergenza.In diverse stazioni del Po le riduzioni della portata si avvicinano al 70% rispetto alle medie storiche. Nell'area del Delta l'intrusione salina risale inoltre per circa 25 chilometri, con conseguenze sull'irrigazione.Anche i principali laghi del Nord mostrano livelli molto bassi: Maggiore al 6%, Como al 7%, Iseo al 13% e Idro al 5%, mentre il Garda si mantiene più resiliente intorno al 47%.La crisi rappresenta un rischio per agricoltura, allevamento, industria e produzione alimentare, ma allo stesso tempo apre un nuovo ciclo potenziale di investimenti in reti idriche, accumulo, irrigazione di precisione e riuso dell'acqua.Sul fronte della qualità delle acque, il 34% dei 391 campionamenti realizzati da Goletta Verde risulta oltre i limiti di legge. Vengono inoltre indicati 514 agglomerati urbani critici, che coinvolgono circa 14 milioni di abitanti, per insufficienze delle reti fognarie o degli impianti di depurazione.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the upcoming events Clear Admit is hosting. We plan to do a livestream event on Tuesday, September 1, ahead of the Round 1 deadlines. This event is for participants to ask any questions they have for their Round 1 strategy. Graham and Alex will be hosting, as usual. You can subscribe to Clear Admit's YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@ClearAdmitMBA Later in September, Clear Admit will also host several more webinar events featuring admissions professionals from all the top MBA programs. Signups for those events are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham highlighted a recently published resource that covers all the 2026 Early and Round 1 deadlines for top MBA programs. On September 9, several programs, including Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, and Columbia have their first-round deadlines. Clear Admit continues its Adcom Q&A series. This week Graham notes a Q&A with Chicago / Booth. Graham also highlighted several podcast Q&As that are being released, regularly. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected two ApplyWire entries. This week's first MBA admissions candidate is from India and has a 332 GRE score. They are concerned that they have not worked for more traditional big brand businesses. This week's second MBA applicant has a liberal arts degree and makes no mention of a standardized test. We really encourage them to take the GMAT or GRE. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.

August 9 2026; 7am: The new monthly employment report revealed that the U.S. lost an unexpected 23,000 jobs in July when economists originally anticipated a gain of 83,000 jobs. Plus, job numbers from May and June were revised down sharply by 103,000, suggesting the job market may be weaker than previously understood. This news comes on top of Americans already struggling with a housing shortage and the high cost of groceries and gasoline, made worse by the war in Iran. As the midterms rapidly approach, a new survey found that the majority of Americans view rising living costs as the biggest barrier to a better life, with 60% of respondents saying they wanted greater financial security.

Anthony Rispo came up on the progressive left — a gay man who found a home in an ideology that rewarded his grievance, teal hair and half-mohawk included. Then the pandemic, BLM, and the campus orthodoxy around him stopped adding up, and he read his way out. Now a writer, independent researcher, and Columbia psychology graduate studying cognitive neuroscience, he maps the wiring beneath our politics: identity fusion, moral conviction, selective empathy, and the resentment Nietzsche named. We get into why the left cancels hardest in the name of compassion, why “power and privilege” became a substitute for a self, how the same rigidity shows up on the right, and what common sense on borders and belonging really means.(00:00) Palestinians Then Vs Now(00:35) Opening Conversation(04:20) Anthony's Origin Story(11:35) From Woke to Doubt(27:56) Losing Friends Finding Voice(37:15) Psychology of Ideology(54:54) Clarity Over Conformity(58:33) Nuance Through Exposure(01:02:44) Individualism Vs The Tribe(01:08:18) Intersectionality Critique(01:14:54) From 9/11 to Academia(01:24:42) The Problem with No BordersGuest LinksInstagram: @anthonyrispoSubstack: rispo.substack.comConnect with UsJoin RATH AcademyStart the Free 7-Day Self-Esteem ResetFollow us on InstagramJoin our membership Friends of the TruthWatch All Episodes

Audio Recording Friendship Rev. Tim Chang Download Sermon OutlineSpeaker: Rev. Tim ChangSermon Series: ProverbsProverbs 13:20; 22:24-25; 18:24; 17:17; 27:6 (ESV)13:20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.22:24 Make no friendship with a man given to anger, nor go with a wrathful man,25 lest you learn his ways and entangle yourself in a snare.18:24 A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.17:17 A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.27:6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy.Sermon OutlineWisdom helps us to see…1. We need good friendsProverbs 13:20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.Proverbs 22:24–25 [24] Make no friendship with a man given to anger, nor go with a wrathful man, [25] lest you learn his ways and entangle yourself in a snare.2. We need to be a good friendProverbs 18:24 A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.Proverbs 17:17 A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.Proverbs 27:6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy.3. We have a perfect friendProverbs 17:17 A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.Proverbs 18:24 A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.John 15:15-16 [15] No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. [16] You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abideJohn 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.Proverbs 27:6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend;Prayer of ConfessionJesus, it is a beautiful gift that you call us your friends. Your love for us has been constant. Your commitment to us has never wavered. Everything you do is for our ultimate good. But we confess that we are not the friend that you have been to us. Too often, our commitment to you depends on our circumstances. Rather than loving others with faithful commitment, we often keep them at arm's length. Forgive us for receiving the benefits of your friendship while neglecting you. Help us to see that your faithful wounds were for our good, so that, having received your friendship, we might become the faithful friends you call us to be. Amen.Questions for ReflectionWhat connected with you from the sermon or the passage?Proverbs says we can “learn the ways” of the people we're closest to. Where have you seen that happen whether in your own life or in someone else's?The Bible teaches us that we shouldn't isolate themselves from the world but should be intentional about our closest friendships. How do you personally balance those two callings? Where do you find that balance challenging? Friendship is more about commitment rather than convenience. How is that different from the way our culture often thinks about friendship? Where do you see relationships becoming transactional? How do you discern the difference between a boundary that gives protection from an unhealthy relationship and one that simply avoids discomfort?Jesus calls his disciples “friends” in John 15. What does it mean to you that the Son of God chooses to call you, his friend?As someone who has been loved by the perfect Friend, what is one practical way you can reflect that friendship this week? Is there someone you need to pursue, forgive, encourage, serve, or speak truth to in love? What do you sense God calling you to do from this passage?

This week, hosts Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot talk with author Erin Osmon about her new book on "heartland rock." She argues that artists like John Mellencamp and Tom Petty filled stadiums in the 1980s, but also pushed back against the politics of the Reagan era. The hosts also pay tribute to Irish troubadour Glen Hansard.Join our Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/3sivr9TBecome a member on Patreon: https://bit.ly/3slWZvcSign up for our newsletter: https://bit.ly/4frcVZoMake a donation via PayPal: https://bit.ly/3dmt9lUSend us a Voice Memo: Desktop: bit.ly/2RyD5Ah Mobile: sayhi.chat/soundops Featured Songs:Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, "I Won't Back Down," Full Moon Fever, MCA, 1989The Beatles, "With a Little Help from My Friends," Sgt.

Sometimes, on an island, the only witness is the water. In January of 1980, a brilliant Columbia doctor went to her home on Nantucket's remote east end carrying the weight of a life's work, a possible medical breakthrough, and a kind of urgency the people around her struggled to understand. By the next morning, she was gone. No ferry record. No plane tickets. No clear path away from the house. Just a trail of clues that seemed to point in every direction except the answer.
