"The accumulation of these malignant and reactive cells, that's what causes the lymph nodes to get big. That's why they grow. And that's why the classic presentation is persistent, painless, enlarged lymph nodes. So when we think of the pathophysiology of Hodgkin lymphoma, there are really two processes contributing to the presentation: One is the physical effects of enlarging lymph nodes or the involved organs. The second is the systemic inflammatory response generated by it and its surrounding immune environment," ONS member Victoria Krogg, DNP, APRN-CNP, AOCNP®, nurse practitioner at the Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute in Columbus, OH, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, TCTCN™, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about an overview of Hodgkin lymphoma for oncology nurses.

Highlights From This Episode "Hodgkin lymphoma can be diagnosed at virtually any age but is more common in younger patients as well as older adults. It kind of skips middle-aged people, but it occurs in our geriatric population as well. There are different prognostic implications depending on the group of patients that are diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma. As far as risk factors ... Hodgkin lymphoma is not considered a hereditary disease. There's not a specific gene we know of today that can be passed down to children and put them at risk. But if there is a first-degree relative affected by a lymphoma, we do find that noteworthy. We do consider it a risk factor. But that risk factor isn't necessarily a hereditary component so much as it is having that same genetic susceptibility to Hodgkin's or perhaps sharing common environmental exposures." TS 5:46 "Sometimes the subtypes of Hodgkin lymphoma can vary in terms of presentation. It's certainly not textbook how someone can present. But generally, we worry about enlarged lymph nodes, especially if they are notably enlarged to the point where someone can even see them when they're standing a few feet away from that individual. ... We also worry about what we call B symptoms, related to B lymphocytes, such as unexplained and persistent fevers, drenching night sweats, unexplained weight loss, and new progressive fatigue. ... Interestingly, there is a phenomenon where sometimes people who have an underlying Hodgkin lymphoma will experience lymph node pain or tenderness when they drink alcohol. It's kind of a unique presenting symptom. But I also want to point out that you don't have to have all of these symptoms. A lot of patients are relatively asymptomatic, meaning without symptoms." TS 8:37 "It's always important to consider if there is any very obvious infectious or inflammatory correlate that could explain the enlarged lymph node. Something I've seen in my practice is someone gets a flu vaccine in their right arm and then a couple of days later they notice a lump in their right armpit. And yeah, it might be a flared lymph node, but they also had a vaccine in their arm recently, which would stimulate your lymph node, because the purpose of the vaccine is to have an effect on the immune system. So I always want to make sure—is there something really obvious that could explain these lymph nodes being abnormal? A recent tattoo, recent injury, or infection proximal to where that enlarged lymph node is? So, you have to think of all of that when you're thinking of the differential diagnoses that come to mind." TS 19:19 "Nurses can be monumentally helpful with the education role with any patients who may have lymphoma. It would be helpful if nurses guide patients on the diagnostic process, providing support, guidance and encouragement, and of course, advocating for patients. Also, when you think of Hodgkin lymphoma and you think of the younger patients that are diagnosed with it, there's some additional supportive care that we need to consider, and we may need to refer them for fertility preservation. That can be very daunting for our young patients, so it's helpful to have nursing support in those situations." TS 22:55 "People think of Hodgkin lymphoma as a very treatable disease—and it can be very curable for certain patient populations—but it's not a 100% success rate. We do still have fatalities, so it's a very serious thing. I try to always educate my patients about seeking out care if they notice new lumps or bumps on their bodies. We can observe enlarged lymph nodes most easily on the neck, under the armpit, and in the groin area. If someone were to notice a lump in that area, short-term observation—keeping an eye on it for two weeks is fine—but if it persists past that, they should definitely seek care to get it evaluated." TS 33:18

This month, on Laura Flanders & Friends, we're taking a closer look at criminal justice—through the lens of abolition, accountability, and the power of the creative arts to tell fuller, truer stories. Across these conversations, a common thread emerges: what happens when we move beyond fear, beyond punishment, and toward systems rooted in dignity, truth, and possibility?This show is made possible thanks our members! To become a sustaining member go to https://LauraFlanders.org/donate Thank you for your continued support!Description: What happened when Illinois ended cash bail? As Laura's guests explain, this deeply discriminatory and unjust system puts “a ransom on people's heads,” disproportionately impacts Black and Brown people, and favors the wealthy who can buy their freedom while leaving the poor to languish in jail. Bail reform has faced tremendous pushback over the years, but Illinois implemented the first-of-its-kind Pretrial Fairness Act, ending cash bail statewide in 2023. The historic win didn't happen overnight. In this episode some of those most involved explain what it took and describe the surprising results. Sharone R. Mitchell Jr., the Cook County Chief Public Defender was the lead policy expert for the Coalition to End Money Bond. Mitchell also heads the state's largest public defender office. State Senator Robert Peters represents Illinois' 13th District and was one of the main sponsors of the Pretrial Fairness Act. He chairs the Senate Labor Committee. Bryce Covert followed this important and under-covered story for The Nation magazine. What has Illinois to teach the nation? All that plus Laura's commentary: Illinois has moved out of the Middle Ages. What's holding the rest of the nation back?“I do think that there has been a severe backlash to the Black Lives Matter movement, to criminal justice reform that's pretty nationwide . . . That said, Illinois is out there doing this, and I think people are taking note . . . So as long as this stays in place and we have good data about the outcomes and people keep supporting it and don't give into the opposition that wants to push to roll it back, then we will have proof that this can happen, that this can work.” - Bryce Covert“Literally the hardest job I had was talking to mothers and grandmothers and partners about whether they should be paying this a thousand dollars for bond or a thousand dollars for rent. We were forcibly extracting money out of the people that needed it the most. And I'm so glad that we are now in a system where we realized that we can make these really important decisions without quite frankly putting ransoms on people's heads.” - Sharone R. Mitchell Jr.". . . The president was involved in criminal behavior. Rudy Giuliani was involved in criminal behavior. They had no problem being able to either pay out or pay within the legal system. Working class people on the other hand, many of them who are innocent, many of them who are just trying to live their life or trying to move on, they can't. A billionaire who's able to game the court system and be able to get out has no business trying to lecture the working class of this country.” - Robert PetersGuests:• Bryce Covert: Contributor, The Nation• Sharone R.

What if Christians have learned to expect defeat when Scripture teaches us to expect the victory of Christ's kingdom?“The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” — Habakkuk 2:14 In this episode of the Based Boomer Podcast, Mike DeVirgilio reflects on Iain Murray's The Puritan Hope and the historic Christian confidence in the advance of the gospel. From the Puritans and the Great Awakenings to the rise of pietism, dispensational pessimism, and modern evangelical retreat, Mike examines how Christians came to expect less from the Great Commission—and why that needs to change.Looking at Habakkuk 2:14, the kingdom of God, and Christ's command to disciple the nations, Mike argues that Christians should reject an escapist view of the faith and recover confidence that Christ is reigning now, His gospel is powerful, and His purposes in history will not fail.The Christian life is not about waiting for the gospel to lose. It is about living by faith rather than sight, building faithfully for generations to come, and trusting the promises of God.Christ is King. His kingdom is advancing. The gospel wins.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

Mpumalanga taxi boss Joe "Ferrari" Sibanyoni is continuing his testimony at the Madlanga Commission. Sibanyoni has told the Commission that he was in discussions with Putco to purchase 15 old buses. He says the buses were intended to be donated to the community through his foundation, mainly to assist with transporting mourners to funerals. The evidence comes as the Commission examines WhatsApp messages exchanged shortly after 51 Putco buses were torched at three depots in Mpumalanga's Nkangala District in January 2025.Sibanyoni says the discussions to purchase the buses had started before the buses were burnt.

This week we talk about EU membership, trade deals, and association.We also discuss Australia, Ursula von der Leyen, and Brussels.Recommended Book: Being You by Anil SethTranscriptJust off the coast of Newfoundland, there's a small group of islands that belongs to France. Saint-Pierre and Miquelon are close enough to Canada that, at their nearest point, the two countries are separated by only a few kilometers of water.In September, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney met French President Emmanuel Macron on these islands. The two leaders could stand on French territory and talk about a partnership with the European Union, while Canada was visible across the water.A few days earlier, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen had made a similar, but possibly more significant proposal. Speaking before the European Parliament, with Carney in the room, she said she wanted to open the door for Canada to become the EU's first “associate member.”Depending on which headline you read about the statement, this may have sounded like Canada might be joining the EU, joining it partway, or joining an entirely new version of it. Soon after, Australia's trade minister said his country was “on the same page” as Canada regarding closer ties, and the European Parliament's president then suggested Australia and New Zealand might follow Canada's lead.Now, despite all those headlines and interpretations, there's one problem with all these stated ambitions: the European Union does not have an established category called associate member. No one has agreed on what rights or obligations an associate member country would have, and figuring that out—and getting some kind of resolution passed—would be necessary for anyone, including Canada and Australia, to get closer in that way with the EU.What I'd like to talk about today is why this proposal was made, what it could mean if it eventually becomes more concrete, and whatever happens, what these statements tell us about the way global alliances are changing.—The EU has 27 member countries, but there are already a few different ways to be connected to it.Full member nations help write EU law and send representatives to its institutions. They all participate in the single market, which means goods, services, money, and people can move across member nation borders under shared rules.The single market is distinct from the customs union, which sets common tariffs on goods imported from elsewhere. Both are distinct from the Schengen area, which removes most routine passport checks between participating countries. And nations that use the euro are another group entirely. These arrangements tend to overlap, but they're not the same thing, and membership in one does not automatically mean membership in all the others.There are also countries outside the EU that participate in some of its systems. Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein belong to the European Economic Area and are part of the single market. To do that they have to accept many EU rules, although they don't vote on those rules as that would require full EU membership. Switzerland has built its own set of bilateral arrangements with the EU. And Britain, after leaving the union, has also negotiated a special trade and cooperation agreement with it.So there are precedents for a country having a deep relationship with the EU without being a member. But there's no ready-made ‘associate' slot that Canada can just step into.There's a legal distinction here, too. The EU treaties say that a European state can apply to become a member, and Canada is not a European state. The treaties separately allow the EU to make association agreements with countries outside the bloc, and it already has many kinds of agreements with external partners. An association agreement, though, does not make that partner a member of the Union.“Associate member” could eventually become a useful name for a new collection of rights and obligations held by nations outside those existing parameters. For now, though, it's a political invitation and a negotiating idea, not a defined legal status.All that said, Canada isn't starting from scratch on this. Its trade agreement with the EU, called CETA, has been applied provisionally since 2017. Most of it is already in effect, though ten EU countries still haven't completed the ratification required for the whole of the agreement to go into force.CETA removes most tariffs and opens some opportunities for companies on each side, but it doesn't make Canada part of the single market. A Canadian product can be easier to sell in Europe without a Canadian worker gaining a general right to take a job there. That's part of the distinction between a trade deal and the sort of relationship people sometimes imagine when they hear the phrase “union membership.”Canada also joined Horizon Europe, the EU's major research funding program, in 2024. It has a security and defense partnership with the EU, and it became the first country outside Europe to join an EU defense financing initiative called SAFE.That means some of the proposed future relationship already exists, but in pieces rather than as a unified whole. The question is whether those pieces can be connected and extended into something much more ambitious and holistic.Now, important to understanding the why of all this is understanding Canada's relationship with the US, and how that relationship has been fraying, of late.Canada's economy is deeply integrated with that of the United States. Its proximity to the massive US market has brought enormous benefits, but it also means a change in American trade policy can have an immediate and dramatic effect on Canadian businesses. President Donald Trump's tariffs and repeated suggestions that Canada should become the 51st state have made that dependence more than a little politically uncomfortable.For Carney, a closer European relationship offers a way to reduce the risk of having too many economic and security decisions shaped by one increasingly unpredictable and at times belligerent neighboring country. Europe has its own reasons to be interested in closer ties. Canada has energy and critical minerals, industrial capacity, research institutions, and a role in the Arctic. Both sides also support Ukraine and work together through NATO and other forums.Von der Leyen has proposed cooperation with Canada on batteries, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, advanced manufacturing, and defense production. Carney has added ideas about financial services and opportunities for young people to live, work, and study across the Atlantic.This isn't a plan to move Canada's economy from one continent to another. Geography still matters. A car part crossing the US-Canada border may be part of a production chain built up over decades; a new trade agreement with Europe doesn't instantly recreate or replace that chain.But diversification doesn't require replacing one partner with another. It can mean having additional buyers, suppliers, research collaborators, and sources of investment, so that a disruption in one relationship is less damaging.The costs and limits matter here, too. Canadian opposition leader Pierre Poilievre has warned that deeper EU ties could mean higher costs and Canadian industries being regulated from Brussels. His motives in bringing this up are likely at least partly political, but it's a question worth asking: if Canada wants more access to a tightly regulated European market, which European standards would it have to accept as a tradeoff?Europe would face its own questions. EU governments have spent decades building shared rules among countries that accept reciprocal obligations. They may not want to give a distant partner the benefits of those standards without comparable commitments. The fact that ten member states have yet to ratify the existing Canada trade agreement is a reminder that closer ties require more than an enthusiastic speech from the Commission president; there are real, practical realities to consider, here.If something like this were to move forward, we don't yet know whether the final result would be one major agreement or a series of smaller ones. The latter might be easier to negotiate: a defense arrangement could advance while mobility or food standards remain unresolved, for instance. But calling the package an associate membership could also raise expectations that every difficult issue will be solved at once, which probably isn't realistic.And none of this automatically grants Canadians the right to settle anywhere in the EU, or Europeans the right to settle in Canada. Carney has talked about expanding opportunities for young people, but the scope of any mobility arrangement would have to be negotiated. A youth work or study program would be a very different proposition from full freedom of movement.And as all of this has played out, Australia has watched with interest.Australian Trade Minister Don Farrell said Australia and Canada were “on the same page” about building stronger ties with Europe, and that he would watch what Carney did. Then European Parliament President Roberta Metsola named Australia and New Zealand as examples of countries with which the EU could deepen its relationship.Those remarks generated another round of headlines about countries joining Europe, but as with Canada, things are more complicated than most of the reporting on this would suggest.Australia and the EU finished negotiating a free trade agreement earlier this year, but it still has to be signed and brought into force. They also have a security and defense partnership and have discussed bringing Australia into Horizon Europe. At a September meeting, their leaders focused on those steps, along with potential agreements related to critical minerals and technology.All of which illustrates the difference between a political signal and a policy commitment. Whether the involved negotiators eventually decide on some kind of associate terminology is arguably less consequential than the real-deal agreements being worked out piecemeal, today.If the associate model were to become a real thing and catch on with Canada and Australia, that could open the doors for more and deeper collaborations by the EU with non-member states, though, which could be long-term impactful, even if it took a while to spin-up.Looking across the channel at Britain, we find evidence that an associate membership with the EU might have real appeal, even for union skeptics.In a YouGov survey published ten years after the Brexit vote, 57% of Britons said leaving had been the wrong decision, and 55% said they supported rejoining the EU in principle. But when asked about rejoining without Britain's old exceptions to EU rules, support fell to 35%. Meanwhile, 59% supported a closer relationship without rejoining the EU, its single market, or its customs union.Those results don't tell us what Britons would think of a hypothetical Canadian-style agreement, but they do suggest that the details are important. “Closer ties” can sound attractive to people who are uncomfortable with shared laws, movement across borders, and which institutions get the final say, because it suggests more benefits with fewer organizational constraints. There's a non-zero chance any new, tighter agreement with Canada would face similar, detail-oriented issues, and a mix of approval and disapproval from Canadian citizenry.Show Noteshttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/sep/16/von-der-leyen-mark-carney-canada-eu-first-associate-memberhttps://www.politico.eu/article/australia-on-the-same-page-as-canada-on-deepening-eu-ties-says-key-minister-trade-don-farrell/https://yougov.com/en-gb/articles/54925-what-do-britons-think-of-brexit-10-years-since-the-referendumhttps://sentiers.media/the-map-fiction-missed/https://cyprus.representation.ec.europa.eu/news/2026-state-union-address-president-von-der-leyen-2026-09-16_enhttps://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/speeches/2026/09/17/prime-minister-carney-delivers-address-european-parliamenthttps://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/speeches/2026/09/20/prime-minister-carney-delivers-remarks-conclude-his-visit-saint-pierre-ethttps://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/news-releases/2026/09/17/prime-minister-carney-deepens-ties-trusted-allies-visit-france-andhttps://audiovisual.ec.europa.eu/en/media/video/I-294577https://eur-lex.europa.eu/EN/legal-content/summary/treaty-on-european-union-joining-the-eu.htmlhttps://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/ALL/ This is a public episode.

President Xi Jinping has called for efforts to advance the Peaceful China Initiative to a higher level to ensure steady and sustained progress in Chinese modernization.Xi, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks in his recent instruction on the initiative. His instruction was conveyed at a working conference on the initiative held on Monday in Beijing.Since the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, China has made significant progress in building a safe country, further consolidating a sound environment in which people live and work in peace and society remains stable and orderly, Xi said, adding that China has become one of the safest countries in the world.On the new journey, China should firmly implement a holistic approach to national security and uphold and strengthen the Party's overall leadership in this area, Xi said.He stressed better coordinating development and security, combining punishment with prevention and addressing both the symptoms and root causes of problems.He also called for strengthening legal support and leveraging technology to enhance the construction of the national security system and capabilities, and guarding against and defusing various risks.According to the CPC Central Committee's Commission for Political and Legal Affairs, China recorded its lowest number of criminal and homicide cases this century in 2025, while the public's satisfaction rate regarding safety reached 98.23 percent, remaining above 98 percent for a sixth consecutive year.The downward trend of such cases continued in the first half of the year, with criminal cases falling 16.5 percent year-on-year, homicide cases down 11.4 percent, and gun-related cases dropping 53.3 percent.Authorities have continued regular operations against organized crime and intensified efforts to combat telecommunications and online fraud, while working to prevent risks in areas including finance, real estate and labor relations.Beyond combating crime, grassroots mechanisms for resolving disputes have also been expanded. About 9.76 million disputes were resolved through such mechanisms in 2025 and another 7.13 million in the first half of this year. The total number of petitions in 2025 fell to its lowest level this century, according to the commission.The Peaceful China Initiative will place greater emphasis on risk monitoring and early warning, prevention-oriented public security governance, and the resolution of disputes at the grassroots level, the meeting said. Efforts will also be intensified to combat serious violent crimes, gun — and explosives-related offenses, human trafficking and telecom fraud, while grassroots disputes will be addressed at an early stage to prevent them from escalating into serious criminal cases.

This month, on Laura Flanders & Friends, we're taking a closer look at criminal justice—through the lens of abolition, accountability, and the power of the creative arts to tell fuller, truer stories. This week we'll look closely at what's wrong with cash bail—and how one state chose to end it. Subscribe to Laura on Substack Description: What happened when Illinois ended cash bail? As Laura's guests explain, this deeply discriminatory and unjust system puts “a ransom on people's heads,” disproportionately impacts Black and Brown people, and favors the wealthy who can buy their freedom while leaving the poor to languish in jail. Bail reform has faced tremendous pushback over the years, but Illinois implemented the first-of-its-kind Pretrial Fairness Act, ending cash bail statewide in 2023. The historic win didn't happen overnight. In this episode some of those most involved explain what it took and describe the surprising results. Sharone R. Mitchell Jr., the Cook County Chief Public Defender was the lead policy expert for the Coalition to End Money Bond. Mitchell also heads the state's largest public defender office. State Senator Robert Peters represents Illinois' 13th District and was one of the main sponsors of the Pretrial Fairness Act. He chairs the Senate Labor Committee. Bryce Covert followed this important and under-covered story for The Nation magazine. What has Illinois to teach the nation? All that plus Laura's commentary: Illinois has moved out of the Middle Ages. What's holding the rest of the nation back? Guests: • Bryce Covert: Contributor, The Nation • Sharone R. Mitchell Jr.: Chief Public Defender Cook County, Illinois • Robert Peters: Illinois State Senator, 13th District   Watch the episode cut airing on PBS stations across the country at our YouTube channel Subscribe to episode notes via Patreon   Related Laura Flanders Show Episodes: •  Corporate Prison Reform Will Not Keep Us Safe: A Report from Los Angeles: Watch / Listen: Podcast Episode • Crime & Migration: An Abolitionist Plan for Immigration Justice: Watch / Listen: Podcast Episode • D.A.

In this episode, we talk with Geoff Curtis, author of Embracing Your Own Purgatory, about what happens when the identity you built around your work disappears. Geoff describes the armor he built around his career, and how he used work to avoid dealing with harder things in his own life. We talk about destination addiction (always chasing the next achievement without stopping to ask why) and what he thinks the antidote is. Geoff also shares why he believes productivity and progress aren’t the same thing, and how he’d approach a career transition today, in a job market where trust between companies and employees feels harder to build. We close on authenticity at work, and whether most workplace cultures are actually ready for it. Our Guest: Geoff Curtis Geoff Curtis is former executive vice president, corporate affairs and chief communications officer at Horizon Therapeutics, a biotechnology company focused on researching and developing treatments for rare diseases. During his nearly 30-year health care communications career, he has worked in various roles on both the client and agency side. Geoff is a committed mentor and coach to young professionals and undergraduate college students, and an avid philanthropist committed to education equity and access. He and his wife recently launched Future Voices Collective, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting first-generation college students pursuing careers in public relations and communications. Additionally, Geoff recently published his first book, Embracing Your Own Purgatory.  He received a Bachelor of Arts in English from Lake Forest College, a Master of Arts from DePaul University in public relations and advertising and completed the Leadership and Society Initiative fellowship at the University of Chicago. Geoff currently serves on the board of trustees for Lake Forest College, is a member of the board of directors for Hope Chicago and the Illinois Biotechnology Innovation Organization; is a member of the board of advisors for The Plank Center for Leadership in Public Relations; serves as Vice Chair for the Commission on Public Relations Education; is a member of the Dean's Advisory Council for the DePaul University School of Communications; serves on the advisory committee for the University of Chicago Leadership and Society Initiative and on the Graham Council for the University of Chicago Graham School.

As of midday, today, September 28th, members of the Orange Order remained at Drumcree in Portadown. The Parades Commission had given them permission to march down the nationalist Garvaghy Road yesterday morning with a limit of 35 participants. Residents on the Garvaghy Road took a legal challenge against the Commission’s decision but this failed. Residents had organised a gathering to blockade the march – such a gathering is illegal under parading legislation in the North. Stormont’s First Minister Michelle O’Neill of Sinn Féin was among those who took part. The Orange Order made several attempts to march but were prevented by the PSNI. There has not been an Orange Order parade through the area since 1998; the order had failed in its bid to get permission from the Parades Commission adjudication bid every year until now. Jerry spoke to Kerry Sinn Féin TD and front bench spokesperson Pa Daly.

Patient advocacy groups have criticised the proposed commission of investigation into the care received by children with scoliosis and spina bifida, describing it as “extraordinarily narrow”.This comes after the Government agreed last year to hold a statutory inquiry into spina bifida and scoliosis services following a number of controversies at the children's hospital group, including unauthorised implantation of springs in children with scoliosis, alleged waiting-list irregularities and unnecessary hip surgeries.Joining Ciara to discuss this is Amanda Coughlan, co-lead of the Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Paediatric Advocacy Group.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 27 septembre 2026.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste, ancien président de la Commission des Affaires étrangères de l'Assemblée nationale.Nicole Gnesotto, vice-présidente de l'Institut Jacques Delors.Marc-Olivier Padis, directeur des études de la fondation Terra Nova.LA FLAMBÉE DU PRIX DE L'ESSENCE ET SES CONSÉQUENCESPOLITIQUESLa flambée des prix des carburants s'est invitée dans l'agenda du Premier ministre, qui met la dernière main à son budget. Elle fait redouter une crise sociale qui percuterait la course à l'Elysée et pourrait profiter au Rassemblement national et à La France insoumise. Face à « une colère immense » en France, la secrétaire générale de la CGT Sophie Binet a exhorté à augmenter les salaires et bloquer les prix du carburant, demandant au gouvernement d'arrêter « les cadeaux aux plus riches et aux plus grandes entreprises ». Le gouvernement assure œuvrer pour la « maîtrise des prix », comme le lui a enjoint le 16 septembre, le président de la République. Mais les marges d'action paraissent singulièrement limitées, entre l'état des finances publiques et l'impossibilité d'influer sur le principal facteur de la varation des prix, la guerre au Moyen-Orient.Pour beaucoup de pays, y compris la France, le dilemme est le même : faut-il laisser les consommateurs supporter le fardeau de l'inflation, ce qui nourrit leur ressentiment et pèse sur la croissance, ou prendre des mesures de soutien et charger la barque de finances publiques déjà sous pression? En réalité, les choix économiques dépendent bien souvent des échéances électorales. Or, les politiques le savent, il n'y a jamais loin de la pompe aux urnes.Après une réunion le 18 septembre à l'Elysée avec des chefs de partis et des candidats à la présidentielle, le Président a martelé que les prix de l'énergie étaient dus « intégralement aux guerres». La crise va durer et le prix du pétrole « va rythmer la vie du pays », confirmait Emmanuel Macron devant la presse après la réunion, plusieurs représentants des forces politiques évoquant la probabilité d'un litre d'essence à 3 euros à la fin de l'année. Hanté par la crainte d'un retour des « Gilets jaunes », Matignon a annoncé mardi la prolongation des aides ciblées, réservées aux Français les plus touchés en particulier l'agriculture, le BTP et les pêcheurs. Le nouveau dispositif prévoit une aide de 100 euros pour les gros rouleurs (soit 5,5 millions de Français éligibles contre 3 millions actuellement) et la prolongation du chèque énergie, pour un coût total de 450 millions d'euros. Une réponse trop timorée aux yeux de l'opposition qui réclame des mesures plus ambitieuses pour soulager le pouvoir d'achat tandis que selon un sondage Elabe/BFM, 70% des Français estiment que les mesures d'aides sur le carburant annoncées sont« insuffisantes ». Si le sociologue à l'université de Caen, Patrick Vassort, spécialiste des mouvements sociaux observe qu'« un certain nombre de feux sont au vert pour qu'une mobilisation se constitue », il rappelle toutefois qu'à la veille d'une année électorale, grèves et manifestations ont tendance à ralentir, les citoyens se trouvant dans l'attente des propositions des candidats.LES EUROPÉENS ET L'UKRAINEAlors que l'Ukraine célébrait le 24 août les 35 ans de son indépendance, le Premier ministre britannique, Andy Burnham a choisi de se rendre à Kyiv pour sa première visite à l'étranger avec, le président du Conseil européen Antonio Costa, dont c'était la cinquième visite dans le pays. Andy Burnham n'est pas arrivé les mains vides. Il a annoncé qu'en coordination avec la France et après elle, il avait autorisé le missilier européen MBDA à livrer ses secrets de fabrication à l'Ukraine, afin qu'elle puisse construire sur son sol des missiles de croisière Storm Shadow (qu'on appelle Scalp en France). Depuis Kyiv, Burnham a également coprésidé, en visioconférence, avec le président français et le chancelier allemand, un sommet de la « coalition des volontaires » les 35 pays européens lancée conjointement en 2025 par son prédécesseur Keir Starmer et Emmanuel Macron. Les trois plus grandes puissances européennes considèrent comme contraire à leurs intérêts une victoire de la Russie sur l'Ukraine.Le même jour, la Commission européenne a annoncé débloquer une nouvelle tranche du prêt de 90 milliards d'euros sur deux ans (2026 et 2027) promis à Kyiv ; elle porte sur 6,1 milliards d'euros « pour les systèmes de défense aérienne, les munitions et les radars dont l'Ukraine a un besoin urgent », précise son communiqué. Cette somme s'ajoute aux 16 milliards d'euros déjà débloqués en 2026, dont 8,35 milliards ont été déboursés. Les responsables européens évoquent déjà un nouveau programme d'aide d'une ampleur comparable, qui pourrait être financé par les avoirs russes gelés. Déjà, l'armée de Kyiv utilise les centres logistiques d'autres pays, comme la Pologne, l'Allemagne et la Roumanie, tandis que les entreprises ukrainiennes du secteur de la défense ont installé leur production dans toute l'Europe, avec par exemple une usine de carburant pour missiles balistiques en cours de construction au Danemark.Au Royaume-Uni, le soutien à l'Ukraine est défendu par les différents gouvernements depuis 2022, indépendamment de leur couleur politique, et il reste largement partagé, malgré les critiques de certains partis populistes et d'extrême droite. Au sein de la population aussi, le soutien reste fort, alors qu'une certaine lassitude peut s'observer dans d'autres pays européens. Un sondage YouGov de février 2026 indiquait par exemple que 70% des Britanniques souhaitaient une victoire de l'Ukraine, contre seulement 45% des Français.Les mois qui viennent pourraient voir la victoire de forces électorales plus à l'écoute de la Russie de Poutine dans plusieurs pays clefs de l'Europe.

Le gouvernement fédéral du Nigeria a ordonné, il y a plusieurs mois, une enquête diligentée par la Commission nationale de régulation des activités d'exploration et de production pétrolières (NUPRC) dans une communauté abritant des installations de Shell. Depuis octobre 2025, du gaz s'est soudainement mis à jaillir dans le village de Bille à la surface, s'échappant à travers des canalisations vétustes, enfouies sous terre depuis des décennies. Ce qui semblait au départ être un incident isolé s'est rapidement propagé dans toute la localité : aujourd'hui un bruit constant, des bulles de gaz provenant des profondeurs sont devenus partie intégrante du quotidien. Notre correspondant au Nigeria, Moïse Gomis, s'est donc rendu à Bille, dans ce grand village de pêcheurs, accessible uniquement par bateau à 45 km de Port Harcourt. De notre correspondant au Nigeria, D'un pas alerte, Diri Tomitonwa se dirige vers une grande villa blanche avec des colonnes et des balcons dorés. Chaussé de sandales en plastique, ce trentenaire zigzague pour éviter le sol glissant ou vaseux. D'un geste de la main, Diri fait signe de s'arrêter : « Je vous assure que si vous restez moins de 30 secondes, vous ne pourrez pas rester ici. Je vous donne 30 secondes, vous ne pourrez pas rester. À cause de l'odeur, qui est vraiment insupportable. Mais si vous jetez un œil dans la maison, vous verrez qu'il n'y a personne. Ils sont tous partis ailleurs. Peut-être qu'ils reviendront plus tard dans la soirée », explique-t-il. Diri est un des leaders de la fédération des jeunes de Bille. Dès qu'une odeur de gaz est signalée, il se déplace souvent sans masque pour se rendre compte de la situation. Comme devant la maison d'Anthony Digbani où des sons étranges sont perceptibles. « Vous voyez, quand cette chose émet ce bruit, ça envahit toute la pièce. La vapeur, l'odeur, c'est insupportable. J'ai alors pris un bloc de ciment et je l'ai mis au-dessus de ce trou, pour que le gaz ne puisse plus sortir. Mais ça n'a pas marché ; ça continue de sortir. On a peur. On a vraiment peur », déclare l'habitant. Plus de la moitié des puits touchés par la pollution Ces grondements sourds proviennent du sol de Bille. Ils s'échappent des canalisations et aussi des puits. Diri désigne un puits proche de la maison d'Anthony Blessing. À la surface de l'eau, des bulles se forment sous l'effet du gaz. Diri Tomitonwa raconte : « La première chose que nous avons constatée, c'était la présence d'algues spirogyras. Nous avons donc pris notre temps. Nous avons nettoyé le puits à plusieurs reprises. Moins de deux ou trois semaines plus tard, ces mêmes algues étaient de nouveau visibles. Nous avons donc également fourni de nouveaux seaux. Mais soudain, nous avons commencé à voir des bulles sortir des puits. C'était l'année dernière. À partir de là, pour ce puits en particulier, nous avons simplement demandé aux gens de ne plus boire son eau. » Et selon Diri, plus de la moitié des puits de Bille sont touchés par cette pollution. Beaucoup de ses voisins n'ont pas les moyens de s'acheter des packs de sachets d'eau, vendus à moins de 2 euros l'unité.

In her official answer to the ODC, Judge Carmen Mullen says she was just a good citizen worried about a mentally ill man's safety. In Part Two of True Sunlight #166, Investigative Journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell play the recording from that December 2017 night in Port Royal Plantation and let her own words do the talking. Mullen tells deputies she has sentenced Ernie "the Attorney" before. She questions whether he has a lease and says she told the homeowner to press charges, then introduces herself to that homeowner… for the first time…?  She says "you gotta get rid of him" and asks to "find some charges." According to the police report, she also suggests she could sign the warrant herself. We also dig into the threat-filled lawsuit against Ernie that Mullen dismissed months earlier, and a Hilton Head real estate agent named Moose Rini whose name keeps coming up in police reports, trial transcripts, and sentencing memos.  Judge Mullen's hearing before the Commission on Judicial Conduct is Tuesday, September 29, in Columbia and our team will be there to capture and share all the details.  Let's Dive In…

Former Election Commissioner Ashok Lavasa challenges the framing of the Election Commission's internal rift. Asked by Abhinandan Sekhri whether the “dissenting notes” amount to genuine dissent, Lavasa flips the premise, arguing that if two Election Commissioners share one view and a third disagrees, it is the third (the Chief Election Commissioner in this case) who is dissenting, not the two being labelled as such.The conversation then turns to the changes made to Form 6 during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR). Lavasa argues that the Commission overstepped its authority regardless of whether all three commissioners were in agreement. As he says, “The Election Commission of India is not competent to make these changes, because they fall under the principle of subordinate legislation, which ought to be approved by the competent authority — in this case, the government.”Manisha Pande brings up the case of Goa, where election officers who had verified wrongly-deleted voters were reportedly unable to restore them to the rolls due to what the Commission described as a “software” limitation. Lavasa is unconvinced that this explanation absolves the Commission of responsibility, offering the segment's standout line: “Whenever you use technology, it is used to support the law. It cannot impede the enforcement of law or the taking of action in accordance with the law.”Produced by Amit Pandey with production assistance from Hassan Bilal & Sound by Anil Kumar.

Since the fall of Adam and Eve, humankind is completely blind in spiritual matters and an enemy of God (1 Corinthians 2:14 & Genesis 8:21). Our only hope is for the Holy Spirit to make us alive together with Christ (Ephesians 2:5). In the 16th century, just like today, the Concordians battled against man's inherent desire to have some credit for his salvation. Conversion occurs by means, the Word and Sacraments, and it is God's will that ALL would hear the Word and believe (Psalm 95:8; Romans 10:17).    Rev. Dr. Rick Serina, Associate Executive Director of the Commission on Theology and Church Relations, St. Louis, MO, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study free will. Find your copy of the Book of Concord - Concordia Reader's Edition at cph.org or read online at bookofconcord.org. Study the Lutheran Confession of Faith found in the Book of Concord with lively discussions led by host Rev. Brady Finnern, President of the LCMS Minnesota North District, and guest LCMS pastors. Join us as these Christ-confessing Concordians read through and discuss our Lutheran doctrine in the Book of Concord in order to gain a deeper understanding of our Lutheran faith and practical application for our vocations.

All week, Andrew has asked listeners to comment on and show up for California's marine protected area review. Today he answers the question that comes after: once the meeting ends and the news coverage stops, how do you find out if anything actually changed? He works through four practical questions every ocean advocate should know how to answer. First, where to find the current rules for any of the 124 MPAs in California's network (the California Department of Fish and Wildlife's own MPA pages). Second, why a Fish and Game Commission vote isn't the finish line, since approved changes still go through the state's formal rulemaking process before they're enforceable, which can take months. Third, how the rules get enforced on the ground, including MPA Watch, a statewide community science program where trained volunteers record how people use the coast inside and outside MPAs. Fourth, what happens to a petition that doesn't get adopted, and why the 10-year adaptive management cycle means it can come back. Andrew closes with the bigger picture from this week: MPA design brings together natural science, social science, and the voices of everyone who uses the coast, and everyone deserves to feel safe speaking. He wants to hear from California listeners about MPA Watch and this week's episodes. Next week, Dr. Judith Weis joins the show to talk marine pollution. Takeaways: CDFW's MPA pages are the authoritative, current source for maps and rules at every MPA in California. A Commission vote starts the formal rulemaking process; a change only becomes enforceable once that process is complete. The gap between approval and enforcement can take months, and that time is spent making sure a rule holds up in law. MPA Watch trains volunteers to record human activity inside and outside MPAs, and CDFW and research partners use that data. About 2,000 volunteers had joined MPA Watch by 2019. California reviews its MPA network every 10 years, so a petition that doesn't pass this cycle can be revisited with new science and data. MPA design draws on natural science, social science, and community input together. You can take part by checking the rules, joining MPA Watch, or simply attending a Commission meeting to observe.

"Nurses are the front line. Oncology nurses see their patients almost all day. If you're noticing that anxiety is causing significant distress or anxiety is disrupting a patient's ability to concentrate during medical conversations or decision-making—anytime you're seeing significant distress or disruption to functioning, that's a pretty good indicator that referral to a psychiatric nurse and psychiatric care could be very helpful for that patient," Amber Altidor, DNP, APRN-FPA, PMHNP-BC, assistant professor at Rush University College of Nursing and psychiatric nurse practitioner at Optimal Mental Health PLLC and Rush MD Anderson Cancer Center in Chicago, IL, told Katie Hubbard, MSN, RN, OCN®, NPD-BC, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about oncology and psychiatric nurse collaboration to support psychosocial health.

And many patients have not previously had a serious health condition, so in the beginning, they're just kind of focused on survival. Get the biopsy done. Have the conversations with teams. Have the imaging that's recommended. Many, many appointments. The medical appointment burden is very high. Sometimes patients are not processing what's happening in the moment. Sometimes we also see some lingering symptoms of trauma as care goes on as well. Sometimes patients are having intrusive thoughts and flashbacks to their cancer experience too." TS 4:55 "The National Comprehensive Cancer Network, or NCCN as we commonly refer to it, created a distress thermometer that can be provided to patients each during each encounter at a cancer center. It has an actual written thermometer on it where patients can rate their distress from 0–10: 0 being none, 10 being the most extreme that they could imagine. A score of 4 or higher for most cancer centers would indicate that the patient needs further evaluation and referral to psychosocial or supportive care services. There's also a section on the distress thermometer handout where patients can identify specific areas for concern. And that's really helpful for the healthcare team because we can take a look at exactly what that patient is noting as contributing to their distress." TS 9:33 "When we start to notice that there are significant sleep issues that are not responding to just psychotherapy on its own, or if there is significant depression, anxiety symptoms that are moderate to severe, or other underlying psychiatric concerns that are more chronic in nature ... at that point, it's important for the multidisciplinary team to start thinking about a referral to psychiatry and medication management. Medications can be very effective for treating those symptoms, so it's important for nurses to assess using the skills that we discussed to identify those categories for severity and think about medication management at that point." TS 16:01 "I think that it's important to remember that there's a stigma about cancer, but there's also a stigma about accessing mental health care as well. As nurses, we definitely want to be aware of that and address that with patients. Do you have any specific concerns about what it means to be someone who is seeking therapy services or someone who's seeking medication for symptom management? What does that mean to you, to your community, to others in your religion? Talk with me about this stigma that you're experiencing. Patients need a chance to process that. Oncology nurses certainly can identify if a patient has some ambivalence towards seeking psychosocial care and explore that with them or refer them to a therapist or a psychologist." TS 23:09 "Grief is not linear, so it's important to educate patients after you tell them about the stages that we talked about earlier. Remind them that grief is not linear. It's very common to at one time feel like you're angry, and then also feel sad, then also go back to a sense of, 'This is not real. This is not happening.' So remind your patients that it's not linear. This is something that we can continue to talk about, continue to process, so that they can feel a sense of acceptance. We don't want grief to become complicated and just kind of persist long term. We talked about how there's that survival mode that patients are in, so they don't always have a chance to process in the moment." TS 30:14

What is a nation—and why does that question matter for Christians, missions, and the Great Commission?In this episode of The World View, Alex Kocman responds to the “Which Way America?” debate featuring Al Mohler, Doug Wilson, Joe Rigney, and Paul Miller. Before Christians debate what a nation should do, Alex argues, we first need to define what a nation actually is.Drawing from Genesis 10, Matthew 28, Acts 17, Revelation, Psalm 2, and the history of Christian missions, Alex examines the biblical concept of nations and the roles of land, lineage, language, law, liturgy, and culture.What does Scripture mean by “the nations”? And how should that shape Christian thinking about nationhood, missions, ordered loves, and the lordship of Christ?Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

[REIFFUSION] Bienvenue dans les Fabuleux Destins. Cette semaine, en quatre épisodes, nous allons vous raconter l'histoire de l'assassinat du 35ème président des Etats-Unis, John Fitzgerald Kennedy. C'est l'un des plus grands mystères du 20ème siècle, et un scandale politique d'une ampleur inégalée. De l'enquête qui, en 1967, bouleversa l'opinion publique et fit trembler jusqu'au sommet de la CIA au décès d'un autre membre du clan Kennedy, découvrez son incroyable destin. L'enquête qui secoua l'Amérique Jim Garrison se réveille en sursaut, pris d'un frisson, et constate qu'il s'est profondément endormi dans le fauteuil de son bureau. Ses mains sont moites, il grelotte malgré la chaleur environnante et ses yeux ne s'habituent à l'obscurité qu'après plusieurs secondes. L'horloge affiche 3h00 du matin, la pièce est sens dessus-dessous, le sol couvert de dossiers tandis que les étagères débordent de notes entassées au fil des nuits blanches. Cela lui a pris 9 semaines, mais il en est venu à bout : Jim Garisson, le procureur de la Nouvelle Orléans, a lu les 28 volumes du rapport de la Commission Warren… et ce qu'il y a trouvé lui glace le sang. Pour lui, il est évident que les conclusions de cette enquête ne répondent qu'à une seule part du mystère, à savoir comment, et par qui le président Kennedy a été assassiné. Mais les 16 000 pages du rapport esquivent continuellement la question essentielle : pourquoi ? Garrison se met au travail sans attendre : il décide de ranger un à un ses dossiers, trier ses notes, réétudier la chronologie des témoignages… et commence à lister toutes les questions qu'il se pose désormais : pourquoi est-ce qu'aucun policier ni aucun membre des services secrets n'a été placé sur les toits de Dallas le jour de l'assassinat ? Pourquoi n'existe-t-il aucun enregistrement, aucun procès-verbal de l'interrogatoire d'Oswald en garde à vue ? Pourquoi la première autopsie du président fait état de blessures par balles venues de l'avant et de l'arrière, tandis que la seconde mentionne uniquement des balles tirées dans le dos ? Et pourquoi la Commission a-t-elle choisi de ne tenir compte que de la seconde autopsie ?

In part one of this two-part episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell finally get an answer to the question they've asked for years: when will South Carolina's Office of Disciplinary Counsel (ODC) and Commission on Judicial Conduct (CJC) act on the ethics complaints against 14th Circuit Court Judge Carmen Tevis Mullen? At 10 a.m. Sept. 29, 2026, Judge Mullen will appear before the CJC in Columbia to defend herself against at least four counts of judicial misconduct stemming from a 2017 tenant dispute in her gated Hilton Head Island neighborhood. According to a police report, she wanted a man known as “Ernie the Attorney” arrested, searched for probable cause, and even suggested she could sign a warrant on the spot. Judge Mullen claims she only wanted Ernie to get mental health care. Mandy and Liz examine the charging document and her answers. In Part Two, the receipts come out. Let's Dive In…

In this episode of AML Conversations, host John Byrne sits down with former federal prosecutor, 9/11 Commission staff member, and former Department of Homeland Security Inspector General John Roth to discuss the evolution of terrorist financing controls, the challenges facing anti-money laundering professionals, and the critical role inspectors general play in promoting accountability across government. Drawing on his work co-authoring the 9/11 Commission's terrorist financing monograph and his experience at DHS, Roth reflects on how AML and CTF frameworks have changed since 9/11, why financial institutions have made significant progress, and why emerging threats such as cryptocurrency, prediction markets, and changes to beneficial ownership transparency continue to present challenges. The conversation then turns to government oversight and Roth's recent work on restoring the independence of inspectors general. He explains why independent watchdogs are essential to uncovering waste, fraud, abuse, and misconduct, and shares his concerns about the removal of inspectors general, reduced oversight capacity, and the importance of congressional engagement and public awareness.

John Azar fled Syria at 16 in the middle of a civil war, arrived in Charlotte, North Carolina not speaking a word of English, and eventually built his way to an MBA in finance and a career in commercial real estate. Then came 2008. His first company collapsed with no clients, no money, and a brand new baby at home.He rebuilt, more than once. Along the way, his own therapist gave him a label he still carries: toxic optimist. He believes, almost unshakably, in people's capacity to change, and he's had to learn what that belief costs him when the other person never actually does the work.On this episode of FINE is a 4-Letter Word, John talks with Lori Saitz about what failure actually means once you separate the event from the emotion attached to it, why he believes mastery requires periods of genuine imbalance, and what he tells business leaders facing circumstances completely outside their control.What You'll Take AwayWhy believing in people's inherent goodness can work against you, according to what John's own therapist told himWhy failure is whatever you decide it is, and why the event itself is different from the emotion you attach to itWhat John did in 2008 with no clients, no money, and a newborn at home, and what it teaches about controlling only what's actually yours to controlWhy sometimes the answer isn't what to add to your life, but what to stop doingWhy mastery requires periods of genuine imbalance, and why that imbalance has to come in sustainable chunks rather than foreverGuest BioJohn Azar is a public speaker, coach, and founder. He speaks and coaches about entrepreneurship, resilience, and the myth surrounding balance and failure. He founded Peak15 Capital, a private equity firm specializing in commercial real estate, with talks drawing on two decades of deal-making, including work on a cumulative portfolio worth over $2 billion nationwide.

In a world increasingly marked by fragmentation, distraction, and disconnection, what does it look like for the Church to live differently?In this session from the CGN International Leadership Conference, Pastor and author Heath Hardesty explores the idea that we are living in an “age of disintegration” and points to the hope found in Colossians 1: “In Him all things hold together.”Heath unpacks how apprenticeship to Jesus forms us into whole, integrated people through union with Christ, abiding in Him, obedience, and becoming more like our Master. He also challenges the Church to resist the fragmented patterns of our culture by becoming a people shaped by the coherent story of Scripture and a witness that holds together beauty, goodness, and truth.The session concludes with a conversation with Brian Brodersen about All Things Together, discipleship, spiritual formation, and practical rhythms for cultivating a life with Jesus.In a fragmented world, the Church has an opportunity to reflect a different way of living—not because we can hold everything together ourselves, but because we belong to the One in whom all things hold together.

I've been having a lot of conversations lately, both private and public, about Faire. Some of you love the platform. Some of you hate it. And a lot of you are somewhere in the middle, trying to figure out your next move. Should I get on Faire? Should I get off? Should I let it run on cruise control?There's a lot of noise right now, and a lot of nuance to every situation. Here's the part that gets missed: most of our Paper Camp students and alumni sell on Faire, and most of them are not paying commission on the large majority of their orders. There's no trick to it. They use Faire as a checkout, not as a sales strategy.In this episode, you'll learn:What Faire genuinely does well Why I have no problem with Faire's commissionsThe two best ways brands use FaireThe four things Paper Camp alumni specifically do consistently with Faire that helps keep more money in their pocketsHow one Proof to Product client pulled abandoned cart and past order data to build a personalized three-day campaign for a single store, and landed a $2,500 orderThe one question to ask every time Faire rolls out something newToday's episode is brought to you by our Retailer Roundtable interview series.
