“Colorectal cancer treatment is not just about eliminating a disease. It's about preserving life quality and empowering patients through every phase. So I think nurses are really at the forefront that we can do that in the oncology nursing space. So from early detection to survivorship, the journey is deeply personal. Precision medicine, compassionate care, and informed decision-making are reshaping outcomes. Treatment's just not about protocols. It's about people,” ONS member Kris Mathey, DNP, APRN-CNP, AOCNP®, gastrointestinal medical oncology nurse practitioner at The James Cancer Hospital of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about colorectal cancer treatment.

Highlights From This Episode “Colorectal cancer has several different types, but there is one that dominates the landscape, and that is adenocarcinoma. So I think most of us have heard that. It's fairly common, and it accounts for about 95% of all colorectal cancers. It begins in the glandular cells lining the colon or rectum and often develops from polyps, in particular adenomatous polyps.” TS 1:41 “One of the biomarkers that we'll most commonly hear about is KRAS or NRAS mutations. This indicates tumor genetics, and these mutations suggest resistance to our EGFR inhibitors such as cetuximab. BRAF mutation or V600E is a more aggressive tumor subtype, and those may respond to our BRAF targeted therapy. … And then our MSI-high or MMR-deficient—microsatellite instability or mismatch repair deficiency—that really predicts an immunotherapy response and may indicate Lynch syndrome, which is a huge genetic component that takes a whole other level of counseling and genetic testing with our patients as well.” TS 6:02 “Polypectomy or a local excision—that removes our small tumors or polyps during that colonoscopy. And that's what's used for those stage 0 or early stage I cancers. A colectomy removes part or all of the colon. This may be open or laparoscopic. It can include a hemicolectomy, a segmental resection, or a total colectomy, so where you take out the entire part of the colon. A proctectomy removes part or all of the rectum. This may include a low anterior resection, also known as an LAR … or an abdominal perineal resection, which is an APR. … Colostomy or ileostomy—that diverts the stool to an external bag via stoma. Sometimes this is temporary or permanent depending on the type of surgery.” TS 14:11 “We'll have our patients say, ‘Hey, I want immunotherapy therapy. I see commercials on it that it works so well.' We have to make sure that these patients are good candidates for it, also that we're treating them adequately. We need to make sure that they have those biomarkers, so as I mentioned, the MSI-high or MMR tumors. Our MSS-stable tumors—they may benefit from newer combinations or clinical trials. Metastatic disease—immunotherapy may be used alone or with other treatments. And then in the neoadjuvant setting, some trials are really showing promising results using immunotherapy prior to surgery.” TS 25:38 “Antibody-drug conjugates are really an exciting frontier in all cancer treatments as well as colorectal cancer treatment. This is used mainly for patients with advanced or treatment-resistant disease, and these therapies combine the targeted power of monoclonal antibodies with the cell-killing ability of potent chemotherapy agents. They're still on the horizon for the most part in colorectal cancer. However, there is only one approved antibody-drug conjugate, or ADC, at this time, and that's trastuzumab deruxtecan, or Enhertu. That's approved for any solid tumor, such as colorectal cancer with HER2 IHC 3+. So again, looking back at that pathology in those markers, making sure that you have that HER2 mutation and that IHC.” TS 35:00 “There are a few myths going around about colorectal cancer treatment that can lead to confusion or even delayed care. One myth is only older men get colorectal cancer. As you heard me talk in my previous podcast on screening, unfortunately, this isn't necessarily true. Colorectal cancer affects both men and women and our cases in the younger population are rising. So our screening guidelines have changed to age 45 because we are seeing it in the younger population.” TS 45:54

The Seattle City Council confirmed 14 members to the Renters’ Commission on Tuesday, following a controversial delay after Councilmembers Rob Saka and Sara Nelson failed to show up for a previous vote on Commission appointments. Their absence forced an unusual cancellation of the vote because the housing committee didn’t reach quorum. Some people think this was influenced by an email former councilmember Cathy Moore sent, urging her former colleagues to delay the vote. In this episode of Soundside, we catch up with Councilmember Mark Solomon, who was appointed to Seattle’s District 2 seat after Tammy Morales left the position in January. He's also serving as vice chair of the Housing and Human Services Committee... and is one of the people Moore tried to email before that first vote. Guest: Mark Solomon, Seattle City Councilmember appointed to represent District 2.

Not so fast! We unpack the surprise EU-US trade deal that has everyone shouting sellout but we see it differently. In this episode, we take a deeper look at what really went down in the Trump-triggered tariff negotiations. The headlines scream defeat: Europe folds, Trump wins, 15% tariffs slapped on all EU goods while the US gets full access to the European market. But is that the full story? We break it down, the EU runs a $200 billion trade surplus with the US. So why would they agree to this? Because sometimes in poker, the smartest move is folding a bad hand to fight another day. We also lift the lid on the civil war brewing within Europe: the Commission vs. the member states, nationalism vs. federalism, free trade idealism vs. geopolitical realism. Germany wants to protect its cars. France its booze. Ireland? Our pharma sector's now hanging in the balance. We talk street-fighting Trump vs. rulebook Europe, why this deal might actually be good news for investment in Ireland. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Les taux d'intérêt vont-ils baisser aux États-Unis ? Le comité de politique monétaire de la réserve fédérale américaine (la banque centrale du pays), se réunit mardi et mercredi à Washington pour actualiser (ou pas) ses taux directeurs. N'en déplaise au président Donald Trump, les économistes ne s'attendent pas à ce que ces taux baissent. Généralement, la Réserve fédérale laisse entendre en amont si elle prévoit de modifier ses taux. Elle n'a pas donné d'indices en ce sens lors de la dernière réunion de son comité de politique monétaire en juin. Les investisseurs ne s'attendent donc pas à une baisse des taux directeurs ce mercredi. Ces derniers sont d'actuellement entre 4,25 et 4,5%, environ deux fois plus que dans l'Union européenne par exemple. Inflation L'une des principales missions de la Réserve fédérale, en plus de la maîtrise du chômage, est de garder des prix stables. Or la politique protectionniste de Donald Trump et ses hausses de droits de douane tirent les prix vers le haut : l'inflation aux États-Unis reste ces derniers mois au-dessus de la barre des 2% fixée par la Fed. Diminuer les taux maintenant pourrait encourager la hausse des prix. C'est pourquoi la Fed s'est refusée à le faire pour l'instant, au grand regret du président américain Donald Trump. Le milliardaire, de retour à la Maison Blanche depuis janvier, estime que des taux directeurs plus faibles permettraient aux États-Unis de payer moins d'intérêts sur le remboursement de leur colossale dette publique. Lors de son premier mandat (2017-2021), Donald Trump se plaignait déjà des taux directeurs de la Réserve fédérale, mais ces derniers mois, il a intensifié ses critiques, jusqu'à se rendre en personne au siège de la Fed jeudi 24 juillet, pour faire pression sur le président de la Réserve fédérale, Jerome Powell. « J'adorerais qu'il baisse les taux d'intérêt », lui a-t-il dit devant la presse, en lui assénant une grande tape dans le dos. Incertitudes des droits de douane Donald Trump a même menacé de le limoger, après l'avoir lui-même nommé à ce poste (en 2017). Ces menaces répétées ne plaisent pas beaucoup aux marchés financiers, qui voient dans l'indépendance de la Fed une garantie de stabilité de l'économie. Mais la procédure pour évincer Jerome Powell serait longue et difficile, et risquerait de fragiliser la confiance dans l'économie américaine, alors Donald Trump a renoncé. « Ce n'est pas nécessaire » de l'évincer, estimait-il jeudi 24 juillet aux côtés de l'intéressé. « Car je pense qu'il va prendre la bonne décision. Peut-être un peu tard, mais il va prendre la bonne décision », a déclaré le président des États-Unis. La « bonne décision », selon lui, serait de ramener à seulement 1,5% seulement les taux directeurs dès maintenant. Une telle baisse a peu de chances d'intervenir dans l'immédiat. Les décisions de la Réserve fédérale dépendront en partie des droits de douane décidés par Donald Trump. Un accord de principe a été conclu dimanche entre Donald Trump et la présidente de la Commission européenne, Ursula von der Leyen, visant à taxer à hauteur de 15% les produits européens entrant sur le marché états-unien. Les négociations se poursuivent par ailleurs avec la Chine ce mercredi, pour prolonger l'accord trouvé précédemment. Elles patinent avec des dizaines d'autres pays, pour qui l'ultimatum a été fixé à vendredi 1er août, avec la menace de surtaxes allant jusqu'à 50%. Si la Maison Blanche mettait cette menace à exécution, cela risquerait, là-encore, d'alimenter l'inflation et ne plaiderait donc pas en faveur d'une baisse des taux. À moins d'un retournement du marché de l'emploi aux États-Unis, qui ne s'est pas produit pour l'instant.

Take cuts to farm payments of over €20,000 – proposals are also being made to fully withdraw farm subsidies from about 40,000 Irish farmers. Farmers over 65 in receipt of State pensions will lose their farm supports if the Commission's plan to reform the CAP is successful. Alan Matthews, Professor Emeritus of European Agricultural Policy, Trinity College Dublin, joined us to discuss.
Ever been asked—by a client or another agent—to cut your commission mid-deal? Or worse, right before closing? It's happening more and more, and in this episode we're sharing how to respond, how to prepare, and how to protect your paycheck without losing your professionalism (or your cool). Inspired by multiple messages and agent stories, we're diving into what we're calling the age of commission cutting. We're not talking about negotiating commission upfront—we're talking about after you've already agreed to terms, done the work, and someone wants you to just... give some of it away. We walk through real examples of buyer and listing agents being pressured into taking less, how to handle those phone calls in the moment (especially when you feel totally caught off guard), and why “just being nice” can cost you big time. Whether it's guilt-tripping, bad math, or a last-minute closing crisis, Katy and Alissa share how to protect yourself before it happens, why mindset and boundaries matter, and some super helpful scripts and phrases you can keep in your back pocket when you need to stand your ground. You'll also hear: Why commission is not part of the buyer/seller negotiation What to say when someone tries to guilt you into a cut The biggest mistake you can make when you're feeling bad for your client The difference between being kind and being a pushover How to do the math on what your time is really worth Get ready for a pep talk, some wild stories, and practical advice on how to stop treating your income like a favor. Products, People & Previous Episodes Mentioned: Episode 295: Why Buyer Agents Struggle to Get Paid Episode 232: Buyer Brokerage How-Tos Daryl Davis quote and article referenced Episode 296: Peaceful Partings Key Quotes/Takeaways “You're not a victim in a real estate transaction. You agreed to the terms—stand by them.” —Katy “Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.” —Alissa “Your commission isn't a bargaining chip. It's the price for the service you already delivered.” —Katy “Be kind, but stand firm. Those aren't mutually exclusive.” —Alissa “I don't need to pay you to stay in this deal. That's not my job.” —Alissa CTA: If this topic hit home, take a minute to revisit your buyer consults and listing presentations. Are you clearly outlining your value? Are your clients crystal clear on how and when you get paid? Don't wait until you're put on the spot.

Our conversation was wide-ranging, including an overview of the original 1619 Project of the New York Times, conceived of and edited by Nikole Hannah-Jones; how it was a departure from similar historical projects of the Times before it; the strengths of the 1619 Project; the particular shortcomings of the Project's claims about the economic consequences of slavery; the attempt by the 1619 Project to tie slavery to capitalism; the actual anti-slavery origins of capitalist theory, starting with Adam Smith; the anti-capitalism ante-bellum arguments in the philosophical defense of slavery; the flawed scholarship of the “New History of Capitalism” school; the Project's distortion of the importance of cotton to the American economy before the Civil War, and the strange rehabilitation of “King Cotton” theory; the criticisms of leading historians of the colonial and revolutionary era of Hannah-Jones's claims about the importance of slavery to support for the American Revolution in the South; the status of the “20 and odd” enslaved Blacks who were brought to Jamestown in 1619; the varied influence of the Sommersett ruling in the colonies; Lord Dunmore's famous declaration after the American Revolution had begun; Hannah-Jones's dismissive response to academic criticisms of her claims; that Hannah-Jones was correct in her assessment of Abraham Lincoln's advocacy of “colonization” as a solution to emancipation; the New York Times's strange unwillingness to correct its 1619 Project errors transparently, as it would otherwise do in other contexts; the explicit political and policy agenda behind the 1619 Project; the slow walking-back of some of the Project's most controversial claims via ghost-editing; the insertion of The 1619 Project in public school curricula; and how to develop a school history curriculum that does give a balanced treatment of the history of slavery and Reconstruction.

C dans l'air du 28 juillet 2025 - Droits de douane: Trump humilie l'EuropeC'est à l'issue d'un entretien express de tout juste une heure, en Écosse, que Donald Trump et Ursula von der Leyen, présidente de la Commission européenne, ont annoncé hier avoir trouvé un accord commercial entre les États-Unis et l'Union européenne. "Nous avons trouvé un accord", s'est félicité le président américain, n'hésitant pas à le qualifier de "plus grand jamais conclu en matière de commerce". Ursula von der Leyen a salué, pour sa part, un "bon accord" qui devrait "apporter de la stabilité".Au cœur de l'accord : les droits de douane. Washington s'engage à limiter à 15 % les taxes sur les produits européens importés, contre les 30 % initialement envisagés par Donald Trump. En contrepartie, Bruxelles renonce à toute riposte tarifaire et s'engage à injecter des sommes colossales dans l'économie américaine : 750 milliards de dollars d'achats d'énergie sur trois ans, ainsi que 650 milliards d'investissements, notamment dans l'implantation d'usines. Des achats d'équipements militaires sont également évoqués.En échange, plusieurs produits stratégiques — aéronautique, chimie, semi-conducteurs, agriculture et matières premières critiques — seront exemptés de droits de douane. La surtaxe sur les voitures européennes passera de 25 % à 15 %.L'accord doit encore être validé par les États membres. L'Allemagne, premier partenaire commercial des États-Unis en Europe, a salué l'initiative : "Nous avons su préserver nos intérêts fondamentaux", a estimé le chancelier Merz, tout en regrettant le manque d'avancées sur certains volets. L'Italie a également applaudi l'accord dans la soirée.En France, en revanche, le ministre délégué aux Affaires européennes a estimé que cet accord apporte "une stabilité temporaire" mais reste "déséquilibré" et a insisté sur la nécessité d'agir pour le "rééquilibrer", en particulier sur les services. Le Premier ministre François Bayrou a, lui, évoqué une "soumission" et a dénoncé "un jour sombre" alors que les réactions se multiplient dans la classe politique. "Fiasco politique, économique et moral", selon Marine Le Pen. "Tout est cédé à Donald Trump", d'après Jean-Luc Mélenchon.Alors, que contient cet accord commercial ? Comment se sont déroulées les négociations avec Donald Trump ? L'Europe cède-t-elle à une « extorsion mafieuse » de Donald Trump ? Pour Jean-Luc Demarty, ancien directeur général du Commerce extérieur et de l'Agriculture à la Commission européenne de 2011 à 2019, les méthodes utilisées par le président des États-Unis sont assez proches de celles de la mafia. Il a accordé à nos journalistes une longue interview.LES EXPERTS : - Richard WERLY - Correspondant France/Europe de Blick.fr- Florian LOUIS - Historien, spécialiste des relations internationales- Sylvie MATELLY - Economiste et directrice de l'Institut Jacques Delors- Sonia DRIDI - Correspondante à Washington pour France24 et la RTBF PRÉSENTATION : Caroline Roux - Axel de Tarlé - REDIFFUSION : du lundi au vendredi vers 23h40.PRODUCTION DES PODCASTS: Jean-Christophe ThiéfineRÉALISATION : Nicolas Ferraro, Bruno Piney, Franck Broqua, Alexandre Langeard, Corentin Son, Benoît LemoinePRODUCTION : France Télévisions / Maximal ProductionsRetrouvez C DANS L'AIR sur internet & les réseaux :INTERNET : francetv.frFACEBOOK : https://www.facebook.com/Cdanslairf5TWITTER : https://twitter.com/cdanslairINSTAGRAM : https://www.instagram.com/cdanslair/

Something interesting happened – or rather, didn’t happen – last week at a Seattle City Council committee meeting. There was supposed to be a vote on member appointments to the Seattle Renters’ Commission. That commission has seats for 15 members but currently only has five. The vote didn’t happen. That’s because Council President Sara Nelson and Councilmember Rob Saka failed to attend, leaving the committee shy of its three-member quorum. That sparked a lot of outrage, including from Councilmember Alexis Mercedes Rinck, who had this to say: “This isn’t a committee meeting any more. This is just a community meeting. It is council members’ chartered responsibility to be at these meetings. This is literally our job, so I find it deeply frustrating that people took time to leave their jobs in the middle of the day, yet not every member of the committee could show up to do theirs.” Many people have criticized the council members’ absence – and some are asking whether political motivations were involved. Soundside sat down with Seattle Times reporter David Kroman, and Seattle Renters' Commission Interim Co-Chair Kate Rubin to discuss.

Navigating Industry Volatility: How Insurance Agents Can Thrive in a Changing Medicare LandscapeThe latest episode of the Insurance Business Babes podcast brings together host Kathe Kline, co-host Joanna Wyckoff, and industry powerhouse Neil Reich for an honest discussion of the current turbulence in the Medicare insurance world. With plan exits, shrinking commissions, regulatory uncertainties, and unprecedented price hikes, agents must now adapt, diversify, and deepen relationships to stay successful.Industry Upheaval: What's Changing in Medicare AdvantageAccording to guest Neil Reich, the past year has brought volatility unlike anything he's seen in his 27-year career. Major Medicare Advantage carriers like Humana and Aetna have pulled out of some markets due to soaring medical loss ratios, leaving consumers scrambling for alternatives and further concentrating business among remaining giants like United. Commission structures are shifting, and the legal landscape is uncertain, with the Department of Justice and new CMS rules causing ongoing anxiety about the future of FMOs (Field Marketing Organizations).Diversification Is EssentialNeil isn't deterred by the disruption—instead, he emphasizes the need for insurance agents to diversify their offerings. His new agency, Care Connect Advisors, has quickly added Medicare Supplement plans, Index Universal Life, final expense, hospital indemnity (with popular guaranteed-issue options for ages 64-70), cancer, dental, and even annuities to the product mix. This mirrors Kathe and Joanna's advice that now, more than ever, agents should be “multi-product” — cross-selling to better serve clients and protect their own earnings in the face of shrinking Medicare Advantage opportunities.Relationship Building and Technology: The Agent's GoldmineStaying connected to clients is a major theme. The podcast highlights how agents are successfully blending manual outreach (calls and texts to educate and cross-sell) with automation (drip campaigns, retention videos, and CRM tools). Touchpoints aren't just for selling—they reinforce trust, increase retention, and open natural conversations about needs like hospital indemnity or annuities.The Path Ahead: AI, FMOs, and the Advisor MindsetWhile regulators mull the impact of overrides and marketing practices, agents are also looking to the future with AI poised to disrupt the sales process. Still, both Neil and the hosts remain optimistic: FMOs like Spark are evolving, offering powerful tech and support. The key message? Agents must evolve from “order takers” to true advisors—guiding clients comprehensively through industry changes and personalized solutions.In summary, claim your power as an agent by diversifying your product line, leveraging smart tech, nurturing relationships, and embracing your advisory role.

Send us a textIn this episode, Pastor Dom teaches us to honor God and man. Romans 1:2121 Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn't worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused.John 3:1616 “For this is how God loved the world: He gave[a] his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.James 4:88 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.Proverbs 3:99 Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the best part of everything you produce.1 Corinthians 6:18-2018 Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.Colossians 4:2 Colossians 4:22 Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving;Colossians 4:5-65 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. 6 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.John 15:12 12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.1 Peter 2:1717 Respect everyone, and love the family of believers…1 Samuel 2:30 30…for those who honor Me I will honor,…Revelation 4:11 11“You are worthy, O Lord, To receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created.”Romans 12:9-139 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor (hate)what is evil. Cling to what is good. 10 Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; 11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; 13 distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.Matthew 22:37-3937 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'

Le président burundais, Évariste Ndayishimiye, a été désigné le 17 juillet envoyé spécial de l'Union africaine pour le Sahel. Sa mission sera de renouer le dialogue avec les trois pays de l'Alliance des États du Sahel, à savoir le Niger, le Mali et le Burkina Faso, qui sont suspendus de l'organisation depuis les coups d'État. Pourquoi Évariste Ndayishimiye a-t-il été choisi ? La nouvelle gouvernance de l'Union africaine souhaite-t-elle davantage impliquer les chefs d'État en exercice dans la résolution des conflits sur le continent ? Liesl Louw-Vaudran est conseillère principale à l'International Crisis Group pour l'Union africaine. Elle est l'invitée de Pierre Firtion. RFI : Comment analysez-vous la nomination d'Évariste Ndayishimiye comme envoyé spécial de l'Union africaine pour le Sahel ? Liesl Louw-Vaudran : Ça peut être un peu surprenant parce que, en fait, ce n'est pas dans l'habitude qu'un président de l'Union africaine, donc, João Lourenço de l'Angola, nomme un autre président en exercice en tant qu'envoyé spécial. Mais ça montre quand même que cette question du Sahel et de l'AES est très importante pour l'Union africaine. Et le fait que ces trois pays soient suspendus de l'Union africaine – ils ont aussi quitté la Communauté économique des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest – est vraiment inquiétant. C'est presqu'existentiel pour l'unité africaine. Et l'Union africaine cherche depuis longtemps des moyens d'ouvrir le dialogue avec ces pays-là. Donc, c'est une très bonne chose que le président Lourenço lui-même prenne ça très au sérieux. Mais pourquoi avoir choisi le président burundais ? Le choix du président Évariste Ndayishimiye peut surprendre, comme je le disais, mais on pense que ça peut reposer sur plusieurs bases. Premièrement, ça peut créer une certaine continuité parce que le président burundais sera président de l'Union africaine l'année prochaine. Deuxièmement, il est aussi un ancien militaire, donc il sera peut-être plus à même de discuter avec les dirigeants de ces pays, même s'il est un peu d'une autre génération. Et je pense que, troisièmement, il est loin de la région, donc il peut être perçu comme plus neutre. Mais il faut dire qu'Évariste Ndayishimiye n'a pas vraiment d'expérience dans ce domaine de négociation, de dialogue. Il était président de la Communauté Économique des États de l'Afrique centrale aussi quand il y avait de nombreuses crises dans cette région. Donc, on n'a pas vu vraiment le fait qu'il a mis en œuvre sa capacité de dialogue. Donc, il manque de l'expérience. Quel va être précisément sa mission ? Ce sera d'abord, avant tout, on pourrait dire, de renouer le dialogue avec ces trois pays ? Je pense que c'est ça : c'est ouvrir le dialogue, créer la confiance, et puis faire des propositions certainement aux autres pays de l'Union africaine : comment engager ce processus de dialogue, comment aider les pays (si c'est possible). Et puis, éventuellement, réfléchir à leur retour. On parle là d'Évariste Ndayishimiye. En avril, c'était le Togolais Faure Gnassingbé qui a été nommé médiateur pour le conflit dans l'est de la RDC. Nommer des chefs d'État en exercice, c'est une des marques de fabrique de la nouvelle gouvernance de l'Union africaine ? Oui, c'est quelque chose de nouveau. Mais je pense que le choix de la Commission de l'UA, c'est d'abord d'essayer de trouver des anciens chefs d'État. Aujourd'hui, par exemple, pour le Soudan, pour d'autres crises, on réfléchit à essayer de trouver des anciens chefs d'État avec suffisamment de poids sur le continent. Mais il faut dire qu'il y a très peu d'options. Choisir un président en exercice, ça a aussi ses difficultés. On l'a vu avec l'Angola et la crise des Grands Lacs. Ce sont des chefs d'États qui ont leurs propres problèmes à gérer dans leur propre pays. Mais on a l'impression que l'Union africaine est un peu à court de solutions. Je pense que l'Union africaine cherche des mécanismes qui peuvent être efficaces, mais ce n'est pas facile. Sur les grandes crises du moment, l'Union africaine peine toujours à faire entendre sa voix et à imposer ses vues. Qu'est-ce qui bloque concrètement ? Vraiment, je pense que, concrètement, ce qui bloque, c'est d'abord la capacité de l'institution qui a vraiment un faible budget, un faible staff, et de multiples crises à gérer. Il y a un problème de subsidiarité. C'est-à-dire que, dans beaucoup de crises, c'est la région elle-même qui la prend en charge. Et très souvent, il y a tension entre l'Union africaine à Addis-Abeba et les régions, comme par exemple avec les Grands Lacs, avec la Communauté de développement d'Afrique australe (SADC), la Communauté est-africaine (EAC) et l'Union africaine qui n'a pas vraiment trouvé sa place là, à part avec cette médiation angolaise. Et je pense que, troisièmement, avec le rôle des acteurs extérieurs dans les crises, comme au Soudan par exemple, c'est très difficile pour l'Union africaine de peser dans un conflit où il y a des acteurs très puissants. Donc, ça échappe un peu à l'Union africaine. Et comme je le dis, il y a des conflits comme celui au Soudan du Sud où l'Union africaine peut éventuellement faire quelque chose. La Somalie, c'est pareil, il y a une force africaine, donc il y a des endroits et des opportunités pour l'Union africaine de montrer son efficacité. Même si dans des grandes crises très importantes comme celle du Soudan, pour le moment, l'Union africaine n'arrive pas à y avoir vraiment un rôle.

"The Netherlands regularly punched above its weight," says an expert report for the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. "The Netherlands reacted in a very agile way to Brexit. We were like-minded with the UK on certain files. And we had to find new partners in the EU." says one of the authors of the study and EU influence expert Mendeltje van Keulen. According to her, Czechia could be even stronger in Brussels if it formed more coalitions of countries with similar positions.

In this sermon by Pastor Chris Romig, the focus is on Revelation 7 and the identity of the 144,000 mentioned in that chapter. Romig begins with recapping the dramatic events of Revelation 6 describing God's judgment and the intense suffering during the end times before moving to the hopeful pause in chapter 7, where 144,000 servants are “sealed” by God. Chris explains that this seal is a spiritual sign of ownership, protection, and purpose, echoing patterns from the Old Testament where God preserves His faithful people during judgment. Addressing various interpretations, Romig rejects the idea promoted by Jehovah's Witnesses that only 144,000 will be saved, as well as the symbolic view that the number represents all believers. Instead, based on the text, he identifies them as Jewish believers from each of the twelve tribes of Israel, chosen and protected by God during the Great Tribulation. The sermon highlights that God's covenant with Israel remains unbroken, as echoed in Romans 11, and that the 144,000 reflect God's specific promises to the Jewish people. For the broader church, Romig encourages Christians to rejoice in the assurance that, like the 144,000, all believers are sealed by God through the Holy Spirit, marked as His own and empowered for faithful living and witness. The message concludes with a prayer for believers to display this seal in their lives, resting in God's hope and assurance.

BREAK: Ingles Markets 6 STORY 1: Cobb commission approves property tax rate, budget Cobb County commissioners approved a $1.3 billion budget for the upcoming fiscal year along partisan lines, keeping the general fund millage rate flat at 8.46 mills. The budget includes a 3.8% increase over last year, staff raises of 2-5%, and four new positions funded by fire and water funds. While the fire fund millage rate was slightly reduced, rising property values will generate $13 million more in tax revenue. Public commenters raised concerns about transparency, spending, and the impact on renters. Chairwoman Lisa Cupid defended the budget, emphasizing sustainability and efficient use of resources. STORY 2: Riverside Parkway residents sound alarm over 'unsafe' living conditions Residents along Riverside Parkway in Mableton are demanding action to address unsafe and neglected conditions in apartment complexes like Five 7 Five, Residence at Riverside Row, and Silver Creek Crossings. Issues include pest infestations, overgrown grass, leaks, and broken windows, with many residents feeling ignored. The properties, now under receivership, are managed by Foresight Asset Management, but residents report little improvement. Mableton Mayor Michael Owens and local leaders are pushing for stricter ordinances and collaboration to ensure safe, affordable housing without displacing residents. Advocates stress the need for long-term solutions for essential workers living in the area. STORY 3: West Cobb VA Clinic closed due to flooding The West Cobb VA Clinic in Marietta is temporarily closed due to flooding reported on July 15. Repairs are underway, but the reopening date is unknown. The Atlanta VA Health Care System is converting appointments to virtual or rescheduling to minimize disruptions, with outreach efforts ongoing.

Owners must meet requirements like liability insurance, notifying neighbors, and designating a 24-hour contact. Violations can result in fines or license revocation. The ordinance aims to address noise, parking complaints, and neighborhood integrity while testing the program’s effectiveness during an initial trial period. Feedback will be reviewed in March 2026.

This is the last episode of our telling of King Philip's War. We cover the fate of the last Algonquian sachems, including the daring capture of Annawon, and the consequences of the war for the Indians who fought it and the colonies of New England.

Finally, we explore the fates of the main characters who were still alive at the end of the fighting.

2005 – Twenty Years OnNext Monday one of the most historic and transformative events in the Irish Peace Process took place. Twenty years ago on the 28 July 2005 the IRA issued a statement which ended its decades long armed struggle. In its statement the IRA said: "The leadership of Óglaigh na hÉireann has formally ordered an end to the armed campaign. This will take effect from 4pm this afternoon. All IRA units have been ordered to dump arms. All Volunteers have been instructed to assist the development of purely political and democratic programmes through exclusively peaceful means. Volunteers must not engage in any other activities whatsoever.”The IRA leadership also said that it had authorised its representative to engage with the IICD (Independent International Commission on Decommissioning) to “complete the process to verifiably put its arms beyond use in a way which will further enhance public confidence.” This was confirmed two months later on the 26 September by the Commission.The IRA initiative opened up opportunities for progress.Peace processes are by their very nature challenging and difficult. They frequently fail. Many of the wars of the 1960s and 70's were a response to the colonial occupation and exploitation of native peoples by colonial powers. Africa saw many examples of these. Some conflicts went on into the 1980s and 90s. Algeria, Kenya, Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia), Angola, Mozambique, and others, including in Asia the Vietnam War and in the Middle East the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories. The South African peace process brought an end to apartheid and witnessed the election of Nelson Mandela as President of that country in 1994. In our own place our peace process brought an end to decades of conflict and heralded processes of change.Today, in a world still bedevilled by wars, the Irish Peace Process is frequently held up internationally as an example of a peace process that is working. The governments occasionally try to root it in the Anglo-Irish Agreement of 1985. But the truth is that it started in the 1970s when Republicans began to claim back the word ‘Peace.'A Welcome Electoral ChangeThe decision, announced last week by the British government, that it will be lowering the voting age to those aged 16 and 17, is a welcome move. There is already widespread support for a reduction in the voting age. Last September the Assembly backed a Sinn Féin motion calling for this change. In the South the policy has received widespread cross-party support from Sinn Féin, Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil, The Green Party, The Labour Party, Social Democrats, People Before Profit, and many Independents.The London government is focussed on the 2029 Westminster election but the North will have local government and Assembly elections in 2027. The focus now must be on ensuring that the necessary legislative steps are taken to ensure that 16 and 17 year olds can vote in those elections.Updating the electoral register and ensuring that this new tranche of young voters have suitable identification, will be a big job of work but with political will it can be done. It would also send entirely the wrong message to future voters if the 2027 deadline is missed.Legislating for young people to have the right to vote is the right thing to do. All parties in the North, with the exception of the DUP, support changing the voting rules. Young people should have the right to vote on decisions that impact on their lives, including voting for a united Ireland.Gaels le Cheile In Conversation with Peter CanavanMonday 28th July, 7:30pm - Naomh Eoin CLG Corrigan Park
The saga of Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita and the Disciplinary Commission will go on. The Supreme Court dismissed Rokita's attempt to get the complaint thrown out.

A scandal involving Greek use of EU agricultural funds is set to play a role in the EU Parliament's discharge of the Commission budget later this year, the co-chair of the European Parliament's Intergroup on Anti-Corruption has told Euronews. Five high-ranking Greek government officials, including a minister and three deputies, resigned on Friday following allegations of involvement in the case, which stems from the alleged mismanagement of EU subsidies for agriculture between 2019 and 2022 by OPEKEPE, a government agency tasked with handling the funds.
