This is Part 13 of the mini-series that covers the story of Bobby Baker. Today we continue  to tell the story of Don Reynolds, the Maryland insurance broker who who made Bobby Baker a nominal partner in his insurance agency and engaged in other business with Baker. Today, we tell the story of the performance bond related to the D.C. stadium build, with Baker's portion of the commissions  disguised and paid in the form of a loan to avoid questions surrounding his conflict of interest in the commission split. Baker  would receive $4,000 from Reynolds commissions which totaled   around $10,000.   Baker's decision  to have the receipt of his  portion of the commissions take the form of  a loan from Reynolds to Baker, was an attempt at  further obscuring the nature of the payment and also turning it into a  a scheme to avoid income taxes on the receipt. In its ugliest vernacular, it was simply a kickback that Baker received related to the commissions on the performance bond insurance premium. The story gets more complicated as Reynolds agrees to overbill on the insurance bond and collect an additional $35,000 over the original price of the bond, disguising what turned out to be an illegal campaign contribution to the Democratic party.  $25,000 of that amount was allegedly  intended to be delivered to the Kennedy Johnson campaign fund but was never proven to have arrived there. This mini-series is part of a larger series covering Billy Sol Estes, Mac Wallace, Bobby Baker and other members of Johnson's Texas inner circle. All of these men were quite intertwined around Johnson at the time of the assassination. They were involved in circumstances that were closing in on Johnson too and that provided him great motive in the killing of the President. The story is extraordinary. We began the story of Don Reynolds in Episode 11 whereby Reynolds crafts an arrangement whereby Baker became a nominal VP of his insurance agency (with a non-voting stock interest) in exchange for Baker's help in expanding  sales and profits. Commission payments for referrals were also a part of the deal.  Reynolds would become friends with Baker and travel on lavish junkets to New York and Miami, living the high life all while cultivating clients made available through Baker's contacts. His tight relationship would lead him to be a bagman too for Baker.  Once these and other scandals were  revealed during investigation by the Senate Rule and Administration committee's investigation and the work of senator John Williams,  the scandal threatened to take the Vice President down politically. Perhaps, if the tragic events of November 22nd had not occurred, these events might have sent Johnson to jail as other indiscretions were also being investigated. Reynolds testimony regarding the stereo and the television advertising kick backed to Johnson  were taking place in closed session at a senate office building literally at the moment that the shots rang out in Dealey Plaza.  Informed of the president's assassination as the meeting was finishing up, Reynolds shook with the gravity of the situation and the fact that the man he had just accused of engaging in graph...Lyndon Johnson, had just become the most powerful man in the world.  Rumors of Johnson's involvement in the assassination began to swirl almost immediately after the President's  murder and there is a defined school of thought within the JFK assassination research community that staunchly believes in Johnson's involvement. His involvement  in both the assassination and its cover up. Join us in one of the most fascinating story tells of the Kennedy assassination and stick around as we will be returning to the Mexico City series right after we complete this min-series.

In the 1930s, an association of primarily Italian mafiosos and Jewish organized crime gangsters, based in Brooklyn, was formed for the purpose of putting distance between the underworld figures ordering hits, and the people carrying out those executions. This organization would come to be known as, Murder Incorporated. And this is their insanely violent story, loaded with crazy characters and their colorful nicknames. Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook 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 4 juillet 2025.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste, ancien président de la Commission des Affaires étrangères de l'Assemblée nationale.Matthias Fekl, avocat et ancien ministre de l'Intérieur.Antoine Foucher, consultant, spécialiste des questions sociales, auteur de Sortir du travail qui ne paie plus.Marc-Olivier Padis, directeur des études de la fondation Terra Nova.C'EST NICOLAS QUI PAIE » : L'AMORCE D'UN CONFLIT INTERGÉNÉRATIONNELTravail, écologie, sexualité, politique, racisme, laïcité, tant autour des questions sociales que dans le champ des valeurs, tout séparerait les jeunes de leurs aînés. Les « boomers » auraient « cramé la caisse » et la planète. Leurs successeurs seraient paresseux, instables, égoïstes, trop radicaux. L'expression « OK, boomer », apparue en 2018 et largement répandue sur les réseaux sociaux, résume à elle seule ce « clash intergénérationnel ». En cause : la montée de l'individualisme, l'accélération des changements technologiques et l'inversion opérée dans la transmission traditionnelle des savoirs. Avec le Covid, la génération Z - née entre la fin des années 1990 et le début des années 2010 – se serait sentie sacrifiée pour protéger les boomers. La crise écologique a créé des éco-anxieux qui demandent des comptes. C'est sur le front des conditions économiques que les tensions sont les plus vives : dans un État consacrant plus de budget à la retraite (379 milliards d'euros en 2023, 13,4 % du PIB, selon le rapport du Conseil d'orientation des retraites) qu'à sa jeunesse (190 milliards d'euros pour l'éducation en 2023, 6,7 % du PIB), celle-ci est contrainte de composer avec un chômage structurel, des inégalités sociales croissantes et un État de moins en moins providence et protecteur, constate Salomé Saqué, dans son livre Sois jeune et tais-toi.Alors que la CFDT comme le Medef commencent à s'inquiéter d'un risque de conflit intergénérationnel, dans son rapport d'avril, la Cour des comptes a alerté sur la nécessité de veiller à l'équité intergénérationnelle des systèmes de retraites. Compte tenu du vieillissement de la population et de la baisse de la natalité, pour éviter que les écarts ne se creusent, la Cour note l'intérêt de mieux piloter le système global avec des clauses de revoyure. Le rapport entre actifs et retraités ne cesse de se dégrader : de trois actifs pour un retraité au début des années 1980, ce ratio est passé à 2,1 actifs pour un retraité en 2000 et à 1,7 cotisant pour un retraité en 2021. Il devrait encore décliner d'ici à 2050 pour passer à 1,5 cotisant pour un retraité. Dans un tel contexte, le système de retraites par répartition apparaît de moins en moins à même de générer un niveau de pensions suffisant.Depuis quelques mois, Nicolas, trente ans, un personnage fictif devenu un mème populaire sur les réseaux sociaux incarne le « ras-le-bol fiscal » d'une partie de la jeune génération. Notamment sur X et à droite, dès qu'un article de presse relaie une information impliquant une dépense de l'État, le commentaire surgit : « C'est Nicolas qui paie. » Nicolas (prénom le plus donné aux garçons en 1995) se veut emblématique de la génération des jeunes actifs trentenaires, supposés écrasés d'impôts pour financer les croisières de « Bernard et Chantal », retraités de 70 ans, et le RSA de « Karim », jeune immigré de 25 ans, autres personnages fictifs. « Il n'y a pas de caractère inédit concernant les contestations fiscales, souligne l'économiste Erwann Tison. Ce qui est nouveau, c'est le côté générationnel ».Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

“The five-year relative survival rate for localized, or cancer that is confined to the colon or the rectum, is 91% for colon cancer and 90% for rectal cancer. Distant, metastasized to other organs—the five-year survival rate is 13% for colon and 18% for rectal cancer. So that really shows you the huge difference in screening and where screening can come in and make better outcomes,” 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, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about colorectal cancer screening.

Highlights From This Episode “Interestingly, recent studies suggest that starting screening even earlier than 45, such as age 40, could significantly reduce mortality and incidence rates, especially as colorectal cancer is rising among younger adults.” TS 2:42 “[Artificial intelligence]-enhanced screening tools are also being developed to improve sensitivity, reduce turnaround time, and enable real-time monitoring of disease progression. These innovations aim to make screening more accessible and accurate, especially in our underserved populations. So there's a huge impact on early detection.” TS 4:07 “Those with multiple chronic conditions or limited mobility may be less likely to complete screening, and those results may be harder to interpret. I mentioned a little bit earlier about our underserved or minority populations. Those barriers such as limited health literacy, lack of insurance, and cultural stigma can reduce screening uptake and ultimately follow-through.” TS 12:25 “Patient navigation programs—this is where we have trained navigators to help patients schedule appointments, understand procedures, and ultimately overcome some of these logistical hurdles. These have actually been shown to significantly boost screening rates. Also, those mailed stool-based-test kits—sending those kits directly to a patient home, especially with a personalized letter from a provider to add that extra little touch, has proven effective in increasing participation.” TS 21:29 “Our screening can detect cancer before symptoms appear and even identify precancerous polyps, which can be removed to prevent cancer altogether. Studies actually show that regular screening can reduce colorectal cancer mortality by up to 35% and the incidence of advanced-stage disease by nearly 30%. Just another reason why screening really does matter.” TS 25:53 “Evaluating our implicit bias, especially in something as critical as colorectal cancer, requires both introspection and instructional supports. One way of doing this is by auditing your practice patterns, really looking at reviewing your own screening recommendations and follow-up rates across different patient demographics. So are there certain groups that are less likely to be offered a colonoscopy? I think some of us may have an implicit bias—you see a patient; you're like, ‘There's no way they're going to agree to that, so I'm just not going to offer it.' Where we don't offer it, they don't have that opportunity to decline that. That can lead to further delay. And those patterns can reveal a bias in action.” TS 28:18

What if your onboarding process could become your most powerful referral engine? Most advisors overlook onboarding as a strategic growth tool—and that's a mistake. In this episode, Brendan Frazier sits down with Libby Greiwe, founder of The Efficient Advisor, podcast host, and author of The First 100 Days: The Advisor's Blueprint for a Remarkable Client Experience. Libby walks through how to assess your current process, design it around your clients' emotions, and shift their experience from uncertainty to confidence. All while laying the foundation for lifelong loyalty and a steady stream of referrals. You'll Learn:  How you can assess your onboarding process to identify areas for improvement  Designing your onboarding experience to align with your clients' emotions  The three layers that make up a great onboarding process  How a “Domino's pizza tracker” style system can help keep clients informed and engaged  How hosting signing parties for paperwork could reduce friction and improve the client experience  The role of remarkable human connections and clear expectations plays in onboarding success  *To sign up for Brendan's newsletter packed with resources to master the human side of advice → Click Here Resources:  The First 100 Days Course Connect with Brendan Frazier:  RFG Advisory LinkedIn: Brendan Frazier Connect with Libby Greiwe:  The Efficient Advisor LinkedIn: Libby Greiwe About our Guest:  Libby Greiwe helps financial advisors build efficient, systematized businesses—so they can work less, feel less overwhelmed, and fall back in love with their practice. When she began her career in financial services, Libby was logging 80-hour weeks at a large brokerage firm. It didn't take long for her to recognize that most advisors weren't struggling due to a lack of knowledge—they were struggling because they lacked efficient systems. That realization set her on a mission to change the way advisors work. Through The Efficient Advisor, Libby now teaches advisors how to organize their practice, streamline operations, and deliver an exceptional client experience—while reclaiming their time and energy. – Content here is for illustrative purposes and general information only.

C dans l'air du 2 juillet 2025 - Trump lâche l'Ukraine, Poutine avance ses pions - Alors que Donald Trump reste, depuis des semaines, ambivalent sur l'avenir de l'aide militaire à l'Ukraine, la Maison-Blanche a annoncé mardi avoir suspendu la livraison de certaines armes à Kiev. Une décision motivée, selon plusieurs médias américains, par les inquiétudes du Pentagone concernant le niveau des stocks de munitions de l'armée américaine.Parmi les équipements concernés figurent les systèmes de défense aérienne Patriot, l'artillerie de précision et les missiles Hellfire. Cette décision intervient alors que la Russie intensifie ses frappes. Rien que le week-end dernier, plus de 530 drones et missiles se sont abattus sur le territoire ukrainien. La défense antiaérienne en a intercepté la moitié. Les autres ont visé plusieurs villes, dont Kiev.L'Ukraine a déclaré mercredi ne pas avoir reçu de notification officielle de la part des États-Unis. "Nous sommes en train de clarifier la situation", a précisé Dmytro Lytvyne, conseiller de Volodymyr Zelensky. Il a assuré que les discussions avec Washington se poursuivent "à tous les niveaux".Le Kremlin, lui, a salué cette annonce. "Moins il y a d'armes livrées à l'Ukraine, plus proche est la fin de l'opération militaire spéciale", a déclaré Dmitri Peskov, porte-parole de Vladimir Poutine.Sur un autre front, Donald Trump a affirmé mardi sur son réseau social que l'État d'Israël a accepté un cessez-le-feu de 60 jours dans la bande de Gaza. Il espère "travailler avec toutes les parties pour mettre fin à la guerre" et met la pression sur le Hamas pour qu'il accepte cet accord, déclarant : "La situation ne s'améliorera pas — ELLE NE FERA QU'EMPIRER". Cette déclaration intervient alors que le ministre israélien des Affaires stratégiques, Ron Dermer, était en visite à Washington, en amont de la venue du Premier ministre Benyamin Netanyahou prévue lundi. Trump a aussi mentionné une rencontre bilatérale imminente avec l'Iran, sans en dévoiler les détails. Pendant ce temps, les interrogations persistent sur l'impact réel des récentes frappes américaines contre les installations nucléaires iraniennes.Selon le Washington Post, des échanges interceptés entre responsables iraniens laisseraient entendre que les dommages sont limités. De son côté, Donald Trump affirme que le programme nucléaire iranien a été "complètement anéanti". Les responsables américains se veulent plus prudents : l'évaluation complète des dégâts prendra du temps. D'autant plus que Téhéran a suspendu toute coopération avec l'Agence internationale de l'énergie atomique (AIEA), qui n'a désormais plus accès aux sites nucléaires du pays. Selon l'agence onusienne, l'Iran pourrait relancer son programme d'enrichissement d'uranium d'ici à "quelques mois".En parallèle, Donald Trump s'est livré à une nouvelle attaque verbale contre Elon Musk, n'excluant pas d'expulser du pays le patron de Tesla, naturalisé américain en 2002, et le renvoyer vers son pays d'origine : l'Afrique du Sud. Il a aussi évoqué la possibilité que la Commission pour l'efficacité gouvernementale (DOGE) – créée par et pour Elon Musk afin de réduire les dépenses fédérales – puisse se retourner contre son ex-directeur et remettre en question les fonds publics investis dans ses entreprises, notamment dans le domaine spatial.LES EXPERTS :- Anthony BELLANGER - éditorialiste à France Info TV, spécialiste des questions internationales- Nicole BACHARAN - historienne, spécialiste des Etats-Unis et également éditorialiste chez Ouest France- Isabelle LASSERRE - correspondante diplomatique pour Le Figaro- Général Jean-Paul PALOMÉROS - ancien chef d'état-major et ancien commandant suprême de la transformation de l'OTAN

This is Part 12 of the mini-series that covers the story of Bobby Baker. This mini-series is part of a larger series covering Billy Sol Estes, Mac Wallace, Bobby Baker and other members of Johnson's Texas inner circle. All of these men were quite intertwined around Johnson at the time of the assassination. They were involved in circumstances that were closing in on Johnson too and that provided him great motive in the killing of the President. The story is extraordinary. We began the story of Don Reynolds in Episode 11. Today we continue  to tell the story of Don Reynolds, the Maryland insurance broker who who went into business with Baker, crafting an arrangement whereby Baker became a nominal VP of his insurance agency (with a non-voting stock interest) in exchange for Baker's help in expanding  sales and profits. Commission payments for referrals were also a part of the deal.  Reynolds would become friends with Baker and travel on lavish junkets to New York and Miami, living the high life all while cultivating clients made available through Baker's contacts. His tight relationship would lead him to be a bagman too for Baker.  The end came when the Senate Rules and Administration committee began its investigation and came upon Reynolds, who had sold $200,000 worth of life insurance to Lyndon Johnson as a result of the introduction provided by Baker. But Johnson's insistence on kickbacks on the cost of the insurance premium would prove to be perilous. The kickbacks would come  in the form of a stereo thinly disguised as a gift along with the purchase of television advertising on Johnson's Austin TV station. Once revealed by the committee's investigation and the work of senator John Williams,  the scandal threatened to take the Vice President down politically and perhaps, if the tragic events of November 22nd had not occurred, might have sent Johnson to jail as other indiscretions were also being investigated. Reynolds testimony regarding the stereo and the television advertising were taking place in closed session at a senate office building literally at the moment that the shots rang out in Dealey Plaza.  Informed of the president's assassination as the meeting was finishing up, Reynolds shook with the gravity of the situation and the fact that the man he had just accused of engaging in graph...Lyndon Johnson, had just become the most powerful man in the world.  The characters, setting and details around this story make it an essential example of one more bad choice of association by Baker which eventually led to his demise and, as mentioned, came close to bringing down Vice President Johnson as well. Rumors of Johnson's involvement in the assassination began to swirl almost immediately after the President's  murder and there is a defined school of thought within the JFK assassination research community that staunchly believes in Johnson's involvement. His involvement  in both the assassination and its cover up. Join us in one of the most fascinating story tells of the Kennedy assassination and stick around as we will be returning to the Mexico City series right after we complete this min-series that was spawned by the recent release of the Billy Sol Estes and Cliff Carter tape that the two recorded in 1971. Folks, you just can't write this stuff. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History.

Maps of New England during King Philip's War March 1676 had been catastrophic for the settlers of New England. Algonquians allied with Metacom (King Philip) attacked all across the frontier, forcing the evacuation of far-flung towns in both Massachusetts and Plymouth, and destroying Providence, Rhode Island. The tide, however, was about to turn. The New English captured Canonchet, the leading military commander of the Narragansetts on April 3, 1676. Less than three weeks later, the Algonquians would win a decisive tactical victory at Sudbury, Massachusetts, but shortly thereafter their alliance would begin to fracture because of a shortage of food, a vicious epidemic, the dawning realization that the English had many more fighting men, and - perhaps most importantly - attacks by the Mohawks from the west. The coastal Algonquians, who had lived mostly at peace with the English for more than 50 years, were now between the ultimate rock and hard place. Along the way, both sides, but especially the English, would miss many opportunities for peace, and the war would continue in spite of catastrophic losses by both sides.

In this case, the court considered these issues:1. Can a nonparty challenge a federal agency's “final order” under the Hobbs Act's judicial review provision? 2. Do federal nuclear laws allow the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to license private companies to store spent nuclear fuel at off-reactor sites?The case was decided on June 18, 2025.The Supreme Court held that a facility to store spent nuclear fuel at a private off-site location requires a license from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and only parties to the Commission's licensing proceeding may obtain judicial review of the licensing decision under the Hobbs Act. Justice Brett Kavanaugh authored the 6-3 majority opinion of the Court.The Hobbs Act provides that any “party aggrieved” by a Commission licensing order may seek judicial review in federal court. The Atomic Energy Act establishes how one becomes a party to a Commission licensing proceeding: a person must either be the license applicant or successfully intervene by requesting a hearing and being admitted as a party by the Commission. Simply submitting comments on a draft environmental impact statement does not confer party status, just as filing an amicus brief in court does not make one a party to the case. When the Commission denies a petition to intervene, that decision itself is subject to judicial review, but the denied petitioner cannot later challenge the underlying licensing decision.The narrow exception for ultra vires review—where an agency acts entirely outside its delegated powers—does not apply here. This exception requires agency action that violates a specific statutory prohibition, not merely a disagreement about statutory interpretation. Additionally, ultra vires review is unavailable when adequate statutory review exists, as it does here through the ability to appeal intervention denials and, for successful intervenors, to challenge final licensing orders.Justice Neil Gorsuch authored a dissenting opinion, joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, arguing that the Nuclear Waste Policy Act explicitly prohibits storage of spent nuclear fuel anywhere except at reactor sites or federally owned facilities, and that Texas and Fasken qualified as parties under the Hobbs Act because they participated in the environmental review portion of the NRC's licensing proceeding.The opinion is presented here in its entirety, but with citations omitted.

“Just remember that these patients, these are human beings who had lung cancer. It's a scary disease. And we don't want to just say, ‘Oh, well, that's a horrible disease. They probably won't do well.' These patients are living longer. Our treatments are better. And so no matter who they are, they have every chance of surviving long term for this,” ONS member Beth Sandy, MSN, CRNP, thoracic medical oncology nurse practitioner at the Abramson Cancer Center at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about lung cancer survivorship.

Highlights From This Episode “For patients with stage I disease, they have a pretty good chance of getting to that five-year mark, somewhere probably in the 70%–80% range, depending on if you're stage IA or IB. Then it starts to drop obviously if you go up stages with patients.” TS 6:36 “Our radiation oncologists … and the dosimetrists in radiation oncology do a great job trying to line those beams up to minimize toxicity to those other vital organs. But we just can't always do that. You may see long-term fibrotic changes within the lungs. You could see cardiac damage over time. You can see esophagitis or [gastrointestinal] toxicity, particularly in the esophagus over time, post-radiation. And just the fact of having disease or cancer in the lungs, you can have breathing problems and pulmonary issues long term.” TS 10:37 “Part of survivorship in lung cancer is smoking and smoking cessation. I know it can be hard for people to quit, even people who had curative-intent treatment for their lung cancer—and so keeping up with smoking cessation. And that can be hard again if you don't have access to a smoking cessation specialty or if you live with other people who smoke and don't have really access to programs to help you quit and help you stay quitting.” TS 17:26 “I should talk about autoimmune diseases as part of immunotherapy. We give immunotherapy now in the curative setting preoperatively, postoperatively, post-chemoradiation, so they may get a year or so of immunotherapy. They may develop some sort of autoimmune toxicity from that. Usually that will go away once we stop the immunotherapy. But I've seen some things persist over time. That can go anywhere from like mild eczema that came about to things like more serious, like maybe lupus or scleroderma that may have developed as part of your immunotherapy. And we may stop the immunotherapy, but that may linger on.” TS 25:02  

L'euro numérique est un projet de monnaie numérique de banque centrale (CBDC) porté par la Banque centrale européenne. Il permettrait aux citoyens de la zone euro de disposer d'un moyen de paiement numérique, gratuit, sécurisé, instantané, et utilisable même hors ligne, tout en étant garanti par la BCE, comme les billets et pièces actuels.Ce projet vise à compléter les moyens de paiement privés, à préserver la souveraineté monétaire européenne face à la montée des cryptomonnaies et des stablecoins (notamment américains), et à offrir une forme publique de monnaie adaptée à l'ère numérique. Après une phase d'étude entre 2021 et 2023, la BCE est désormais dans une phase de préparation technique et réglementaire. La décision de lancer ou non l'euro numérique sera prise en octobre 2025, pour une mise en circulation possible à partir de 2027.Mais une étude publiée en juin 2025 par le cabinet PwC vient jeter une ombre sur ce calendrier. Commandée par trois grandes fédérations bancaires européennes, l'étude révèle que les coûts d'adaptation pour les banques seraient très élevés : environ 2 milliards d'euros pour un échantillon de 19 banques, et jusqu'à 30 milliards pour l'ensemble de la zone euro si certaines fonctionnalités ambitieuses sont mises en œuvre (paiement hors ligne, comptes multiples, interopérabilité avec les acteurs privés). La grande majorité des coûts (75 %) concernerait des adaptations techniques (nouvelles applis, interfaces, infrastructures).Plus inquiétant encore, près de 46 % des experts bancaires spécialisés seraient mobilisés chaque année sur ce projet, au détriment de la capacité d'innovation des établissements. Ce coût humain et organisationnel s'ajoute aux autres points de friction déjà identifiés : crainte d'une désintermédiation bancaire (si les citoyens transfèrent trop d'argent vers leur portefeuille numérique BCE), débats sur la protection de la vie privée, et incertitudes réglementaires au sein de l'Union européenne.Malgré ces obstacles, la BCE et la Commission européenne restent déterminées, notamment face aux ambitions américaines en matière de stablecoins. Elles voient dans l'euro numérique un outil stratégique pour préserver l'indépendance monétaire de la zone euro.Conclusion :Le lancement de l'euro numérique reste probable, mais pas encore assuré. Tout dépendra de l'équilibre politique trouvé d'ici octobre 2025 entre les ambitions institutionnelles européennes et les contraintes techniques et économiques des banques. À court terme, le projet reste fragile. À moyen terme, cependant, la digitalisation mondiale des paiements rend son adoption de plus en plus inévitable. Hébergé par Acast.

Les réactions sont vives dans le pays après l'enlèvement et les sévices subis par l'avocat Mohamed Traoré. Dans la nuit de vendredi à samedi dernier, relate Jeune Afrique, « un groupe de personnes encagoulées (cinq selon la famille, au moins sept selon le barreau de Guinée) font irruption chez les Traoré, à Sonfonia, un quartier de la banlieue Est de Conakry. Giflé, ainsi que sa fille aînée qui voulait s'interposer, l'avocat est embarqué de force et conduit vers une destination inconnue (…). Au cours de sa séquestration, il est allongé au sol puis cruellement fouetté. Le chef présumé de l'opération donne l'ordre explicite de ne pas interrompre la flagellation avant d'atteindre 500 coups. Le dos de Me Traoré est couvert de plaies, signes manifestes des sévices subis. »  L'ancien bâtonnier sera ensuite retrouvé, inconscient, à 70 km de la capitale, avant de recevoir des soins dans un lieu tenu secret. Trop critique Pourquoi cet enlèvement, pourquoi ces tortures ? Mohammed Traoré avait critiqué à maintes reprises le pouvoir militaire en place. Il avait, précise Jeune Afrique, « claqué la porte du Parlement de transition, après l'expiration du délai de deux ans donné, sous l'égide de la CEDEAO, à la junte pour le retour des civils au pouvoir. Et il avait récemment critiqué publiquement la création d'une Direction générale des élections, qui va se substituer à la Commission électorale nationale indépendante dans l'organisation des prochains scrutins. » Jeune Afrique rapporte les premiers mots de l'avocat après qu'il a été retrouvé : « je vais faire une pause, dit-il, par respect pour ma famille et mes amis (…). Ceux qui veulent me faire taire diront sûrement : “Voilà, il a compris l'avertissement.” Mais je les laisse dans leurs illusions. » Condamnations en série Depuis ces derniers jours, les réactions indignées se succèdent. Dans un communiqué repris notamment par l'hebdomadaire Le Lynx, l'ordre des avocats de Guinée condamne cet enlèvement et ces tortures : « cet acte jette une ombre sur la crédibilité de l'Etat de droit en Guinée. Le Barreau exige que toute la lumière soit faite sur les auteurs, exécutants, complices et commanditaires de cette opération ignoble. » La Conférence des Barreaux de l'UEMOA condamne également fermement l'enlèvement de Me Traoré. « Quand les avocats sont attaqués, c'est la justice qui est en danger », affirme l'organisation dans un communiqué repris par le site Guinée 360. Vive réaction également de l'opposant en exil Cellou Dalein Diallo, à lire sur le site Guinée Live : « jusqu'à quand allons-nous rester silencieux pendant que cette junte écrase les libertés, viole les lois et continue de faire taire, par tous les moyens y compris par l'élimination physique et la disparition forcée toute voix dissonante ? » « Toutes les voix dissonantes sont en train d'être supprimées par la junte », renchérit Aboubacar Biro Soumah, président du Parti pour le progrès et le changement, dans un entretien à Guinée Matin. Allusion aux personnalités enlevées ces derniers mois et dont on est toujours sans nouvelles : les responsables du Front national pour la défense de la Constitution, Foniké Menguè et Mamadou Billo Bah, le journaliste Habib Marouane Camara, ou encore l'ancien secrétaire général du ministère des Mines, Saadou Nimaga. La stratégie de la répression ? Interrogé par Ledjely, Alseny Sall, de l'Organisation guinéenne de défense des droits de l'homme, exprime sa préoccupation face à cette recrudescence d'enlèvements ciblés. : « ce qui est encore plus alarmant, affirme-t-il, c'est que le dénominateur commun à la quasi-totalité des victimes est leur engagement pour la démocratie et leur prise de position contre les dérives de la transition en cours. Cela laisse penser qu'il ne s'agit pas d'actes isolés, mais d'une stratégie bien orchestrée visant à faire taire les voix dissidentes, ce qui est contraire aux principes d'un État de droit. » Il y a une semaine, lors d'une visite officielle en Côte d'Ivoire, le chef de la junte guinéenne, le général Mamadi Doumbouya affirmait : « ma profonde conviction est que la stabilité politique est la pierre angulaire de tout développement durable. » Des élections législatives et présidentielles sont prévues à la fin de l'année en Guinée. Auparavant en septembre, un référendum constitutionnel doit avoir lieu. Il y a quelques jours, le pouvoir a fait voter un projet de Constitution qui pourrait entraîner la suppression de la limitation des mandats présidentiels. D'où cette question posée par Jeune Afrique : « Mamadi Doumbouya s'ouvre-t-il la voie à une présidence à vie ? »

Send us a textSome conversations don't just stick with you—they shape you.In this episode, Kevin sits down with Echo VanderWal, co-founder of The Luke Commission in Eswatini, for a conversation that's been years in the making. What unfolds is more than a story about global healthcare—it's a testament to what can happen when compassion meets calling.Echo shares the remarkable journey of building one of the most impactful medical missions in southern Africa, from tackling the HIV crisis with dignity and innovation to launching an oxygen plant during the height of COVID. But more than the logistics or the stats, this episode is about heart—the kind it takes to build trust in underserved communities, and the kind that reminded Kevin to think differently about medicine.If you've ever wondered what true, patient-first care looks like—even when resources are scarce and the odds are long—this is the episode for you.takeawaysEcho VanderWal's journey is driven by a calling to serve in healthcare.Building trust and compassion is essential in healthcare delivery.The HIV crisis in Eswatini has led to significant challenges.Innovative approaches are necessary to address stigma and improve care.COVID-19 presented unique challenges but also opportunities for growth.The establishment of an oxygen plant was a pivotal moment for the Luke Commission.Community engagement and grassroots support are vital for sustainability.The team at the Luke Commission is resilient and dedicated to their mission.Funding models need to diversify to ensure long-term viability.The Luke Commission aims to expand its impact beyond Eswatini.

Donald Trump's new Commission on Religious Liberty met last week for the first time.When Trump signed the executive order in May establishing the group, he marked the occasion by saying, "We're bringing religion back to our country, and it's a big deal."But isn't the separation of church and state guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution?

You know the drill. The quota clock is ticking, the pressure is mounting, and there's that relentless urge for a quick win. Every sales professional has felt that impulse to rush the process, to push for the immediate "yes," because, well, the numbers demand it. But here's the tough question you need to ask yourself: What if that very pressure is actively sabotaging your long-term success? What if chasing the fast buck is actually costing you the lucrative, lasting relationships that define an elite sales career and build a lasting book of business? As Sales Gravy Podcast guest Steve Pyfrom puts it: “Building relationships takes time and sales, teams need desperately to get off of this short-term win dynamic. The goal is long-term revenue for your company, lifetime value for the end user.”  Focusing solely on the quick sale burns through pipeline leads faster than you can replace them, leaving you on a perpetual hamster wheel of prospecting just to stay afloat. It's time to talk about the long game, because building real relationships is where sustainable revenue lives. Why Churn Is Killing Your Commissions Let's talk numbers. According to SimplicityDX, customer acquisition costs have increased by 222% over the last eight years, while customer lifetime value has remained flat. It's getting harder and more expensive to find new customers, making the ones you have incredibly valuable. Yet most salespeople treat customers like one-time transactions. They close the deal, celebrate briefly, then immediately move on to the next prospect. This approach is financial suicide. Customers who feel rushed through the buying process rarely become loyal advocates. When a customer feels pressured into a decision or perceives the sale as purely transactional, their loyalty is paper-thin. They're constantly looking for better deals, questioning their purchase decision, and jumping ship when problems arise. When a customer churns, you lose all potential referrals, upsells, and cross-sells they could have generated. You're back to square one, hunting for new prospects to replace the revenue you just lost, all while acquisition costs keep climbing. The Trust Equation That Changes Everything Most salespeople think selling is about convincing, but selling is about connecting. When you rush a prospect, you're telling them their decision-making process doesn't matter. You're saying your timeline is more important than their comfort level.  Real relationships are built on trust, and trust takes time. Think about your personal life. Your closest friends aren't the people who tried to fast-track the process. They're the ones who showed up consistently, listened without an agenda, and proved their reliability over time. The same principle applies in sales. The prospects who become your biggest advocates aren't the ones you pressured into a quick yes. They're the ones who felt heard, understood, and genuinely cared for throughout the entire process. The Compound Effect of Relationship Selling Consider Mary, a software sales rep who was in competition with 2 other software vendors for a deal with a manufacturing company. Mary's competitors immediately launched into aggressive pitches and discount offers to David, the CFO, hoping to close the deal quickly. Mary took a different approach. Instead of pitching, she spent two months understanding David's cash flow challenges and upcoming board presentation needs. She shared relevant case studies, introduced him to a supply chain consultant, and helped him think through his decision criteria. She never once mentioned her software. When David's team raised concerns about implementation timelines during their evaluation, Mary's competitors pushed back, insisting their solution was simple to deploy. Mary listened, then connected David with a similar CFO who had successfully managed a comparable rollout. That conversation addressed David's real concerns and kept Mary's soluti...

What if the hardest part of investing isn't building a portfolio—but sticking to it? In this AMA edition of the Rational Reminder podcast, Ben Felix and Dan Bortolotti tackle listener questions ranging from sustainable retirement withdrawals to the dangers of structured products, with plenty of philosophical insights on risk, behavior, and financial planning. The episode opens with a deep dive into the 4% rule, exploring how time horizon, asset allocation, and global data can shift the definition of “safe.” They also explore the behavioral challenges of the “boring middle” of investing and why consistency may be the greatest alpha. Other standout segments include a sharp critique of bank-sold structured notes, an evidence-based takedown of trend following, and a fascinating discussion on the long-term impact of demographic shifts and index investing. Throughout, Ben and Dan blend technical insight with practical wisdom and academic research, delivering a thoughtful and entertaining conversation for both DIY investors and those working with advisors.   Key Points From This Episode: (0:01:07) What the latest data says about safe withdrawal rates, especially for early retirees with 100% equity exposure.
