Captain James Fanell (US Navy, retired), co-host Gordon Chang: Fanell warns that China is nearing completion of a military installation on Triton Island in the Paracels, expanding its "ring of control" in the South China Sea. He cautions that China may soon fortify Scarborough Shoal, threatening to block the northern South China Sea and degrade U.S. naval operations. In response to this rising coercion, the Philippines is boosting its 2027 defense budget by 6.3%, allocating $800 million for modernization with a heavy focus on intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance drones. Fanell urges more assertive naval cooperation to deter further Chinese expansion. (5)

DFW Airport is moving forward with Islamic foot-washing stations inside Terminal D bathrooms, and the details are out. The privately funded project registers at around $300,000 and puts dedicated Wudu ablution stations in both the men's and women's concourse restrooms. Officials say it's about keeping floors dry and sinks intact after travelers wash their feet in regular fixtures. Completion is targeted for the end of the year. Terminal D handles the bulk of international traffic. Similar stations already exist at places like Chicago O'Hare and Houston Bush, and DFW has had limited ablution facilities near its interfaith chapel for years. This expands the practice into the main restrooms. The filing calls it basic infrastructure for safety and sanitation. Plenty of Americans are asking a different question: why special plumbing for one ritual while every other traveler just uses the sinks? This isn't about private funding or wet floors alone. It's about what airports decide is worth accommodating in the middle of Texas. Watch the full conversation for the filing details, the practical defense, the cultural signal, and the commonsense pushback.

As Mark's Gospel concludes with the resurrection of Jesus Christ, we see how God accomplishes His redemptive plan through unlikely witnesses and unexpected outcomes. Here, believers are called to move beyond incomplete faith and fear toward a confident hope in the bodily resurrection. For Christ has defeated death, which secures our new life and glory through our union with Him.

This is a technology that was developed in America 140 years ago, refined by a small group of teachers most people have never heard of, practiced professionally by licensed men and women who charged money for it, and then almost completely forgotten. It is called treatment, and every affirmation circulating on the internet descends from it. Every abundance meditation borrows its grammar. The entire modern manifestation world stands on a foundation this word describes, and almost nobody teaches the original discipline anymore. ⠀ Here is why the difference matters. An affirmation has no ending. You repeat it and repeat it and there arrives no moment where the work concludes. A treatment finishes. Completion is built into the architecture, and that single structural feature solves the problem I spent years failing to solve on my own. In this deep dive I walk you through everything. The origin. Ernest Holmes and Raymond Charles Barker. The five movements — recognition, unification, realization, thanksgiving, release. The four instruments people confuse with each other. The five errors that stop treatments from taking hold. And the four rules for writing your own. Then in the second half of the episode I read ten new treatments aloud that I wrote for you. Money, receiving, the body, right work, love, guidance, protection, hard seasons, the self you are becoming, and someone you love. Speak them with me and hold onto them for the rest of your life.  

The transition from summer break to school in the fall can be challenging for any child. It can be even more difficult for children who have a hard time with change given trauma and attachment issues and their placement in foster care or being adopted. In this episode, we are joined by Emily Johnson, who has years of experience supporting kids in going back to school. Emily is a foster caregiver, adoptive parent, and birth parent. Emily helps us understand what children are going through and offers practical guidance on ways to support them through the transition from their summer routines to the often more structured, demanding and earlier mornings of going back to school. 30 min This episode is eligible for a Certificate of Completion.

Send us Fan MailCustomer experience is changing. The focus is moving beyond simply having conversations with customers towards actually completing the task or resolving the issue.In this episode of Cavell Cloud Conversations, Finbarr is joined by Chris Morrissey from Zoom to explore how AI is transforming contact centers, from virtual agents and workflow automation to agentic AI, orchestration and decision intelligence.The conversation looks at why businesses need to move beyond AI hype and focus on measurable outcomes. Chris explains how AI can complete workflows during customer interactions, connect systems behind the scenes and help organisations deliver faster, more effective resolutions.The discussion also explores how businesses should approach AI adoption. Rather than trying to transform everything at once, starting with focused use cases can help organisations demonstrate value, build internal confidence and create a foundation for wider adoption.Key TakeawaysAI can do more than have a conversation. The next stage of customer experience is about AI actually completing tasks and resolving customer needs during the interaction.Start small, prove the value and build from there. Successful AI adoption does not necessarily require a massive transformation programme. Focused use cases can demonstrate results and create confidence for further investment.Integration is becoming critical. AI can only deliver on its promise when it can access the systems, data and workflows needed to complete a customer's request.The technology stack is converging. The traditional boundaries between contact center, communications, automation and AI platforms are becoming increasingly blurred.The goal should be better outcomes, not simply lower costs. AI can create efficiencies, but the opportunity is to reinvest those savings into better customer experiences and continued innovation.

It has been a long and sometimes frustrating process for motorists and businesses in Grove Hill as Jackson Street (Highway 295) has been repaved. The route runs through the middle of town and can be busy at times. Crews were busy Monday finishing up the work, including at intersections such as Main Street. Gary Horton of B&H Parts located on Jackson Street said workers were thoughtful and considerate of affected businesses with some of the work being done in the evenings and on weekends.

In this episode of UC Today, host Kristian McCann sits down with Nick Gonios, VP of Learning Transformation and Company Ambassador at TalentLMS, to explore one of the biggest hidden challenges in corporate learning: the Completion Trap. As AI rapidly transforms the workplace and organizations race to reskill their workforces, traditional learning metrics are increasingly falling short. Completion percentages and attendance figures may look impressive on a dashboard, but they reveal very little about whether employees can apply what they've learned to improve business outcomes. In this conversation, Nick explains why organizations have become fixated on measuring learning activity instead of learning impact, how outdated KPIs continue to reinforce the problem, and why this disconnect is creating friction, reducing productivity, and slowing organizational transformation.Key topics covered include:Why course completion is a poor indicator of real learning and competence.What TalentLMS' latest research reveals about learning metrics, employee behavior, and business impact.How AI can move beyond content creation to deliver personalized, relevant learning experiences.Practical steps organizations can take to align learning initiatives with productivity and business outcomes.Next StepsIf you enjoyed this discussion, don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe to UC Today for more conversations with industry leaders shaping the future of work, AI, learning, and enterprise technology.

https://enlighteninglife.com/august-2026-energy-report/It's August, the 8th month which means that the year is winding down. By the time August ends it feels like the holidays are just around the corner, then the year is over. I feel like this year has been in a holding pattern. Things are happening, but many things are starting and nothing is completing. I think August will be the turning point for that. August is the 8th month and in a 2026, which is a 1 year, it's a 9, the number of endings. But these are not normal or usual endings, this is closure if we are ready for that. If you are part of the GPS 2026 group, I explained this in the August call. You can join that program at this link. August energy theme is completion, and that is more than endings that must occur for beginnings. Completion is being finished, complete, with no loose ends, no regret, no second chances or second guessing our actions or intentions. If you are given an opportunity for completion this month, take it all the way to the end. Completion must happen before true beginnings can occur. August 2026 has 2 eclipses which is not rare for August but it brings back the August 21, 2017 eclipse which was called the Great US eclipse. It was at 28 Leo and that correlates to the current degree of the North Node, which just moved into Aquarius. I think there is a synergy there so we will have to wait to see how that plays out. The Universe has interesting ways of creating solutions to the dark agendas that are currently wreaking havoc on the planet. Read the rest of the article on the Enlightening Life blog at this link.

Allen covers Dominion’s $800M tariff hit, Eversource’s 84% profit drop, Nordex’s record quarter, and a looming floating wind vessel shortage.

And subscribe to Rosemary’s “Engineering with Rosie” YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! Good Monday, everyone. Let us start this week with a number. Eight hundred million dollars. That is what tariffs on steel and aluminum added to Dominion Energy’s Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project. Dominion President Bob Blue shared the damage on a second-quarter earnings call. Two hundred and thirty million dollars … just in the latest quarter alone. That is on top of the five hundred and eighty million from the quarter before. The project is eighty-one percent complete. Thirty-one turbines are already spinning … producing more than four hundred and fifty megawatts. But the finish line just moved. Completion is now expected by the end of twenty twenty-seven. Weather delays. Vessel maintenance. And some particularly complicated turbines to install. Blue says the project will still save customers money. And Dominion expects to pocket more than five hundred million dollars in savings from grid upgrade cost shifts. The total price tag … eleven-point-six billion dollars. Now … if Dominion is feeling the squeeze in Virginia … Eversource up in New England is feeling something worse. The utility’s second-quarter profit dropped eighty-four percent. Net income fell to just fifty-three-point-seven million dollars. Why? A one-hundred-and-sixty-four-million-dollar charge tied to the offshore wind projects they already sold. South Fork Wind. Revolution Wind. Eversource got out of offshore wind back in twenty twenty-four … but the bills keep coming. Higher-than-expected payments to Global Infrastructure Partners are dragging down the bottom line. So one company builds through the pain. Another walks away … and still pays for it. But here is some good news. Over in Hamburg, Germany … Nordex just posted a quarter that would make any CEO smile. Sales up sixteen percent. EBITDA … more than doubled … to two hundred and twenty-four million euros. Margins hit ten-point-three percent. Net income … one hundred and eleven million euros. Up from thirty-one million a year ago. And orders? Up thirty-two percent. Three-point-one gigawatts of new turbine orders in just one quarter. Their total order book now stands at eighteen-point-four billion euros. Nordex CEO José Luis Blanco confirmed the full-year guidance. The onshore wind giant is not just surviving. It is thriving. Now … let us go to sea. Classification society ABS says floating offshore wind is about to create a brand-new problem. Not enough ships. A new report says demand for large anchor-handling vessels and multipurpose support vessels will surge as floating wind projects go from small demonstrations to full commercial scale. Here is the number that tells the story. A single one-gigawatt floating wind farm needs about one hundred and ninety-eight anchors … and nearly two hundred kilometers of mooring lines. That is far more than a single deepwater oil and gas platform. ABS says shortages in certain vessel classes could hit as early as twenty twenty-nine. Global floating wind capacity is expected to grow from about two hundred and seventy megawatts today … to fourteen gigawatts by twenty forty. The race for ships … has begun. And speaking of ships … Japan just finished building one. Mitsui O.S.K. Lines held a naming ceremony in Nagasaki for the Wind Whale. Japan’s first coastal deck carrier built specifically for offshore wind. One hundred and forty-nine meters long. A flush deck designed so that monopiles, towers, blades and nacelles can roll right on from the stern. It even has dynamic positioning … so it can transfer cargo directly to installation vessels at sea. Built in China by Taizhou Sanfu Ship Engineering … the Wind Whale will carry foundations from a factory in Okayama to construction sites around Japan. A country that once built ships for oil … now builds them for wind. And finally … back home in Iowa. The state Supreme Court ruled that the CEO of Global Fiberglass Solutions can be held personally liable for dumping thirteen hundred used wind turbine blades across the state. CEO Donald Lilly and another executive argued they were never in Iowa. The court disagreed. Lilly signed the contracts. Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird put it plainly. They were hired to recycle used wind turbine blades. Instead … they dumped them. Four hundred blades piled up along Interstate 35 near Ellsworth alone. The lesson? You can build an industry on clean energy. But you still have to clean up after yourself. So what does all of this mean … if you work in wind? It means the money is real now. Projects are not getting canceled. They are getting more expensive. And that changes the math for every engineer, every project manager, every supply chain director reading a bid today. Tariffs come and go. But an eleven-billion-dollar project does not stop on a dime. It means the vessels you need may not be there when you need them. If you are planning a floating wind project for the early twenty thirties … your vessel strategy should already be on paper. It means manufacturers who kept their discipline … who held their margins and grew their order books … are the ones writing the next chapter. And it means accountability is coming to every corner of this business. You cannot just build turbines. You have to manage the turbines. This industry asked the world to trust it with the future of energy. That trust comes with responsibility. And that is the state of the wind industry for August 3rd, 2026.

In this episode of CCA On the Air, Alliance Engagement Director Jennifer Torres sits down with Anika Van Eaton and Brendan Williams from uAspire to unpack their December 2025 report, Caution: Prices May Vary. After analyzing 211 financial aid offers from institutions across 34 states, uAspire found that the way colleges communicate cost to students is inconsistent, jargon-filled, and in some cases deeply misleading — with real consequences for enrollment, persistence, and completion. Financial aid communication, it turns out, isn't just a formatting problem; it's a structural barrier standing between students and their degrees. Listeners will hear what the data actually shows and what states, systems, and campus practitioners can do right now to make financial aid offers work better for students.

Novo Resources Corp executive chairman Mike Spreadborough talked with Proactive about the company's planned 2,700-metre reverse circulation drilling program at the Tibooburra Gold Project in New South Wales. Spreadborough was joined by general manager of exploration Rohan Williams to outline the objectives of the campaign, which is expected to begin late in the September quarter of 2026, subject to regulatory and landholder approvals. The program is planned to include approximately 1,700 metres of drilling at the Clone prospect and 1,000 metres at Pioneer South. At Clone, Novo Resources Corp aims to extend high-grade gold mineralisation identified during its previous drilling campaign. Earlier results cited in the interview included 12 metres at 5.9 grams per tonne gold, 17 metres at 2.4 grams per tonne and four metres at 13.7 grams per tonne. Williams said the mineralised system appeared to plunge shallowly to the north beneath a creek. He explained that the company's objective was to follow the structure and “replicate these high-grade intercepts that we received last year and track it down plunge.” The campaign represents the second stage of Novo Resources Corp's farm-in and joint venture arrangement with Manhattan Gold Corporation Ltd and its subsidiary, Awati Resources Pty Ltd. Completion of the program is expected to allow Novo Resources Corp to earn a 70% interest in the project and become manager of the joint venture. The company also plans further soil sampling across the wider 22-kilometre system to improve its understanding of the source and scale of the gold mineralisation.

Fresh off Mary Kay Cabot's interview, Ken Carman pushes back on her read that Deshaun Watson faces less hostility from Browns fans than social media suggests, arguing her own comment about scheduling road games to shield Watson from home jeers actually proves his point. That spirals into a proposal to ban callers who cite training camp completion percentages and touchdown counts as evidence in the Sanders-Watson debate, with the crew mocking how meaningless "stats" from unpadded practices against non-tackling defenses really are. They debate whether the show's own audience has been conditioned to care about this shallow analysis anyway, trace the trend of charting practice throws back over a decade to Brian Hoyer and Baker Mayfield-era coverage, and wonder what directives Browns reporters like Daryl Ruiter are getting from their bosses. It closes with a plan to poll callers on both Watson's chances and whether stat-obsessed callers should get the boot.

In this episode, host Ross Frey, Senior Product Manager and resident MTM/CMR strategist, sits down with Cindy Henry, Director of Payer Products at Outcomes, to unpack one of the biggest changes hitting Medicare Advantage plans: CMS's intent to return the CMR completion rate to the Star Ratings program beginning in measure year 2027. Ross and Cindy explore how the industry reacted to the latest CMS Advance Notice, why the CMR measure's return matters, and how MTM strategy has quietly shifted during its two‑year placement on the display page. Together, they outline the pressures plans are feeling—from shrinking margins to rising expectations around clinical quality—and the renewed focus on the value of medication therapy management, total cost of care, and local pharmacy engagement. A key topic throughout the episode is the impact of CMS's expanded MTM eligibility criteria, which significantly increases denominators for 2025 and beyond. Cindy explains how this shift forces payers to rethink scale, budget, ROI, and operational models, while Ross shares Outcomes' cut‑point predictions and how performance is likely to redistribute once the measure becomes active again. The conversation also highlights Outcomes' strategy to support both health plans and community pharmacies as they prepare for 2027. Ross describes work underway to reduce documentation burden, streamline workflows, leverage new technology, and allow pharmacists to practice at the top of their license—ultimately helping MTM delivery scale without sacrificing quality. By the end of the episode, the message is clear: Plans that begin modeling, staffing, vendor alignment, and workflow modernization now will be best positioned when Star Ratings recalibrate in 2029.

Why does finishing one dream often reveal the next? In this episode, I introduce the Soul Map Spiral™ and explain why dream completion isn't a straight line—it's a living, embodied process. We explore the key thresholds along the journey, including the Dream Spark, the Soul Yes, the Preservation Chamber, and the Expression Gate, and why each one prepares you for what's next. I also introduce the No-Drama Path to Completion—the relational, emotional, and embodied work that helps us stop abandoning what matters most. We'll explore relational sovereignty, the Drama Triangle, reparenting, embodiment, and the invisible patterns that can derail meaningful dreams. Because From Dreaming to Done™ isn't about dreaming bigger. It's about honoring the dream your heart and soul began—and becoming the person who can finish it.

The Eternal Significance of Seven by Autumn Dickson There are many patterns in the Old Testament. The story of Naaman, the Syrian, falls right in line with one of these patterns. Naaman was a Syrian captain. The Lord utilized Naaman to deliver Syria. He was a good man, but he was also a leper. A captured Israelite girl resided as a servant in his home. She audibly wishes that Naaman could visit the prophet in Israel because the prophet could cleanse him of his leprosy. The testimony of the captured servant girl reaches Naaman and through a series of diplomatic relations, Naaman finds himself outside of Elisha's door. Elisha doesn't come out, but he does send instructions for Naaman. 2 Kings 5:10 And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean. Naaman is supposed to wash in Jordan seven times. He's annoyed about these instructions for a number of reasons: Elisha didn't come out to greet him, the river Jordan isn't as nice as the rivers in his homeland, and it seems like such a silly thing. Despite his annoyance, his servants are able to convince to wash seven times. He does so, and he is cured of his leprosy. I actually talked about this story four years ago when I went through Come Follow Me the first time. I talked about how arbitrary it was for Naaman to wash seven times in the river Jordan. I still stand by the principles I taught in that post. However, I am now four years older and wiser, and I have learned that washing in the river seven times is not arbitrary at all. Seven is a very symbolic number. In the bible, the number seven symbolizes completeness, so let's look at this story from that angle and let's also generalize the details just a tad so that they become relatable. A man wants to be clean (it specifically says that he was “cleansed” from leprosy). He has to go to a prophet to figure out how to be cleaned. The prophet instructs him to “be complete,” and he will be cleansed. He is cleansed. I think this is so cool. If we want to be clean in our day and age, the Lord still works through the same patterns. He works through His prophets to point us in the right direction. Through his prophet, we are given instructions. If we follow through on those instructions towards completion, we are cleansed. Naaman's story is a parallel for receiving salvation. I was definitely mistaken in thinking that seven was an arbitrary number. However, I actually love that I made the mistake because it led me to an important realization: bathing in the river seven times is not what healed Naaman. I don't think there was some odd organism in the river that year that ate away at his chronic bacterial infection. I think the Lord healed him for his obedience. And isn't that the key here?! As Latter-day Saints, we believe in salvation through grace. Naaman didn't actually wash off his leprosy in the river. He was healed by the Lord. It was a gift that was given to him. But the Lord didn't cleanse Naaman until after Naaman was obedient in washing seven times, in being “complete.” Latter-day Saints believe that salvation is a gift; we also believe we will be judged by our actions and whether we followed the Lord. The Lord judges us, cleanses us, and gives us that gift of salvation if He judges us worthy. We see this same pattern multiple times in the Old Testament. It was the same with the walls of Jericho. The Israelites were instructed by the prophet to circle the city seven times, and the Lord made the walls come down so that they could enter into the promised land. The Israelites didn't make the walls come down; they were obedient and the Lord judged them and enabled them to enter into the promised land. We work towards completion, and the Lord cleanses us so that we can enter into the Celestial Kingdom. So what does it mean to be complete? There are probably a lot of things to be said about reaching completion, but the first thing that came to mind in this particular moment was the captive Israelite girl. There were skirmishes along the border of Syria and Israel. Syria would perform raids into Israel, and they would steal women and children and turn them into slaves. This is likely how she came to be a slave in Naaman's household. She was young. Some biblical scholars believe she was anywhere from 8-14 years old. We know nothing of her family, whether they were killed or put into slavery elsewhere or whether she was simply taken away from them. What we do know is that she was in a pagan household, and despite her youth, she believed in a prophet in Israel. Belief will take us so far, and yet, she takes it beyond belief. That little servant girl held true compassion. She loved Naaman's household enough to want Naaman to be cured and okay. Despite the fact that Naaman might have been partially to blame for her slavery, she had compassion. Completion does not mean perfection. If we specifically strive towards perfection, we often end up discouraged. Instead, I would hope that we strive for completion. In my mind, completion means that we become beings that mirror Christ. We have faith. We have enough love in our hearts that our actions follow suit. That little servant girl reflected Christ. She loved the very people who betrayed her. Being betrayed enabled her to save Naaman. We don't know if she had to work through homesickness or anger or deep depression, but we do know she loved. I think that love helped her be complete in the sense that she turned outwards and was like Christ, but I also have the distinct impression that her love healed her. No matter what she went through, that love healed her enough that she could be compassionate. I testify that the Lord teaches us His gospel in patterns. He teaches His gospel again and again and again through His servants, the prophets. I testify that He is the one who gives salvation to us, and I also testify that doing our best to become the kind of person who reflects Him brings healing and joy and peace into our lives no matter what we've been through.

In this episode of UC Today, host Kristian McCann sits down with Nick Gonios, VP of Learning Transformation and Company Ambassador at TalentLMS, to explore one of the biggest hidden challenges in corporate learning: the Completion Trap. As AI rapidly transforms the workplace and organizations race to reskill their workforces, traditional learning metrics are increasingly falling short. Completion percentages and attendance figures may look impressive on a dashboard, but they reveal very little about whether employees can apply what they've learned to improve business outcomes. In this conversation, Nick explains why organizations have become fixated on measuring learning activity instead of learning impact, how outdated KPIs continue to reinforce the problem, and why this disconnect is creating friction, reducing productivity, and slowing organizational transformation.Key topics covered include:Why course completion is a poor indicator of real learning and competence.What TalentLMS' latest research reveals about learning metrics, employee behavior, and business impact.How AI can move beyond content creation to deliver personalized, relevant learning experiences.Practical steps organizations can take to align learning initiatives with productivity and business outcomes.Next StepsIf you enjoyed this discussion, don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe to UC Today for more conversations with industry leaders shaping the future of work, AI, learning, and enterprise technology.

WHAT A PUTZ! - Trump Accounts launch July 4, with the NYSE and Nasdaq set to ring the opening bell from the Oval Office. - Program gives a $1,000 Treasury-funded investment account to U.S. children born from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2028. - Kids under 18 can have accounts, but only newborns in that four-year window get the federal seed money. - Parents, family, employers, nonprofits, and governments can add money, with a general $5,000 annual contribution cap. - Money is invested in index funds and generally locked up until the child reaches adulthood. - Kevin Hassett pitched it as a way to teach kids about markets, ownership, saving, and compounding. His argument is that the more young people get exposed to investing early, and market ownership becomes less of an upper-income club. - However - > the government is handing out taxpayer-funded brokerage seed money while selling it as capitalism. - Also odd: the benefit may skew toward families who already know how to file forms, open accounts, and add more money. - So basically it is a forced financial-literacy experiment wrapped in a political brand name, with a socialist starter check to teach capitalism. First-Half Winners and Losers - S&P 500 finished the first half up roughly 7% to 8%, with the rally led by AI hardware, chips, memory, and data-center infrastructure. - Biggest winners were the shovel sellers: Sandisk up about 780%, Micron up about 296%, Western Digital up about 240%, Seagate up about 226%. - Overseas AI hardware ripped too: South Korea's Kospi up 123%, helped by Samsung up 169% and SK Hynix up 303%. - Semiconductor ETFs had a monster Q2: iShares Semiconductor ETF up 86.8%, VanEck Semiconductor ETF up 64.8%. - Japan's Nikkei rose about 38%; FTSE 100 gained about 5.8%. - Losers were the software/platform names that could not prove immediate AI payoff. - Microsoft was down about 24% despite being one of the biggest AI spenders. - Momentum stocks had one of their worst stretches in two decades as the Magnificent Seven slipped on capex worries. - Crypto and gold also lagged the AI-infrastructure trade. - Equity BULLS are running like it was San Fermin, Spain...

We said something is going to break - MU shares lifted to ATH on the news - big big beat - Micron's latest quarter showed a dramatic acceleration from the year-ago period, with revenue rising from $9,301 to $41,460 and EPS increasing from $1.91 to $25.11. - HUGE uptick in guidance - Apple increased pricing, Dell is increasing prices next week (17%), Microsoft raised price on XBox, HP across the board increase, Lenovo/Xiaomi increases, - NOW: Apple is lobbying the Trump administration for clearance to buy memory chips from China's ChangXin Memory Technologies Korea Goes All-In On AI Memory - Samsung and SK Hynix are backing a huge South Korea chip buildout tied to AI memory, HBM, advanced DRAM, packaging and data centers. - Samsung's plan includes hundreds of trillions of won for new fabs, including HBM facilities in Cheonan and Onyang. - SK Hynix is expanding Yongin and planning a major new chip base as it rides demand from Nvidia-linked HBM supply. - Government angle: Seoul wants domestic chip capacity treated like national infrastructure, not just corporate capex. - The state is trying to lock in supply-chain control before China, Taiwan, Japan and the U.S. pull more production into their own subsidy zones. - Market wrinkle: AI memory is hot now, but memory companies have a long history of overbuilding into strong pricing cycles. - Governments are no longer just subsidizing chips — they are helping plan semiconductor cities. RAM Job? - Samsung, SK hynix, and Micron were hit with a U.S. antitrust class-action lawsuit over alleged DRAM price fixing. - Allegation: the big three coordinated supply cuts while shifting capacity away from regular DDR3/DDR4 memory and into high-bandwidth memory for AI servers. - Plaintiffs say the three companies control roughly 90% of the DRAM market. - Conventional DRAM prices allegedly jumped about 700% over four years. - Complaint argues that in a normal commodity market, at least one supplier would usually increase production when prices spike. - Instead, the lawsuit says all three moved in the same direction at the same time. DRAM: We Have Seen This Movie Before - Yes, there was a similar DRAM price-fixing scandal in the 2000s. - DOJ investigation covered alleged DRAM price fixing from roughly 1998 through 2002. - Hynix pleaded guilty in 2005 and agreed to pay a $185 million criminal fine. - Samsung pleaded guilty in 2005 and agreed to pay a $300 million criminal fine. - Infineon pleaded guilty earlier, in 2004, and agreed to pay a $160 million fine. - Micron was involved in the investigation but received amnesty/cooperation treatment rather than the same criminal fine path. - Several executives were also charged or pleaded guilty. - State AGs and private plaintiffs later pursued civil cases tied to overpayment claims. - Difference now: the new case is not yet proven and appears focused on alleged coordinated supply restriction during the AI/HBM boom.

Comcast Breaks Itself Up - Comcast plans to split media and connectivity into two separate companies. - NBCUniversal and Sky would be spun off in a tax-free deal; Comcast keeps broadband, wireless, and cable. - Completion expected within a year. - Shareholders would own both Comcast and the new NBCUniversal. - Comcast shares rose on the news; Charter also jumped as investors speculated Comcast could eventually pursue a broadband-scale deal. AI Trade Gets a Warning Label - Bank for International Settlements flagged the AI boom as a financial-stability risk. - The main concerns: elevated valuations, investor complacency, complex funding structures, and debt financing across the AI supply chain. - BIS also warned that record public debt and leveraged hedge-fund activity in sovereign bonds could amplify shocks. - Quote from BIS General Manager Pablo Hernandez de Cos: "Policy actions must reinforce each other." - The interesting part: central bankers are not saying AI is fake; they are saying the financing stack may be fragile. Inflation Back Above 4% - BEA's PCE price index rose 4.1% year over year in May. - April was 3.8%; March was 3.5%; February was 2.9%. - This keeps pressure on the Fed because PCE is the Fed's preferred inflation gauge. - Core PCE may later be revised lower because of BEA methodology changes. - Goldman estimated May core PCE could be trimmed to 3.2% from 3.4%; JPMorgan expected 3.3%. - Funny-but-real detail: part of the potential revision comes from how BEA prices portfolio management, legal services, and computer software. Jobs Report Becomes Bad-News-Is-Bad-News - June payrolls are due Thursday because markets are closed Friday for Independence Day. - The setup is awkward: strong jobs could mean stronger economy, but also higher odds of Fed hikes. - Looking back - May payrolls were hot at 172,000 versus an 85,000 forecast, with unemployment steady at 4.3%. - Remember - after the June Fed meeting, policymakers were clearly focused on inflation, not rescue cuts. Oil, Iran, and the Market's New Weird Routine - Oil stayed volatile around renewed U.S.-Iran tensions and peace-talk headlines. - Brent rose 1.6% Monday to $73.15; WTI rose 2.2% to $70.75. - Markets rallied anyway, helped by signs talks would resume and shipping routes were stabilizing. - The odd market behavior: geopolitical escalation keeps getting followed by de-escalation headlines and risk-on rallies. - This is now part of the trading pattern: weekend war scare, Monday relief rally, repeat. --- New attacks by USA on Iran happened at approx 4:30PM on Friday (markets closed) and then a halt to the fighting on Sunday - before the futures opened. Odd : Wendy's Becomes a Meme Stock - Wendy's became the latest retail-trader short-squeeze target. - Stock surged 25% last Wednesday, then gained another 9% Thursday. - Barron's said the move followed a CFO shakeup and WallStreetBets attention. - New CFO Steve Cirulis came from Potbelly and is also taking the Chief Strategy Officer title. - Wendy's had fallen 47% over the past year before the rally. - Short interest was nearly 30% of the public float, making the stock easier to squeeze. - Trian, Nelson Peltz's firm, owned nearly 15 million shares valued around $93 million. SpaceX Bonds Slip After Big Debut - SpaceX sold $25 billion of investment-grade bonds, its first major public debt deal. - Demand was huge, with roughly $85 billion to $98 billion of orders. - The 10-year tranche priced about 1.4 percentage points over Treasurys. - Bonds weakened quickly after pricing. - The 10-year yield rose near 6%, with the spread moving above 1.6 percentage points. - Longer-dated 2046 and 2056 bonds took the most pressure. - The pushback: bond buyers want more yield for a company still funding rockets, Starlink, AI/data-center spending, and Mars ambitions. - Clean read: equity investors bought the story; bond investors immediately marked it down. Yentervention - Yen weakened again, pushing toward the 162-per-dollar zone and near its weakest level in about 40 years. - Japan keeps warning it is ready for "decisive action" or to respond "at any time." - Market does not seem scared for long. - Japan already spent heavily defending the yen, including a roughly $73 billion yen-buying operation after the currency broke past 160. - U.S. rates are still high, the Fed is not rushing to cut, and the Bank of Japan is still moving slowly. - That keeps the carry trade alive: borrow cheap yen, buy higher-yielding dollars. - Japan's foreign reserves fell 5.6% in May after intervention, showing the defense is expensive.   Love the Show?

Ever feel like you're carrying around a heaviness you can't quite explain? Maybe you're exhausted, distracted, or constantly thinking about something that happened months or even years ago. Maybe you can't figure out why it's so hard to move forward. This week's podcast might explain it. Coach K and I are talking about something we don't do very well as humans: completion. We rush from one thing to the next. We don't celebrate our wins. We avoid difficult endings. We leave conversations unfinished. We never fully process losses, transitions, or even really great moments. And then we wonder why we feel stuck. In this episode, we talk about: Why endings often feel like failures How unfinished experiences create emotional and mental clutter Why completion is essential for learning and growth Practical rituals and conversations that can help you let go and move forward The question to ask yourself if life feels heavy right now: What in my life remains incomplete? Listen to the episode and let me know what comes up for you. Love, Sari   Quote:  "If you're feeling heavy and if you're feeling stuck, you might look at what is left incomplete in your life. Because if you go back and start intentionally completing those things, you're going to start feeling lighter right away." Sari de la Motte Can't get enough of me?

A brief note. These episodes are being released during a five-week period when I am away and not tracking current events in real time. The archetypal patterns I offer are reliable. What is expressing them in the world right now is yours to hold alongside what I offer.___Completion, Crossing, and New BeginningSomething is completing and something is beginning this week. Venus, who has been moving through Cancer since mid-May, turning the relational field toward nurturing and genuine care, is preparing to leave. Before she goes, she has significant work to do.Key Cycles This Week:Tuesday, June 9: Venus conjuncts Jupiter in Cancer. Mercury in Cancer squares Saturn in Aries. Two movements pulling in different directions. Venus meeting Jupiter in Cancer amplifies what nourishes — warmth, generosity, the sense of genuine belonging. This is one of the more beautiful transits of recent weeks. Let it land. Let what is good be felt fully rather than held at arm's length by the urgency of everything else.At the same time, Mercury squares Saturn. The feeling mind meets hard reality. Difficult conversations may be necessary. The gap between what is longed for and what is currently possible becomes harder to ignore. Hold both. Expansion and honest reckoning are not contradictions in a genuine threshold time.Friday, June 12: Venus in Cancer squares Chiron in Aries. Before Venus leaves Cancer, she meets the Wounded Healer. This square touches old relational wounds — places where the longing for genuine belonging has met disappointment or the pain of being too much or not enough within systems never designed to hold the fullness of who you are. For many, this wound is not only personal. It is ancestral and collective.Venus square Chiron does not offer easy resolution. But the Shamanic tradition has always known that when a wound is brought into honest awareness and witnessed rather than managed, something in it begins to metabolize. What surfaces this week around old relational pain may be less a sign that something is wrong and more an invitation to witness what has long needed witnessing.Saturday, June 13: Venus enters Leo, remaining until July 9. The register shifts. Where Cancer sought quiet belonging and nourishment, Leo seeks expression, visibility, and the joy of being fully seen in one's vitality. This is not vanity. It is the soul's genuine need to be witnessed in its radiance, not only its tenderness. In a collective moment asking so much gravity and endurance, Venus in Leo is not a distraction. It is replenishment.Sunday, June 14: New Moon at 24 degrees of Gemini. The lunation cycle renews in the sign of the Communicator. In a field still charged by Uranus in Gemini, what wants to begin here is not a return to familiar patterns of thought but genuinely new perception. In a time when the information field is saturated and often deliberately disorienting, this lunation asks: what new way of knowing is trying to emerge in you, from your own direct experience rather than what you have been told?Plant that.Larger FrameThis week holds the full arc of Venus in Cancer — her expansion, her reckoning with old wounds, and her departure into Leo. What have you learned since mid-May about what genuinely nourishes you? Where has old relational pain asked to be witnessed? Venus carries what she has learned in Cancer into Leo. The nourishment becomes fuel for expression. The tenderness becomes the ground of genuine visibility.And the New Moon in Gemini opens a new chapter in how we think and communicate, with ourselves, with each other, with the larger world trying to find its new form.Reflection QuestionsWhere am I being invited to let genuine goodness or expansion actually land rather than holding it at arm's length?What old relational wound is asking to be witnessed rather than managed right now?As Venus moves into Leo and the New Moon plants new seeds, what wants to be expressed that has not yet had enough room?Let what is good be felt. Let what is wounded be witnessed. Let what is new have the quiet attention of this lunation.The web of life is always reorganizing toward something, even when we cannot yet see its full shape.Podcast poem: Wisdom of the Deer by Kent OsbourneIf this transmission has been useful, share it with someone who might need orientation in these times.Support the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.comThis episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

Pastor Nicoletti continues in Philippians, this time preaching on “True Completion” from Philippians 3:12-16.

In this episode, Jo shares the June 2026 Flying Stars Feng Shui forecast, beginning from 5 June 2026 at 11:50pm, becoming more noticeable from 6 June onwards. June arrives with exceptionally strong Fire energy. We are already in Period 9, a 20-year Fire period, and 2026 is the Yang Fire Horse year. As we move towards the summer solstice on 21 June, the Fire element becomes even more pronounced. Fire is associated with: Visibility Reputation Fame Recognition Marketing Branding Performance Illumination Exposure Expansion This makes June a powerful month for anyone working with public presence, creativity, performance, media, communication, reputation-building or personal visibility. At the centre of the chart, the Flying Star 4 arrives, bringing themes of popularity, creativity, study, romance, writing, learning and communication. Because the centre influences the whole chart, these themes ripple through the entire month. Jo also revisits the Trilogy of Luck: Heaven Luck — the stars, timing, BaZi and cycles we cannot change, but can read and understand. Earth Luck — the Feng Shui of our homes, rooms, sectors, furniture and physical environment. Man Luck — the choices we make, the actions we take, and how consciously we work with the energy available. The episode then moves through each sector of the home for June 2026. The South contains wealth potential, but also pressure. This sector can support prosperity, especially for those who benefit from Fire energy, but it should be kept peaceful and quiet due to the annual misfortune star. The Southwest brings auspicious energy for new beginnings and longer-term wealth. Spending time here, or sitting with your back to the southwest, can help draw in supportive energy. The West supports success, authority and helpful opportunities. It is a useful sector for increasing recognition and results. The Northwest needs care, as a difficult monthly star brings potential challenges. Avoid renovations, loud noise or heated arguments in this area. The North holds surprising prosperity potential, including unexpected opportunities or windfalls. However, because the annual Six Killings energy is also present, this sector should be used calmly rather than aggressively activated. The Northeast is creative and supportive for study or writing, but may also carry a risk of misunderstanding, gossip, betrayal or unclear intentions. Use this area gently and avoid mean-spirited dynamics. The East is one of the more supportive sectors for completion. This is a strong area for finishing projects, meeting deadlines, wrapping things up and seeing earlier work come to fruition. The Southeast brings movement, growth and momentum, but also conflict or impatience. It can help with procrastination, but needs to be handled carefully to avoid arguments or impulsive reactions. Jo then looks at how June 2026 may affect the Chinese zodiac animals. The Rat clashes with the Horse, making June busy, stimulating and potentially demanding — but also lucky for wealth and opportunity. The Ox should be mindful of communication and misunderstandings. The Tiger combines with the Horse, increasing Fire energy, motivation and momentum, but also impatience. The Rabbit benefits from completion energy and may see results from earlier efforts. The Dragon and Snake should avoid drama, politics and unnecessary conflict. The Horse experiences amplified energy and should be mindful of self-penalty, overdoing things or becoming its own obstacle. The Goat is well-supported by the Horse and may enjoy cooperation, visibility and relationship growth. The Monkey benefits from new beginnings and a lift in energy. The Rooster may find June successful, with helpful people and problem-solving opportunities. The Dog combines with the Horse but may face complications, delays or unexpected challenges. The Pig has generally steady energy but should avoid unnecessary risks and protect health and energy levels. Jo closes the episode by inviting listeners to get in touch for Feng Shui, BaZi or Qi Men consultations, and to join the Patreon family for daily Qi updates.
