Crucial warnings that Wellington's Moa Point could catastrophically flood were missed, according to an Independent Crown Review into the February disaster. 14 billion litres of raw sewage has since spewed into the sea off the city's South Coast as a result of the plant failure. The review, released today, points to systemic failures in leadership by the city council, Wellington Water and plant operator Veolia as contributing to the meltdown. Reporter Ellen O'Dwyer spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

Oman has long played one of the Middle East's most unusual diplomatic roles: maintaining close ties with rivals and quietly creating space for enemies to talk. Secret U.S.-Iran negotiations in Muscat helped pave the way for the 2015 nuclear deal, and Oman has continued to serve as an intermediary on prisoner exchanges, regional conflicts, and nuclear diplomacy. But the Iran war has thrust Oman into a much more precarious position. Sitting directly across the Strait of Hormuz from Iran, the small Gulf state is no longer just a mediator on the sidelines. It is now deeply exposed to a conflict that threatens shipping, regional security, and the very diplomatic relationships Oman has spent decades cultivating. I'm joined by Tyler Parker, a professor at Mercer University who studies the foreign policies of the Gulf states, to discuss how Oman became the region's indispensable intermediary, why the Strait of Hormuz has made Muscat so important to the current crisis, and whether Oman could ultimately help create a path toward ending the war.

Houston grabs crucial wins against both New York Teams while Hunter Brown took a big step towards regaining his ace form, and Yordan got back on the homer horse.

Following a weekend sweep of the Seattle Mariners during which the Toronto Blue Jays inducted Buck Martinez into their newly opened Hall of Excellence, the gap in the Wild Card race shrunk to 1.5 games. The Blue Jays now head out on a nine-game road trip with the first stop being in Cleveland for a key series against a Guardians team who are the team the Jays are chasing. Justin and Patrick discuss the performance of the Blue Jays pitching staff, hot and cold offensive players, and what lies ahead for the team on the road.

Ailish Forfar and Jesse Rubinoff kick things off with Jensen Lewis (1:53)! They break down how the Guardians are performing as they get ready to take on the Jays tomorrow evening, if PCA has run away with the NL MVP after hitting five homers against the Reds, what it means to have below .500 teams competing for the playoffs, how Milwaukee is finding success despite their low home run numbers, and much more. Then, James Palmer joins the show (26:00) ahead of the NFL Season to discuss the biggest stories heading into the season. They start off with Aaron Donald's NFL return with the Rams, whether Dallas could be a legitimate threat this season, the Bills' outlook under new head coach Joe Brady and much more. Ailish and Jesse end things off discussing Messi retiring from the Argentina Men's National Team.

Ohio State gains momentum over Texas as critical injury concerns emerge for the Longhorns. With left tackle Trevor Goosby's knee bruise casting doubt on Texas's offensive line, questions arise about their ability to protect against Ohio State's talented pass rush. Arch Manning faces a formidable Buckeye defense, while Colin Simmons looks to exploit any pass protection vulnerability. Will depth and physicality tip the balance for Ryan Day's squad, or can Hollywood Smothers and Raleek Brown ignite Texas's ground game? LSU prepares to host Clemson in a high-stakes showdown marked by coaching scrutiny and roster uncertainty. Can Dabo Swinney's loyalty to Christopher Vizzina at quarterback translate to early success in Death Valley, or will LSU's talented true freshmen at defensive tackle become a liability? Special teams, injury rumors surrounding key players, and the impact of the SEC and Big Ten's stance on NFL-to-college transfers all add intrigue to these prime matchups.

Israel just held important Likud primary elections, yet hardly anyone outside Israel, and even many people inside Israel, heard about them.These internal elections matter because Likud members help shape the party's future list of Knesset representatives. Unlike many Israeli political parties, where candidates are selected internally by a small leadership circle, or just by the party leader, the Likud gives registered members a meaningful opportunity to influence who represents the party and what ideological direction it takes.As members of the Likud party, I was blessed to vote together with my parents. For me, this was much more than a political moment. It was another expression of Jewish history and our family's active participation in the Geulah, the redemption process unfolding before our eyes.Years ago, after witnessing the disastrous Oslo “peace” process, I realized that protesting from the sidelines was not enough. Inspired by Moshe Feiglin and his Manhigut Yehudit movement, tens of thousands of idealistic Israelis entered politics to influence the Likud and the State of Israel from within.Did we achieve everything we wanted? Absolutely not. Politics involves power struggles, international pressure, compromise and plenty of disappointment. Netanyahu and the Likud are not perfect. But without religious, Zionist and values-driven Israelis getting involved, Israel's political direction would be far worse today.Faith in Hashem is essential, but faith does not mean passivity.We must trust Hashem while accepting responsibility for the tools He places in our hands. We must pray, vote, organize, influence and help shape Israel into the truly Jewish state it is destined to become.I encourage everyone to stop sitting on the sidelines and merely complaining. Join a political party in Israel. Influence its leadership. Help choose its representatives. And if you are not yet living in Israel, come home and take your place in this extraordinary process.We are not merely watching Jewish history.We are helping make it.Am Yisrael Chai!!!Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

Le sujet fort de l'actualité foot du jour vu par Jérôme Rothen et la Dream Team.

Today, Steve looks toward the horizon, at the threats and challenges that enterprises and business leaders will face in 2026 and beyond. He also gives advice on how everyone, from the board to the practitioner, can meet these challenges, and answers some of the questions he's received this year. Key Takeaways: Steve's four key drivers of cyber risk heading into 2026 are AI, supply chain, quantum, and geopolitical instability. Crucial to cyber resilience are strong governance and a security-conscious culture. Adaptive governance and adaptive security are keys to managing the challenges of 2026 and beyond.  Tune in to hear more about: Steve's four key drivers of cyber risk heading into 2026 (2:23) Questions to ask, whether you're a board member, an executive, or practitioner (16:14) The changing role of the board (18:54) Standout Quotes: “ Resilience really needs an organizational wide holistic approach that takes technology, it takes governance, it takes operational readiness, and really importantly, it takes people into account.” - Steve Durbin “I think boards need to really take it upon themselves to absolutely recognize that cyber risk is a national risk. It is a business ending risk, and they need to ensure that they don't just have incident response and resilience in place, but that they also have a tried and tested plan, so this is good old fashioned BCP — business continuity planning — with a cyber flavor.” - Steve Durbin “Cyber risk reporting has to be business outcome oriented. Boards, business executives understand revenue, operations, customer impact, legal exposure. That's the way we have to be reporting cyber risk. It's not about how many attacks we repelled, it's not about how good our systems might be. You need to translate it into business language. If you can do that, not only will you get buy-in, but you'll also have a much richer conversation about the role that cyber and therefore cybersecurity and cyber resilience play in the business.” - Steve Durbin Read the transcript of this episodeSubscribe to the ISF Podcast wherever you listen to podcastsConnect with us on LinkedIn and Twitter From the Information Security Forum, the leading authority on cyber, information security, and risk management.

A federal construction firm runs standard operating procedures that assign every new contract an owner responsible for starting the submittal register, safety plan, and QC plan before the pre-construction meeting. Frank Spencer of Aztec explains how his team makes leadership, not the individual, accountable when a step falls through the cracks, and how a small firm keeps that discipline without hiring anyone to manage it. What you'll learn in this episode: Why accountability for a missed SOP step belongs to the leader who pushed it down, not the team member How to audit a segment of your process the moment something falls through the cracks instead of running slow full reviews The email and communication matrix that tells the team who must respond and who is only being informed How to cut SOP fluff and narrow focus when a firm realizes it has built too many layers Why a small business stays disciplined on process even when nobody can be hired to own it full time Chapters: 0:00 - How to ensure SOPs actually get used and activated 1:15 - Accountability sits with the leader who pushed the process down 3:34 - Auditing a segment quickly when a step is missed 4:52 - Staying disciplined on touch points before a problem hits 5:51 - Crucial conversations when the SOP is not working 6:33 - Cutting fluff and narrowing focus to fewer layers 8:00 - The email matrix and subject-line rules that reduce confusion 9:00 - Solving the frustration that started the whole system Mindy gives you the federal opportunities, agency signals, recompete intel, and pursuit briefs that tell you not just what contracts exist, but which ones to chase and how to win them.

Jesus teaches his disciples that the path to greatness occurs through humble service, recognizing that it is the Lord who is at the center of our lives. (Lectionary #424) August 22, 2026 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

By Christmas 1776, the American Revolution stood on the brink of collapse. In this episode, we follow George Washington's daring crossing of the ice-choked Delaware River, his stunning victory over the Hessians at Trenton, and his masterful escape from Cornwallis before delivering another decisive blow at Princeton. Along the way, we separate fact from legend, explore the courage and hardships endured by both sides, and examine the leadership and operational brilliance that made these ten days one of the greatest military turnarounds in history. Discover how Washington's bold gamble revived the Patriot cause and gave a struggling army—and a young nation—new reason to believe victory was still possible.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, our host Kyia opens up about a truth she's been sitting with lately: growth doesn't always mean learning something new sometimes it means unlearning the old. From the hustle mentality she built as a competitive runner to the way she's shown up in friendships and marriage, Kyia walks through the seasons of her life that once demanded one version of her and are now asking for something different. She gets honest about what it's looked like to release the "push through anything" mindset as she navigates pregnancy, how friendships shift shape (without ending) as everyone moves into new life stages, and how marriage itself keeps evolving long after the wedding day.

[Rediff] Depuis un an, les réseaux sociaux sont envahis de contenus produits avec ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini et autres assistants d'écriture.Posts LinkedIn, threads, newsletters… L'IA est devenue un copilote éditorial pour de nombreuses marques et créateurs.Le problème, c'est qu'utilisés avec les mêmes prompts génériques, ces outils produisent des textes qui finissent par tous se ressembler. Un véritable « style IA », reconnaissable presque instantanément.Voici 7 indices pour le repérer.1 — L'ouverture façon brochure corporate« Dans un monde en constante évolution… »« À l'ère du digital… »« Dans un contexte de transformation permanente… »Ces introductions sont interchangeables et pourraient lancer n'importe quel sujet.L'écriture humaine part plus souvent d'une anecdote, d'une observation ou d'une situation précise.❌ « Dans un monde en constante évolution, les réseaux sociaux occupent une place centrale… »✅ « Hier, j'ai vu un post LinkedIn généré par IA avec 600 likes… et personne n'avait compris ce qu'il racontait. »La différence : le réel.2 — L'argumentation par la négation« X n'est pas Y, c'est Z. »« Ce n'est pas un outil, c'est un partenaire. »L'IA adore cette construction : contraste, clarification et effet punchline. Mais derrière la formule, il ne reste parfois aucune idée concrète.C'est un peu le PowerPoint du copywriting.3 — Du “on”, mais jamais de “je”Les textes générés sont souvent neutres, lisses et impersonnels.Peu de vécu, de doute, d'erreurs ou de coulisses.Un humain écrira plutôt :« On a testé ça avec un client et ça n'a pas marché. »Ou :« Je pensais que ce format fonctionnerait… et je me suis complètement planté. »Ce sont justement ces aspérités qui créent de l'engagement.4 — Les connecteurs logiques à la chaîne« Cependant… »« En outre… »« Par conséquent… »L'IA cherche constamment à prouver que son raisonnement est structuré. Résultat : des textes parfois trop académiques pour les réseaux sociaux.Un bon test : supprimez les connecteurs. Si le texte reste compréhensible, ils ne servaient probablement à rien.5 — Les mots passe-partoutEssentiel. Crucial. Dynamique. Levier. Transformation. Paysage.Ces mots sonnent sérieux, mais restent souvent très flous.Ils permettent de parler de marketing, de RH, de SaaS ou de développement personnel sans presque rien modifier.Si votre texte peut vendre aussi bien une assurance, un logiciel B2B ou un programme de méditation, il sent probablement un peu l'IA.6 — L'auto-récap' inutile« En résumé… »« Pour conclure… »« Comme nous venons de le voir… »Les modèles reproduisent les structures scolaires et SEO : introduction, développement, conclusion qui résume tout.Mais sur les réseaux, une punchline, une question ou une idée qui ouvre la discussion fonctionne souvent mieux qu'un résumé final.7 — Les questions rhétoriques en série« Vous vous demandez comment… ? »« Alors, comment faire concrètement ? »« La vraie question est… »Utilisées ponctuellement, elles relancent l'attention. Mais lorsque chaque partie commence par une question, le procédé devient prévisible.C'est souvent le résultat d'un prompt du type : « Écris un article engageant. »Le paradoxe, c'est que les IA sont devenues très bonnes pour écrire correctement.Mais elles écrivent parfois trop correctement.Pas d'aspérités. Pas de maladresses. Pas de vécu.Et c'est précisément ce qui les trahit.L'IA reste un excellent outil d'aide à l'écriture, à condition de ne pas lui laisser le volant : l'IA pour structurer, l'humain pour raconter.Parce que sur les réseaux sociaux, ce qui fonctionne encore le mieux, c'est l'expérience réelle.

This story includes discussion of suicide.Back in 2021, TikTok tweaked its algorithm in an effort to address dangerous filter bubbles — a sort of algorithmic spiral of recommendations for high-risk content like extreme dieting or self-harm. But internal company documents obtained by Bloomberg Businessweek show 10% of U.S. users — 15 million Americans — were purposely excluded from this safety update. This was part of user testing to validate the new feature and track whether it reduced engagement with the famously sticky platform.One of those users was then-16-year-old Chase Nasca, who subsequently died by suicide. Olivia Carville, Bloomberg Businessweek investigative reporter, has been on the story.

The Jets' endless quarterback search takes another frustrating turn as Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber wonder whether Carson Beck could become the latest passer New York regrets missing.

Nile Ranger joins us for the first episode back, and this one goes deep. From gold teeth at 16 to being sacked by three different clubs, robbing phones as a teenager to two spells in prison, Nile holds absolutely nothing back about the chaos of his career at Newcastle, Southampton, Swindon and beyond. The Andros Townsend bust-up in Ukraine, the Range Rover prank, the rape charge that derailed his career and the acquittal that followed it's all in here. Recorded before the news of Kevin Keegan's passing, Nile shares a story from his early days as a raw, star-struck young Newcastle player, including the time he called "the Gaffa" by his first name to his face. It's a small moment, but it says a lot about the kind of man Keegan was.

In this episode of the Guns Podcast, hosts Brent Wheat and Roy Huntington break down the essential, often-overlooked skills that make a great shooter. They argue that while modern gun culture is hyper-focused on gear and high-speed tactics, the real foundation of defensive and competitive shooting lies in patience, understanding the fundamentals and cultivating true situational awareness. Listen in as they discuss why the "glamour" of tactical YouTube videos can lead to dangerous habits, the critical importance of being honest with yourself about your own limitations, and why mastering the basics is the only way to perform under pressure. Whether you're a new gun owner or a seasoned pro, this episode provides a necessary reality check on what it truly means to carry and use a firearm responsibly. Key Takeaways ·         The most important part of shooting is often not the physical act of pressing the trigger. ·         Patience is a critical, undervalued skill that is essential for both accuracy and safety. ·         Fundamentals are the foundation for all advanced skills; without them, advanced techniques are dangerous. ·         The prevalence of 'tactical' social media content often misleads people into practicing unrealistic, high-speed techniques. ·         Effective defensive shooting requires deep mental preparation, including understanding your own limitations and maintaining constant situational awareness. ·         Being prepared is a holistic process that includes your gear, your mindset, your physical fitness and your understanding of the law. ·         Reverting to basics under pressure is the reality of any high-stress situation, not performing complex Hollywood-style maneuvers. -- The GunsPodcastUS is presented by Holosun.

Pastor Weston closes our 1-2-3 series in the book of 3 John, and how this letter from John is all about how our love is supposed to be an outpouring of the love that Christ demonstrated for us. Understanding our foundational concept has carried us through this series with the right understanding, that walking with Jesus means letting him lead. He needs to lead in all the areas of our lives and how we love others is one of those core places we need to let him lead us in. As we walk with Jesus, he leads us in showing love through generosity. Generosity is often associated with finances, but it also implicates our time and other resources as well! Ultimately, Pastor Weston points out how loving others is crucial to knowing Jesus. - Key Verses // 3 John, Matthew 25:31-46 - For Sermon Notes, the Connect Card, and our other online resources: https://linktr.ee/Celebrationchurchlive

The rapid growth of artificial intelligence is creating enormous demand for advanced memory chips. As chip manufacturers move more of their resources toward High Bandwidth Memory, or HBM, the supply of traditional RAM and flash memory is being squeezed. In this episode, Skip Montreux and Samantha Vega examine the global memory shortage that has been dubbed “RAMageddon” and explain why it is increasing the cost of laptops, smartphones, cars, medical equipment, and many other products. Skip begins by explaining the three main types of memory involved in the current shortage. RAM allows computers and other devices to operate software, while flash memory stores data after a device has been turned off. High Bandwidth Memory, or HBM, is a faster and more powerful form of memory that is essential for running artificial intelligence systems and large language models. Skip and Samantha then look at why HBM production is reducing the supply of traditional memory. Producing one wafer of HBM can use the same manufacturing resources as three wafers of standard RAM. As demand for AI infrastructure increases, memory manufacturers are therefore moving more of their production capacity toward HBM. They also discuss the role of major technology companies such as Amazon Web Services, Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, and Oracle. These companies are investing heavily in data centers, which require large amounts of HBM. This demand has encouraged manufacturers to prioritize the AI market over the consumer electronics market. The episode also examines Micron's decision to close its Crucial consumer memory brand and redirect resources toward HBM production. Next, Skip explains how HBM has disrupted the traditional boom-and-bust cycle of the memory chip industry. In the past, higher prices encouraged manufacturers to expand production. Once the new production capacity became available, supply increased and prices fell. However, strong and continuing demand from the AI industry has changed this familiar pattern. Finally, Skip and Samantha examine the consequences for businesses and consumers. Contract prices for RAM increased by between 90 and 95 percent, while flash memory prices rose by 75 percent. Delivery lead times have also extended beyond 58 weeks, and some manufacturers must pay for their orders in advance. These pressures are raising the cost of any product that requires computer memory. This episode helps listeners understand the global memory chip market while building practical Business English skills. In this episode, you will learn: What RAM, flash memory, and High Bandwidth Memory are. Why HBM is essential for artificial intelligence and data centers. How producing HBM reduces the manufacturing capacity available for standard RAM. How AI demand has disrupted the traditional boom-and-bust cycle of the memory industry. Why RAM and flash memory prices are increasing. How longer delivery times and advance-payment requirements affect manufacturers. Do you like what you hear?

This week, Seth Paridon and Jon Parshall welcome back their good buddy author and historian Dave Holland to the show to talk about Dave's new book. In his second book, Dave takes on the underappreciated and largely misunderstood role of the United States Army on Guadalcanal. For years, the narrative history of Guadalcanal always states that the United States Marines were the only ones ashore, and fought and won the battle single-handedly. That could not be farther from the truth. Coming ashore in October 1942, staying through the hellish days of that month into November, and taking over after the departure of the first marine division in December, The United States Army pushed the Japanese to the very edge of the island in the final offensives ashore. In his book, Dave with his customary intricate detail, examines the personalities, the events, the successes, and the failures of the army ashore on Guadalcanal. Make sure you tune in to this sneak peek of Dave's exciting new book due out this October 2026. #wwiihistory #ww2 #usnavy #usa #usarmy #medalofhonor #enterprise #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #cv6 #midway #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #worldwar2 #usnavy #usnavyseals #usmc #usmarines #saipan #usa #usarmy #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #battleship #battleships #ussenterprise #aircraftcarriers #museum #essex #halsey #taskforce38 #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #usnavy #usa #usarmy #medalofhonor #enterprise #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #cv6 #midway #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #worldwar2 #usnavy #usnavyseals #usmc #usmarines #saipan #usa #usarmy #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #battleship #battleships #ussenterprise #aircraftcarriers #museum #hollywood #movie #movies #books #mastersoftheair #8thairforce #mightyeighth #100thbombgroup #bloodyhundredth #b17 #boeing #airforce wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #usnavy #usa #usarmy #medalofhonor #enterprise #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #cv6 #midway #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #worldwar2 #usnavy #usnavyseals #usmc #usmarines #saipan #usa #usarmy #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #battleship #battleships #ussenterprise #aircraftcarriers #museum #hollywood #movie #movies #books #oldbreed #1stMarineDivision #thepacific #Peleliu #army #marines #marinecorps #worldwar2 #worldwar #worldwarii #leytegulf #battleofleytegulf #rodserling #twilightzone #liberation #blacksheep #power #prisoner #prisonerofwar #typhoon #hurricane #weather #iwojima#bullhalsey #ace #p47 #p38 #fighter #fighterpilot #b29 #strategicstudying #tokyo #boeing #incendiary #usa #franklin #okinawa #yamato #kamikaze #Q&A #questions #questionsandanswers #history #jaws #atomicbomb #nuclear #nationalarchives #nara #johnford #hollywood #fdr #president #roosevelt #doolittle #doolittleraid #pearlharborattack #salvaged #medalofhonor #tarawa #malayalam #singapore #guadalcanal #china #burma #oil #marinecorps

Every day, ordinary people unknowingly walk right past clear human trafficking signs in their own neighborhoods and on their kids' smartphones. Over 50 million people worldwide are trapped in modern slavery, with vulnerable runaways targeted in local hotels and teenagers groomed by digital predators using AI.    In this episode, Nick Thompson sits down with Laura Parker, CEO of The Exodus Road, to expose the warning human trafficking signs hiding in local neighborhoods and on children's social media.   Despite explosive headlines about elite networks in the Epstein files, the mainstream media fails to teach everyday citizens how the infrastructure of this multi-billion-dollar criminal enterprise actually operates.    You are conditioned to believe trafficking only looks like dramatic kidnappings by strangers, but the terrifying reality is a systematic manipulation of trust.    Laura Parker exposes real human trafficking stories of survivors, unmasks online grooming tactics, and uncovers the exact child exploitation prevention strategies you need to protect your community.   In this episode, you will learn: ✅ Exactly what human trafficking signs to watch out for in hotels, airports, and your everyday life.  ✅ How "Romeo pimps" and digital predators use psychological manipulation and false promises to groom victims.  ✅ Why law enforcement is shifting toward digital forensics instead of traumatizing survivor testimony for sex trafficking rescue operations.  ✅ The reality of online child grooming tactics exposed and how AI is fueling sextortion schemes through social media apps.  ✅ Inspiring human trafficking stories of survivors who have reclaimed their lives from modern slavery.  ✅ Actionable child exploitation prevention steps you can take to make an impact for World Day Against Trafficking in Persons 2026. Our Guest  Laura Parker is the CEO and co-founder of The Exodus Road, a global anti-human trafficking organization that has conducted operations in 20+ countries and helped free over 6,300 survivors. She's a speaker, author, and advocate for human-centered leadership — drawing on 15 years of frontline experience, including raising three kids overseas while her husband worked undercover in anti-trafficking operations. Laura speaks on healthy leadership culture, sustainable performance, human trafficking awareness, and how to keep kids safe online. Our Mission Eyes Wide Open is a space for honest communication.
