Laikraščio „The Irish Times” tyrimas parodė, kad Airijoje veikianti aliuminio apdirbimo gamykla didžiąją dalį savo produkcijos tiekė Rusijos karo pramonei, o ne Europos Sąjungos šalims. Tuo metu Airijos vyriausybė priešinasi sankcijoms, kuriomis būtų uždraustas aliuminio oksido eksportas į Rusiją. Esą, tai labiau pakenktų Europai, o ne Rusijai.Seimo narys Saulius Čaplinskas siūlo visiškai uždrausti vienkartines elektronines cigaretes. Kelis kartus šis siūlymas jau buvo įtrauktas į Seimo posėdžių darbotvarkę, tačiau vėliau išbrauktas. Kodėl nerandama sutarimo dėl šio draudimo?Alpinistas Saulius Damulevičius, praėjusią savaitę bandęs įkopti į aukščiausią pasaulio viršukalnę Everestą be šerpų palydos ir papildomo deguonies, apsisuko iki kalno viršūnės likus 400 metrų ir iš esmės tada pradėjo kovą už gyvybę.Medikai ir gydymo įstaigos kritikuoja Sveikatos apsaugos ministerijos siūlymus griežtinti baudas už žalą Privalomojo sveikatos draudimo fondo biudžetui. Kaip medikai ir gydymo įstaigos gali tokią žalą sukelti ir kaip tokia tvarka atsilieptų pacientams?Daugėja atvejų, kai šiuolaikinės literatūros kūriniai generuojami dirbtinio intelekto. Ar prasidėjo naujas kovos už literatūros žmogiškumą etapas?Ved. Liuda Kudinova

The Dark Art of Justice and Revenge: Unraveling a Twisted Tale of Murder and GuiltIn this episode, we delve into a riveting narrative that explores themes of justice, revenge, guilt, and the supernatural. Through a chilling murder story, the discussion reveals how internal guilt and external perceptions intertwine and how the mind can distort reality — even to the point of seeing ghosts that aren't there. This story underscores the psychological complexity behind criminal acts and the human tendency to find or create justice.Most stories about murder echo the same tired cautionary tales — but this episode turns the traditional narrative upside down. Dive into a chilling, psychological exploration of guilt, revenge, and the ghosts we carry inside us, all woven into a haunting courtroom drama that blurs reality and hallucination. You're about to see how a seemingly straightforward case of murder unravels into a labyrinth of deceit, remorse, and supernatural whispers that challenge what we believe about truth and justice.In this episode, you'll discover how guilt manifests as ghostly apparitions that haunt even the living, blurring the line between mental affliction and supernatural phenomena. We break down the intense courtroom exchanges, revealing the subtle cues that expose the killer's inner torment. You'll learn how emotions like jealousy, revenge, and regret can become lethal, especially when intertwined with mental strain and perceived justice.We also explore the pivotal role of perception — how guilt can distort reality, making ghosts of our past actions seem like physical specters. The story warns that ignoring these internal hauntings may lead to devastating consequences, but recognizing them offers the potential for true redemption or self-destruction. This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in crime psychology, the power of conscience, or the darker corners of the human mind.If you're captivated by stories where the mind and the supernatural collide, or if you want to understand the psychological grip of guilt that can turn a person into their own worst enemy, this episode is for you. Demystify the unseen forces that govern our subconscious and learn why sometimes the scariest ghosts are the ones we carry inside.

Why do some coaches effortlessly enroll clients while more qualified ones struggle? This episode breaks down the Precision Influence Model—revealing how persuasive communication, not credentials, drives growth. By mastering what to say, how to say it, and how to deliver it with conviction, coaches can cut through noise, shift beliefs, and inspire action—much like powerful leaders throughout history, from cult figures to icons like Martin Luther King Jr.—but used ethically to serve and transform clients.   "Authenticity without influence is just noise in a crowded market."   What You'll Take Away: Influence beats credentials – People don't enroll because you're the most experienced; they enroll because your communication makes them feel understood and confident you can help them move forward. Messaging matters most – When you clearly articulate your ideal client's pain, desires, and limiting beliefs better than they can themselves, you create instant trust and belief shifts. Written words sell 24/7 – Your copy, content, and headlines act like a nonstop salesperson, converting strangers into leads and clients even when you're offline. Delivery builds trust – The same words can fail or succeed depending on how they're spoken; confidence, tonality, and presence determine whether people believe you. Authenticity needs strategy – Being authentic is expected, but without intentional influence, your message gets lost in the noise instead of reaching the people who need it most.   Connect with Jason Meland: Email: jason@goliveonlinemastermind.com Website: https://www.growmyvisibility.com/ Instagram: @coachjasonmeland Facebook: Jason Meland - In Demand Coach LinkedIn: Jason Meland

Episode 91 - Murdock and Marvel: 2017 It was a big year for comics in theaters, but local comic shops did not do nearly as well, with sales diving substantially from 2016.

Daredevil's protégé Blindspot is invited to a warehouse where a giant blood mural has been painted. He phones Daredevil and the pair investigate while the owner of the warehouse starts charging admission so people can see the twisted art.   When the mural gets desecrated by an address, the pair find another equally horrifying art exhibit made with inhumans. Daredevil has a brief interaction with Muse on the building's rooftop before Muse escapes. While Daredevil tries to get help from Medusa and the inhumans, Blindspot goes after Muse and finds his hideout and several hostages he plans to use in his next art piece. Blindspot frees the hostages and acts as a decoy to Muse so they can escape. Blindspot though is captured by Muse and before Daredevil can save him, Muse gouges his eyes out.   Ultimately Daredevil defeats Muse and gets Blindspot to a hospital, but the damage is done. Matt Murdock is left feeling very guilty he let his student be hurt.  This leads to a short 2 book story arch called the Seventh Day where Matt enters a church for the first time in a while and speaks with Father Jordan. The story is light on action but makes up for it with real character development will be our Spotlight story of the week.   Next, Matt Murdock returns to Father Jordan and the confessional booth and finally answers the question we've had all series – “How was Matt able to make everyone forget he is Daredevil?” as he recounts his final days in San Francsico in a story called Purple.    Not surprising it has to do with Killgrave and his purple children. Killgrave used a guard in prison to escape and upon escaping sought his children to elevate his power beyond it's already dangerous level. Two of the children show up a Mat Murdock's house just ahead of a hoard of crazed people sent by Killgrave to capture them. Matt locks them and Kirsten in a panic room and then incapacitates the mob.   Daredevil goes after Killgrave and upon finding him, the rest of the kidnapped children and his power-boosting machine, Daredevil can't keep from falling under the purple man's influence.  Killgrave toys with him asking asks Daredevil what exactly the worst possible thing he could do is. Daredevil suggests the Purple Man to have everybody, heroes, villains and civilians, wreak havoc upon the streets. When asked what he would do in this scenario, Daredevil simply says "nothing".  This outrages Killgrave which is apparently enough for Daredevil to break free of control and takedown Killgrave. As a thank you for saving them, the Purple kids decide to help Daredevil by using the device and making everyone in the world forget that Matt Murdock and Daredevil are one in the same. Daredevil returns home where Kirsten doesn't realize Daredevil and Matt are the same so he leaves and decided to use this free start to go back to New York and start over.  This leads us into the next story – Supreme. In it we see Matt Murdock and Daredevil team up take the fight against criminals to the courtroom. Daredevil, with the help of Luke Cage and Echo – stop the Munition Militia from blowing up city hall but are only manage to capture Simon “Slug” Slugansky in the process. It's then ADA Murdock puts his idea into motion – have Daredevil testify against Slugansky in court – without revealing his secret identity.   The defense team tries to discredit the red suit wearing Daredevil saying “anyone can wear a suit”. Daredevil proves he is the real deal when the Milita charge into the courtroom attempting to free they cohort. When the dust settles, Daredevil is able to give testimony and the District Attorney's office wins the now high-profile case.   Seeing how the decision could affect his business interests, Kingpin launches a two-part attack on Matt Murdock to see the case go away is it gets appealed to higher and higher courts. He hires a former lead attorney for Tony Stark called just “Legal” to represent Slugansky in court and hires Tombstone to take out Murdock when not in court.   Legal is able to get the verdict overturned in the New York Supreme Court – which angers D.A. Hochberg (Matt's boss) saying he needs to stop using New York resources. That causes Matt to reach out to Foggy for help – which is interrupted by a Tombstone attack. Matt uses his Daredevil skills to beat him and escape with Foggy and Foggy agrees to help. Fast forward 2 weeks and the case is being heard by the Supreme Court.  To Foggy's surprise, Matt confesses that he lost the previous appeals case on purpose. He says he needed it to come before the Supremes in order for the ruling to have true power. And while waiting to for the case to be called, Matt gets confirmation Kingpin was the one who hired Legal. While arguing before the Justices, Murdock imagines his exchange with them as a physical battle, and feels like he's getting beat up badly. In his rebuttal to Legal's opening statement he stresses the voluntary good that all citizens are obliged to do.   Ten days later, the court rules in Matt's favor, potentially changing the entire landscape of law enforcement. Matt calls Foggy and tries to explain why he needs to fight criminals both in the courtroom and in the streets at once. He reverts to his classic red costume. Meanwhile, In NYC, and enraged Kingpin punches out a window, and tells Wesley to turn to Plan C.  The year ends with a 3-book story called “Land of the Blind”. Matt learns Samuel Chung (aka Blindspot) is in China, so he travels there looking for him. Shortly after arriving, he's captured by Blindspot and put in a hole for what seems like several months. We learn he has gotten his eyesight back thanks to a deal his mother made with the Beast and the Hand. Sam wants to trade Daredevil's life for the life of his mother – which he does. Though he has a change of heart during their escape and the pair return and help Daredevil escape. Upon returning to NYC, Daredevil learns Wilson Fisk has been elected Mayor of New York.  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil v5 Issues 15 and 16 from March 2017 “The Seventh Day”  Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway It was a big year for women in comics.

Episode 90 - Murdock and Marvel: 2016 TBD The Year in Comics  Comics in Other Media Comic Sales Top Comics News Notable Passings Marvel Eisner Awards The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil v5 #1-12, Daredevil/Punisher: Seventh Circle #1-3, True Believers: Daredevil – Practice to Deceive #1, Daredevil Annual #1, Secret Wars Too #1, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. #5, Mockingbird #5, Accused #1, Captain America: Steve Rogers #5, Civil War II #5  Writer: Charles Soule (#1-12)  Pencils: Ron Garney (#1-3, #5, #10-12), Garney and Goran Sudzuka (#4), Matteo Buffagni (#6-7), Sudzuka (#8-9)  Inks: Ron Garney (#1-3, #5, #10-12), Garney and Goran Sudzuka (#4), Matteo Buffagni (#6-7), Sudzuka (#8-9)  The year kicks off with a whole new status quo. Matt's back in New York, he's somehow regained his secret identity—don't ask him how, he's very cagey about it—and he's traded the bright red suit for a slicker, darker black one. On top of that, he's now working as a prosecutor for the DA's office. So Daredevil by night, ADA by day… because nothing says “healthy work-life balance” like doubling down on stress.  And for reasons only Matt understands, he decides this is the perfect time to take on a protégé. Enter Blindspot—a kid genius with an invisibility suit, an undocumented immigrant background, and all the ambition (and naïveté) Matt had at his age. Matt trains him, pushes him, and absolutely refuses to admit to anyone that he might be in way over his head as a mentor.  The first big arc is the Tenfingers saga, centered around a cult leader in Chinatown who—yes—literally has ten fingers on each hand. He's stolen power from The Hand, his followers think he's some kind of holy savior, and Blindspot's mother is deep in the cult, which drags the kid into the conflict whether he wants it or not. The whole thing spirals into a massive church showdown that ends with The Hand (and then a giant beast on behalf of the hand) showing up to wipe Tenfingers off the map. Blindspot is injured, but he gets a harsh lesson in what Daredevil's world really looks like.  Following that we get a two-issue story “Elektric Connections” with the return of Elektra. First she shows up in Matt's courtroom during trial, then asks to meet Daredevil. When she does, she attacks him. Blindspot jumps in to try to save Daredevil, but Elektra breaks his arm. Elektra's convinced she has a daughter who's gone missing and that Daredevil is involved. Turns out it was a trick and after finally convincing her the “evidence” she was given wasn't real, she approaches the man who gave it to her. He breaks the planted memories with the phrase “The tangled web we weave!”. Elektra is relieved she won't be corrupting a child but very angry at the person who deceived her.   Then we get the “Blind Man's Bluff” story arc that feature's a team up with Spider-Man. Matt is posing as a Frenchman, playing Texas Hold 'em in a tournament and intends to rob someone at a Casino in Macau, which is as fun a story as it sounds.

What if the fastest path to clarity isn't a plan, but a choice about who you'll be in the next moment?If you're outwardly “successful” yet feel stuck, drained by uncertainty, or trapped in the “someday I'll be happy” loop, this conversation with strategist and author Hussein Hallak reframes mastery as a living practice: a dance between being and doing, where you define success on your terms and let your thoughts, words, and actions flow from that choice.Learn a practical way to embrace uncertainty, so it fuels momentum instead of anxiety.Discover the powerful difference between decisions (data-driven) and choices (identity-driven) to end paralysis and act with integrity.Replace borrowed definitions of success with your own, aligning mindset, skill set, and tool set to create meaning now, not “someday.”Press play to learn how to make identity-aligned choices today and turn uncertainty into a catalyst for a happier, more intentional life.˚KEY POINTS AND TIMESTAMPS:01:54 - Introducing Hussein Hallak and his background03:15 - The defining moment that shaped his view of life mastery04:48 - What life mastery means and the dance between being and doing09:26 - Why life mastery is a “dark art”12:34 - Embracing uncertainty and the mindset of a realistic dreamer18:34 - Compassion, experimentation, and the power of choice22:25 - The difference between choice and decision26:08 - The “someday symptom” and redefining success29:00 - Hussein's message to his younger self and final reflections34:37 - Closing thoughts and parting message˚MEMORABLE QUOTE:"Go all out, like be more yourself than you've ever been.

Life is about engaging with the choices you can make right now, and embracing uncertainty with the courage to choose again and again.In this episode of Real Things Living, host Brigitte Cutshall speaks with entrepreneur and author, Hussein Hallak, about his book "The Dark Art of Life Mastery" and his mission to turn lived experience into legacy. They explore why making choices—big or small—matters more than getting them “right,” how curiosity and resilience shape our growth, and why human connection will always outweigh technology's advances. This conversation is a reminder that the real art of life is not about control, but about choosing fully in the present moment—again and again.3 Takeaways:(1) Choice is a skill—the more often you practice making decisions, the more confident and resilient you become.(2) Small choices matter—you're not stuck; if something isn't working, you can make a different choice in the moment.(3) Human stories connect us—technology can assist, but it can't replace the meaning, empathy, and joy we create through lived experience.Check out Hussein's book "The Dark Art of Life Mastery" and connect with him at https://husseinhallak.comSubscribe to Real Things Living for more conversations that celebrate resilience, creativity, and the power of choice.

What if the secret to mastering life isn't in doing more—but in choosing differently? In this raw, soul-stirring interview, Hussein Hallak, entrepreneur, author of The Dark Art of Mastery, and startup mentor reveals how he rose from poverty in Syria to building 22 companies, leading top incubators in Canada, and finding true joy in a world obsessed with hustle.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Aanya sits down with Hussein Hallak, author of The Dark Art of Life Mastery, to unpack what it really means to live with clarity, courage, and authenticity. From his journey as a Syrian-born Canadian navigating war, migration, and reinvention, Hussein shares practical insights on mindfulness as a lived practice, not a buzzword. Together, they explore why clarity must start within, how discomfort signals growth, and why authenticity is about becoming yourself rather than simply being yourself. This conversation challenges you to stop waiting for permission and begin shaping life on your own terms—messy, imperfect, and fully alive. About the Guest   Hussein Hallak is a Syrian-born Canadian entrepreneur, writer, and mentor who has spent over two decades helping people make sense of chaos—whether in business, art, or everyday life. His book The Dark Art of Life Mastery offers a raw, honest perspective on stripping away illusions, reclaiming agency, and choosing courage over comfort. Key Takeaways   Clarity starts inward: being clear on values, purpose, and choices is more powerful than clarity about external events. Daily practice: asking “What matters most today?” can transform decision-making and create alignment. Growth requires discomfort: stepping outside comfort zones is where expansion and joy happen. Risk is part of life: the key is managing risks through small, intentional steps rather than avoiding them altogether. Authenticity isn't “being yourself” but choosing who you want to be in each moment, based on your principles. Consistency matters in values and principles, not in external appearances or rigid routines. Courageous living means acting even with fear present, trusting that clarity and direction emerge through action.

THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

Fact: Cast iron is having a moment. And that's true even while the cast-iron skillet has never lost its standing as one of the most iconic of culinary tools. So today, Eli talks with Field Company co-founder, Stephen Muscarella, about how a vintage pan sparked a journey to reimagine cast iron from the ground up. They get into what makes cast iron so special — and so misunderstood; the small design choices that lead to better cooking; and what, exactly, Field is doing to bring back the use of cast iron in modern cooking.We Want to Hear from You!Have a topic, craft category, or craft company you'd like to see us cover?

Send us a textIn this profoundly insightful episode of the Self-Reflection Podcast, Lira sits down with serial entrepreneur, author, and venture coach Hussein Hallak, who shares his incredible journey from a challenging upbringing in Damascus, Syria, to building over 20 ventures and mentoring thousands. Hussein recounts how a lack of resources and a desire to support his family propelled him into entrepreneurship, forcing him to learn by trial and error in a time before the internet and business books were accessible. He reveals how the simple mantra of "taking action is better than doing nothing" became the cornerstone of his success, a lesson that was validated years later by one of the world's top incubators.Diving deep into the philosophy behind his book, "The Dark Art of Life Mastery," Hussein challenges the modern obsession with the mere appearance of success. He argues that true life mastery isn't found in material wealth or accolades but in one simple, profound word: joy. The conversation unpacks how to cultivate this inner joy, not as a fleeting feeling, but as a direct result of living a life of conscious choice. Hussein provides a powerful framework for understanding that even when faced with difficult circumstances, the ability to choose your response and your present reality is the ultimate source of personal power and contentment.This episode is a masterclass in navigating life's inherent uncertainty. Hussein shares practical, actionable steps for overcoming procrastination, dealing with the past, and shifting from a survival mindset to one of intentional action. He also speaks beautifully about the role of partnership, sharing how his 30-year relationship with his wife has been built on mutual accountability and demanding the best from one another. This is a timely and necessary conversation that offers a powerful antidote to the chaos of the modern world, reminding us that by taking ownership of our choices, we can find peace and purpose, no matter the storm.Support the showCall to Action: Engage with the Self-Reflection Podcast community!
