Japonská Ósaka hostí po 55 letech znovu světovou výstavu EXPO. Svou kulturu a průmysl na ní prezentují desítky zemí včetně Česka. „Máme velmi hezký pavilon, který je na prestižním místě, takže ho nikdo nepřehlédne,“ vyzdvihuje v Interview Plus český velvyslanec v Japonsku Martin Klučar. „Je to architektonicky, ale taky konstrukčně velmi zdařilá budova. Poprvé je v Japonsku představována dřevostavba.“

Motivation may spark change, but it's small, consistent actions that keep the fire burning, especially when you're just not feeling it. In this episode, I talk about what to do when you're feeling completely unmotivated to stick with healthy habits. I dive into the truth that motivation is fleeting and often unreliable, and instead, I share practical strategies to keep moving forward even when you don't feel like it. I also explore common reasons we lose motivation like overwhelm, burnout, boredom, and perfectionism and offer five actionable tips: shrink the task, pair it with something enjoyable (habit stacking), reconnect with your "why," use the two-minute rule, and celebrate small wins. I remind you and myself—that consistency, not perfection, is what leads to lasting change. If you've ever struggled to stay on track with your healthy habits, this episode is your practical guide to getting unstuck—tune in now and take the first small step!   Episode Highlights: The myth of constant motivation Common reasons for feeling unmotivated (overwhelm, burnout, perfectionism, etc.) Five practical strategies to take action when motivation is low The power of habit stacking and the two-minute rule Reconnecting with your "why" to stay grounded Celebrating small wins to build long-term momentum Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

Oh, Donald… please don't embarrass us in front of the other world leaders. With the NATO Summit underway, all eyes are on Trump, and not for the right reasons. From bizarre past performances to the NATO chief now referencing Trump being called “daddy,” the international stage is already bracing for chaos. Allies are nervous. Diplomats are sweating. And Americans? Mostly cringing. Join Don Lemon as we break down how Trump continues to be a walking diplomatic incident, what this means for global relations, and why “world leader” might just be the biggest stretch in his résumé.

Trotz Feuerpause in Nahost sieht Diplomat Andreas Reinicke viele Hindernisse für den Frieden. Die Akzeptanz Israels in der Region habe nach den Angriffen auf Iran Schaden genommen. Auch das Vertrauen in die USA als Verhandlungspartner sei geschwächt. Heinlein, Stefan www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

If you're applying as a STEM major or looking at selective colleges, there's no question that you should consider taking advanced or accelerated math courses at the secondary level. The question instead revolves around which course to take. Amy and Mike invited researcher Adam Tyner to review whether taking calculus in high school is absolutely necessary. What are five things you will learn in this episode? What are the typical pathways for showing math rigor in high school? Does the choice between calculus or statistics matter? In what cases would one of these choices be more advantageous to an applicant? Do students who have taken calculus in high school outperform their peers? Are their equity issues wrapped up in this decision? MEET OUR GUEST Adam Tyner is the national research director of research at the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, where he helps develop and manage Fordham's research projects. Prior to joining Fordham, he served as senior education analyst at Hanover Research, where he executed data analysis projects and worked with school districts and other education stakeholders to design custom studies.  Adam has also spent several years leading classrooms, teaching English as a second language in both China and California and teaching courses at the University of California, San Diego. His work has appeared and been cited in national and international media such as The Economist, The New York Times, Forbes, Education Week, Education Next, and The Diplomat, as well as in numerous local outlets. Adam holds a Ph.D. in political science from the University of California, San Diego, where he completed his doctoral dissertation on the integration of rural-to-urban migrant workers in China's cities. He also holds a bachelor of arts in international studies from the University of Oklahoma. Adam first appeared on the podcast in episode 140 to discuss Social Studies Instruction and Reading Comprehension and in episode 295 to discuss Would Eliminating Tests Make Education More Equitable.

AP correspondent Karen Chammas reports on talks between European foreign ministers and Iran's foreign minister.

Chris Horton is a freelance journalist who has been based in Taiwan since 2015, before many Western publications had any dedicated presence on the island. Over the last decade, he has contributed to the New York Times, Bloomberg, The Atlantic, and numerous other publications regarding Taiwan-related topics. In this episode of the New Books Network, we chat with Chris about his debut book, Ghost Nation: The Story of Taiwan and Its Struggle for Survival (Pan Macmillan, 2025). Ghost Nation weaves together figures and events from across Taiwan's present and history to provide an approachable narrative about how Taiwan came to be the vibrant island nation it is today, and the challenges that it faces amidst an increasingly assertive China. Tune in as we chat with Chris about everything from stinky tofu, Chris' go-to rechao stir-fry restaurant in Taipei (Eight Immortals Grill), how one of Taiwan's former Presidents tried to “Make Taiwan China Again” (and sparked a protest movement in the process), and why democratic countries ought to stand in solidarity with the “Ghost Nation” of Taiwan. Ghost Nation will be released on July 17, 2025, and is available for pre-order today.  Anthony Kao is a writer who intersects international affairs and cultural criticism.

Sen. Dan Blue, D-Wake, is the only lawmaker who's been in office since the early 1980s, but the former House speaker is no longer serving as Senate minority leader after his fellow Democrats backed Sen.
