A frase, que soa como prova de lucidez, revela um mecanismo mais profundo. Depois de sucessivas frustrações, aprendemos a não esperar, a não confiar e, por fim, a não agir. Partindo do futebol, Luciano Pires investiga como a impotência aprendida se espalha pela vida pública, alimenta a procura por salvadores e enfraquece a responsabilidade individual. A saída não está em fabricar otimismo, mas em reconstruir uma esperança adulta, sustentada por instituições que funcionem e por resultados que devolvam sentido ao esforço. Host: Luciano Pires - @lucianopires – lucianopires.com.br Takeaways • A descrença pode parecer uma proteção contra a frustração, mas se torna perigosa quando nos convence de que nenhum esforço produzirá resultado. • A busca recorrente por salvadores revela uma sociedade que transfere responsabilidades e abandona o jogo quando seus heróis fracassam. • A esperança coletiva não nasce de discursos, mas de experiências concretas que comprovem a relação entre participação, responsabilidade e mudança. Capítulos A derrota que ninguém estranhouA inteligência aparente do “eu já sabia”Como se aprende a desistirQuarenta anos de esperanças frustradasA procura por novos salvadoresO espaço deixado por quem cruza os braçosA esperança precisa de provasQuem entra derrotado já começou a perder Links relevantes • Mundo Café Brasil: https://mundocafebrasil.com• Livraria Café Brasil: https://livrariacafebrasil.com.brSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Trump has threatened to inflict major military punishment against Yemen's Houthi rebels following their strikes on oil tankers in the Red Sea. Oil prices hit $100 a barrel for the first time since May as fears grow over global energy supplies. We speak to the UN's Yemen envoy Hans Grundberg who is concerned about the prospect of escalation in Yemen. Also in the programme; The BBC visits Iran school where a strike killed 120 children as questions remain whether the US military is responsible; and the European Union has fined the US tech titan Google one-billion-dollars for flouting anti- trust regulations.(Picture: A person walks past a display of Houthi-made mock missiles and drones at a square in Sana'a, Yemen, 23 July 2026.

The Iran-backed Houthi rebels claim to have struck two oil tankers in the Red Sea, potentially opening a new front in the US-Iran war. President Donald Trump adds a new condition to an already controversial nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia. Outraged protesters take to the streets in Madison, Wisconsin after a deadly police shooting. The EU has hit Google with a billion-dollar fine – we'll tell you why. And rugby gets a drag queen makeover.  Learn more about your ad choices.

The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has fired his army commander-in-chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, in one of the biggest shake-ups of the country's military leadership since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion. General Syrskyi had clashed with the popular defence minister, Mykhailo Fedorov, whose own removal from office last week triggered rare mass protests in Ukraine. Also: France becomes the first country in the EU to ban children under the age of 15 from using social media.

Children who are so obese they're banned from their local gyms. Two and three year olds who are so used to juice and fizzy drinks they find it difficult to drink water. This is the child obesity epidemic hitting Italy. The country is often considered the spiritual home of the fabled mediterranean diet, celebrated as the secret to a long, healthy life. But Italy's children are now the second most overweight in the EU. The reasons for this change in a generation are complex and hotly disputed. Experts are putting it down to a daily diet heavy in pasta, pizza, potatoes, bread and meat proteins. Parents say their teenage children are eating a family dinner then going out to binge on fast food. Others accuse the parents themselves of overindulging their children from an early age. Italy is acting. It recently became one of the first countries in the world to formally recognise obesity as a chronic disease. Twenty five secondary schools in the Campania region of Southern Italy, including Naples, will take part in an ambitious clinical trial to try and get their pupils to eat more healthily in a bid to prevent a looming health crisis. Can Italy turn its child obesity crisis around? And what lessons does its experiment hold for other countries struggling with the same problem?

Gold has been prized throughout history for its value and its beauty, which has also made it attractive to those prepared to exploit this precious metal for their own ends. The European Union recently banned the purchase, import and transfer of gold from Sudan, one of Africa's largest gold producers, saying it had become a key source of financing for the country's civil war. And in other parts of the world where there are gold reserves, there can be similar exploitation. Many artisanal and small-scale miners are vulnerable to organised crime syndicates who find the risks of gold mining lower compared to those of drug trafficking. And illicit gold is much easier to launder into the legal market, because it can be melted down with legitimate sources of gold and smuggled across borders, making its origins much harder to trace. But the challenge for governments trying to enforce the law is how to protect those at the bottom of the chain and provide them with sustainable alternatives to illicit gold mining, whilst clamping down on the criminal groups behind the operation. So, on this week's Inquiry, we're asking ‘Can the illicit gold trade be stopped?'Contributors: Campbell Harvey, professor of finance, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, USA Dr Dan Watson, research associate, International Institute for Strategic Studies, London, UK Bram Ebus, consultant with International Crisis Group, founder and co-director Amazon Underworld, Bogotá, Colombia Louis Maréchal, senior advisor on minerals & extractives, OECD, Paris, France.

Guten Morgen! Die Sommerzeit bringt wichtige personelle Weichenstellungen – national wie international. In Berlin muss die CDU/CSU-Fraktion nach dem Rücktritt von Jens Spahn einen neuen Vorsitzenden wählen. Da Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz amtierende Regierungsmitglieder wie Thorsten Frei, Alexander Dobrindt oder Nina Warken favorisiert, dürfte die Entscheidung eine Kabinettsumbildung auslösen. Für den neuen Fraktionschef wird es von entscheidender Bedeutung sein, die interne Geschlossenheit zu wahren. Zugleich richtet sich der Blick nach London. Merz und Vertreter der EU gratulierten dem neuen britischen Premierminister Andy Burnham. Nun gilt es, auf dem Kensington-Vertrag aufzubauen und die enge Partnerschaft weiter zu festigen. Während Kater Larry gelassen seinen siebten Regierungschef erwartet, müssen die Akteure in beiden Hauptstädten zügig Handlungsfähigkeit beweisen.

Employees of three key State agencies use a computer programme called Passwork to generate and protect their passwords. It's a cybersecurity measure.But what they didn't know, before it was revealed by The Irish Times, is that Passwork, which purports to be EU-based, has extensive links to a Russian company licensed by Russia's security service.The agencies using Passwork are the Office of Public Works, the State Laboratory, which provides chemical testing and scientific advice to Government departments, and the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC), the agency tasked with, among other things, helping consumers stay cyber safe. It is unclear how many other Irish State agencies use Passwork.So what does it mean for State security? Who has access to these passwords? And what does the Russian owner of the Spanish-based company that sold the Passwork programme to the State agencies say? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As negociações entre Washington e Pequim, as vendas de armas para Taiwan, o futuro das alianças americanas na Ásia e a possibilidade de uma quarentena marítima fazem parte de uma disputa que pode mudar o equilíbrio de poder no Indo-Pacífico.Eu mostro ainda por que Taiwan é tão importante para a segurança regional, para a produção mundial de semicondutores e para a credibilidade dos Estados Unidos diante de aliados como Japão, Coreia do Sul, Filipinas e Austrália.Talvez a principal pergunta já não seja quando a China vai invadir Taiwan, mas se Xi Jinping conseguirá alcançar seu objetivo sem precisar disparar um único tiro.Você já conhece o meu aplicativo?

Jake Hildreth, Principal Security Consultant at Semperis and Microsoft MVP, is back on the podcast fresh off a trip to PowerShell Conference Europe, where he and Andrew co-presented a session on securing PowerShell. Jake also gave his own talk on Stepper, his open-source module for building resumable, step-by-step scripts — a tool that's grown considerably since his last appearance on the show. The two dig into what makes PSConf EU such a standout event, the refreshing lack of elitism in the PowerShell community, and the updates Jake's been shipping, including named steps, built-in logging, and secret suppression. The conversation winds into burnout, the importance of actually taking your vacation days, and how the same mindset that drives good automation — knowing when to stop and reset — applies to taking care of yourself. Key Takeaways: Stepper has gotten some meaningful quality-of-life updates since Jake last appeared on the show, including named steps, automatic logging, and the ability to suppress secrets from logs — making it more practical for real-world production scripts. PSConf EU punches above its weight as a conference experience: technically deep but genuinely welcoming at every skill level, with none of the elitism that can creep into security-adjacent events. Your vacation time is a benefit, not a backlog item. Jake makes the case that getting good at separating your work time from your off time isn't a soft skill — it's a sustainability practice. Guest Bio: Jake Hildreth is a Principal Security Consultant at Semperis, a Microsoft MVP in both PowerShell and Identity/Access, and a recovering sysadmin with 25 years of IT under his belt. He's probably best known for building Locksmith, the open-source AD CS auditing and remediation tool, but he's also the creator of Stepper, Deck, BlueTuxedo, and PowerPUG! — a suite of tools designed to make identity security a little less painful for the admins who live in it. When he's not untangling Kerberos or chasing down ADCS misconfigurations, he goes by "horse" in the PowerShell Discords.

Budoucí britský premiér Andy Burnham přebírá rozjednané dohody s Evropskou unií. Jeho předchůdce usiloval o bližší vztahy s EU, sám Burnham ještě loni na podzim řekl, že by chtěl za svého života vidět Británii zpátky v unii. „Z prvních projevů je zřejmé, že se bude věnovat vnitřním britským problémům. K unii ho může přiblížit apel byznysu,“ míní bývalý londýnský zpravodaj Českého rozhlasu Jaromír Marek v pořadu Bruselské chlebíčky.

Nach viel Kritik an seiner Entscheidung für eine Leihmutterschaft in den USA ist Jens Spahn zurückgetreten.

Dr. ⁠Basant Bajpai⁠ CEO of ⁠Compliance MedQRA⁠, a UAE-based consulting company specializing in Quality Assurance, Regulatory Affairs, AI governance and compliance for medical devices, SaMD, AI/ML health technologies and digital health solutions. He holds a PhD in Neuroscience focused on brain monitoring and neurotechnology and has more than 12 years of international experience supporting MedTech and digital health companies across Europe, the Middle East and the United States.He explains why regulatory and quality is still one of the most misunderstood functions in MedTech and why so many innovators treat it as a documentation exercise until it becomes an expensive problem at the worst possible moment. We get into the question every founder asks, how long will this take and what will it cost and why there is genuinely no straight answer without first building a proper regulatory strategy.We also tackle the growing trend of companies choosing the US over EU MDR simply because it looks faster. Basant makes the case that regulatory approval alone does not guarantee commercial entry, why reimbursement codes should shape your market choice more than approval timelines and why he now finds EU MDR more convenient than many people expect. He also shares a contrarian view on device classification and why staying in the lowest risk class is not always the smart play.Finally, we explore the GCC regulatory landscape, which Basant argues is not less regulated but differently regulated, with data compliance requirements he found tougher than GDPR or HIPAA. He closes with a clear message on AI in healthcare and why he does not believe regulators will ever allow a clinician to be replaced.Timestamps[00:01:23] From Biomedical Engineering to a First Audit That Changed Everything[00:03:33] Why Everyone Thinks Regulatory Is Just a Documentation Department[00:06:07] How Long Will It Take and What Will It Cost: The Impossible Question[00:09:35] EU MDR vs FDA: Why Reimbursement Should Drive the Decision[00:12:19] Regulatory Approval Does Not Guarantee Commercial Success[00:14:36] Why Staying in the Lowest Risk Class Can Backfire[00:16:00] The GCC: Not Less Regulated, Just Differently Regulated[00:18:24] Why Data Compliance in the Gulf Is Tougher Than GDPR[00:23:30] Who Should Not Pursue a Career in Quality and Regulatory[00:29:17] Final Advice: AI Will Transform Healthcare but Not Replace CliniciansConnect with Basant - https://www.linkedin.com/in/basant-bajpai-phd-63565961Learn more about Complaince MedQRA - https://www.compliancemedqra.net/Get in touch with Karandeep Badwal - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/karandeepbadwal/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Karandeep on YouTube - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@KarandeepBadwal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Medical device training courses delivered by Karandeep through Bywater - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.bywater.co.uk/

Tohle už fakt není normální. Andrej Babiš přiletěl minulý týden do Paříže na setkání Koalice ochotných, kde zopakoval, co řekl už v Ankaře: nic na projekty protiraketové obrany a Ukrajinu nedáme, sami máme málo. Fajn, to by člověk mohl akceptovat jako politické stanovisko, s nímž může nesouhlasit, ale měl by ho brát na vědomí.Proč ale premiér zároveň pustil fantazii z uzdy a kompaktní skupině států v čele s Británií a Francií doporučil, aby vyloučila všechny nečleny EU a založila vývoj protiletecké obrany výhradně na členech Evropské unie? Nevysvětlil, proč by zrovna v tomhle efektivně spolupracujícím společenství zemí měly chybět Británie, Norsko, Kanada a další státy.K této nezvyklé zahraničněpolitické iniciativě se vrátil na tiskové konferenci vlády a jeho zdůvodnění bylo obtížné porozumět. Vůbec pondělní tiskovky vlády se začínají měnit v něco, co starší generace znají jako vystoupení posledního komunistického pohlavára Miloše Jakeše na Červeném Hrádku (viz YouTube). Pro tento formát je charakteristické řetězení myšlenek, skákání z tématu na téma, nedokončená souvětí plná vsuvek a obtížně pochopitelných sdělení.Jeden by měl dojem, že jde o zvláštní mozkové blackouty, které nejstaršího premiéra zemí Evropské unie spolehlivě odvádějí od základní myšlenky, jež se ztrácí ve změti pocitů a výkřiků.Je to ještě politika, nebo jsme svědky velmi pozdního odpoledne jednoho byznysmena, toho času premiéra České republiky?

Đầu năm nay, Chính phủ Pháp đã đề xuất “áp đặt mức bảo hộ tương đương với thuế quan chung khoảng 30% đối với hàng hóa từ Trung Quốc”. Mặc dù Đức ban đầu còn do dự, Thủ tướng Friedrich Merz đã phát tín hiệu sẵn sàng hành động trước các hành vi thương mại thiếu công bằng của Bắc Kinh.

Reaching carbon net zero by 2050 is one of the main objectives in the struggle against global warming. It's also part of the Green New Deal the EU agreed upon in 2019. Since the start of 2022, many figures in agriculture have been pushing for a carbon farming policy which would see farmers rewarded for their efforts in sequestering carbon. It's about using agricultural fields to store CO2 in the ground. Plants first absorb it from the air through a process called photosynthesis. Then their roots and other parts decompose, being converted into soil carbon by microbes. Soil is in fact the second largest form of carbon sink on Earth, after the oceans and ahead of forests. The aim is to sequester carbon more quickly. That leads to a greater organic content in the ground, allowing for better water retention and a reduction in the use of fertilizers. How does carbon farming work?Why is agriculture in particular concerned by the net zero target? What is expected at a European level? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Mein heutiger Gast ist Anna-Lena von Hodenberg. Sie war Journalistin, bis sie merkte, dass Beobachten ihr nicht mehr reicht. Mit HateAid unterstützt sie Menschen, die im Netz bedroht, beleidigt oder bloßgestellt werden. Wir haben in Bochum auf der Bühne vom “Gutes Morgen Festival” über Deepfakes, Shitstorms und Meinungsfreiheit gesprochen – und darüber, warum Hass oft nicht nur verletzen, sondern still machen soll. Am Ende geht es um eine einfache Frage: Was können wir tun, wenn andere angegriffen werden?

For more than four years, Russia has wagered that it can outlast Ukraine. The Kremlin has more troops, more resources, and a greater tolerance for casualties, betting that Kyiv—and its Western allies—will eventually lose the will to keep fighting. But that assumption is being tested. Ukraine is carrying out increasingly sophisticated strikes deep inside Russian territory, forcing Moscow to defend military bases, energy infrastructure, and even symbolic strongholds like Crimea. At the same time, NATO support has strengthened, Europe is expanding its defense cooperation with Kyiv, and President Donald Trump has struck a noticeably warmer tone toward Ukraine than he did just months ago. On the latest episode of the GZERO World podcast, Ian Bremmer sits down with former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba to discuss whether the momentum in the war is truly beginning to shift. They examine Ukraine's strategy of bringing the war home to Russia, why Kyiv believes pressure inside Russia is essential to changing the course of the conflict, and what Putin's remaining options look like if the costs continue to rise. Kuleba also weighs in on Trump's changing approach to Ukraine, NATO's long-term commitment, Ukraine's path toward the European Union, and why he believes Europe's future security is inseparable from Ukraine's future.

Simon Constable reports on extreme European temperatures and their impact on energy, noting major spikes in EU natural gas prices. He tracks shifting costs for wheat, corn, and copper. Additionally, he notes how Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian fertilizer plants could further disrupt global agriculture. (5)

STREAMING THE MAKING OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, FEATURING SIMON CONSTABLE, 7-16-26.1650The sources provide a detailed look at several interconnected global issues, ranging from geopolitical conflict and commodity volatility to climate extremes and societal health.The transcript highlights a significant escalation in the Middle East, specifically regarding the Bab-el-Mandeb and the Strait of Hormuz. The Houthi rebels have begun targeting the Bab-el-Mandeb, a critical choke point for Saudi Arabianoil exports. Additionally, reports indicate that the US Navy fired Hellfire missiles at an unarmed merchant oil tanker near Iran's Kharg Island after the vessel allegedly ignored multiple warnings. This move is described as a troubling development that complicates the "optics" of the ongoing conflict and raises questions about the US mission and definition of victory.Market instability is a recurring theme, with energy and agricultural prices reacting to conflict and climate. Brent crude rose to $85 per barrel, a 7% monthly increase, while European Union gas prices spiked by 30%. Prices for wheat (up 12%), soybeans (up 7%), and corn (up 7%) have climbed, partly attributed to a lack of fertilizer, exacerbated by Ukrainian drone strikes on major Russian petrochemical plants. A 2% drop in copper prices is noted as a worrying sign of a potential global economic slowdown.Environmental challenges are impacting both Europe and North America. Temperatures in France and the Mediterranean reached between 40°C and 44°C (112°F), leading to approximately a thousand excess deaths. Smoke from wildfires in Canada has drifted over New England, causing "smoky orange" skies and poor air quality. The sources also discuss the "Super El Niño" phenomenon—where Central Pacific waters are 2.5 degrees Celsius above normal—which disrupts global weather patterns by causing alternating cycles of drought and heavy precipitation.A featured "longevity quiz" provides insights into US and global health trends. The average life expectancy at birth in the US is 79 years. Hawaii has the highest average life expectancy, while West Virginia has the lowest at 72.2 years. Monaco, San Marino, and Hong Kong are identified as the regions with the highest longevity worldwide.The transcript notes a violent backlash against AI, with tech executives receiving death threats and data centers facing security incidents from those fearing job displacement. However, the speakers argue that AI is a tool that historically creates new opportunities and shifts the nature of work rather than destroying it entirely. They compare the current transition to the rapid technological shifts seen since 2009, which enabled remote broadcasting and new forms of digital entrepreneurship.Bullets converted to prose, headers removed. One correction: Kharg Island (source had "Car Island"). No tail numbers added — say the word if you want them.

SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 7-16-261948Anatol Lieven discusses the reinforcement of Ukraine following NATO meetings, highlighting German drone supplies and the symbolic value of US Patriot systems. While Baltic states fear imminent Russian provocations, Lieven argues Russia's army is currently too "bogged down" in Ukraine to risk a direct war with NATO. (1)Anatol Lieven analyzes the potential premiership of Mr. Burnham as he navigates pressures within the Labour Party. The discussion covers challenges like electoral reform, the rise of the Reform Party, and scandals. Burnham may avoid an immediate election to protect Labour's majority while opposition support fluctuates. (2)Caleb Weiss explains the complex counterterrorism landscape in the Horn of Africa, where al-Shabaab and ISISoperate. He details how the semi-autonomous Puntland region is rejecting Mogadishu's authority. US policy faces significant hurdles as funding for African Union missions reaches a critical crossroads. (3)Caleb Weiss reports on the failure of the 2022–2023 clan militia offensive, which allowed al-Shabaab to recapture lost territory. President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud faces a legitimacy crisis and constitutional conflict. Meanwhile, the UAEand Turkey conduct non-transparent drone strikes against various extremist targets in the north. (4)Simon Constable reports on extreme European temperatures and their impact on energy, noting major spikes in EU natural gas prices. He tracks shifting costs for wheat, corn, and copper. Additionally, he notes how Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian fertilizer plants could further disrupt global agriculture. (5)Simon Constable presents a quiz on longevity, revealing that the average US life expectancy has reached 79 years. Hawaii boasts the highest expectancy, while West Virginia remains the lowest. Globally, Monaco, San Marino, and Hong Kong lead in longevity according to United Nations data. (6)Doug Messier and Rick Fisher discuss China's planned 2027 circumlunar mission as a precursor to a lunar landing before 2030. This "Moon Race 2.0" challenges American prestige. While NASA aims for the South Pole by 2028, China and Russia plan an international research station to extract lunar resources. (7)Doug Messier and Rick Fisher explore the lack of cooperation between the US and China, viewing the solar system as a ground for ideological competition. Establishing permanent lunar bases requires major engineering feats, including nuclear power plants and rovers. China views the moon as a stepping stone for Mars. (8)Alan Mikhail discusses his book Newcomers, focusing on Anthony Jansen, known as "the Turk." Mikhail uses historical records to debunk the 150-year-old hypothesis that Anthony was the son of a Dutch pirate who converted to Islam, instead tracing his origins back to 17th-century Spain. (9)Alan Mikhail details the background of Anthony's wife, Grietje, a German migrant who worked as a barmaid or sex worker in Amsterdam. He explains the "soul seller" system used by maritime companies to recruit laborers. The couple married in 1629 and eventually sailed for New Amsterdam. (10)Alan Mikhail describes how the couple settled in Manhattan as ambitious farmers but faced friction with neighbors who used "the Turk" as a xenophobic insult. Their contentious behavior led to their banishment to Gravesend, Long Island. Mikhail highlights the clash between Dutch property rights and indigenous use-rights. (11)Alan Mikhail describes the "half-freedom" status given to some enslaved Africans, a system that cruelly ensured generational slavery. He also details the brutal violence of "Kieft's War" against Native Americans. Despite these conflicts and their exile, Anthony and Grietje prospered on their Long Island farm. (12)Veronique de Rugy warns that Social Security faces a 2032 deadline when trust fund assets will be depleted. Without reform, benefits could be cut by 22%. She advocates for means-testing to preserve benefits for those who truly need them, criticizing the current political silence on the issue. (13)Mary Anastasia O'Grady marks the fifth anniversary of Cuba's July 11 protests, noting the regime's ongoing brutal repression and imprisonment of political dissidents. She criticizes the United Nations for supporting the Cuban regime's narrative against US sanctions while ignoring the human rights atrocities on the island. (14)Thomas Savidge explains how the 2020–2021 pandemic strained state unemployment insurance systems. While 31 states were solvent before the crisis, many struggled with improper payments and fraud due to relaxed federal eligibility requirements. Some states fared better by taking the initiative to end bonus programs early. (15)Thomas Savidge proposes "Universal Savings Accounts" (USA) to replace complex government-managed savings vehicles. These accounts would grant individuals full ownership of their funds for unemployment or retirement. This reform aims to reduce fraud and address the long-term fiscal instability associated with the national "debt bomb." (16)Tail numbers (1)–(16), all standing corrections applied.48
