You are listening to Agri Culture, a podcast that aims to explore the stories of the people that make up our agricultural industry and culture of farming, in Scotland and beyond. On today's episode Mary-Jane Lawrie is joined by Lauren Houstoun from Glenkilrie Larder who tells us about her farming business, Glenkilrie Farm, which she runs with her husband Andrew and in-laws David and Morag Houstoun. They farm cattle, sheep and deer, and started selling their produce directly to their consumers through farmers markets. Lauren is passionate about producing high quality, local food, and this passion led her to campaign to improve the quality of food available in local schools. She showcases the provenance of their seasonal produce through the Glenkilrie Cook School, demonstrating cooking techniques, the history and heritage of the family and their commitment to sustainable farming practices. Thanks for joining us for this episode of Agri Culture. If you'd like to find out more about Glenkilrie Larder you can find the link in the show notes. This episode was presented by Mary-Jane Lawrie, produced by Kerry Hammond and edited by Cameron Waugh, in association with the Scottish Government.

Na brutální počátky svátku práce dnes už zapomínáme. Aktivní tehdy byli i čeští socialisté a dělníci. Jejich síla překvapila i Bedřicha Engelse. Co pro nás tento svátek znamená dnes? Jaké jsou dějiny svátku práce a má smysl ho ještě dnes slavit? To bylo hlavní téma živého nahrávání podcastu Studio Alarm+ v brněnském Klubu zastupitelů. Přesně 1. května se tady totiž odehrávala akce Státky kolektivu Terén, která se snaží aktualizovat obsah některých našich svátků. Nahrávání našeho podcastu doplnilo workshop a výrobu fanzinu studentského kolektivu Fasáda. Se Studiem Alarm+ jsme se ovšem zaměřili na historii svátku práce. Pokusili jsme se zpřítomnit, proč tento svátek vůbec slavíme a jaké jsou jeho dějiny. Dostali jsme se i k otázce, proč je dobré tento svátek slavit i dnes. Hostkou tohoto dílu byla odborová organizátorka a redaktorka feministického média Druhá směna Maja Vusilović. Hostem byl také historik Boleslav Šmejkal, který se zaměřuje na dějiny dělnického hnutí. Diskuzi moderoval Jan Bělíček. PODPOŘTE VZNIK DALŠÍCH EPIZOD NA KOMUNITA.DENIKALARM.CZ

„Ve městě často chybí prostory pro mladé dospělé. Předěláním ulice Kolejní na to reagujeme – je to taková naše zašívárna," říká autorská trojice, která proměnila ulici Kolejní v Dejvicích v improvizované městské hřiště. Frederik Daňko, Sára Kročková a Albert Kulík z Fakulty architektury ČVUT dokázali, že veřejný prostor může s trochou péče fungovat úplně jinak.Všechny díly podcastu Fasády můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

“Ey iman edenler! Kendinizi ve ailenizi, yakıtı insanlar ve taşlar olan ateşten koruyun.O ateşin başında gayet katı, çetin, Allah'ın kendilerine verdiği emirlere karşı gelmeyen ve kendilerineemredilen şeyi yapan melekler vardır.” Tahrim 6“Ey inkâr edenler! Bu gün özür dilemeyin! Siz ancak yapmakta olduklarınızın karşılığını görüyorsunuz.” 7Dünyadaki ateşler taşı yakamaz. Cehennem ateşi nasıl bir ateş ki yakıtı insan ve taş?“Keşşâfda, bu ifadeye, "Günahları terkedip, taatları yapmak ve ailenizi, kendinizi sorumlu tuttuğunuzşeylerle sorumlu tutmanız suretiyle, koruyun" manası verilmiştir. Yine bu ifadeye, "Kendinizi, nefsinizidavet ettiği şeylerden koruyun. Çünkü nefis, size kötü şeyleri emreder" manası verilmiştir."Bu ateşin başında iri gövdeli, sert tabiatlı melekler vardır." Cenâb-ı Hakk bu ifadeyle, on dokuzzebânî (cehennem bekçisi melek) ile onların yardımcılarını kastetmiştir. Bunlar, alabildiğine büyük, haşin vesert meleklerdir. Onların bu şekilde yaratılmış olmaları yadırganacak bir şey değildir. Yahut da onlar, Allah'ındüşmanlarına karşı, alabildiğine şiddetli, Allah dostlarına karşı alabildiğine merhametli oldukları için,hilkatlerinde değil de işlerinde böyle serttirler. Nitekim Hak teâlâ (mü'minleri vasfederken), "(Onlar),kâfirlere karşı alabildiğine sert; birbirlerine karşı ise son derece merhametlidirler" (Fetih 29) buyurmuştur.Ayetteki, "Ne emrolundular ise onu yaparlar" ifadesi. işin gerektirdiği ortamdan ötürü onların, çok çetin vesert olduklarına delâlet eder. Çünkü onlar Allah'ın emirlerini yerine getirme ve düşmanlarından intikamalma hususunda asla şefkatli davranmazlar. Burada, meleklerin, âhirette, Allahü teâlâ'nın emir ve yasaklarıile mükellef olmaya devam ettiklerine bir işaret vardır. Çünkü onlardan sâdır olacak isyan. Allah'ın emir veyasağına muhalefet olur."Ey kâfirler, bugün özür dilemeyin" buyurmuştur ki bu, "Onlara, "Bugün mazeret beyan etmeyin" denilecek"takdirindedir. Çünkü mazeret beyan atmek, tevbe etmek demektir. Tevbe ise, cehenneme girdikten sonra,artık makbul değildir. Binâenaleyh mazeret beyan etmek, onlara bir fayda vermez. yani, "Sizin yapmışolduğunuz o kötü amelleriniz, hikmet-i ilahiyye gereği size bu azabı gerekli kılmıştır."Allahü teâlâ, "Eğer yapamazsanız, ki kesinlikle yapamayacaksınız, o halde yakıtı insanlar ve taşlar olan oateşten korununuz. Zira o, kâfirler için hazırlanmıştır" (Bakara, 24) buyurarak, cehennemin kâfirler içinyaratıldığını bildirmiştir. Öyleyse burada, mü'minlere böyle hitap etmesinin hikmeti nedir? Deriz ki:Fasıkların derekeleri, kâfirlerin derekelerinin üstündedir. Çünkü fasıklar da kâfirlerle birlikte, aynı yerde,yani cehennemdedirler. Bundan dolayı mü'minlere, "Bu ateşin kendileri için hazırlandığı kimselerlebirlikte olmamanız için, fısk-ı fücurdan (günahtan) alabildiğine kaçınmak suretiyle kendinizi bu ateştenkoruyun" denmiştir. Bu hitapla, Cenâb-ı Hakk'ın onlara, mürtedlikten korunmalarını emretmiş olması dauzak bir ihtimal değildir.” RaziAli (radıyallahü anh), Katade ve Mücahid şöyle demişlerdir: Yaptığınız işlerle kendinizi koruyunuz, onlarayapacağınız tavsiyelerle de aile halkınızı koruyunuz.el-Kuşeyrî'nin zikrettiğine göre bu âyet-i kerîme nazil olunca, Ömer (radıyallahü anh) şöyle demiş:Ey Allah'ın Rasûlü! Haydi kendimizi koruduk diyelim. Peki aile halkımıza ne yapabiliriz?' Peygamber şöylebuyurdu: "Allah'ın size yasakladığı şeylerden onları alıkoyarsınız, Allah'ın emrettiklerini onlara daemredersiniz.""Sen aile halkına namazı emret, kendin de sabırla ona devam et" (Taha, 20/132)"Önce yakın akrabanı uyar." (eş-Şuara, 26/214)"Çocuklarınıza yedi yaşında namaz kılmalarını emrediniz. (Kılmazlarsa) on yaşında onları (hafifçe)dövünüz ve yataklarını birbirinden ayırınız." Ebû Dâvûd, I, 133; Hâkim“Hepiniz çobansınız ve hepiniz sürüsünden sorumludur. İnsanların başındaki İmâm (İslâm devletininyöneticisi) bir çobandır ve o, onlardan sorumludur. Adam aile halkı üzerinde bir çobandır ve onlardansorumludur."

Welcome to Stock Talk. In this episode James is joined by David Speller from OptiFarm. David is a poultry farmer who had lots of data and not enough time to analyse it. David will tell us about the AI tool he developed to help him make better informed decisions, which attracted the eyes of investors leading to his company OptiFarm.

Hello and welcome to Crofting Matters, hosted by Siobhan Macdonald, and this is the Farm Advisory Service series where we discuss topics that matter in crofting. For this episode, we're heading north to the wild and windswept Shetland isles to explore the unique world of island crofting and the remarkable resilience of Shetland's crofters. Join Siobhan Macdonald and Osla Jamwal Fraser as they dive into the opportunities and challenges of farming on the archipelago — from the advantages of geographic isolation for maintaining high-health livestock schemes, to the realities of costly transport links and long ferry crossings. With Osla at the helm of the series for 2026, we will uncover some of Shetland's most fascinating agricultural stories and industries, including its iconic Shetland sheep, world-famous wool, native ponies, and even the surprising rise of spaceports among the islands' rugged landscapes. This is a journey into innovation, tradition, and life at the edge of the North Sea. Thanks for joining us for this episode of Crofting Matters.

The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service updated its organizational structure to better reflect how agencies buy and vendors sell. The new setup features five new portfolios called: Assist, Centralize, Create, Deliver and Optimize. Each is bringing together sometimes disparate services and moving FAS out of its previous organizational structure that centered on category management. For more on what drove this reorganization, Federal News Network executive editor Jason Miller caught up with Laura Stanton, the acting commissioner of GSA's FAS.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the first episode of the new series, we speak with Donya Davidson and Sophie Manson from NatureScot about their Natural Capital Tool and find out what it is, the challenges it addresses, and how it supports land managers in Scotland. We have a walk through showing how the tool works in practice and how it allows decision makers to identify strategies that maximise positive outcomes. The Natural Capital Tool is a free, easy-to-use spatial decision support tool designed to enable a natural capital approach to land management. Considering the full range of benefits and ecosystem services nature provides, it helps users plan land use in ways that deliver multiple benefits for both people and the environment. Developed by NatureScot in collaboration with Liverpool John Moores University and EOLAS Insight, it is tailored specifically to Scotland's landscapes and needs.

Wenn Unterstützung wegbrichtWas passiert eigentlich, wenn genau die Hilfen gestrichen werden, die Familien mit FASD dringend brauchen? In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Nevin darüber, warum die aktuelle Sparpolitik viele Betroffene an ihre Grenzen bringt – und manchmal sogar darüber hinaus.Zwischen Engagement und ErschöpfungWir nehmen dich mit in die Arbeit des neu gegründeten Bundesverbands und zeige dir, wie viel Engagement, aber auch wie viel Unsicherheit gerade im System steckt. Wir sprechen über politische Prozesse, fehlende Strukturen und darüber, warum gerade unsichtbare Behinderungen wie FASD oft übersehen werden.Was jetzt wirklich gebraucht wirdGemeinsam schauen wir darauf, was Familien brauchen: Aufklärung, passende Diagnostik, echte Teilhabe und vor allem präventive Maßnahmen. Ich teile konkrete Beispiele aus dem Alltag, die zeigen, wie schnell Systeme versagen – aber auch, welche kleinen Unterstützungen Großes bewirken können.Am Ende geht es um eine klare Botschaft: Menschen mit FASD brauchen keine Rechtfertigung für ihre Existenz, sondern echte Unterstützung.LinksPFAD Niedersachsen - Landesverband der Pflege- und Adoptivfamilien in Niedersachsen Bundesverband FASD PAFF - Pädagogisches Aktionsbündnis für FASD Nevims Instagram Account Eigenwerbung: Link führt zu meinem kostenlosen Webinar, in dem ich auch meinen Onlinekurs vorstelle.Wenn du tiefer einsteigen möchtest:Im kostenlosen Webinar zeige ich, wie Familien und Menschen aus ihrem Umfeld den Alltag mit FASD besser verstehen und entspannter gestalten können.Kostenloses Webinar ansehen

Financial Times, FAZ, FAS, SPIEGEL, FUNKE - Mehr Mainstream geht nicht. Melanie Amann ist mit Leib und Seele Journalistin und findet, sie hat “den besten Job der Welt.” Ich wurde eindrücklich vor ihr gewarnt, denn sie könnte mir eine Falle stellen. Die ehemalige SPIEGEL-Chefredakteurin und ausgewiesene AfD-Expertin wisse, wie man Gespräche lenkt und wirke harmloser, als sie insgeheim sei. Ich habe mich dennoch auf das Gespräch gefreut und mich möglichst unvoreingenommen darauf eingelassen. Drei Stunden lang unterhielten wir uns dann über Journalismus, die AfD und meine Verantwortung als Podcast-Host. Wir haben kontrovers darüber diskutiert, ob ich tatsächlich verantwortungslos handle, wenn ich Björn Höcke einfach reden lasse. Wem in einer Demokratie das Mikrofon eigentlich gehört. Und ob Saskia Eskens Werbeboykott-Aufruf aus dem Bundestag gerechtfertigt war. Am Ende hat sie noch einen Ausblick mitgebracht und erklärt, warum „Frauen noch gar nicht angefangen haben zu übertreiben".

In this episode of Simply Trade, host Lalo Solorzano is joined by Trudy Wilson, longtime Global Training Center instructor and trade compliance expert, for the first installment of what Lalo calls “Trudy's Trade Tips.” This conversation focuses on a foundational topic that continues to create confusion across import and export teams: Incoterms 2020. Trudy breaks down why companies should not simply default to familiar terms like FOB or Ex Works, especially when containerized freight, export filing, loading responsibility, and risk exposure are involved. Key Takeaways Incoterms are voluntary, but they help buyers and sellers clearly define responsibility. There are 11 Incoterms, but most companies should focus primarily on the 7 “any mode” terms. FOB, CIF, CFR, and FAS are often misused when goods are moving in containers. “Ocean shipment” does not automatically mean one of the ocean-only terms applies. Ex Works may look simple for the seller, but it can create serious compliance and operational risk. Export filing, proof of export, loading responsibility, and product destination still matter. AI and automation can help, but trade professionals still need the foundation to validate results. Featured Discussion Trudy explains why the four sea and inland waterway terms should generally be reserved for goods that are “pumped or dumped” onto a vessel, such as oil, grain, minerals, or ore. For most containerized shipments, even when moving by ocean, companies should usually be evaluating the seven any-mode Incoterms instead. She also cautions against the casual use of Ex Works, reminding exporters that “easy” does not always mean low risk. Memorable Quote “If you don't have the foundation right, you're going to have issues with the tariffs anyway.” Hosts Lalo Solorzano Trudy Wilson About Simply Trade Simply Trade is a podcast by Global Training Center, created for trade compliance professionals, importers, exporters, customs brokers, and supply chain leaders who want practical conversations about global trade.

Um die Milliardendefizite bei den Krankenkassen auszugleichen, will die schwarz-rote Bundesregierung das Gesundheitssystem umbauen: U.a. sollen die beitragsfreie Familienversicherung eingedampft, die Kosten für Rezepte angehoben und die Ausgaben der Krankenkassen an die Einnahmen gekoppelt werden. Während der Ärztekammerpräsident die geplante Reform als „durchaus angemessen“ bezeichnet hat, laufen Sozialverbände und Patientenschützer dagegen Sturm. Wie sinnvoll sind die Maßnahmen im Einzelnen?

While completing a functional behavior assessment is an ethical requirement before engaging in behavior change programming, only a minority of BCBAs consistently do this. And since many of the barriers to completing FAs revolve around seemingly insurmountable (and ethical concern of) risks to clicents, wouldn't having a more structured way to assess the risk of an FA and more quickly review mitigating factors provide a potential solution to these problems? Well, that's exactly what Dr. Stephanie Peterson and her former students Dr. Rebecca Eldridge and Dr. Neil Deochand thought when they developed their Functional Analysis Risk Assessment Decision Tool. This week, as voted on by our Patrons, how to complete a risk assessment before starting your functional analysis from the people at the forefront of this research.
