Carlton hold their fate and the interest levels in round 24 in their hands this weekend and might we see two coaching appointments in the next seven days? Corbin, Ben and Brett Deledio look forward to the round ahead and a key question from each game plus chat through the latest in the Jake Kolodjashnij and Geelong issue.Did we get it completely wrong on Brisbane, have our trust levels of Hawthorn reached new lows, why Zak Butters shouldn't risk playing and does the longest current streak in footy continue when Geelong play the Kangaroos?On the coaching front, Josh Fraser can all but guarantee his coaching future with a Carlton win and wildcard slot and why it's cleaner to appoint Mark McVeigh Essendon coach until after the Bombers play Sydney this weekend.ABC AFL commentators Corbin Middlemas and Ben Cameron are joined by a rolling squad of former AFL players and legends of the game to analyse matches, deep dive the stories dominating the footy landscape, recap game highlights and talk through the latest AFL ladder standings.

Professor Emma Schymanski reveals what water carries, why bottled may offer no advantage, and how our daily choices flow back into every glass. We turn on a tap, fill a glass, make a cup of tea (many cups, in my case) dozens of times a day without thinking twice. But our water carries traces of everything around it: the medication we take, the cosmetics we wear, even the flame retardants in our sofas. Some of it is monitored closely. Some of it we're only just learning to detect. And water, of course, doesn't stop at a border. To unpack all of this, I sat down with Prof. Emma Schymanski, Head of Environmental Cheminformatics at the Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine, University of Luxembourg, and an FNR ATTRACT Fellow. Her work combines chemical detective work with high resolution mass spectrometry to find chemicals hiding in water that nobody knew to look for, and to trace them back to their source. The Water Cycle Ignores Borders Water moves the way weather does: without any concern for what is a political border. Rain falls, rivers carry it across countries, and it sinks into groundwater that doesn't recognise a map. For Luxembourg, sitting downstream of its neighbours, that means inheriting chemical traces long before they reach a Luxembourg tap. Even in the Alps, even in Antarctica, contamination that starts on one continent eventually cycles back down in rainwater on another. Your Water's Fingerprint When people hear "water contamination," pesticides usually come to mind first. But that's a small part of the picture. Emma's team also finds pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, flame retardants, anti icing agents and dyes, everyday traces of everyday life. During the pandemic, her team watched caffeine levels in wastewater drop as the working population stayed home, and medical imaging dyes vanish almost entirely as routine cancer diagnostics paused. Antidepressant levels rise every winter. Antihistamines spike every spring. The Detective Work So how do you find a chemical when you don't know it's there? Emma's team runs water samples through mass spectrometry and looks for anomalies: a signal spiking above baseline, or one that suddenly disappears (in one case, tracing back to a factory shutting down for a six week holiday). It's forensic work, applied to a glass of water. That same technique now underpins wastewater epidemiology, used across Europe to trace drug use, and even, in one memorable case, to work out how drugs were getting into a prison. Tap Water vs Bottled Water Now here's a way to save money and perhaps stress. Emma's own research compared tap and bottled water across Luxembourg and found no statistically significant difference between them. The only real difference was between filtered and unfiltered tap water, and even filtering introduced its own new, if fewer, unknowns. She drinks from the tap herself, no filter at home. Even reverse osmosis, often floated as the ultimate fix, has a catch. It strips out almost everything, including the minerals your body needs, meaning treated water then has to have things added back in. "If you're drinking snow only, it won't quench your thirst, because it will actually start to strip the salt from your body," Emma explained. What You Can Actually Do This isn't a call to panic. It's a case for informed, small choices: Let the tap run cold for a couple of minutes before drinking, especially in older buildings, to clear water that's been sitting in the pipes. Favour metal, ceramic or glass over soft plastics for reusable bottles and cups. Don't assume "eco" means chemical free. Some paper straws are treated with solvents to stop them going soggy. Wash new clothing before wearing it. The New Frontier: Data Centres AI and water is a massive discussion right now. Emma noted that the cooling systems have their own knock on contamination risks. This is perhaps a conversation for another episode. Where to find the show: The Lisa Burke Show airs on RTL Today, RTL Play, and RTL Today Radio, and is available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Day 1,617.As yet more Russian Wildberries distribution sites reach for the stars, Ukrainian missile producer Firepoint wins the month's top-trolling award by offering merch to anyone who correctly predicts their next target. Dom reports how ballistic-missile defence is the hot topic of military and diplomatic discussion at the moment, with offers from Poland, favours asked of SpaceX and, perhaps least surprising of all, a growing coolness from Donald Trump over the plan/idea/wishful thinking that Ukraine would be given the Patriot blueprints.

Thank you Jesus for publishing 700 episodes!

We are now reading of the more serious developments in the life of David: the full extent of the trouble that Nathan the prophet had said would come upon him as a result of his sins of adultery and murder.  His son Absalom has a conspiracy to seize the throne and David flees from Jerusalem saying, “If I find favour in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me back … but if he says, ‘I have no pleasure in you , behold here I am, let him do what seems good to him.”  [2 Sam. 15 v.25,26]Then “David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, weeping as he went” [v.30]. We note how the Mount of Olives also features in the life of David's ‘greater son,' Jesus, “it was his custom” to go there [Luke 22 v.39].  Jesus ascended to heaven from here and will return there [Acts 1 v.11-12] and cause it to split in two [Zech. 14 v.4] and surely that last event will be a key factor in God's physical judgements on our godless world! The vision in Revelation invites us to read it as a literal event, for together with the reference to “Armageddon” we read, “…there were flashes of lightning , rumblings, peals of thunder, and a great earthquake such as there had never been since man was on the earth, so great was that earthquake.” [16 v.18]The last verse in our chapter in Jeremiah (19) is also relevant to our thoughts, “Thus says in LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, behold, I am bringing upon this city and upon all its towns all the disaster that I have pronounced against it, because they have stiffened their neck, refusing to hear my words”   Today, God's word is available to be read in every language, but how many “hear” by properly reading it?  In God's perception of humans today, nearly all are stiff-necked!  Let us make sure we are not. Let us become like Abraham of whom we read today in Romans ch. 4; “No distrust made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God, fully convinced that God was able to do what he had promised.   That is why his faith was “counted to him as righteousness.”  But the words “it was counted to him” were not written for his sake alone, but for ours also.  It will be counted to us who believe in him who raised from the dead, Jesus our Lord.” [v.20-24]  May no distrust, no disbelief make us waver – but instead may we “grow strong in faith” and so “find favour.” 

The favour of God is more than a blessing—it is the mark of His presence upon your life. In this message, Pastor Nicky Van Der Westhuizen reveals how God's favour cannot be earned through performance but is received by grace and walked out through faith and obedience. As Scripture unfolds, you'll discover how divine favour opens doors, establishes purpose, and distinguishes those who trust in the Lord. Whether you're waiting for breakthrough or stepping into a new season, this message will strengthen your confidence that God has already marked you for His purpose. Receive His Word, walk in faith, and expect His favour to go before you.

Success is often a harder test than adversity. Unlike Vashti and Nebuchadnezzar, who let pride ruin their positions, Esther remained deeply humble. Never let your blessings replace the Blesser. Always remember that God alone put you where you are today.

Spain are world champions once again after a dominant FIFA World Cup campaign, defeating Argentina 1-0 in the final. But beyond the result, the tournament has sparked fierce debate over contrasting footballing philosophies, refereeing decisions and the narratives that shaped the competition.In this episode of In Focus, we unpack Spain's rise under Luis de la Fuente, how their possession-based game has evolved since 2010, and why they emerged as the tournament's standout team. We also examine Argentina's gritty run to the final, the criticism of its physical approach, and whether allegations of favourable refereeing and FIFA bias stand up to scrutiny.

The RMA Reform Minister says there's been a "mad rush" for councils and iwi to secure deals before the concept is scrapped. The Government had initially planned for the Mana Whakahono ā Rohe to be transferred to the new Resource Management Act system. But that will no longer be the case, the Government arguing these agreements have become out-of-scope and unfit for purpose. Minister Chris Bishop told Mike Hosking the focus will instead be on identifying sites of cultural significance. He says most New Zealanders would agree pā sites and burial sites should be exempt from development. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS shares insights from 13+ years helping businesses improve their websites and online presence. He highlights that first impressions on a website are like setting the feel of a room; you have to make visitors want to take action. The episode stresses the importance of providing clear instructions and having compelling calls to action right from the start.Website success isn't just about aesthetics—it's about strategy, clarity, and engagement. Favour illustrates how timely follow-ups, even post-room, can convert onlookers into leads and customers. He delves into marketing psychology—especially how colors like yellow and blue (used by Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy) foster trust and encourage clicks.Practical stories, such as how a wedding dress site started getting national customers after targeted changes, anchor the advice in reality. Favour also recommends constant testing and evaluating everything from wording (“Book a Call” vs. “Schedule a Call”) to color choices on buttons to increase conversions.Throughout, Favour encourages thinking beyond just “having” a website: ensure it is working for you by guiding visitors from interest to engagement and decision.

Every civilization in human history has been organized around some form of currency — a medium of exchange that determines access, power, and possibility. In ancient Egypt, it was grain. In medieval Europe, it was land and titles. In the modern world, it is money. Currency, whatever its form, answers the question: What do you have that others want badly enough to grant you access to what they have?

For our Next Steps Sunday, Pastor Callum reminds us that even Jesus, in His humanity, experienced growth and progression as He faithfully walked out God's plan for His life.

Seth tracked Murray down via Facebook Messenger and asked: "Hi Murray, really appreciate your AWA podcast, great short bursts of knowledge. One question that bugs me about legionaries. Why did the Romans completely abandon the spear in favour of the pilum? Does it function effectively as a thrusting weapon as well as a thrown weapon? If you have a space for a two-for, do you have time to talk about the comparative effectiveness of slings vs bows in the classical world? When did slings drop out of use in organised warfare? That's probably three, but you've made the mistake of being highly accessible and willing to take a crack at all sorts of topics." Join us on Patreon patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast  

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS breaks down website anatomy, emphasizing that a "pretty" site is useless if it doesn't function technically. He explains the psychology of website navigation, detailing three types of scrolling: eye paths, scroll paths, and decision zones. Guest speakers advocate for starting with a simple, high-converting one-page website on platforms like Wix, rather than getting overwhelmed by complex builds. The conversation also covers the importance of proper logo linking, customized social media icons, and integrating live chat to reduce friction and boost sales.>>

Our first reading is the heart stirring account of young Samuel in the Temple/tabernacle at Shiloh and the LORD calling him, “Samuel, Samuel” – and the message he received about the failure of Eli to discipline his sons.  The ungodliness of their behaviour in appearing to serve the LORD makes sad reading – but it has had its parallels in every generation – especially today. In contrast, the vision Isaiah records is fascinating, “Thus says the LORD, the redeemer of Israel …. In a time of favour I have answered you, in a day of salvation I have helped you … to establish the land”  [49 v.7,8] We recall what we read 2 days ago, “I am God … declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done … I will accomplish all my purpose” [46 v.9,10].  The Jews over the centuries have often felt abandoned, but how significant are v. 13-15 in today's chapter!   “… the LORD … will have compassion on his afflicted … But Zion said, ‘The LORD has forsaken me; my Lord has forgotten me.'  Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion … Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you.”As we reflect on the events of the last 70 – 80 years – we see how remarkable are v. 23, 25 ”… those who wait for me shall not be put to shame … for I will contend with those who contend with you, and I will save your children.”  We have seen this happen, the nations surrounding the new born nation of Israel contended with her in vain, the “time of favour” had begun.Our chapters in Revelation are awesome in many ways, especially in the angels of God being “told … to harm …only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads,” [9 v.4] What does the “seal” symbolise?  Ownership!  John, in his gospel, recorded Jesus as saying, “Do not labour for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life … on him (or her) God the Father has set his seal.” [6 v.27]May we all increasingly live with minds saturated with godly thoughts – and then resultant actions – that show we are committed to God and His Son – and will therefore experience the wonder of the ultimate “time of favour.”

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS breaks down the anatomy of a business website. He explains that owning a domain, hosting, and a mailbox are just the starting points; maintaining a website is like maintaining a house. Favour details the risks of platform lock-in (like the migration challenges with Squarespace and Bluehost) and emphasizes the importance of a standalone FAQ page to boost search impressions. He provides a checklist for website owners, covering image compression, canonical tags, and critical integrations like Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools.>>
