Adrian Mardell, topman van Jaguar Land Rover, vertrekt na 35 jaar. Hoewel hij al eerder aangaf na drie jaar als CEO met pensioen te willen, komt het moment toch wat onverwacht. Zijn vertrek valt samen met een rumoerige periode voor het bedrijf: een radicale rebranding van Jaguar, de overstap naar volledig elektrisch vóór 2030, en een nieuw, onbegrepen Range Rover-logo. En opvallend: er is nog geen opvolger. Daarmee is hij de zoveelste CEO in de autosector die het veld ruimt, na onder meer de topmannen van Renault, Stellantis en Volvo. Verder in deze update Fors verlies en een nieuwe ceo bij Renault Ferrari blijft op koers EV-vakanties populairder onder Nederlanders Vanmiddag in De Nationale AutoshowMark Wegh, directeur van Porsche Centrum Gelderland, is te gast.

AI-modeller, der truer med at afsløre personlige hemmeligheder, lyder som noget fra en dystopisk sci-fi-film.Men det er et af resultaterne i et forsøg, hvor AI-virksomheden Anthropic slap ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini og flere andre af de mest kendte sprogmodeller løs i et fiktivt firma, hvor AI’erne havde rettighed til at læse med i al data i virksomheden, inklusive medarbejdernes e-mails.Hvad viser forsøget os om mulige konsekvenser af den kunstige intelligens’ hastige fremfærd?

Søren sad ved et bord og drak øl med sine venner. Iført hvid tanktop og dynejakke.Det havde Anja bemærket.Hun dansede i en glitrende, blå sommerkjole med dyb udskæring og var umiddelbart ikke tiltrukket af den tatoverede fyr. Han lignede en smartass, tænkte hun, mens forårsaftenen blev til nat på diskoteket i Haderslev.De havde hverken udvekslet blikke eller ord. Det ændrede en våd isterningeleg på.For Søren var Anja bare endnu en fangst. For Anja var Søren blot en tilfældighed, et ubekymret afbræk fra hverdagen i USA.Den skulle hun tilbage til få dage senere. Og så ville de alligevel aldrig mødes igen. Hun tog fejl.Og det, der begyndte som en uskyldig flirt på et diskotek, udviklede sig hurtigt til en vild fortælling om kærlighed, kompromiser og en vanvittig beslutning midt på Storebæltsbroen.Hør Søren og Anjas vilde kærlighedshistorie, læst op af journalist Kenneth Thygesen.

Europa en Amerika naderen elkaar over een handelsdeal, zo melden verschillende internationale media waaronder Politico, de Financial Times en Reuters. Met die deal gaat Amerika vijftien procent aan invoerrechten heffen op Europese producten. Volgens Koen Verhelst, verslaggever internationale handel bij Politico, is dit geen overwinning voor Europa. 'Dit is slechter dan de status quo die er was.' Luister ook | Fors hoger EU-budget: ‘Je kan grote bedragen besparen als je het gezamenlijk uitgeeft’ 'Een official vergeleek het met een rotte vis die door de Amerikanen op tafel is gegooid. Het enige wat je dan doet is die rotte vis van tafel proberen te krijgen omdat je van de stank af wil, maar voor de rest los je niks op', zegt Verhelst. Ook blijven er veel dingen onduidelijk over wat er nou wel en niet onder die heffingen gaat vallen. Wel ziet het er naar uit dat onderdelen van de Franse vliegtuigbouwer Airbus welkom blijven in de VS. Lees ook | China en EU gaan samenwerken in strijd tegen klimaatverandering Gespannen relatie tussen Europa en China Europa en China vieren dat ze 50 jaar diplomatieke banden met elkaar hebben, maar eigenlijk valt er bar weinig te vieren. China houdt de export van zeldzame aardmetalen naar Europa tegen en ‘wij’ komen steeds verder achterop te liggen. Von der Leyen en Costa waren in Beijing te gast, maar eigenlijk was het de beurt aan president Xi om naar ons toe te komen, maar daar had hij geen zin in. Volgens CDA-Europarlementariër Tom Berendsen zijn we heel erg naïef geweest over China, maar de maatregelen die Europa nu neemt om zijn concurrentiepositie tegenover China te versterken gaan voor hem nog niet ver genoeg. Luister ook | #271: Zelensky en zijn anticorruptiewet: Oekraïners houd je niet voor de gek Zelensky onder druk De Oekraïense president Zelensky ligt zwaar onder vuur vanwege zijn anticorruptiewet in Oekraïne. Hij gaat de wet nu aanpassen, maar het is nog maar de vraag of hij de geest daarmee in de fles krijgt. Ook spraken Rusland en Oekraïne elkaar weer eens over een einde van de oorlog, maar dat overleg duurde welgeteld één uur. Daarover Europa-verslaggever Geert Jan Hahn. Luister ook | Amerika Podcast Epstein frustreert Trump steeds meer | Postma in Amerika Er komen steeds meer berichten over frustratie in het Witte Huis over de aanhoudende aandacht voor de zaak-Epstein.

Wat zit er vandaag in De 7? Vlaanderen herbestemt amper bouwgrond naar open ruimte, blijkt uit een analyse van onze datacel.

Niet iedereen reageert even blij op het voorstel van de Europese Commissie voor de nieuwe begroting. De begroting moet omhoog van 1.200 naar 2.000 miljard. De één vindt dat te veel, maar voor D66-Europarlementariër Gerben Jan Gerbrandy gaat het niet ver genoeg. ‘Je kan grote bedragen besparen als je het gezamenlijk uitgeeft. Het moet veel efficiënter. Luister ook | 'Mot over handel kan verhoudingen binnen de NAVO beïnvloeden' Wat opvalt is dat er niet langer een eigen landbouwbudget is, één van de hoekstenen van de Europese samenwerking. Het wordt ondergebracht in een ander fonds en het bedrag gaat omlaag, maar lidstaten mogen wel zelf bepalen hoe ze dat dan inzetten, legt Europa-verslaggever Geert Jan Hahn uit. Ook wijst hij naar de bedenker van dit beleid, de Nederlandse oud-minister en oud-Eurocommissaris Sicco Mansholt. Gerbrandy vindt het een goede zaak dat het landbouwbudget omlaag gaat. ‘Voedselzekerheid is geen enkel probleem meer. Het inkomen van de boeren is nog niet altijd even veilig, daar is wel geld voor nodig, maar er zijn ook veel boeren die nu steun krijgen die dat niet nodig hebben.’ Lees ook | Nieuwe Oekraïense premier Svyrydenko denkt in oplossingen Oekraïne krijgt toch weer wapens van Trump Trump komt toch weer over de brug met wapens voor Oekraïne, maar Europa moet ze betalen. Ook dreigt Trump Poetin met sancties als hij niet over de brug komt en een deal met Oekraïne sluit vóór 1 september. Volgens commodore Frans Osinga, hoogleraar oorlogsstudies aan de Universiteit Leiden, zijn de toezeggingen van Trump niet in beton gegoten. Wel is hij nog hoopvol over de kansen van Oekraïne.

Esben og Jakob ser på, hvorfor vi kan bruge så mange milliarder på oprustning, uden der kommer mere politisk slagsmål om det – og hvor længe det kan blive ved. De taler om ugens partilederdebat på DR, som ikke mindst være mærkelig fordi regeringsledelsen udeblev, og så ser de på Morten Messerschmidts færd i dansk politik og en tur til nationalkonservativ konference i Ungarn. Ugens emner i #dkpol:Oprustning (12:31): Mette Frederiksen foreslår, at Danmark skal afsætte fem procent af BNP om året – svarende til 90 milliarder kroner – til oprustning. Esben og Jakob ser på argumenterne, både set fra vælgernes perspektiv og fra Christiansborg, for hvorfor vi skal bruge så mange milliarder på massiv oprustning.Messerschmidt (29:41): Dansk Folkeparti går frem i meningsmålingerne – men hvad vil Morten Messerschmidt egentlig? Esben har set hans seneste tale fra folketingssalen, mens Jakob har set den, han for nylig holdt i Ungarn.Mærkelig partilederdebat (42:38): På DR blev der holdt partilederdebat, men regeringsledelsen udeblev – måske fordi de havde vigtigere ting at tage sig til. Esben og Jakob diskuterer, hvorfor debatten blev så mærkelig, og Jakob gennemgår de fire aspekter, der ifølge ham kan gøre en regering upopulær.Fredag den 13. juni løber løbeklubben for sidste gang i denne sæson og får samtidig Folkemøde-debut.

Sometimes it comes out first as a story and then later as an illustration, sometimes vice versa The process of how illustrator winners of Writers and Illustrators of the Future are "teamed up" with a writer winner Cherrie's four-book epic science fiction series - which is a story about people re-claiming self-determination The graphic novel Cherrie is working on which, at first, she wasn't sure what medium it was going to emerge into How a lot of the skills that Cherrie initially learned about art was self-taught, before she received more formal instruction Learning the right time to make that creative jump as a creator How when she is in the midst of the process of creating, regardless of whether it is writing or art, Cherrie feels most alive Taking a step back to understand if she's taking realistic stock of her time and energy The challenge of getting sucked in to social media Ensuring that you're not being too hard on yourself How Cherrie cannot remember a time when she was not doing both art and writing Publishing her first work (a magazine that had her stories, poetry and art) and selling copies of it door-to-door when she was 9 years old in order to earn money to make a purchase Getting her Masters in Publishing at Western Colorado University and continuing the program in Genre fiction to get her MFA Seeing and representing herself as BOTH a writer and an illustrator Using C L Fors for both her art and her writing Learning that she has to "go with the flow" and use the time she has to approach her various tasks as an author, an illustrator, a wife, and a mother Advice that Cherrie would give her younger self How rejection is just a lesson What is next for Cherrie And more . . .

HOLLYWOOD - Lancaster, California artist Ms. C.L. Fors is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest and was honored along with ten other artists and twelve writers at the Taglyan Complex in Hollywood, California on April 10th. Her art is published along with the other writers' and illustrators' stories and art in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41 which was officially released on April 22nd 2025. CL Fors—Cherrie to her friends—was born to a mad-scientist and a mad-artist, so it's no surprise she's cultivated lifelong dual passions for art and science that shape her career in writing and illustrating science fiction and fantasy. Cherrie has lived all over the US and now calls the Southern California desert her home, where her family tethers are. She shares her life, love, and creative endeavors with her husband, four clever children, and beloved art family. Cherrie spent her early years obsessed with story and the many ways to tell it through drawing, writing, sculpting, and performing—sketching for hours, cobbling together ‘creatures' from whatever she could find in the back of junk-drawers, or staring into marbles and imagining she could step through into another world. Cherrie served in the military and raised a family, but she knew she had to find a way back to her creative path. In 2012, she made a commitment to write her stories and, over the next ten years, wrote, illustrated, and published four science fiction novels. She also began submitting short stories and illustrations to Writers and Illustrators of the Future Contests which she uses to strengthen her skills and as a goal-post to keep striving. Her ambition for the future is to find publishers for her finished manuscripts and finish her first graphic novel. You can find her work at www.clforsauthor.com and her Patreon, The Art of CL Fors: sci-fi, fantasy, bat-piggies, oh my! The Illustrators of the Future Contest judges include, Bob Eggleton (11 Chesley Awards and 9 Hugo Awards), Larry Elmore (Dungeons & Dragons book covers), Echo Chernik (graphic designs for major corporations including Celestial Seasonings tea packaging), Rob Prior (art for Spawn, Heavy Metal comics and Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Ciruelo (Eragon Coloring Book). HOLLYWOOD - Alexandria, Virginia author T.R. Naus is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest and was honored along with eleven other writers and eleven artists at the Taglyan Complex in Hollywood, California on April 10th. His story, "Storm Damage," is published along with the other writers' and illustrators' stories and art in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41 which was officially released on April 22nd 2025. T.R. Naus emerged from a love of exploration. He grew up traveling across Europe, Asia, and the United States as a military brat and a soldier in the US Army, developing a passion for wandering, adventures, and intriguing stories. His journey led him to experience fascinating cultures and subcultures, where he learned from inspiring people, but with each new encounter, he wondered how evolving technology impacts how we see ourselves and the communities around us. He eventually settled in Virginia with his wife and two daughters and turned to speculative fiction to express those anxieties-and hopes-about our future. The Contest, one of the most prestigious writing and illustrating competitions in the world, is currently in its 42nd year and is judged by some of the premier names in speculative fiction.

Bæjarstjórinn í Snæfellsbæ fagnar því að ráðherra hafi hlustað á varnaðarorð sveitarfélaga sem reiða sig á lítil og meðalstór sjávarútvegsfyrirtæki. Glæpir geta leitt til réttarhalda og dóma. En hvað ef meintur glæpur snýst um metnað og hörku við að gera syni sína að heimsfrægum afreksmönnum. Um þetta fjalla frægustu réttarhöld í Noregi á síðari tímum. Bræðurnir Ingebrigtsen bera Gjert, föður sinn og þjálfara, þungum sökum. Forsætisráðuneytið þurfti að ítreka við ráðherra að skila hagsmunaskráningu sinni og fæstir ráðherrar ríkisstjórnarinnar hafa uppfært sínar dagbækur þrátt fyrir að ákveðið hafi verið í febrúar að það ætti að gera.

Parkour pioneer Sébastien Foucan can be credited for bringing Parkour to the masses. His seminal UK documentary, 'Jump London' (2003) - and its follow up, 'Jump Britain' (2005) - sparked a cultural phenomenon which would see youngsters take to the streets in wild, acrobatic, hair-raising abandon; running, climbing and leaping across their urban environment in scenes we still see on our streets today. For Sébastien, a movie career followed, with stand-out roles in action films including 'Casino Royale' (2006) and 'The Tournament' (2009). Those perceptive enough to see the inspiration behind his incredible physical abilities and derring-do would be quick to reference the work of Jackie Chan, whose stunt-filled films would prove to be one of the early catalysts for Sébastien and his friends to take to the streets of Paris, recreating what they saw in his movies. Today, Sébastien is an inspirational speaker and CEO of the Foucan Academy, teaching kids the art of movement and self-expression. His motto: "we play".On this episode - recorded live at the Gulbenkian Arts Centre in Canterbury as part of the British Film Institute's Art of Action season - Sébastien explores his love of Hong Kong action cinema (especially the films of Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee), his experiences working in Hollywood, current attitudes towards Parkour, and much more. This conversation was recorded after a screening of the 1978 Jackie Chan classic, 'Drunken Master', and is co-hosted by the 'Life of Action' author - and friend of the show - Mike Fury. A huge thank you to the crew at the Gulbenkian and the people of Canterbury who attended the show, and the Independent Cinema Office and Film Hub South East for helping to organise the event.LINKSSébastien Foucan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sebastienfoucan/Sébastien Foucan on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Seb-Foucan/100010605671158/ Sébastien Foucan on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sebastien-foucan/ Sébastien Foucan website: https://www.sebastienfoucan.com/ Foucan Academy: https://foucanacademy.com/ 'Jump Britain' on YouTube: https://youtu.be/2TJurAP9l-Q?si=Abborgj9sRKdOKMN Chase scene from 'Casino Royale': https://youtu.be/iZxNbAwY_rk?si=9RvrgPTeoUWGT0GZ Sébastien Foucan on 'Ninja Warrior UK': https://youtu.be/o7YFOF1oeag?si=hjKZ23vx9DT-6S-k Mike Fury on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themikefury/Mike Fury's website: https://www.mikefury.net/'Drunken Master' review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/DrunkenMasterKFMG'Drunken Master' trailer: https://youtu.be/WSu-9X8NF9k?si=BNVVYygZ7Ke_VdYpBuy 'Drunken Master' on Blu-ray: https://eurekavideo.co.uk/movie/drunken-master/Visit the Gulbenkian Arts Centre in Canterbury: https://thegulbenkian.co.uk/Learn more about the BFI's Art of Action season: https://www.bfi.org.uk/art-actionA huge thank you to Independent Cinema Office (https://www.independentcinemaoffice.org.uk/) and Film Hub South East (https://www.independentcinemaoffice.org.uk/film-hub-south-east/) Hosted on Acast.

I denne episode af RumSnak har vi besøgt Teknologisk Institut i Tåstrup, hvor man dyrker mikroalger, der skal undersøges på Den Internationale Rumstation (ISS). Projektet går ud på at lave forsøg med en særlig stamme af Chlorella Vulgaris-alger i vægtløs tilstand i en såkaldt 'science shell', et simpelt mobillaboratorium, der netop i disse uger er på vej til ISS. Forsøget er en del af det ESA-finansierede projekt Sophonster, og involverer også Sophie's BioNutrients og Yuri Gravity. Anne Christine Hastrup fra TI fortæller om bioressourcer, og mikroalge-specialist Nikola Medic forklarer, hvordan mikroalgerne kan have potentiale inden for fødevarer, CO2-fangst, og meget mere. Selve eksperimentet er relativt enkelt. Det handler om at lade mikroalgerne vokse i den lille science shell i 20 dage, og bagefter se om vægtløsheden og strålingen i rummet lader til at have haft en indflydelse på væksten og på om der er kommet nogle interessante mutationer ud af prøven. I de korte rumnyheder fortæller vi om James Webb-observationer af det tidlige univers, og en mulig mission til Merkur. Lyt med

Kristrún Frostadóttir forsætisráðherra ræddi í dag við forystu Evrópusambandsins um tollamál og hvernig Ísland gæti komist hjá því að lenda á milli í tollastríði Evrópu og Bandaríkjanna. Hún segir að sín skilaboð hafi komist skýrt og milliliðalaust til skila. Kristrún hefur áhyggjur af áhrifum þess á íslenskan útflutning ef ESB bregst hart við því ef vörur sem ekki eigi greiða leið inn á Bandaríkjamarkað flæði inn á þann Evrópska. Skipulögð glæpastarfsemi hefur náð að festa hér rætur og birtist með ýmsum hætti. Þingmennirnir Guðrún Hafsteinsdóttir og Grímur Grímsson ræddu um hvernig bregðast megi við. Þau telja bæði að styrkja þurfi heimildir lögreglu til afbrotavarna.

Framkvæmdir og viðgerðir á forsætisráðherrabústaðnum á Þingvöllum kostuðu 609 milljónir. Þegar framkvæmdir hófust haustið 2021 áttu þær aðeins að standa í nokkra mánuði - en þeim lauk ekki fyrr en síðasta sumar. Tillögur um Borgarstefnu Íslands hafa færst verulega frá þeirri upphaflegu framtíðarsýn að Akureyri verði svæðisborg. Þetta er álit lektors við Háskólann á Akureyri.

Forsætisráðherra heyrði af orðrómi skömmu fyrir fund leiðtoga ríkisstjórnarinnar á fimmtudag að fyrrverandi menntamálaráðherra hefði bæði hringt og heimsótt konu í Kópavogi sem sagði ráðherra hafa eignast barn með unglingspilti fyrir rúmum þremur áratugum. Mennta- og barnamálaráðherra gekkst við þessari hegðun á krísufundi með formönnunum skömmu síðar. Þetta staðfestir forsætisráðuneytið. Ágangi bandarískra stjórnvalda gagnvart Grænlandi linnir ekki, þrátt fyrir samstöðu Grænlendinga, þrátt fyrir að þrýstingur Bandaríkjanna sé löngu ljós og viðbrögð eftir diplómatískum leiðum stoða ekki heldur, sagði Múte B. Egede formaður Inuit Ata-qa-ti-git í gær. Alþjóðasamfélagið verði að bregðast við. Það er tiltölulega nýlega orðið refsivert að beita einhvern svokölluðu umsáturseinelti - það sem á ensku hefur verið kallað stalker. Almenn deild lögreglunnar fer með rannsókn þessara mála á höfuðborgarsvæðinu og þau eru núna um 80. Í þessum 80 málum eru fimmtíu og fjórir með réttarstöðu sakbornings og brotin sem þeir eru grunaðir um að hafa framið eru 90. Tólf sakborningar eru grunaðir um fleiri en eitt brot. Linda Dröfn Gunnarsdóttir framkvæmdastýra Kvennaathvarfsins segir eriftt að alhæfa um hvort umsáturseinelti sé bein afleiðing af ofbeldissambandi.

I veckans avsnitt av ”Så in i Själen” så har jag bjudit in Ingela Fors. Ingela har i tjugo års tid handlett utifrån ett Medvetet Bemötande. Medvetet Bemötande är ett pedagogiskt redskap som tränar och ökar självkännedom i hur vi kommunicerar - till exempel vilka ord vi använder, tonläge, kroppsspråk, tempo och närvaro. Här handlar det om att bli mer Observant på vem, och hur, man själv är i ett möte, och vem och hur den man möter är?Vad behöver man justera i sin kommunikation för att kunna möta andra på ett medvetet sätt?Ingelas passion och engagemang för bemötande startade när hon arbetade som specialpedagog, under nittiotalet. Hon observerade olikheterna i möten. Frågorna väcktes i hur vi påverkar varandra och hur vi medvetet kan gå varandra tillmötes, bygga broar mellan våra olikheter och mellan våra hjärtan. Varmt välkomna till ett samtal om Medvetet Bemötande i ”Så in i Själen”. Producerat av Silverdrake Förlagwww.silverdrakeforlag.seRedaktör: Marcus Tigerdraakemarcus@silverdrakeforlag.seKlipp: Victoria Tigerdraake,victoria.tigerdraake@gmail.com Följ denna länk för att del av Så in Själens första ljudbok, samt välja att lyssna på podden reklamfritt, få tillgång till avsnitten och hela intervjuserier tidigare. https://plus.acast.com/s/sa-in-i-sjalen.

Han indførte morgensang og serverede kaffe på sengen til patienterne. Han talte for mindre brug af tvang og for en mere holistisk tilgang til de psykisk syge patienter. Udadtil lignede overlægen og hans afdeling en succes, men sidste år kommer det frem, at både patienter, kolleger og pårørende har været dybt bekymrede for hans behandling og linje. Og næsten 30 klager og bekymrede henvendelser er tikket ind over ham gennem årene, uden det har fået konsekvenser. Det ændrer sig, da en whistleblower henvender sig til Region Midtjylland sidste år. Overlægen bliver fyret og politianmeldt, og 1600 patienter bliver vejledt i, hvordan de kan søge om erstatning. Nu er afgørelsen faldet i de to første sager, og imens den ene afvises, så finder man i den anden, at et selvmord med overvejende sandsynlighed kunne være undgået. I dagens udsendelse fortæller DRs sundhedsanalytiker Anders Heissel om overlægen fra Afsnit C. Vært: Anna Ingrisch. Program publiceret i DR Lyd d. 17. marts 2025.

Aanvankelijk werd voor het eerste kwartaal van dit jaar nog een economische groei van bijna 4 procent in de Verenigde Staten verwacht. Maar die verwachting is volledig omgeslagen: inmiddels zien economen juist een krimp van bijna 3 procent. ‘Dat is een verschuiving van maar liefst zeven procentpunt, en dat is zeker niet niks’, zegt macro-econoom Edin Mujagic. In het kader hiervan wil je het hebben over de GDP Nowcast van de Atlanta Fed? Ja, maar laat ik eerst even uitleggen wat het precies is. De vraag hoeveel een economie is gegroeid, houdt economen en analisten natuurlijk sterk bezig. Maar het probleem is dat we vaak pas maanden later weten hoe groot die groei daadwerkelijk was in een bepaald kwartaal. Om dat op te lossen, heeft een van de regionale centrale banken in de Verenigde Staten, de Atlanta Fed, een methode ontwikkeld: de GDP Nowcast. Dit is geen voorspelling, maar een 'nowcast'. Ze proberen bijna in real-time in te schatten hoe de economie zich in het lopende kwartaal ontwikkelt. Dat is ontzettend waardevol, omdat het direct inzicht geeft in de economische dynamiek. Maar af en toe, zoals nu, zorgt het ook voor slapeloze nachten. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lancaster, California artist CL Fors is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest earning her a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and her winning art will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. CL Fors—Cherrie to her friends—was born to a mad-scientist and a mad-artist, so it's no surprise she's cultivated lifelong dual passions for art and science that shape her career in writing and illustrating science fiction and fantasy. Cherrie has lived all over the US and now calls the Southern California desert her home, where her family tethers are. She shares her life, love, and creative endeavors with her husband, four clever children, and beloved art family. Marina, California writer Robert F. Lowell is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest earning him a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and his winning story will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. Robert F. Lowell's complicated relationship with reality began when he was born between two movie studios in Burbank, California. In previous professional lives he researched and wrote about international relations, weapons of mass destruction, and terrorism. He taught at universities in the U.S., Costa Rica, and Switzerland and was kissed by a dancing horse in Siberia. Now he expands the universe of online learning as an instructional systems designer and writes about swords, sorcery, robots, aliens, and magic rabbits as a member of the Wulf Pack writer's group. He, his wife, and at least one dog live in a town with very expensive weather on California's Central Coast and travel in search of enchantment. Step into his universe at www.worldsofrobertflowell.com. Broomall, Pennsylvania artist David Hoffrichter is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest earning him a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and his winning art will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. David grew up in Broomall PA, right outside of Philadelphia and not too far from several museums that would direct his love of illustration for the rest of his life. David was raised on adventure stories, magical tales of Lions, Dwarves, Elves, and heroes of all ages. The one thing these stories had in common were amazing pictures illustrated by artists who lived very close to where David first learned to love art. From N.C. Wyeth, Howard Pyle, and Jessie Wilcox Smith, to the artistic legends who are alive today. Still brightening the world with every brushstroke they make, David revels in his appreciation of art and how it has shaped his foundation from an early age. Mesa, Arizona writers Ian Keith is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest earning him a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and his winning story will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. Ian Keith went to philosophy school to learn how to tell the truth, and to law school to learn how to tailor a story to suit any set of appearances. Both trainings have helped him to write fiction, about equally. He lives with his partner and their two children in the Phoenix area, where he works as a ghostwriter. “Blackbird Stone” is his first professional publication.

In the next Congress, Republican lawmakers, who now control the White House and Capitol Hill, will attempt to pass a majority of their agenda through the reconciliation process. Navigating thin majorities in the House and Senate, legislators will look for funding sources to pay for new policies, including tax relief for millions of Americans and their businesses. In this conversation, Brownstein Shareholders Russ Sullivan and Rosemary Becchi talk about where members of Congress may look to off-set their revenue reduction plans.

Þórunn Elísabet Bogadóttir og Björn Þór Sigbjörnsson ræddu erlend málefni við Boga Ágústsson eins og jafnan á fimmtudagsmorgnum á Morgunvaktinni. Samið hefur verið um vopnahlé á Gaza eftir grimmdarleg átök, þar sem talið er að nærri 50 þúsund Palestínumenn hafi beðið bana og á annað þúsund Ísraelsmenn. Forsætisráðherra Dana ræddi í síma í gær við verðandi Bandaríkjaforseta og lagði áherslu á að Grænlendingar ættu að ráða eigin framtíð. Leynistríð Rússa gegn vestrænum ríkjum var til umræðu. Ríki við Eystrasalt hafa miklar áhyggjur af skemmdarverkum á neðansjávarköplum. Þau ætla að stórefla gæslu á Eystrasalti gegn svokölluðum skuggaflota Rússa. Finnar handtóku áhöfn skips úr þeim flota, Eagle S. Allt bendir til þess að skipverjar hafi dregið akkeri yfir kapla á milli Eistlands og Finnlands. Verkamannaflokkurinn vann stórsigur í þingkosningum á Bretlandi í fyrra. Hálfu ári síðar hefur flokkurinn misst traust stórs hluta kjósenda sinna og á undir högg að sækja. Í gær þurfti ráðherra að segja af sér vegna mögulegra tengsla við spillingarmál í Bangladess. Þykir háðulegt að ráðherrann bar ábyrgð á baráttu gegn spillingu í bresku stjórninni.

Can all of 2025 be like that please? The year of On The Ball podcasts had no other option but to get off to a cracking start after the pandemonium at Carrow Road on Saturday, Amankwah Forson's two injury-time goals completing a miraculous 2-1 win over Coventry. Steve Sanders, Zoe Morgan and Dan Brigham relive a crazy five minutes and salute a new hero, try and make sense of that Onel assist, and take delight in throwing caution to the wind. Plus catching up on the Christmas backlog, featuring plenty of praise for Marcelino Nunez and Shane Duffy. And there's still time for Godfrey in the bad books, a not-so-fond farewell to Barnes and Fassnacht, some farming fun, spitting madness and which Norwich City players you could lift. 2025 has well and truly begun!
