I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. It's world diabetes day! It is marked every year on 14 November, the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, who co-discovered insulin along with Charles Best in 1922. WDD was created in 1991 by International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the World Health Organization and became an official United Nations Day in 2006 with the passage of United Nations Resolution 61/225. There will be a ton of stuff in your feeds today and that's great! I'm going to keep this to a pretty normal in the news episode.. although I do have my own World Diabetes Day announcement – I want YOUR community commercials. You could have an ad for your event or your blog or your project right here! There's a post on the website explaining it all and I'll come back at the end of the episode and tell you more. XX The Primary Oral Insulin Trial (POInT) is the first large-scale clinical trial to test whether giving at-risk children daily oral insulin could prevent or delay type 1 diabetes (T1D). Conducted by researchers from Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich across five European countries, the study enrolled more than 1,000 children with a genetic risk for T1D. Results published in The Lancet show that while oral insulin did not prevent the development of islet autoantibodies—an early sign of diabetes—it was safe and well tolerated. Importantly, researchers found that some children who received oral insulin developed diabetes more slowly than those given a placebo, suggesting potential protective effects in certain genetic subgroups. Further analysis revealed that the response to treatment depended on the child's insulin gene variant. Children with genetic versions that raise diabetes risk appeared to benefit, showing delayed onset of the disease, while those without the risk variant did not. These findings point toward a future of personalized prevention, where genetic screening could help identify which children might benefit most from oral insulin. Researchers will continue following the participants until age 12 to assess long-term effects. The study marks a major milestone in decades of diabetes prevention research, highlighting both the promise and complexity of developing tailored, early interventions against type 1 diabetes. XX Joint US-Chinese research looking at generating new beta cells from stomach cells. Upon turning on the "genetic switch," the human stomach cells were converted to insulin-secreting cells within the mice and resembled pancreatic beta cells with respect to gene and protein expression. Encouragingly, when those experiments were done with diabetic mice, insulin secreted from the transformed human cells helped control blood sugar levels and ameliorated diabetes. The scientists hope that a similar approach can be taken to convert cells from a patient's own stomach into insulin-secreting cells directly within the body. Importantly, additional studies are needed to address if this approach is safe and effective to be used in patients. https://www.technologynetworks.com/cell-science/news/human-stomach-cells-tweaked-to-make-insulin-406694 XX A new study in Nature Metabolism may help explain why children born to mothers with type 1 diabetes are less likely to develop the disease early in life compared to those whose fathers or siblings have it. Researchers looked at nearly 2,000 mothers and their children and found that kids whose moms have type 1 diabetes show changes in their DNA that may actually help protect them. These aren't genetic mutations, but epigenetic changes — chemical tags that turn certain genes on or off. The study found these changes in genes tied to the immune system and type 1 diabetes risk, suggesting that a mother's condition during pregnancy can shape her child's immune response in a protective way. Scientists identified more than 500 areas of DNA where these changes occurred, many in regions that control how the body's immune system works. Most of the changes appeared to calm down the kind of overactive immune response that leads to type 1 diabetes. Researchers even created a "methylation score" to help measure this protective effect. They say the next step is to confirm these results in more diverse groups and figure out exactly how these DNA changes help prevent early diabetes. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20251110/Maternal-type-1-diabetes-may-protect-children-from-developing-the-disease.aspx XX A new study from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University reveals that sons born to mothers with type 1 diabetes may develop early vascular dysfunction—independently of metabolic health. The finding may help shape future strategies to prevent cardiovascular disease early in life. Children of women with type 1 diabetes are known to be at increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. This new study, published in Cell Reports Medicine, is the first to show that the risk is linked to early dysfunction in blood vessel cells in sons, even before any metabolic issues arise. The team is now investigating the long-term effects of maternal diabetes, with a particular focus on why sons seem to be affected earlier than daughters. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-11-sons-mothers-diabetes-early-vascular.html XX A new study presented at Kidney Week 2025 has shown that the drug finn-uh-near-own a nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonist, significantly reduced albuminuria—a key marker of kidney damage—in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). This is the first major breakthrough for this population in more than 30 years. Researchers found that patients taking finerenone saw a 25% average reduction in albuminuria compared to placebo, an improvement that suggests a lower long-term risk for dialysis or kidney transplant. The phase 3 FINE-ONE trial involved 242 adults with T1D and CKD, and results showed benefits as early as three months. The drug was generally well tolerated, with side effects similar to those seen in patients with type 2 diabetes, though mild hyperkalemia (high potassium levels) was slightly more common. Experts say the findings could change the way doctors treat kidney complications in type 1 diabetes, an area that hasn't seen new therapies since the early 1990s. Currently, treatment options rely on blood pressure and blood sugar management, along with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors. Finerenone, which is already approved for type 2 diabetes-related CKD, targets overactivation of a receptor that drives kidney damage. Based on these results, Bayer plans to seek FDA approval in 2026 for use in people with T1D and CKD. Researchers and clinicians alike are calling the study "groundbreaking," noting that it opens the door to future research on how finerenone might not just slow kidney decline—but possibly prevent it altogether. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/finerenone-offers-hope-kidney-disease-type-1-diabetes-2025a1000uzi?form=login XX This week, Tandem Diabetes Care (Nasdaq:TNDM) announced a major milestone for its Mobi miniature durable insulin pump system. San Diego-based Tandem revealed that it received FDA approval for the Android version of its Mobi mobile app. Clearance brings Mobi — which the company describes as the world's smallest, durable automated insulin delivery system — to more users. The pump, which pairs with Tandem's Control-IQ+ algorithm, previously worked with iOS software. Tandem — one of the largest diabetes tech companies in the world — expects to begin a limited rollout next month, followed by full commercial availability in early 2026. This marks the latest milestone for the company, which continues to expand its offerings and widen its reach within the diabetes patient population. We had a great interview with Tandem on our previous episode, but as I said at the time, it was coming before their earnings call. So here's an update: The company plans to submit the tubeless mobi to the fda before the end of this year.. possible approval and shipping date is hoped for by middle of 2026. Trials for their fully closed loop next-generation algorithm which we tlkaed abou ton the show should be launched in 2026 The Sigi patch pump will be developed and launched as a next-generation version of the Mobi Great job by Dr. David ? Ahn – he posted on IG after getting a message from tandem CEO John Sheridan? 1. First, the Tandem X3 *is* still absolutely in development, contrary to my speculation In yesterday's video. As many of you appropriately pointed out, there is definitely a market for a 300 unit pump, a pump with a screen, and a pump that does not require smartphone control. So from our brief chat, the sense I got that is that the X3 would be more of a refresh of the X2 with newer components, such as a USB-C connector and better memory, rather than a total redesign from the ground up. In terms of timing, all I could get was that it was "not too far distant in the future," which could mean anything I guess, but at least it's still on the way! 2. Next up, he also reassured me that they are working closely with Dexcom to support the G7 15 Day sensor within the next few months. I suspected as much, but it's always good to hear confirmation. 3. Lastly, he did confirm that Tandem is far along in developing a Caregiver/Follow app to allow the remote viewing of glucose and insulin data from a Tandem pump. He explained that it will be based on Sugarmate, the popular diabetes data dashboard app that Tandem acquired back in Jun 2020. While I don't know if every feature will make it into the Tandem caregiver app, Sugarmate is well-liked for its highly customizable dashboard and highly configurable alerts. Sugarmate even has the option to send a text message or phone call for urgent lows. Regardless, a true follow/Caregiver app will be welcomed with open arms by all caregivers and Tandem users who use Libre 3 Plus. https://time.com/7318020/worlds-top-healthtech-companies-2025/ XX Senseonics submits Eversense 365 – their year long implantable CGM for a CE mark, European Approval and expect to launch there soon. Eversense will be integrated with the sequel twist pump – again I'm hearing soon but no timeline. Intersting to note that one year inseration was approved in the US just about a year ago, so the first patients will be having their CGMs changed out – for the first time – pretty soon. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/senseonics-q2-2025-sales-beat-ce-mark/ XX A confusing study out of Rutgers - these researcher say metformin reduces some of the key benefits normally gained from regular physical activity. These include improvements in blood vessel health, physical fitness, and the body's ability to regulate blood sugar. Since 2006, doctors have typically encouraged patients with elevated blood sugar levels to combine metformin with exercise, expecting that the two proven treatments would produce stronger results together. However, the new research suggests this may not be the case. In this study, Exercise alone improved vascular insulin sensitivity, meaning blood vessels responded better to insulin and allowed more blood flow to muscles. This matters because insulin's ability to open blood vessels helps shuttle glucose out of the bloodstream and into tissues, lowering blood sugar after meals. But when metformin was added, the improvements shrank. The drug also diminished gains in aerobic fitness and reduced the positive effects on inflammation and fasting glucose. The findings don't mean people should stop taking metformin or exercising, Malin said. Instead, it raises urgent questions for doctors about how the two treatments can be combined and the need for close monitoring. Malin hopes future research will uncover strategies that preserve the benefits of both. https://scitechdaily.com/popular-diabetes-drug-metformin-may-cancel-out-exercise-benefits-study-warns/ XX XX https://www.medtechdive.com/news/Revvity-Sanofi-diabetes-test-Kihealth-seed-round/802133/ XX Dexcom recalled an Android app for its G6 glucose sensor due to a software problem that could cause the app to terminate unexpectedly. The issue could cause users to miss alarms, alerts or notifications related to estimated glucose values, according to a Food and Drug Administration database entry posted Oct. 30. The glucose sensor and the app are still available, but Dexcom required users to update the app to a new version. Dexcom began the recall on Aug. 28. The FDA designated the event as a Class 1 recall, the most serious kind. Dexcom sent a notification to customers in September about the software bug, which applies to version 1.15 of the G6 Android app. To use the app, customers must update it to a new version, according to the entry. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/dexcom-recall-g6-cgm-app/804630/ XX https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/automated-insulin-delivery-boosts-glycemic-control-youth-2025a1000ub3 XX Tidepool partners with smart ring maker OURA.. press release says: to support a groundbreaking dataset intended to be broadly available for diabetes research, with participation limited to individuals who opt in through Tidepool. Tidepool will pair biometric data from Oura Ring – sleep, activity, heart rate, temperature trends, and menstrual cycles – with diabetes device data, including continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) and insulin pumps. The result will provide researchers with an unprecedented dataset to accelerate the development of new clinical guidelines, next-generation diabetes technology, and personalized care models. Recruitment is expected to launch in early 2026 through an IRB-approved study. By opting in to this study, participants consent to sharing their data with Tidepool's Big Data Donation Project, where data is de-identified and, with participant consent, shared with academics, researchers, and industry innovators to accelerate diabetes research. https://aijourn.com/tidepool-collaborates-with-oura-to-advance-inclusive-diabetes-research-through-wearables/ XX Eli Lilly launches two new clinical trials for baricitinib. These phase 3 trials will investigate whether the drug can delay T1D onset or progression and will open for recruitment soon. Baricitinib has the potential to extend the "honeymoon period" of T1D, meaning that it could preserve remaining insulin-producing beta cells earlier in disease progression. More beta cells mean better blood sugar management—and potentially reduced long-term complications. JAK inhibitors, including baricitinib, are already FDA-approved for other autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, alopecia, and more. JAK signaling pathways are associated with overactive immune responses, so blocking this pathway may turn down the immune response. The phase 2 Breakthrough T1D-funded BANDIT study was key in showing that this drug is safe and effective in T1D. Importantly, baricitinib is a once-daily oral pill—meaning its use is simple and easy. https://www.breakthrought1d.org/news-and-updates/two-new-trials-baricitinib-to-delay-t1d/ XX Insulet is taking diabetes awareness into the workplace. Having found 79% of people with diabetes have faced bias or misunderstanding at work, the medtech giant is rolling out a range of resources intended to trigger changes in how workplaces approach the condition. Lots going on for Diabetes Awareness month.. some notables.. Insulet's "The Day Diabetes Showed up to Work" campaign. based on a survey of almost 10,000 people 79% of people with diabetes have faced bias or misunderstanding at work,. Almost 90% of people with diabetes surveyed reported experiencing barriers at work due to their condition, and more than 40% of people with diabetes and caregivers said they have workplace-related anxiety tied to the metabolic disease. Around one-quarter of respondents reported fears that diabetes could limit opportunities or lead to workplace discrimination and judgment, and a similar proportion of people said they conceal their condition. https://www.fiercepharma.com/marketing/widespread-workplace-challenges-people-diabetes-spark-insulet-campaign XX New directive issued by the Trump administration could mean people seeking visas to live in the U.S. might be rejected if they have certain medical conditions, including diabetes or obesity. The guidance, issued in a cable the State Department sent to embassy and consular officials and examined by KFF Health News, directs visa officers to deem applicants ineligible to enter the U.S. for several new reasons, including age or the likelihood they might rely on public benefits. The guidance says that such people could become a "public charge" — a potential drain on U.S. resources — because of their health issues or age. The cable's language appears at odds with the Foreign Affairs Manual, the State Department's own handbook, which says that visa officers cannot reject an application based on "what if" scenarios, Wheeler said. The guidance directs visa officers to develop "their own thoughts about what could lead to some sort of medical emergency or sort of medical costs in the future," he said. "That's troubling because they're not medically trained, they have no experience in this area, and they shouldn't be making projections based on their own personal knowledge or bias." Immigrants already undergo a medical exam by a physician who's been approved by a U.S. embassy. https://www.npr.org/2025/11/12/nx-s1-5606348/immigrants-visas-health-conditions-trump-guidance XX SAN DIEGO---Nov. 14, 2025—DexCom, Inc. (NASDAQ: DXCM), the global leader in glucose biosensing, today unveiled 16 new diabetes advocates to represent people living with diabetes globally as part of Dexcom's World Diabetes Day campaign. The advocates – ranging from ages six to 68, spanning various types of diabetes, and hailing from four continents and five countries – were selected from 1,000 open call submissions based on their experiences advocating for people with diabetes in their communities. While each person's experience with diabetes is unique, they share a common passion for advocacy – and use of Dexcom's glucose biosensing technology. "Through advocacy, I strive to show others, especially children and newly diagnosed patients, that diabetes is not a limitation but an opportunity to grow stronger, inspire resilience and pursue ambitious goals," said Maria Alejandra Jove Valerio, one of Dexcom's new advocates. "What began as a diagnosis at age seven has grown into a lifelong mission to uplift others." This effort represents the first time Dexcom has sourced voices from the broader diabetes community specifically for its World Diabetes Day campaign, reinforcing Dexcom's history of and commitment to giving real people with diabetes a platform to share their story on a global stage. Through engaging, editorial-style portraits and deeply personal stories, the campaign highlights each advocate's personal experience with diabetes, what misconceptions about diabetes they'd like to dispel and how they want to inspire others with diabetes to discover what they're made of. To prepare for the spotlight, the group of advocates met in Los Angeles for a World Diabetes Day photoshoot which included a surprise visit from Grammy-nominated artist, actor, producer and Dexcom Warrior Lance Bass and author, producer, actress and Stelo*Ambassador Retta. This visit offered the advocates an opportunity to exchange stories and personal perspectives on the meaning of diabetes advocacy and how they live it each day. Behind the lens at the shoot was another member of the diabetes community—photographer Tommy Lundberg who lives with Type 1 diabetes. "Directing this photoshoot was nothing short of inspiring. Each of these advocates has a unique an XX On what would have been the 100th birthday of its visionary founder Alfred E. Mann, MannKind Corporation (Nasdaq: MNKD), in partnership with Alfred E. Mann Charities and The Diabetes Link, announced the launch of the Centennial Al Mann Scholarship. The new program will distribute $100,000 in scholarship funds to support at least 10 young adult students living with diabetes as they pursue higher education in life sciences. Launched in Diabetes Awareness Month, the scholarship program honors Alfred E. Mann's enduring legacy of innovation, philanthropy, and his lifelong commitment to improving the quality of human life through medical advancement. Deeply passionate about giving back, Mr. Mann believed that his success should continue to serve humanity long after his passing, a belief that lives on through this initiative. Each scholarship recipient will be awarded up to $10,000, distributed in annual installments of $2,500 throughout the course of their studies. Depending on the length of their degree program, recipients may receive between two and four installments (up to the full $10,000 per student). The first awards will be made for the 2026 academic year. "Al Mann dedicated his life to helping people with serious medical conditions live longer, healthier lives. This scholarship is a reflection of that spirit," said Michael Castagna, PharmD, Chief Executive Officer of MannKind Corporation. "By supporting students living with diabetes who are pursuing careers in the life sciences and adjacent fields, we're honoring Al's legacy and investing in the future of innovation and care.

12 novembre. Il valico di Zikim è stato riaperto per far entrare aiuti umanitari nel nord della Striscia. Israele lo definisce un segnale di fiducia, ma nello stesso momento riprendono i bombardamenti su Beit Lahiya e Jabalia. Secondo la BBC, oltre millecinquecento edifici sono stati demoliti durante la tregua. La pace, nei comunicati, resta un verbo al futuro. L'Unicef denuncia un milione di siringhe bloccate ai valichi e cinquemila bambini in attesa di cure. A passare sono solo i carichi “approvati”, mentre Singapore invia cento protesi per amputati: un gesto simbolico in un sistema sanitario che non riesce più a operare. La retorica della ricostruzione arriva prima della possibilità di curarsi. Intanto Israele approva una legge che consente di oscurare media stranieri e chiudere redazioni considerate “ostili”. Gaza resta sigillata anche per l'informazione. Fnsi, Ordine dei Giornalisti e Movimento Giustizia e Pace chiedono all'Europa di intervenire: quasi trecento reporter palestinesi sono stati uccisi dall'inizio della guerra. Alessandra Costante avverte: «Non vogliamo colonizzare la notizia, vogliamo verificarla». In Cisgiordania, coloni mascherati attaccano villaggi nell'area di Tulkarem.

La stessa parola che il G7 in Canada usa per definire la regione, mentre Il Cairo e Ankara discutono di una forza di stabilizzazione. Tajani rivendica il ruolo dell'Italia nella ricostruzione, ma sul terreno la tregua continua a produrre macerie. In Israele esplode la polemica per la chiusura della radio delle Forze armate decisa dal ministro Katz, mentre Trump scrive a Herzog chiedendo la grazia per Netanyahu.

In November 1975, a summit took place at Rambouillet, France, where the heads of six of the world's most industrialised nations and their finance ministers came together. The leaders of the US, France, Germany, Britain, Japan and Italy hoped to solve the ongoing economic crisis. The summit marked the birth of an institution now known as the G7. France's former Finance Minister, Jean-Pierre Fourcade, was at the conference. He speaks to Ben Henderson. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

O Brasil acolhe desde esta segunda-feira a 30a Conferência das Nações Unidas sobre o clima. O economista guineense Carlos Lopes é o enviado especial do evento para África, por decisão do chefe de Estado brasileiro, Lula da Silva. Este também docente universitário na cidade sul-africana do Cabo está, em Belém do Pará para esta COP30. Carlos Lopes, enviado especial da COP30 para África, e economista guineense, começa por nos revelar em que consiste a sua tarefa nesta cimeira. Somos sete para as regiões consideradas pelo Brasil como estratégicas para a discussão climática. No que me toca, eu responsabilizo-me pela África. Estive envolvido na Organização da Cúpula Africana do Clima, que teve lugar em Adis Abeba há cerca de um mês e, portanto, faço a ponte entre as lideranças africanas e a presidência brasileira para poder fazer com que esta COP ouça melhor cada uma das regiões. No meu caso, a África, mas também possa, digamos, articular as várias conexões que são necessárias para negociações desta natureza, que são sempre muito complexas. E é sempre o mesmo chavão. Mas, ao fim ao cabo, um chavão acertado em relação à realidade, ou seja, um continente que padece sobremaneira das alterações climáticas e que pouco polui. Esta constatação continua a ser válida em 2025, na COP de Belém em relação a África ? Sim, eu penso que nós temos agora até uma narrativa mais forte sobre o facto de regiões como a África precisarem de muito mais foco nos problemas de adaptação climática... E menos na mitigação, que normalmente domina os debates. E isso graças ao Brasil, digamos, ter também a mesma preocupação e estar orientada na mesma direcção. Portanto, o Brasil oferece à África essa possibilidade de maior concentração na adaptação, que é, de facto, o que nos interessa. Fala-se muito em perdas e danos, precisamente em mitigação. O que é que se pode esperar em relação a esse prisma, sendo que houve já anúncios feitos desde a pré-COP e agora o início da COP propriamente dita... por exemplo, o lançamento do Fundo de Florestas Tropicais para sempre. Na prática, há já avanços aí a registar ? Na realidade, é o único fundo novo que aparece nesta COP porque a presidência brasileira quis dar ênfase à implementação e não a novos acordos. Mas tratando-se de uma COP que tem lugar numa zona que é considerada a maior floresta mundial, achou oportuno que se lançasse, digamos, uma iniciativa particularmente orientada para as florestas tropicais e centrada sobretudo na protecção de três grandes zonas do planeta, que são a principal reserva florestal que é a Amazónia, a África, na Bacia do Congo e também a Indonésia e o Sudeste Asiático. E, portanto, a inovação desse fundo é que ele tem características um pouco diferentes de tudo o que foi até agora lançado na COP, porque é um fundo para pagar aquilo que já existe e não para fazer coisas. Portanto, é para permitir a protecção da floresta existente, e com uma ênfase também nas populações locais: as populações indígenas, as comunidades locais, a quem será reservada a 20% da utilização dos fundos apropriados. E com, digamos, características que são menos de compensação, e que são mais de aposta e investimento no futuro através da conservação. Portanto, têm de facto uma inovação muito grande. É importante sublinhar que o Fundo já está, digamos, com contribuições anunciadas importantes, sendo que dos 5 biliões que foram anunciados, cerca de três são da Noruega, que é o país que toma a dianteira e vai muito para além até das expectativas que se poderia ter nesta etapa da discussão. E há, digamos, uma adesão muito importante neste momento política para a criação desse fundo. Como é que é o ambiente aí, sendo que, uma vez mais, os Estados Unidos ficam de fora? É claro que já não é uma novidade. Em que medida é que o "climato-cepticismo", por assim dizer, continua a pairar como uma sombra sobre as negociações da COP? As negociações deste ano não são tão importantes porque não se trata de conseguir mais. Há um mapa do caminho, como se chama, de Baku para Belém, que foi definido na COP 29 e que é o assunto principal de negociações. E à volta de quais são os montantes de financiamento que até agora não foram cumpridos, e qual é o nível de ambição que se tem que acrescentar em matéria de financiamento climático? Mas, para além disso, as outras discussões estão mais ou menos alinhavadas. Não vai haver grandes controvérsias. A ausência dos Estados Unidos vai-se fazer sentir em termos de resultados, porque não é só o facto de os Estados Unidos estarem ausentes do debate climático. É a importância que tem indirecta nos comportamentos, equipamentos, por exemplo, corporativos, regulatórios. O facto de, por exemplo, os financiamentos privados estarem muito orientados pelas preocupações da principal bolsa de valores que é a Bolsa de Valores de Nova Iorque e, portanto, acaba por ter resultados indirectos muito negativos e que vão muito para além de os Estados Unidos propriamente ditos fazerem ou não fazerem o necessário. Que olhar é que se pode ter acerca da proposta da economista francesa Esther Duflo, que apresenta uma solução original e na COP 30 de Belém, com o economista indiano Abhijit Banerjee, que é o seu esposo, que ganhou com ela o Prémio Nobel da Economia em 2019, mais o economista americano Michael Greenstone, que foi conselheiro de Barack Obama ? Eles estão a propor um sistema de transferências de dinheiro em troca de acções ambientais. Acha que este sistema pode ter pernas para andar? Eles propõem um esquema em que os países ricos se comprometem a arrecadar fundos e a enviá-los directamente às entidades, às pessoas para as ajudar a se proteger contra os excessos do clima na forma de transferências financeiras ? Digamos que não é tão original. Tem a ver com as várias iniciativas para regular de uma forma ética, a emergência de um mercado de carbono. Eu sou defensor de que, no caso da África, nós precisamos ter um mercado de carbono regulado pelos africanos e liderado pelo Banco Africano de Desenvolvimento, porque é assim que nós podemos contornar o facto de que do exterior se faz a certificação, se faz a taxonomia, se faz, digamos, o controlo daquilo que é verde e do que não é verde, o que é o bom e o mau carbono e qual é o valor do carbono? Portanto, isto não são coisas que podem ser decididas por outrém, devem ser decididas por aqueles que detém, de facto, uma espécie de crédito histórico de carbono que não contribuíram para o problema e estão a sofrer mais do que os outros. E, portanto, é necessário poder de facto, conseguir transferir aquilo que nós consideramos como problema, que é o problema da dívida de um aspecto financeiro para um aspecto de carbono. É adquirido, portanto, que não se consegue cumprir a meta de um máximo de 1,5 graus de aquecimento do planeta. Já se está a trabalhar num patamar superior: de menos de dois graus e meio do aquecimento, é assim ? É de 2,4 graus ! Mas eu acho que o problema maior é de que mesmo essa segunda meta, que é uma meta, digamos, de realismo, também não será atingida se não se fizerem muito mais esforços do que aqueles que estão anunciados. E nós temos ainda o déficit sempre verificado daquilo que se promete e daquilo que se faz. Portanto, há contribuições dos vários países anunciadas aqui na COP, porque este era o ano em que se deveria fazer a revisão dos planos nacionais. Apenas 100 países, mais ou menos, vão apresentar esses planos nacionais. Se tivermos sorte, chegar aos 100. Portanto, faltarão cerca de 80 e poucos países. Mas mais importante do que isso é que esses países que não estão presentes, digamos, na mesa, alguns deles são os maiores emissores e, portanto, nós temos aqui já, digamos, comprometimento muito menor do que anteriormente, mas daqueles que anunciam temos um nível de ambição que está em redução, em vez de aumento. Como o senhor professor está, nomeadamente responsável pela parte africana. Eu pedir-lhe-ia que nos desse um pouco um olhar da dimensão dos africanos presentes em Belém. Em que estado de espírito é que viu as delegações chegarem? São de alto nível? Isso é promissor, a seu ver, em relação à visibilidade de África nesta conferência ? Nós não temos delegações lideradas por chefes de Estado em grande número, não é? E também a nível ministerial, a presença é bastante limitada e há várias explicações para isso. Uma delas é o facto de que estamos quase com as mesmas datas com a cimeira do G20, em que a África, pela primeira vez, tem uma importância maior, porque está a hospedar a cimeira do G20 e é a primeira vez que a União Africana participa a pleno. E há uma série de países africanos convidados pela presidência sul-africana. Portanto, isso não joga a favor da COP. A segunda razão é a logística. A logística aqui em Belém é muito complexa, é também muito cara. Portanto, as delegações africanas acabaram por ser penalizadas por causa dessa logística. A terceira razão é o facto de nós estarmos numa COP em que, digamos, os principais protagonistas estão ausentes e, portanto, não vamos ter aqui os três principais emissores actuais, que são os Estados Unidos, a China e a Índia. E podemos juntar de todo o G7. A nível de lideranças vieram apenas cerca de três, portanto há 17 países do G20 e do G7 e do G20, que não estarão presentes. E isso é, digamos, um desincentivo para a própria presença de outros países, nomeadamente africanos. No discurso de abertura, o presidente brasileiro, Lula da Silva, lembrava que, de facto, em 92 tinha havido um pontapé de saída importante já no Brasil em relação às questões ambientais. E esta conferência volta, então, ao Brasil e agora à a Amazónia e a Belém, onde se encontra o senhor professor. O que é que nos pode dizer acerca, precisamente, da expectativa dos habitantes desta grande cidade da Amazónia brasileira, relativamente ao acolhimento desta conferência, para a qual o mundo inteiro tem os olhos virados ? Há uma grande excitação em Belém e há uma atitude, digamos, de grande euforia que se vê, que se sente. É palpável. Portanto, há um défice de visibilidade na Amazónia e esta é uma grande oportunidade. É uma janela para se poder mostrar que a Amazónia é muito mais do que apenas árvores. Tem pessoas, tem cultura, tem gastronomia, tem cultura musical também muito importante para o Brasil o carimbó. Enfim, temos aqui uma atitude de grande celebração e uma atitude de grande entusiasmo, a tal ponto que não vai haver problema de números em termos de participantes da COP. Pode haver problema de participação internacional, mas todo o espaço que não for ocupado por presença de delegações internacionais seguramente é ocupado com grande pompa e circunstância e entusiasmo por participantes paraenses, amazónicos, brasileiros. Belém do Pará é mesmo uma área particularmente vulnerável às alterações climáticas ? Seguramente, porque a Amazónia tem um problema de desmatamento, mas também tem um problema de grilagem, como aqui se chama, de ocupação ilegal de terras. Tem um problema de populações que vivem em regime quase escravo, segundo a definição da Organização Internacional do Trabalho. E nestes três quesitos, um dos Estados que sofrem mais é justamente o Estado do Pará. Portanto, não estamos muito longe dos grandes problemas que afectam a Amazónia.

Making Money Minute with Ron Hiebert - Canada's Sold Its Gold Canada is the only G7 country whose Central Bank doesn ‘t have any significant gold reserves. Both conservative and Liberal governments in the 80's and 90's sold off the majority of our gold stockpile, using the rationale that it was a loser, and they wanted to put the proceeds into more productive assets. Their major selling came at a time when gold was trading around $400 an ounce. Today gold prices are 10 times higher. Sadly the proceeds financed more spending.

00:00 – Intro & Banter DJz and Griffin open with a lighthearted “yo” exchange before diving into the day's topic: the November Arc Launch. 02:30 – Outpost Overview & Patch Notes DJz confirms the new Outpost Exchange Material Refinery and material generators—now offering three upgrade brackets instead of two. 05:00 – Material Generators & Scaling Discussion of G5–G7 sourcing, how early-tier players benefit immediately, and why high-tier (G7) players face longer roads. 06:45 – Outpost Fleet Slots Correction DJz admits his earlier info was off: the fourth ship slot won't arrive this month, only two at level 1 and a third unlocked at level 40. 08:30 – Upgrade Value & Player Expectations They predict most players will reach levels 15–20 early, with strong emphasis on the building's buffs and resource bonuses. 09:50 – How Retaliation Targets Work Explaining the new “retaliation target” type—distinct from hostiles or armadas. Only generic officers (e.g., Khan, Nero, Gorkon) will work. 11:00 – Crewing Strategies & Classic Combos Old-school crews like Kirk/Spock/Yuki resurface. Voyager crews, strike teams, and others won't trigger their abilities here. 12:45 – Outpost Mechanics Explained Players use two ships to seize an outpost, then defend it from 72 retaliation waves (five minutes apart) over about five hours. 16:00 – Passive vs. Active Gameplay The defense runs automatically—no need to trigger waves manually. Buffs can be activated mid-battle for stat boosts or mining bonuses. 19:00 – Buff Currency & Strategy Rewards go directly to inventory, not cargo. Players can bank currency for future runs to maximize buffs on the next outpost. 22:00 – Outpost Buff Types & Factions Each target faction (Cardassian, Borg, Node) offers unique buff categories—PvE, utility, and PvP respectively. 25:00 – Leaving or Losing Outposts Leaving ends your buffs immediately. Arena transfers or incursions also break outpost control; the veil and territories are safe. 29:00 – Start Timer Change & QA Notes Community discovers a 3-minute start timer instead of 1; DJz says it adds strategy but invites more PvP risk. Griffin reports a live bug: Away Teams are currently broken. 30:30 – Officer Discussion: Nog Nog's debut ties to his father Rom's legacy. DJz praises the lore while admitting limited gameplay utility unless base-raiding improves. 33:40 – Officer Discussion: The Hierarch Introduces “Carol Freeman 2.0?”—potentially a PvP counter, though effectiveness depends on high tiers. Artwork and narrative praised. 38:30 – New Max Ship XP Button (QoL Update) They test the new instant-max feature: convenient for scrapping but risky for free-to-play players due to auto-Latinum use. 44:50 – Who Benefits Most from Max-All Ideal for heavy spenders; free players must be cautious. Some want sliders added for smaller upgrades during events. 45:50 – Weekly Mission Rollouts & Bug Fixes Missions release weekly this arc; Scopely claims to fix veil recall daily bug and arena entry issue. 47:30 – Mid-Ops Experience Announcement Wardaddy returns to discuss a new mid-ops battle pass later this week, expanding mid-tier gameplay. 49:00 – Chaos Tech Review They dissect “Particle Synthesis” (loot and mining boosts) and “Biomimetic Gel” (PvP buffs). DJz clarifies the math—impressive numbers but balanced impact. 53:40 – New Primes for Outposts Three new primes enhance solo outpost assault, output, and retaliation rewards—though DJz warns their longevity is uncertain. 55:40 – Wrap-Up & Closing Remarks DJz and Griffin summarize the arc, thank listeners, and tease in-game lab testing later that night.

1. 稀土提煉的地理考量與中國的產業鏈優勢* 稀土礦藏在世界各地都有,但提煉鮮有人做。* 提煉稀土的過程需要使用極具腐蝕性的酸性溶解劑,對環境影響大,難以處理。因此,中國將這個重污染的工業集中在人口密度較低的內蒙包頭(靠近蒙古),而非杭州或深圳等大城市。* 中國在組裝生產上擁有優勢,其整個供應鏈整合得非常好,這也是中國成為世界工廠的原因之一。2. 稀土的經濟價值並非如外界想像般高昂* 儘管媒體常說稀土非常重要(用於手機等電子產品),但在經濟學角度來看,稀土的價格並不昂貴。* 例如,用於製造強力磁石(如釹鐵硼磁鐵)的主要稀土元素釹(Neodymium),每公斤僅售80美元。* 稀土價格低廉,一個主要原因是需求量並非巨大,日常器具和微型機械對稀土元素的需求並非海量。* 美國在2024年進口的稀土總值僅為1.7億美元,而同年進口牛油果的貨值是稀土的20倍。3. 中國對稀土供應的控制在於「短期不可替代性」* 稀土在地緣政治上的關鍵性,不在於它不能夠替代,而在於不能短期替代。悲觀估計,找到替代方案至少需要十年時間。* 最難找到替代品的是兩種重稀土:鏑(Dysprosium)和鋱(Terbium) 。這兩種元素主要用於製造耐熱磁石,應用於電動車和導彈導航系統,如陀螺儀(Gyroscope)。4. 西方國家已在尋求替代方案與提高稀土價格* 美國過去曾是稀土生產大國(1980年代前),但因環境污染問題(如酸性溶解液洩漏)導致加州的 Mountain Pass 礦場公司停止營運。* 面對中國的控制,美國國防部給予MP公司4億美元的10年合約,要求其重新開始供應。* 七大工業國(G7)正在討論對稀土採購設定最低價格,目的是鼓勵投資以提高生產動機,解決稀土價格太低的問題。* 在技術層面,日本在2010年因釣魚臺(尖閣群島)爭議被限制出口後,開始研發不需稀土的高性能磁石,現在日本的電動車在一定程度上已不依賴稀土。歐洲的BMW等公司也有不需稀土的高性能摩打新設計。5. 中國的「掐喉策略」(Chokehold)更像是經濟與政治的「擠牙膏式供應」* 中國的策略目標是抓住你的脖子,而不是抓爆你。如果「抓得太大力」,會加速被抓者的反抗,即加快替代產品的開發。* 一旦替代產品成功開發並大規模生產,其邊際成本(marginal cost)會很低,容易導致價格競爭,屆時稀土將不再是「掐喉」的工具。* 中國更有可能採取擠牙膏式行銷或飢餓式行銷的供應模式。這種有時鬆有時緊的供應,會讓外國無法全程投入開發替代技術,同時也可能透過出口許可證制度(licensing regime)衍生官僚程序,讓中間人或制度內的既得利益者獲利,達成政治和經濟上的一箭雙鵰。 This is a public episode.

In Ep. 108, Ray Powell and Jim Carouso interview CNN Tokyo correspondent Hanako Montgomery about the historic election of Sanae Takaichi as Japan's first female prime minister, exploring her background, conservative policies, and the geopolitical challenges she faces amid rising regional tensions and domestic economic woes. The discussion highlights Takaichi's rise: how she broke through Japan's traditional patriarchal barriers, and how she will navigate its complex domestic politics and the rapidly changing Indo-Pacific geostrategic picture.Sanae Takaichi, formerly the economic security minister, emerged as Japan's fourth prime minister since Shinzo Abe's 2020 departure, marking a milestone as the country's first woman in the role despite Japan's low G7 ranking in gender parity. Unlike many politicians who come from dynasties, her background includes a TV anchor career in the mid-1990s, where she discussed politics and society, while her parents were a police officer and a car company worker. Known for her colorful personality (including a love for motorcycles and heavy metal music), she is a self-described workaholic and Abe protégé, advocating conservative stances like revising Japan's pacifist constitution, boosting defense spending to 2% of GDP, and opposing same-sex marriage.Takaichi's election comes during a period of turmoil for the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), which lost its parliamentary majority in recent elections amid scandals like unreported slush funds and ties to controversial groups linked to Abe's assassin. The long-dominant LDP now relies on a new coalition, creating an identity crisis between its conservative roots and younger reformers. Her "Sanaenomics"--looser fiscal policies, increased government spending, and inflation relief via billions in subsidies for household items--differs from Abenomics but faces hurdles from her coalition's fiscally conservative views and Japan's demographic crisis, including low birth rates and immigration crackdowns. Markets reacted positively with the Nikkei 225 hitting records post-election, but the yen also weakened, signaling investor excitement tempered by fiscal risks.Takaichi inherits a fraught Indo-Pacific landscape, with her hawkish views on China, including criticisms of its militarization, espionage by Chinese residents, and even ugly tourist behavior, drawing Beijing's ire via state media warnings that Japan is at a "crossroads." Her April Taiwan visit, pushing defense and economic ties without U.S. centrality, has heightened tensions, though economic interdependence may prompt pragmatic diplomacy during upcoming APEC and ASEAN meetings.Takaichi previously vowed female representation in her cabinet but appointed only two women, emphasizing qualifications over gender in a male-dominated field, surprising some observers. Comparisons to Margaret Thatcher abound for her symbolic strength as a first female leader; however, there are policy differences between the two.Takaichi's tenure could reshape Japan's role amid uncertainties about U.S. commitment and China's assertiveness in areas such as the Senkaku Islands, Taiwan, and the South China Sea, with public support growing for constitutional revision and defense hikes due to perceived threats. Her success hinges on economic delivery--tackling inflation and wages--while balancing alliances.

2025-10-21 | Silicon Wafers 037 | Trump Stop Europe's €140bn Lifeline to Ukraine?Europe thinks it's found a legal-financial hack to turn Russia's frozen billions into a €140 billion, interest-free “reparations loan” for Ukraine. And just as leaders line up to back it, reports say the Trump White House is balking — raising “market stability” fears and casting doubt on G7 unity. What's the plan, what's the pushback, and can Washington block Brussels? And of course, the big question, I why Trump would do this, when the plan would have a significant impact on Ukraine's resilience, potentially turning the tide of the war. The plan, plain and simple. Here's the elevator pitch. The EU doesn't confiscate Russia's immobilized central-bank assets. Instead, it uses the cash stuck at Euroclear in Belgium (as Russian securities matured) to buy zero-coupon Commission bonds, and on that basis extend a €140 billion, 0% loan to Ukraine — repayable only when Russia pays reparations. It's ingenious and gets around many of the concerns that timid lawyer types had about simply handing the money over to Ukraine. A senior EU official framed the core legal line this way: “What we are proposing is not confiscation.” (The Guardian, Oct 20, 2025). Belgium still wants rock-solid guarantees that it won't stand alone if lawsuits hit Euroclear.

The film production began in 2018, and much has changed since then. It is now 2025, and this story is far from over.https://www.youtube.com/@UCz6UbVKfqutH-N7WXnC5Ykg https://www.kyivofmine.com/#theprojectKyiv of Mine is fast paced, beautifully filmed, humorous, fun, insightful, heartbreaking, moving, hopeful. The very antithesis in fact of a doom-laden and worthy wartime documentary. This is a work that is extraordinarily uplifting. My friend Operator Starsky says the film is “Made with so much love. The film series will make you laugh and cry.” ----------SOURCES: The Guardian - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/oct/20/european-leaders-near-deal-to-use-frozen-russian-assets-for-ukraineReuters - https://www.reuters.com/business/ukraine-could-use-reparations-loan-buy-weapons-outside-europe-document-shows-2025-10-17/Reuters - https://www.reuters.com/world/merz-advocate-use-frozen-russian-assets-eu-summit-2025-10-16/Reuters - https://www.reuters.com/world/us-supportive-new-imf-programme-eu-loan-ukraine-dombrovskis-says-2025-10-17/Reuters explainer: “How will the West use Russia's frozen assets?”** (Oct 6, 2025)Reuters: EU will seek to exclude Ukraine loan guarantees from deficit calculations (Oct 10, 2025)----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

China sits at the heart of Indonesia's energy paradox — driving the country's ambitious shift toward renewables while remaining deeply entrenched in its coal economy. Chinese financing and technology are accelerating Indonesia's clean energy buildout, from nickel refining to electric vehicles and solar manufacturing. Yet the same Chinese firms are also behind large swathes of Indonesia's coal infrastructure, including off-grid plants that power the smelters fueling its industrial boom. Kevin Zongzhe Li, an affiliated researcher at the Asia Society Policy Institute's Center for China Analysis, explored this paradox in a recent report that also details how Jakarta is carefully positioning itself among the major powers to facilitate the transition to more sustainable energy supplies.

It's been a rough week for the government: the row over the collapsed Chinese spy trial has rolled on, all while the Chancellor has been trying to lay the groundwork ahead of next month's budget. Then, overnight, another issue has emerged as fans of the Maccabi Tel Aviv football team have been banned from attending a football game against Aston Villa next month, leading to accusations of antisemitism.Tim Shipman and Michael Simmons join James Heale to discuss the day's developments. Tim reveals how the Chinese spy row has been picked up by American legislators, threatening to undermine the Five Eyes security alliance. Meanwhile Michael points out that the news that the IMF has upgraded UK growth forecasts – to the second fastest growing of the G7 – might not be all it seems.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan exposes how Mexican cartels are learning drone warfare in Ukraine, Trump's new covert operation in Venezuela, and China's growing stranglehold on the world's rare earth supply. We also cover plans for an international force in Gaza, Trump's expanding bailout of Argentina, and the return of U.S. manufacturing jobs. Cartels Train for Drone Warfare: Mexican and Colombian cartels are sending members to Ukraine to study drone combat and jamming evasion. These skills could soon target U.S. cities and law enforcement. Bryan warns, “When the next 9/11 happens, it may come from people we already know — using tech we helped build.” Trump Targets Venezuela's Narco Regime: The President authorized CIA and Special Operations units to act against the Maduro government and its Cartel de los Soles network. The finding allows covert lethal force against designated terrorists, marking the most aggressive U.S. posture toward Venezuela in decades. China's Rare Earth Power Play: Beijing tightened its export limits on critical minerals, shaking global markets. G7 leaders blasted Xi Jinping for weaponizing trade, while Trump's team vowed to counter with new mining and tariffs. International Force for Gaza: Indonesia, Egypt, Qatar, the UAE, and Azerbaijan are preparing a stabilization mission as Hamas factions turn on rival clans. Bryan warns, “It may get far worse before it gets better.” Argentina and the Fight Against Socialism: Trump doubled U.S. aid to $40 billion to back Javier Milei and block China's influence in South America, calling it “a bet on freedom.” Manufacturing Returns Home: Jeep maker Stellantis and Whirlpool announced new multibillion-dollar U.S. investments, marking major wins for Trump's reshoring plan and America's industrial revival. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Mexican cartels Ukraine drone training, Trump covert action Venezuela, China rare earth exports G7 response, Gaza International Stabilization Force, Trump Argentina Milei bailout, Stellantis U.S. factory investment, Whirlpool Ohio reshoring jobs
