At the end of April, the Transit Costs Project released a report: it's called How to Build High-Speed Rail on the Northeast Corridor. As the name suggests, the authors of the report had a simple goal: the stretch of the US from DC and Baltimore through Philadelphia to New York and up to Boston, the densest stretch of the country. It's an ideal location for high-speed rail. How could you actually build it — trains that get you from DC to NYC in two hours, or NYC to Boston in two hours — without breaking the bank?That last part is pretty important. The authors think you could do it for under $20 billion dollars. That's a lot of money, but it's about five times less than the budget Amtrak says it would require. What's the difference? How is it that when Amtrak gets asked to price out high-speed rail, it gives a quote that much higher?We brought in Alon Levy, transit guru and the lead author of the report, to answer the question, and to explain a bunch of transit facts to a layman like me. Is this project actually technically feasible? And, if it is, could it actually work politically?* How to cut time off the Northeast Corridor* Operations coordination as a time-saver* The move away from the Mad Men commuter* Was our episode on the Green Line extension wrong?The full transcript for this conversation is at www.statecraft.pub.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 12-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,504 on turnover of $4.8-billion N-T. Cabinet passes plan to develop central Taiwan smart manufacturing hub Premier Cho Jung-tai instructed the Ministry of Economic Affairs to work closely with local governments based on a draft plan to transform central Taiwan into a smart manufacturing hub. The premier issued the instruction during a weekly Cabinet meeting, at which a draft plan to turn central Taiwan into a global hub of smart manufacturing with existing industries and new businesses was approved. The Cabinet says machinery and precision manufacturing industries in Taichung will be transformed through the introduction of artificial intelligence to improve production efficiency and integration of the supply chain. A-I is also expected to also help the metal manufacturing business in Changhua to reduce production costs, improve energy efficiency (效率) and make operations more environmentally friendly. While technologies will be introduced in Nantou and Yunlin to improve efficiency in production and distribution of their respective agricultural and aquacultural products. Construction on Taichung MRT Blue Line begins Construction of the Taichung M-R-T's Blue Line has gotten underway at a groundbreaking ceremony. The city government has said the 24.7-kilometer line is scheduled for completion in 2034. Taichung Mayor Lu Shiow-yen says the 20 station Blue Line will run from the East District to the Port of Taichung, with future extensions planned to the Mountain Line and Coastal Line areas. The line will intersect the Green Line at City Hall, forming what Lu called a "golden cross" - a project she described (形容) as central Taiwan's most significant infrastructure development over the next decade. Ukraine Claims Russian Sumy Advance Halted Ukrainian forces claim to have stopped Russia's advance into the northern Sumy region, stabilizing the front line near the border. Ukraine's top military commander said on Thursday that this success (成功) has prevented Russia from redeploying 50,000 troops, including elite units, to other areas. Russian officials have not commented on the claim. Fighting continues along the 1,000-kilometer front line, with Ukraine relying on drones to counter Russia's slow but costly advances. In Donetsk, Russia claims to have captured two villages as part of its offensive. Both sides are also launching long-range drone strikes, causing injuries and damage across multiple regions. US Sec of Defense Berates Press as New Details on Iran Bombing Emerge US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth berated the press as Anti-Trump during a briefing on Thursday, but offered no new details on the extent of the damage caused by US strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. This comes after a classified preliminary assessment by US intelligence was leaked (洩漏) to the media - suggesting the damage may not amount to complete obliteration as the President claims. Toni Waterman has more from Washington. UK Steps Back from NAfrica Energy Project The United Kingdom is stepping back from funding a project to transmit power generated by North Africa's winds and sun via underwater cables and is pivoting instead to projects seen as less risky. The country's Energy Security Department said on Thursday it planned to step back from the $33 billion project due to a “high level of inherent risk, related to both delivery and security.” Xlinks said the project would provide an equivalent of 8% of Britain's current electricity needs, or roughly 7 million homes. British officials plan to focus on other wind and solar projects to meet their goal to generate (產生) all of the country's energy from renewable sources by 2030. That was the I.C.R.T.

Playwright Makram Ayache joins Chris Tolley to talk about growing up queer in rural Alberta. Hear about how the loss of Ayache's father influenced his acclaimed play The Green Line, and what it means to write from a place of “in-betweenness." The Green Line, nominated for a Governor General's Award, is a lyrical journey through love, loss, and the legacy of queer identity across generations.
As Beirut descends into chaos in 1978, Naseeb is swept up in the war's political tides, fracturing his bond with Mona. In the present, Rami follows a trail of memories—including a phoenix-shaped necklace left by his father—to uncover the truth about his family's past. The Green Line, nominated for a Governor General's Award, is a lyrical journey through love, loss, and the legacy of queer identity across generations.The Green Line by Makram Ayache
A poetic and heartbreaking story of intergenerational queer history in Lebanon begins. In present-day Beirut, Rami, a twentysomething queer Lebanese Canadian, returns to bury his father. Grieving and searching for meaning, he finds himself drawn to a queer nightclub—where a drag queen named Fifi, dressed as a phoenix, awakens a sense of connection. At the same time, we flash back to 1978, when a young man named Naseeb tries to flee Beirut's civil war with his sister, Mona. But Mona is in love—and refuses to leave.Featuring: Makram Ayache, Filsan Dualeh, Bahareh Yaraghi, Waseem Alzer, and Antoine Yared“Ayache's dialogue is decidedly lyrical . . . There are some truly beautiful images not just in the monologues but in simple exchanges.”- Louis B. Hobson, Calgary Herald“An affecting, well-written piece by Edmonton playwright Makram Ayache . . . that travels to a surprisingly wide variety of places . . . a universal, first-class [play] more than worthy of your attention.”- Alan Kellogg, 12thnightThe Green Line by Makram Ayache.
Misri ipo kwenye njia panda kuhusu utekelezaji wa sheria zake za kudhibiti matumizi ya tumbaku haswa sigara na Shisha. Kwa njia moja sigara inaleta mapato makubwa kwa mfuko wa mapato ya serikali ya Misri ,ni tabia inayoruhusiwa ila kwa upande mwingine inakodolea macho hatari kubwa ya kiafya inayotokana na uvutaji sigara.Unapowasili Cairo jiji kuu la Misri ,ukutana na harufu tamu ya mikate ,keki na bidhaa zingine za ngano za kuokwa,marashi yanayonukia lakini pia kuna harufu ya shisha, aina ya tumbaku ya kisasa zenye ladhaa za kupendeza lakini pia harufu kali zaidi ya sigara.Zipo sheria zinazokataza uvutaji sigara katika sehemu za umma ,shule ,vituo vya afya ila utekelezaji wake bado ni changamoto kubwa.Kuna mpango pia wa treni mwendo kasi ,maarufu Greenline ambapo uvutaji sigara umeharamishwa.Hata hivyo kibarua bado kipo cha kubadilisha mtazamo wa baadhi ya wananchi wanaoamini uvutaji sigara ni starehe ,kitu cha hadhi na unaweza kufanya hivyo popote muradi usikamatwe.Misri pia inabidi kuangalia kwa jicho la pili sheria zake za kutoza ushuru bidhaa za tumbaku iwapo lengo ni kuleta mapato kwa serikali ,kuwafaidi wazalishaji au kwa maslahi ya afya ya wengi.Kwa mujibu wa shirika la afya duniani,WHO, asilimia 20-25% ya watu wazima nchini Misri huvuta sigara.

How does the legacy of racial covenants impact housing equity and even fire recovery? Host Curtis Chang welcomes Jasmin Shupper, visionary founder and CEO of Greenline Housing Foundation, to explore how racial injustice magnifies the impact of natural disasters. Together, they dive into the devastating effects of the LA fires—particularly the Eaton Fire in Altadena—where Black homeowners have faced disproportionate losses due to historical practices like redlining and racially restrictive covenants. Jasmin shares how her mission to close the racial wealth gap and prevent mass displacement offers a path toward real estate justice, resilience, and renewal. She also reflects on her personal journey from Chicago's South Side to leading national efforts for housing equity and disaster recovery.

9:05 – 9:22 (15mins) David Stokes, director of municipal policy at the Show-Me Institute, to discuss: MetroLink Green Line Paused– The proposed $1.1 billion Green Line expansion in St. Louis has been paused at the request of Mayor Cara Spencer, who raised concerns about the project’s viability and cost. With no existing bus route along the proposed corridor and just 5,000 projected daily riders, the plan was a costly gamble with limited upside. Federal funding prospects have also dimmed. David argues this pause offers a much-needed opportunity to rethink how St. Louis approaches regional transit. The Green Line is a bad idea. It should be stopped all together, not just paused. Urban Farming Veto in North St. Louis County– County Executive Sam Page recently vetoed a $3.2 million plan to fund an urban farming initiative aimed at tackling food insecurity in North County. He cited constitutional concerns over awarding taxpayer dollars without a competitive bidding process. While some local officials criticized the decision, others, including participating farmers, pointed to a lack of transparency in the original proposal. David can break down the policy and governance issues at play. 9:25 – 9:37 (12mins) Larry Conners Weekly: "Mr. Conner's Neighborhood @LarryConnersUSA 9:41 – 9:56 (15mins) Jay Ashcroft, former: Missouri Secretary of State, @JayAshcroftMOHusband.

Martin made a trip to Stockholm and picked up some beers. The subway system in Stockholm is amazing and worth the time to ride each line to see all the different decorations per stop. It's a lot of fun. Martin stopped on the Grona Linjen or Green Line because they have beers. He picked up two beers from them. Bira Bira Bira is a nice lager at 5% ABV. Högdalen is a 6.2% English IPA. It's always fun to try a new brewery and we'll be riding the Grona Linjen again soon. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #ipa #lager

In this episode, I share my experience attending the Aerial Target Engagement Course hosted by Greenline Tactical in the summer of 2024. Last year was focused on people: instead of searching for the next best product or course I was focused on the "who" behind that service so I could get onboard with the "why" behind them. The experience consisted of three phases: weapons handling, ground school, and shooting from the helicopter. The event provided a lot of fun and the opportunities to build relationships and understand common values among participants. Goal and value alignment between consumers and providers is what stood out to me reflecting on this event. I stand for meaningful interactions and shared principles over transactional experiences and it's clear that the entire crew at Greenline Ttactical does too.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP's Sarah Anne Minkin speaks with attorney and activist Meisa Irshaid, activist and author Rela Mazali, and Professor Jonathan Metzl about the proliferation of guns in civilian spaces in Israel/Palestine. They discuss the the acceleration of organized crime and gun violence in Palestinian communities inside of '48 Israel, the mass armament of Jewish Israeli citizens, mostly men, on both sides of the Green Line, spearheaded by National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, and the links between militarization, occupation, and crimes against humanity. Meisa Irshaid is an attorney and an activist, legal advisor to the NGO Gun Free Kitchen Tables, board member at the Human Rights Defenders Fund and former attorney in the Public Committee Against Torture-Israel. A Palestinian citizen of Israel, Meisa is also co-founder of the group Women Against Weapons, focusing on fact finding among Palestinians in Israel combining perspectives on gender and ethnicity. Rela Mazali is a writer, independent scholar and feminist anti-militarist who co-founded Gun Free Kitchen Tables, where she now serves as the coalition coordinator. Rela was born Jewish in Israel, where she has lived most of her life, which–as she sees it–places her in a position of privilege, that she has resisted since 1980 by actively opposing Israel's militarization and military occupation, co-founding the New Profile movement to demilitarize society and state in 1998 and the small arms disarmament and gun control project, the Gun Free Kitchen Tables Coalition, in 2010. Dr. Jonathan Metzl is a psychiatrist and sociologist, and Frederick B. Rentschler II Professor of Sociology and Psychiatry, and the director of the Department of Medicine, Health, and Society, at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. Jonathan works on a wide range of issues, including mental illness and gun violence and race and whiteness in America. He is the author of many books, most recently What We've Become: Living and Dying in a Country of Arms. Sarah Anne Minkin, PhD, is FMEP's Director of Programs & Partnerships. She leads FMEP's programming, works to deepen FMEP's relationships with existing and potential grantees, and builds relationships with new partners in the philanthropic community.

From the Egyptians and Persians to the Romans and even Alexander the Great, the island of Cyprus has been ruled by a revolving door of empires. Today, it is partitioned between Turkish and Greek Cypriots. How did we get here? What caused this island to be carved into two? And why does it remain divided? With animated maps and guest Major-General Alain Forand, this episode of Forgotten War digs into the millennia-old history of Cyprus and the Turkish invasion of the island in 1974 that led to its partition.

The Financial Times recently put the spotlight on a phenomenon that has been dubbed the “north Cyprus trap” that has seen tens of thousands of migrant students get lured with false promises to so-called universities in the Turkish-occupied north of Cyprus. This practice is not only mired in fraud and human rights abuses, but also enables migrant smugglers who are moving many of these students through the Green Line. Joseph Wilkins, a journalist for the Financial Times based in Nicosia and the author of this report, joins Thanos Davelis as we dive into this story.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:The ‘north Cyprus trap': migrant students lured with false promisesTurkey strikes Kurdish militant targets in Iraq and Syria following deadly attack on defense companyAt least five dead in attack at Turkish aviation companyUS and Cyprus launch a strategic dialogue to bolster security
