Mito de la creación africano: la muerte no entra por un castigo sino por un contrato. Alatangana pidió la luz a Sa, la Muerte, y el precio fueron sus hijos. En casi todas las mitologías la muerte llega por un fallo: una fruta prohibida, una desobediencia, un mensajero que se equivoca. En el mito de creación del pueblo kono, en Guinea, llega por una firma. El dios creador pide un favor, acepta el precio con plena conciencia, y el precio lo pagan sus descendientes «hasta el final de los tiempos». Y los kono no lo dejaron en cuento: en 1951, junto al río Zié, lo que hacían ante lo sagrado no era rezar. Era pagar un plazo.En este episodio: Sa, la Muerte, y su familia en un mar de barro; Alatangana, que crea la tierra, las plantas y los animales en tres movimientos; la hija de la Muerte y la fuga; los catorce hijos que nacen hablando catorce lenguas; los franceses y los ingleses en la lista de pueblos de la versión publicada en 1966; el gallo y el tutú, que aprenden de la Muerte el canto que llama al día; el primer amanecer; la factura; el «mensaje pervertido», el mito africano más extendido sobre el origen de la muerte, y por qué este no lo es; los peces sagrados del Zié; Yogpo Danéa y su «No rezo, no hago nada, alejo de mí todo pensamiento»; y el altar kono que acabó dentro de una concesión colonial francesa.Soy David García, cirujano vascular y divulgador de mitología en Mitos y Más.▶ Versión en vídeo: https://youtu.be/injm-09Kszs

In this episode, Deb Swann and Roger Alcock take us behind the scenes of humanitarian medicine, sharing their experiences of working in two very different global health emergencies: the 2023 Türkiye–Syria earthquake response and the 2014–2016 West African Ebola outbreak.On 6 February 2023, a series of devastating earthquakes struck southern Türkiye and northern Syria. More than 59,000 people were killed, including over 53,500 in Türkiye and around 5,900 in Syria. The humanitarian medical response involved emergency trauma care, field hospitals, medical evacuations and international Emergency Medical Teams. Within the first year, 38 national and international Emergency Medical Teams from more than 25 countries carried out almost 100,000 medical consultations in Türkiye. The episode also looks back at the West African Ebola crisis of 2014–2016: The largest Ebola outbreak since the virus was discovered in 1976. Beginning in Guinea and spreading to Liberia and Sierra Leone, the outbreak ultimately infected more than 28,600 people and caused 11,325 deaths. WHO declared it a Public Health Emergency of International Concern in August 2014. Deb and Roger discuss what it is like to work in these extraordinary circumstances, the challenges of providing healthcare when normal systems have been overwhelmed, and the human experiences that stay with medical teams long after they return home.In this episode:Humanitarian medicine in the aftermath of the 6 February 2023 earthquakeThe international medical response in TürkiyeWorking during the 2014–2016 Ebola outbreak The realities of working on the humanitarian frontlineThe personal experiences and human stories behind the statisticsWhat these crises can teach us about emergency medical responseNEAS Specialist Capabilities Conference 2026The North East Ambulance Service Specialist Capabilities Conference 2026 takes place on 3 November 2026 at The Glasshouse International Centre for Music, NewcastleGateshead.Under the theme “Collaborate, Innovate, Excel,” the conference brings together professionals working across specialist emergency care, with sessions covering Emergency Preparedness, Resilience and Response (EPRR), critical care and HART.The keynote speaker is Adam Desmond, the 7/7 Kings Cross paramedic, who will deliver a no-holds-barred talk on human factors and bandwidth saturation during major incidents.Other speakers include Lee Thompson, who will discuss regional critical care, alongside specialists from EPRR and HART.

What actually shapes you into who you are today? Is it where you grow up? The choices you make? The people you meet? Or the moments that seem insignificant at the time—but quietly change the direction of your life?For Clifford Brown, the path was anything but predictable. In this conversation, Michael sits down with Clifford Brown, a former Beverly Hills attorney who walked away from a successful legal career in 1987, giving up two-thirds of his income to join the U.S. Agency for International Development. What followed was nearly three decades working across Africa, Latin America, and Central Asia—including leadership roles in Guinea and Sierra Leone, Kyrgyzstan, and Colombia.But the story begins much earlier.Growing up along Washington State's Columbia River, Clifford worked farms, canneries, tugboats, and railroads before joining an oceanographic research vessel that took him to Tahiti and Latin America. That journey planted an idea that would eventually change the course of his life: the world was bigger than the one he knew.A Thomas Watson Fellowship took him back to Latin America. Learning Spanish, as Clifford describes it, was “like growing another soul.” And years later, when an unexpected opportunity appeared, he followed that curiosity into a completely different life.Michael and Clifford explore the choices, encounters, risks, and unexpected turns that shaped that journey—and what happens when you stop trying to design your life and start paying attention to where it is leading you.At the heart of the conversation are three ideas:PRESENCE • CURIOSITY • STORYThe three pillars of The Herst Method™—and a reminder that sometimes the most important chapters of our lives begin long before we realize we're writing them.Because the life that shapes us isn't always the life we planned. Sometimes, it begins with a road we didn't expect to take.Find us on Apple, Spotify or your favorite listening platform; visit us on our YouTube channel Find everything "One More Thing" here: https://taplink.cc/beforeyougopodcastWant to be a guest on One More Thing Before You Go?

All Roads Lead 65 Max Radio with Pamela L Henderson Girl Empowerment, Sierra Leone Diplomacy, and Resilience at the United Nations with Judy Kuriansky Host Pamela L. Henderson talks with UN advisor and clinical psychologist Dr. Judy Kuriansky about girl empowerment, Sierra Leone's Hands Off Our Girls campaign, resilience after trauma, and using music and diplomacy to build peace. A Warm Welcome And Introduction Pamela L. Henderson opens the broadcast on BBS Radio, describing All Roads Lead 65 Max Radio as a platform she built since 2011 around social growth and leadership for young people. She invites listeners to her Tuesday broadcasts and points them to journeyofasapphire.com and allroadslead65max.org. Henderson then introduces her guest, Dr. Judy Kuriansky, calling her an internationally known clinical psychologist, author, humanitarian, media personality, musician, and philanthropist who serves as an advisor to the Mission of the Republic of Sierra Leone at the United Nations. Henderson notes that Kuriansky once climbed Mount Kilimanjaro all the way to the summit, framing her as an example of endurance and determination. Kuriansky thanks Henderson for the invitation and says the show's focus on girl empowerment speaks directly to her own work, calling empowerment the word most critical to self-esteem, to fulfilling dreams, and, expanded outward, to peace in the world. A Journey Into Sierra Leone Kuriansky explains that at the United Nations she advocates for mental health and for Sustainable Development Goal five, the empowerment and rights of women and girls agreed to by 193 countries, and that she works closely with the first lady of Sierra Leone. Asked by Henderson to trace that journey, Kuriansky recalls a Peace Corps friend inviting her to Sierra Leone during the AIDS era, where she did radio outreach with young people for the organization Search for Common Ground. A Sierra Leonean friend was later named ambassador to the United States, and Kuriansky became his policy advisor, learning about poverty and energy issues alongside psychology. She returned during the Ebola outbreak that struck Sierra Leone, Liberia, and Guinea. She describes the first lady, once forced into early marriage herself, winning a UN resolution establishing an international day against child, early, and forced marriage, and a Sierra Leonean law allowing up to fifteen years in prison for perpetrators of sexual violence, giving legal teeth to access to justice. Resilience Lessons And Girl Empowerment Programs Henderson praises Kuriansky's emphasis on resilience, a value central to her own foundation, and Kuriansky illustrates the concept with an exercise she uses with children after disasters: bounce a ball and watch it return, then strike it harder and watch it bounce higher, proof that people can come back from crisis even stronger. Henderson asks about the first lady's Hands Off Our Girls campaign, and Kuriansky explains it targets violence against girls that drives them out of school, and includes distributing sanitary pads so girls can keep attending and building self-esteem. Henderson describes her own program, which serves girls from fourteen into adulthood, many transitioning out of foster care, domestic violence, trafficking, truancy, or family breakdown. Through her company, 65 Max Corporation, its production arm, a clothing line, and her foundation, she teaches customer service skills that build integrity, confidence, and accountability, and graduates can earn certification and apply for jobs within her organization, turning training directly into employment. Surviving Trauma, Saving A Grandson Henderson shares the story behind her foundation: in 2009 her daughter, then twenty-one and raising two children alone, survived a harsh domestic violence relationship that led to her children being removed from her home. Barred from stepping in to help directly, Henderson fought for her grandchildren while facing vandalism to her car and home, tampered bank accounts, and what she describes as a year of gang stalking and bullying, living on little more than water and bread. She says a conversation with God set her on the path that became All Roads Lead 65 Max Foundation. Henderson recounts winning guardianship of her grandson in 2017 after finding him with failing eyesight, poor dental health, and a nerve twitch from prior neglect; she dismissed the doctors treating him with medication and instead gave him love, guidance, and direction, and he is now eighteen, thriving, and doing well in school. Kuriansky calls it a story of survival and thriving, and connects it to her own volunteer support work at Ground Zero after September 11th. Music, Diplomacy, And Global Honors Kuriansky describes one of her proudest programs, The Girls' Empowerment Camp in Lesotho, where she used affirmations, dance, and storytelling to help girls address the dangers of AIDS and build self-worth. She credits her songwriting partner, musician Russell Daisey, a former student who asked her to write psychologically sound lyrics after September 11th; together they wrote Towers of Light, Hands Off Our Girls, One in Faith, Hope Is Alive, and Stand Up for Peace. As a founding member of Women for Diplomacy International, Kuriansky recently traveled to Budapest to read peace poetry with the group's co-founder, a former Hungarian ambassador to the UN. She lists honors including the Grand Commander of the Order of the Rokel from Sierra Leone's president, a Presidential award for volunteer service from President Biden, and induction into the eMentalHealth International Hall of Fame, framing recognition as rooted in a principle from Japanese psychology: appreciating what people do, however small, rather than waiting for grand achievement. Pioneering Advice Radio And What's Next Henderson turns to Kuriansky's decades as a pioneer of call-in radio advice, which began in 1980 after she evaluated sex therapy research for Masters and Johnson and wrote about pleasure for Cosmopolitan magazine, eventually hosting nightly advice shows and a Z100 program featuring celebrity guests. Asked why empowerment matters now, Kuriansky points to wars, personal fears, and anxiety over artificial intelligence, insisting that human connection cannot be replaced by machines, a concern Henderson shares even as her own foundation uses AI alongside live customer-service support. Kuriansky outlines what is next: working with Sierra Leone's first lady at the UN General Assembly, finishing a book, and performing songs including Towers of Light and Stand Up for Peace at a Times Square concert with Russell Daisey. She directs listeners to her website, drjudy.com, and to Black Tie Magazine for her writing. Henderson thanks her guest warmly, and closes the broadcast with a quote about loving fully, living gently, and gracefully letting go of what was never meant to stay.

In this segment, host Tara and co-host Lee discuss the case of an illegal immigrant from Guinea who was released by New York authorities despite pending sexual assault charges involving a minor, only to be arrested later in Maryland for a separate alleged rape. Tara points to border security gaps under past immigration policies at the Lukeville, Arizona crossing, citing reports on the influx of undocumented individuals from various nations. The hosts also discuss political shifts within the Democratic Party, referencing polling that indicates a growing self-identification with democratic socialism, while criticizing commentary by online figures regarding historical socialist regimes.

In this episode of The Consult Room, we're continuing the “Things You Never Knew” series - and this time, we're talking all things guinea pigs.Guinea pigs are widely kept across the UK, but they're also one of the most misunderstood pets. They're often seen as easy, low-maintenance “starter pets” for children - but the reality of their diet, biology, social needs and healthcare is very different.In this episode, Annie and I bust some of the biggest myths around guinea pig care. We explore why they should never be kept alone, why hay is so important for their teeth and digestion, and the unusual biological reason they need vitamin C every single day.We also unpack some of their stranger behaviours - from popcorning and wheeking to eating caecotrophs - and explain why these natural prey animals can be incredibly good at hiding signs of illness.Because guinea pigs might be small, but giving them the life they deserve requires far more knowledge and commitment than many people realise.In This EpisodeWhy guinea pigs are not “easy” or low-maintenance petsWhy guinea pigs need a daily source of vitamin CWhy they should never be kept aloneThe 85% hay rule - and why diet matters so muchWhy guinea pig teeth never stop growingPopcorning, wheeking and caecotrophs explainedWhy the traditional garden hutch may not provide enough spaceHow guinea pigs hide signs of illnessWhy newborn guinea pigs are surprisingly ready for lifeKey TakeawaysGuinea pigs are complex pets with specific dietary and welfare needsCompanionship with another guinea pig is an important part of their wellbeingHay is essential for both healthy teeth and digestionGuinea pigs cannot produce their own vitamin C and need a reliable dietary sourceMany common health problems can be prevented through better husbandry and understandingSubtle changes in behaviour or appetite can be important early signs of illness

Max Lucado schrieb über die Kraft des Gebets im Leben seines Freundes Greg Pruett: „Er ist ausgebildeter Ingenieur, Linguist und Bibelübersetzer. Doch sein bedeutendster Beitrag liegt vielleicht im Bereich des ‚radikalen Gebets‘.“ Im gleichnamigen Buch schildert Greg, wie er 2008 aus Guinea zurückkehrte, um die Leitung der Pioneer- Bibelübersetzer zu übernehmen, mitten in der Wirtschaftskrise.

San Pedro Claver, Presbítero Mt 25,31-40 25,31 Cuando el Hijo del hombre venga en su gloria rodeado de todos los ángeles, se sentará en su trono glorioso. 25,32 Todas las naciones serán reunidas en su presencia, y él separará a unos de otros, como el pastor separa las ovejas de los cabritos, 25,33 y pondrá a aquellas a su derecha y a estos a la izquierda. 25,34 Entonces el Rey dirá a los que tenga a su derecha: 'Vengan, benditos de mi Padre, y reciban en herencia el Reino que les fue preparado desde el comienzo del mundo, 25,35 porque tuve hambre, y ustedes me dieron de comer; tuve sed, y me dieron de beber; estaba de paso, y me alojaron; 25,36 desnudo, y me vistieron; enfermo, y me visitaron; preso, y me vinieron a ver'. 25,37 Los justos le responderán: 'Señor, ¿cuándo te vimos habriento, y te dimos de comer; sediento, y te dimos de beber? 25,38 ¿Cuándo te vimos de paso, y te alojamos; desnudo, y te vestimos? 25,39 ¿Cuándo te vimos enfermo o preso, y fuimos a verte?'. 25,40 Y el Rey les responderá: 'Les aseguro que cada vez que lo hicieron con el más pequeño de mis hermanos, lo hicieron conmigo'. Evangelio según San Mateo 25, 31-40 En aquel tiempo, dijo Jesús a sus discípulos: —«Cuando venga en su gloria el Hijo del hombre, y todos los ángeles con él, se sentará en el trono de su gloria, y serán reunidas ante él todas las naciones. Él separará a unos de otros, como un pastor separa las ovejas de las cabras. Y pondrá las ovejas a su derecha y las cabras a su izquierda. Entonces dirá el rey a los de su derecha: "Venid vosotros, benditos de mi Padre; heredad el reino preparado para vosotros desde la creación del mundo. Porque tuve hambre y me disteis de comer, tuve sed y me disteis de beber, fui forastero y me hospedasteis, estuve desnudo y me vestisteis, enfermo y me visitasteis, en la cárcel y vinisteis a verme". Entonces los justos le contestarán: "Señor, ¿cuándo te vimos con hambre y te alimentamos, o con sed y te dimos de beber?; ¿cuándo te vimos forastero y te hospedamos, o desnudo y te vestimos?; ¿cuándo te vimos enfermo o en la cárcel y fuimos a verte?". Y el rey les dirá: "Os aseguro que cada vez que lo hicisteis con uno de éstos, mis humildes hermanos, conmigo lo hicisteis". Y entonces dirá a los de su izquierda: "Apartaos de mí, malditos, id al fuego eterno preparado para el diablo y sus ángeles. Porque tuve hambre y no me disteis de comer, tuve sed y no me disteis de beber, fui forastero y no me hospedasteis, estuve desnudo y no me vestisteis, enfermo y en la cárcel y no me visitasteis". *** Memoria San Pedro Claver San Pedro Claver, presbítero de la Compañía de Jesús, que en Nueva Cartagena, ciudad de Colombia, durante más de cuarenta años consumió su vida con admirable abnegación y eximia caridad para con los esclavos negros, bautizando con su propia mano a casi trescientos mil de ellos. Pedro Claver y Juana Corberó, campesinos catalanes, tuvieron seis hijos, pero solo sobrevivieron Juan, el mayor, y los dos mas pequeños, Pedro e Isabel. El padre apenas podía firmar su nombre, pero era un hombre trabajador y buen cristiano. La infancia de Pedro quedó oculta para la historia como la de tantos santos, incluso la de Nuestro Señor. Trabajaba en el campo con su familia. Pedro se graduó de la Universidad de Barcelona. A los 19 años decide ser Jesuita e ingresa en Tarragona. Mientras estudiaba filosofía en Mallorca en 1605 se encuentra con San Alonso Rodríguez, portero del colegio. Fue providencial. San Alonso recibió por inspiración de Dios conocimiento de la futura misión del joven Pedro y desde entonces no paró de animarlo a ir a evangelizar lo territorios españoles en América. Al llegar a América, Pedro Claver encontró la terrible injusticia de la esclavitud institucionalizada que había comenzado ya desde el segundo viaje de Colón el 12 de Enero de 1510, cuando el rey mandó a emplear negros como esclavos. Se trata de una tragedia que envolvió a unos 14 millones de infelices seres humanos. Un millón de ellos pasaron por Cartagena. Los esclavos venían en su mayoría de Guinea, del Congo y de Angola. Los jefes de algunas tribus de esas tierras vendían a sus súbditos y sus prisioneros. En América los usaban en todo tipo de trabajo forzado: agricultura, minas, construcción. Cartagena por ser lugar estratégico en la ruta de las flotas españolas se convirtió en el principal centro del comercio de esclavos en el Nuevo Mundo. Mil esclavos desembarcaban cada mes. Aunque se murieran la mitad en la trayectoria marítima, el negocio dejaba grandes ganancias. Por eso, las repetidas censuras del papa no lograron parar este vergonzoso mercado humano. «Ego Petrus Claver, etiopum semper servus» (yo Pedro Claver, de los negros esclavo para siempre). Pedro no podía cambiar el sistema. Pero si había mucho que se podía hacer con la gracia de Dios. Pero hacía falta tener mucha fe y mucho amor. Pedro supo dar la talla. En la escuela del gran misionero, el padre Alfonso Sandoval, Pedro escribió: «Ego Petrus Claver, etiopum semper servus" (yo Pedro Claver, de los negros esclavo para siempre». Así fue. San Pedro no se limitó a quejarse de las injusticias o a lamentarse de los tiempos en que vivía. Supo ser santo en aquella situación y dejarse usar por Jesucristo plenamente para su obra de misericordia. En Cartagena durante cuarenta años de intensa labor misionera se convirtió en apóstol de los esclavos negros. Entre tantos cristianos acomodados a los tiempos, el supo ser luz y sal, supo hacer constar para la historia lo que es posible para Dios en un alma que tiene fe. En la mañana del 9 de Septiembre de 1654, después de haber contemplado a Jesús y a la Santísima Virgen, con gran paz se fue al cielo. Beatificado el 16 de Julio de 1850 por Pío IX. Canonizado el 15 de Enero de 1888 por León XIII junto con Alfonso Rodríguez. El 7 de Julio de 1896 fue proclamado patrón especial de todas las misiones católicas entre los negros. El papa Juan Pablo II rezó ante los restos mortales de San Pedro Claver en la Iglesia de los Jesuitas en Cartagena el 6 de Julio de 1986. Su fiesta se celebra el 9 de Septiembre.

El Festival Internacional de Folclore Virgen de las Huertas de Lorca se prepara para celebrar la edición con mayor participación internacional de toda su historia gracias a la presencia de agrupaciones procedentes de México, Guinea, Georgia, Ecuador y Francia. Luis González, presidente de la asociación organizadora, ha destacado el enorme trabajo de coordinación que supone acoger a una media de 130 personas, una labor que se gestiona a lo largo del año a través del circuito nacional de Festifolk España. Más allá de las dos galas principales sobre el escenario de la feria chica, el festival llenará de vida el municipio con un desfile, recepciones oficiales, actividades participativas con los vecinos y visitas solidarias a residencias de mayores y centros sociales. Todo ello culminará, como marca la tradición local, con el emotivo baile de la Jota a las puertas del santuario al regreso de la patrona.

Die Gründe erläutert Daniel Röschli, Direktor des Branchenverbands Carrosserie Suisse. Weitere Themen: · Viele Bäume haben unter der Trockenheit im Sommer gelitten, vor allem in den Städten. St. Gallen warnte zum Beispiel vor abbrechenden Ästen. Auch in Basel geht es den Bäumen nicht gut, wie der abtretende Leiter der Stadtgärtnerei, Emanuel Trueb, im Gespräch erklärt. · Wegen Starkregens ist in Guinea ein Abfallberg ins Rutschen gekommen und hat mindestens 32 Menschen getötet. Die Deponie liegt mitten in der Hauptstadt Conakry und die Menschen haben unmittelbar daneben gewohnt. Wie es zu diesem Unglück kommen konnte, ordnet Afrika-Korrespondent Fabian Urech ein. · In der haitianischen Gemeinde Kenscoff oberhalb der Hauptstadt Port-au-Prince haben bewaffnete Banden laut UNO-Angaben 47 Menschen getötet. Die Banden setzten Häuser in Brand und stürmten eine Kirche, in der Menschen Schutz suchten. Zwar wird Haiti seit Jahren von Gewalt erschüttert. Doch warum es jetzt wieder dazu kam – und warum in Kenscoff –, das beantwortet der Journalist und Haiti-Kenner Toni Keppeler.

Good afternoon, I'm _ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened marginally higher this morning from Friday's close, at 45,240 on turnover of 5.1-billion N-T. The market closed higher Friday as tech heavyweights rebounded from earlier weakness on bargain hunting. However, turnover was down from its five-day average of 880-billion N-T. Lai uses 1958 Kinmen defense ceremony to push his defense budget President Lai Ching-te says he believes that successful defense of Kinmen in 1958 is a prime example of "peace through strength. The statement came as Lai was attending the annual memorial of the anniversary of a Chinese artillery bombardment of Kinmen at the beginning of the Second Taiwan Strait Crisis. Speaking to the ceremony, Lai said the heroes in Kinmen - regardless of the their backgrounds - united as one to repel the aggression of communist totalitarianism and urged cross-party unity to supporting his 2027 defense budget. Prior to delivering his speech, Lai burned incense, laid a wreath (花圈), and bowed his head to pay his respects amid pouring rain to the soldiers who successfully repelled the attempted Chinese invasion of Kinmen. Taiwan-born astronaut to appear at Washington Nationals Taiwan day Taiwan-born NASA astronaut Kjell Lindgren is set to throw out the ceremonial first pitch at the Washington Nationals second Taiwan Heritage Day at Nationals Park on August 29. According to the Millennial Global Youth Foundation, which organizes of the annual Taiwan Heritage Day, Lindgren was chosen for the honor because of his status as an accomplished (技藝高超，有造詣) astronaut who connects Taiwan and the U-S through his multicultural heritage. Lindgren, whose Chinese name is Lin Chi-erh, was born in Taipei in 1973 while his father was serving in the U-S Air Force in Taiwan and lived in Taichung for more than two years. His mother is Taiwanese. TRUMP SIGNALS NO RETREAT ON CANADA TARIFFS AS TRADE WAR ESCALATES US President Donald Trump has posted on social media that Canada wants the benefits of being a state without being one, signalling no retreat after fifty per cent tariffs on Canadian goods came into force on Saturday. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has announced retaliatory (報復性的) tariffs targeting American steel, dairy and electronics from the eighth of September, saying Washington asked too much and offered too little. US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer says there are no new talks planned with Ottawa. Jagruti Dave has more from Washington. Guinea Refuse Site Landslide Kills 30 Guinea's civil protection service says a mountainous heap of refuse has collapsed at Dar Es Salam, the largest landfill in the capital of Conakry, killing 30 people. Heavy rain that started around 2 a.m. on Sunday washed over the refuse, triggering a landslide that buried nearby shacks. Officials say the site — an open-air waste dump that is the largest in the city — had been designated for (指定用於) closure on Sunday. Locals living around the landfill had been given eviction notices, which forced many to leave the area, but many others were still around at the time of the disaster, according to authorities. Indonesia Arrests Amid Forest and Peatland Fires Indonesian authorities have arrested 72 people suspected of starting forest and peatland fires. The fires have caused a choking haze cloud in central and west Indonesia. Officials say the fires are driven by an intensifying El Nino pattern and a prolonged dry season. The agency resumed cloud-seeding operations, deploying helicopters for water-bombing missions. Authorities are investigating whether companies financed the land clearing, which could expand the probe (調查) beyond those arrested. The blazes have spread smoke into Malaysia, straining relations with neighboring countries. On Sunday, parts of Borneo and South Sumatra were heavily affected. That was the I.C.R.T.

A landslide at a rubbish dump on the outskirts of the Guinean capital has killed 30 people and injured 22 others. The Guinean government said search and rescue operations are continuing on the ground in Conakry.

For some 50 years, Leo Sarkisian was a worldwide staple on the overseas radio broadcast of Voice of America. A talented musician, raised in the Armenian community around Boston, Leo began traveling the world with his Nagra tape recorder and microphones for Tempo International, a Hollywood record label. His intrepid work in remote corners of Afghanistan and in newly independent Ghana and Guinea won him the attention of Edward R. Murrow, then at VOA. So began Leo's epic career as a documenter, archivist and popularizer of African music. He once said he had worked in every African country but one. In recognition of his passing in June, 2018, we revisit Leo's rich, fascinating conversation and music-sharing session with our own Georges Collinet. Expect lively exchanges between two radio icons, and some rare audio, including Leo's 1965 recording of Fela Kuti during his jazz years. Produced by Sean Barlow and Banning Eyre APWW #783

What does it take to become fluent in English when there is no one around you who speaks English? Meet my student, Gilbert. He's from Guinea, living in Morocco, studying engineering in French, and one of my New Sound Scholarship winners.  In this conversation, Gilbert shares how he went from silent, afraid and unable to open his mouth to someone who speaks English with confidence, teaches others, and is now building a public speaking club in his own community. I hope you enjoy this interview!

Today, Les and John sit down with Tibor Nagy, former Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs and former Ambassador to Ethiopia and Guinea, to examine a fundamental shift in how Washington is approaching Sub-Saharan Africa. The Trump administration has broken from decades of aid-and-democracy-driven policy, positioning trade, investment, and strategic partnerships at the center of its Africa agenda — but ambitious intentions have run headlong into a hollowed-out diplomatic infrastructure, ambassador vacancies, and the chaotic dismantling of USAID.What does the collapse of the Sahel and the catastrophic conflict in Sudan reveal about the limits of drive-by diplomacy? Can the administration's business-first model deliver the jobs that Africa's exploding youth population desperately needs, or will poor implementation undermine the strategy before it takes root? With Gulf states, Turkey, and China all vying for influence across the continent, how should Washington prioritize its limited bandwidth — and where does competing with Beijing actually make sense?Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.@lestermunson@johnclipsey@TiborPNagyJrLike what we're doing here?

Finally back to the refencing project, Acorn sees the light at the end of the tunnel. Less than two weeks to get the project completed before Blind Hog's cataract surgery. Heat, cold, rain and heavy dew have not been kind to the goats but "we see this..." Acorn calls it "summer pneumonia" and it can take a goat in less than 48 hrs.  Good news is that the majority of the herd look great.  If Acorn could just clone the 12 or so who look superb...Tomatoes coming in splendidly, purple martins have fledged and fled,  hummingbirds drinking more than 1/2 gallon of syrup a day now.Guinea keets growing like weeds and the first of the second batch are hatching.  Not a bad week at the farm!

Kraniesamlinger, massehenrettelser, Hitler-beundring og spøgelser. Historien om Fransisco Macías handler om hvad der kan ske, hvis man gør en sindssyg person til almægtig diktator. Og her snakker vi ægte sindssyg. Ikke bare "wow, hans politik er skør"-sindssyg - eller "byggede han lige en 20 meter høj statue af sig selv"- sindssyg. Nej; "spændetrøje på en sikret overvåget anstalt, ingen skarpe genstande i nærheden" - sindssyg. På få år går Macías fra at være en - temmelig led - assistent-tolk i en provinsby i det lille vestafrikanske land Ækvatorial Guinea - til at være enerådig, og brutalt blodig, hersker over landet.

VERY Unusual start for August, but Blind Hog and Acorn are not complaining.  After a few days of rain, the farmers were able to get out and about and start clearing brush and overhanging limbs on the west fence line.Blind Hog got his cataract evaluation and will be getting a new lens in mid August. Yay!  The MD used a laser and cleared crud from behind the replacement lens in his left eye, and it is now brighter!Guinea peeps have hatched from batch 1...  Six keets, but the unhatched keet that got thrown in the trash then found to still be alive is a bit slow,  not sure it it will make it.  We will see...

In this episode, I sit down with Mildred Pantouw, a public health and international development leader whose career has taken her from Indonesia to the United States, Guinea, and back to Indonesia.Mildred reflects on growing up between two cultures and how navigating life between Indonesia and the United States shaped her understanding of identity, community, and service. She shares how her faith, childhood experiences, and early curiosity about the wider world led her into public health and international development.We talk about her first experiences working in Guinea, the importance of listening before acting, and why trust and relationships matter more than any programme or intervention. We also explore the changing landscape of international development, the need to adapt as traditional donor models evolve, and the role that resilience and hope have played throughout her career.At the time of publication, Mildred serves as Vice CEO of the Center for Indonesia's Strategic Development Initiatives (CISDI), where she works on strengthening primary healthcare through partnerships involving academia, government, and the private sector.Recorded on 10 July 2026.Connect with Mildred on LinkedIn at linkedin.com/in/mildred-pantouw-77ba454.Instagram: @at.the.coalfaceAnd don't forget to subscribe to At the Coalface for new episodes every two weeks.Help us produce more episodes by becoming a supporter.

Coming to you from The Mission Folk Music Festival (well, the show was mostly inspired by this year's festival lineup!) Some fabulous songs and tunes from a wide variety of artists who are either performing at Mission or at next month's Edmonton Folk Music Festival, with songs from Mali, Niger, Mauritania, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Cuba, India, Taiwan, Ukraine, Persia, Montreal, and Vancouver - and that was just in the first hour!! Then we headed off to Louisiana, Kelowna, Kaslo, PEI, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Alberta, and back to B.C. before taking in songs and tunes from England, Scotland, and Ireland! I peppered the selections with some little anecdotes and a bit of (I hope) slightly more useful information. Canada's folk festival season: the best music in the finest surroundings - with wonderful people!

When Dance Changes Everything: Rebecca Davis and the Children Who Learned They MatterRebecca Davis thought dance would become her career. Instead, it became her calling.In this special HarmonyTALK encore presentation, host Lisa Champeau revisits one of the podcast's most inspiring conversations with the founder of MindLeaps, a nonprofit organization that has transformed the lives of thousands of vulnerable children around the globe through dance and education.Rebecca's journey began in Canada, where she spent years training as a dancer. But everything shifted when she realized movement could become much more than an art form. It could become a bridge to education, confidence and hope for children living in some of the world's most difficult circumstances.Today, MindLeaps serves street children and underserved youth in Rwanda, Guinea, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and other developing communities, using a unique dance curriculum to strengthen cognitive and social-emotional skills while preparing young people for success in school and in life.During this heartfelt conversation, Rebecca shares remarkable stories that seem almost impossible to imagine. Children from divided ethnic communities or war-torn villages finding common ground through movement. Young people who had been told by society they didn't matter discovering that they do.Lisa and Rebecca also explore what leadership looks like when it is rooted in compassion, why creativity can become one of the world's most powerful educational tools, and how one person's willingness to follow an unexpected path continues to create opportunities for children around the world.  Thoughtful, moving, and hopeful, this encore conversation reminds us that sometimes changing the world begins with helping one child believe in themselves.

Medical missionaries are often called upon to provide care that is beyond the scope of their training and previous experience.

Año 1961. Tres exiliados en Venezuela (un portugués y dos españoles) conspiran en una azotea de Caracas, al abrigo de la noche. Se conjuran para lo imposible: tumbar las dictaduras de sus países y vengarse de ellas tomando un barco y sublevando primero Guinea y luego la Península Ibérica. Esta es la historia real que investiga el escritor José Ignacio Carnero en su nueva novela, 'Los fabuladores', que recoge la peripecia imposible de estos tres hombres y rasca en cuánta verdad y cuánta mentira existe en el propio relato de sus vidas y sus quijotescas aventuras. Reseñan el libro Carlos Alsina, Rubén Amón, Rosa Belmonte, Guillermo Altares, Sergio del Molino y Nacho Vigalondo…
