Helion Energy plans to construct the world's first commercial fusion power plant near Malaga, Washington, aiming to deliver 50 megawatts of electricity to Microsoft data centers by 2029. The project, backed by figures like OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, involves a linear reactor using field-reversed configuration plasma. Helion intends to recover electricity directly from plasma, claiming over 95 percent efficiency. The company has announced a power purchase agreement with Microsoft and a 500-megawatt development deal with Nucor. Despite advancements, Helion has not yet demonstrated net power generation and faces skepticism about plasma stability. The fusion industry faces supply chain challenges and seeks public sector support.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the day's most interesting energy and environmental policy issues with top national experts. This week Jack invites Jackie Siebens of Helion, one of the nation's leading fusion energy companies, to the Power Hour for a fascinating conversation about this exciting technology. They discuss how the technology works, how close it is to deployment, why fusion could be the key to solving a lot of energy issues, and does it make economic sense. But most important, Jackie puts to bed the age-old question of whether fusion is just a few decades away. Not give away the plot, but she makes a compelling argument for fusion being much closer than we think. You can learn more about Helion here and more about the fusion industry at the Fusion Industry Association here. As always, you can join the conversation at thepowerhour@heritage.org! Get Jack's book, Nuclear Revolution, and our documentary about nuclear energy, Powering America. Thank you for listening and please don't forget to subscribe and help us to spread the word.

Der Untere Bahnhofplatz soll im grossen Stil saniert werden. Der Platz aus den 60er-Jahren soll eine Visitenkarte sein für alle, die mit dem Zug ankommen. Alles auf den Kopf stellen will die Stadt Baden aber nicht. Die bestehende Nutzung soll bleiben, die «Aufenthaltsqualität» aber besser werden. Weiter in der Sendung: · Die Zuchwiler Helion hat auf dem Dach eines Verteilzentrums eine grosse Solaranlage installiert. Fast 22'000 Solarmodule seien verbaut worden, bei der laut eigenen Angaben leistungsstärkten Anlage auf einem einzelnen Dach in der Schweiz. Mit dem erzeugten Strom könnte man über 2500 Haushalte beliefern, so Helion. · In Suhr hat eine Mutter ihr Baby und andere Familienmitglieder mit einem Messer zum Teil schwer verletzt. Sie sei vermutlich in einem psychischen Ausnahmezustand gewesen, so die Polizei.

Why did Operation Barbarossa fail? For more than eight decades, historians have offered one dominant answer: Nazi Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union was doomed from the outset. Vast distances, brutal weather, weak logistics and the overwhelming industrial power of the Red Army ensured that the Wehrmacht never had a realistic chance of success. But what if this familiar verdict is too comfortable — and too simplistic? In Why Barbarossa Failed: Germany and Russia in the Second World War (Helion and Company, 2026), Timothy Manion offers a bold, deeply researched re-examination of the most consequential campaign of the Second World War. Going far beyond the well-worn clichés of “General Winter” and German hubris, Manion places the story in a much longer arc: the evolution of military thought from the age of Napoleon through the catastrophe of 1914–18 and into the highly mechanised, manoeuvre-driven doctrines championed by both Germany and the Soviet Union in the interwar period. Drawing upon a vast range of previously overlooked archival records, Manion demonstrates that both armies entered the war expecting a rapid, decisive campaign — a return to war between generals, not economies. Early German successes seemed to prove them right. But as Manion reveals, the Wehrmacht's apparent mastery of mobile warfare concealed profound flaws in decision-making, command structure and operational logic. Meanwhile, the Red Army —though battered — adapted faster and more its opponent understood. The result is a compelling challenge to the established consensus. Manion argues that Barbarossa did not collapse under the weight of numbers alone: German generalship and operational misjudgement played a far larger part than most accounts allow, while Soviet resilience and strategic learning proved decisive long before Stalingrad. Rich with analytical clarity, packed with detailed campaign studies, and supported by an extensive set of newly published archival maps and figures, Why Barbarossa Failed is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand not only how the 1941 campaign unfolded — but why its outcome shaped the entire course of the war. This is the story of two armies, two visions of modern warfare — and the decision points that sealed the fate of the Eastern Front.Timothy Manion earned dual degrees in mathematics and economics from Boston University. After graduating from Harvard Law School, Manion represented global financial institutions on Wall Street as outside counsel. Not satisfied with traditional explanations for the failure of the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, Manion has undertaken an extensive investigation of the German and Soviet archives. The results of his study overturn the historical consensus on the campaign and are published here for the first time.Stephen Satkiewicz is an independent scholar with research areas spanning Civilizational Sciences, Social Complexity, Big History, Historical Sociology, Military History, War Studies, International Relations, Geopolitics, and Russian and East European history.

Today we are talking about Spaniards - Spanish Republicans - the defeated side of the Civil War… men who get driven into exile and scattered across Europe. Some end up in British uniform before the fall of France. Some join the Pioneer Corps and then quietly drift into far sharper corners of the war: commandos, SOE networks, North Africa, Italy, Normandy… even the long road to Berlin. Yet again and again they prove themselves as soldiers. Our guest today is Sean Scullion — a serving British soldier and a lifelong Spain specialist. This is the story of the men who kept going - after Spain, after France, and after the world decided to forget them. Sean's book is called Churchill's Spaniards and is available from Helion and company.

Today, we're really diving into an obscure niche. . . Rome in the 1860s — a decade of revolution, nationalism, and, oddly enough, British and Irish Catholics signing up to fight for the Pope. Our guest is historian Nicholas Schofield, author of Victorian Crusaders: British and Irish Volunteers in the Papal Army, 1860–70. It's a story of faith, politics, and some very unlikely Redcoats in baggy Zouave trousers. The book is published by Helion and here is the link to buy - https://amzn.to/46tsA48 Special thanks to my good mate Dr Christopher Brice for conducting today's interview. He is an expert in his own right and has written a number of books about Victorian military History - https://www.helion.co.uk/people/christopher-brice.php Sign up for my mailing list to receive your free eBook about the battle of Isandlwana - https://redcoathistory.com/newsletter/ And come tour the Zulu War battlefields with me by signing up for a tour here - https://paystack.com/buy/the-zulu-war-a-self-drive-tour-with-redcoat-history-devkrw
War remains the most chaotic and destructive act our species is capable of. In addition to waging war against those we disagree with, we also battle with which beliefs about war are superior to alternatives. We make war with ideas, beliefs, and mindsets along with bullets, bombs, and missiles. The tactics and technologies matter, but only if societies can also realize the limitations of their strategic, organizational, and societal frameworks on defining and engaging in organized violence.Ben Zweibelson presents an entirely disruptive and groundbreaking way to make sense of conflict at a meta-theoretical level. Blending philosophy and sociology, he provides a challenging synthesis of multiple war paradigms, from technological, Westphalian frames of Western industrialized societies to those under Marxist versions, and radical ideological movements and sects. Readers interested in philosophy, political science, security affairs, and foreign policy will find this book highly informative and provocative. In this book, those waging internationally sanctioned warfare clash with proponents of ‘wokefare', radical terrorists and doomsday cults battle with totalitarian regimes, and more.Reconceptualizing War (Helion & Company, 2025) attempts what no previous book on war has done, in that each war theory remains grounded in one dominant war paradigm. Zweibelson takes readers on a mind-bending intellectual journey where all war paradigms are explained, contrasted, and overlapped so that greater understanding of our species' perpetual fascination with conflict is achieved.Dr. Ben Zweibelson has over three decades of service to the U.S. Department of Defense, retiring as an Infantry Officer with 22 years combined service, multiple combat deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, and awarded four Bronze Stars. Author of two other books, 'Understanding the Military Design Movement' (Routledge, 2023) and 'Beyond the Pale' (Air University Press, 2023), Ben lectures at numerous war colleges and universities around the world. He holds a doctorate in philosophy, has three master's degrees, and graduated U.S. Army Ranger School among numerous other demanding military courses. Ben resides in Colorado Springs with his wife and three boys.Stephen Satkiewicz is an independent scholar with research areas spanning Civilizational Sciences, Social Complexity, Big History, Historical Sociology, Military History, War Studies, International Relations, Geopolitics, and Russian and East European history.

Episode 585In this interview, we will explore the connection between ancient prophecies, current events, and the most recent observations of Nemesis and its three major planets, Helion, Arboda, and Nibiru.The Wars of the WorldAs the world lurches from one nuclear war scenario to the next, we wonder what is behind all of it and who wants to turn us into atomic glass parking lots. Here is a tip. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. The trick is knowing who our real enemy is. If you have an open mind, after this interview, you'll have the answer.Nemesis Is the DriverWhy is the world in such a damn hurry to start WW III or more importantly, to prevent it. The answer is Nemesis, because its coming flyby and pole shift has stripped the world of time. As a result, those who are in power after the dust settles will rule the world.Predictions of The Kolbrin BibleThe Kolbrin Bible comprises 11 books. The ancient Egyptians penned the first six in the days after the Exodus, as the five books of Moses were likewise being written, and they give us precise warnings about the coming flyby.The second half was penned by ancient Celtic priests shortly before the New Testament and contains inspiring first-hand accounts of Jesus recorded in the journals of Celtic merchants visiting the Holy Land. The Kolbrin Bible is a wisdom text that corroborates the Holy Bible. To learn more, visit Kolbrin.com.We always turn to predictions and prophecy to discern the future, but never forget the first rule of prophecy. Always be aware of it, but never live in expectation of it, because prophecy is not immutable. This is why you must always be faithful to your thoughts while remaining open-minded to new knowledge.
The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1074: We're diving into CDK's post-attack transformation, Waymo's bold NYC ambitions, and China's booming AI-driven live commerce, where digital humans are outselling their creators.Show Notes with links:A year after cyberattacks rocked the industry and CDK Global, the focus has shifted from crisis response to long-term resilience — though not all lessons stuck.Two cyberattacks forced CDK's DMS offline for two weeks, disrupting operations at 15,000 dealerships and costing over $1 billion in sales.Many groups invested heavily in cybersecurity and revised disaster recovery plans as a result, with leaders like Judy Serra and Joe Shaker emphasizing staff training and consultant support as critical steps forward.Helion's Erik Nachbahr noted some dealers quickly reverted to old habits, citing a recent DMS switch that went live without basic protections like multifactor authentication — a move he called unacceptable.CEO Brian MacDonald says CDK is now “stronger than ever,” with deeper investments in security, R&D, and customer experience, saying “Over the past year, we've also seen record customer renewals.”Joe Shaker of Shaker Auto Group and TruVideo said, “It could happen to anyone. My feelings were that after going through what they've gone through and after looking at every nook and cranny of their business for security that [CDK] may be the most secure.”Waymo is preparing to re-enter New York City to map and test its autonomous vehicles — with human drivers — as it eyes a major expansion into one of the most complex and coveted markets in the U.S.Waymo is returning to NYC for the first time since 2021 to resume mapping and testing, though humans will remain behind the wheel due to state law.The company is lobbying for legal changes and applying for a permit to operate in Manhattan with safety specialists in the driver seat.In a groundbreaking move, Baidu aired a 6-hour shopping livestream led entirely by AI-generated digital humans modeled after popular host Luo Yonghao — and it crushed human-led benchmarks.The broadcast introduced 133 products with AI versions of Luo and a co-host responding to viewer comments in real time.The digital duo generated $7.6 million in sales, outperforming Luo's real past performance in just 26 minutes.China's live commerce market hit $695 billion in 2023, and Baidu now counts over 100,000 active digital human hosts, with the company saying digital humans can cut broadcast costs by 80% and boost sales by 62%.“To be honest, I was really shocked by the effectiveness of this digital human,” Luo said post-show, calling it “reality.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
Today’s episode takes a leap into the future of clean energy: Helion, a Washington-based fusion startup, just secured a lease from Chelan County PUD to build what could be the world’s first commercial fusion power plant. We break down what this means for Central Washington, local power supplies, and the global energy landscape. Plus, before we get to the news, we’re introducing a new segment: Rotten Apples, our biweekly movie review. First up? Materialists, the latest romantic drama from director Celine Song.Support the show: https://www.wenatcheeworld.com/site/forms/subscription_services/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today - Helion, an Everett-based company, is making big moves in Washington State, and nearly 400 people just packed a school gym to hear what they had to say. And later - Teresa Bendito, co-founder of Parque Padrinos, was honored with the Community Connection Award at the North Central Washington Community Impact Awards last month, recognizing her work in transforming public parks into inclusive community spaces.Support the show: https://www.wenatcheeworld.com/site/forms/subscription_services/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode, we dive into two major stories shaping Wenatchee. First, we explore Helion’s ambitious plan to bring a 50-megawatt fusion power plant to Malaga, a project that could transform clean energy in the region. Then, we turn to a growing debate over the presence of ICE in a city-owned building, as immigrant advocates push for change.Support the show: https://www.wenatcheeworld.com/site/forms/subscription_services/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

DeepSeek, DeepSeek, DeepSeek. We couldn't escape the headlines around the Chinese AI lab this week. The startup -- which claims to have built its models more efficiently and at a fraction of the cost of competitors -- lit a fire under Silicon Valley after releasing its R1 “reasoning” model and displacing ChatGPT as the App Store's top app. Today, on TechCrunch's Equity podcast, hosts Kirsten Korosec, Margaux MacColl and Max Zeff are digging into the latest news, including the reactions from both tech giants and the U.S. government, which is increasingly concerned that China is pulling ahead in the AI arms race. Listen to the full episode to also hear about: Tesla earnings -- from promises made to robotaxi updates, and questions left unanswered. Don't worry, Kirsten brought her bingo board if you want to play along. Nucleus Genomics' $14 million raise for DNA sequencing and analysis. The demand for fusion, and Helion's $425M raise to build its own fusion reactor for Microsoft. Equity has a special DeepSeek deep dive on the way for those who want more, so stay tuned!
