SISU: ROAD TO REVENGE MOVIE REVIEW Actor Jorma Tommila returns to his character in Sisu (no, his name is not Sisu) in a bigger, bloodier, more insane affair, as you would expect to a sequel to Sisu. Road to Revenge has him returning to the part of Finland that he used to live with his […]
A check-in conversation with Thomas Kliemt, co-founder of Kulturland, which has been growing and they are suddenly, after 10 years in the making, an overnight success. In the first 6 months of 2025, they accelerated their fundraising by 100%, raising the same €2.5m they raised in all of 2024.Once you enable access to land, transition it into the commons as an anti-speculation measure, and remove the huge debt burden new farmers face, who is actually going to farm this land? That's what Thomas' next venture is working to solve, inspired by a highly successful French model which has trained hundreds of farmers in running their businesses through incubator farms: new farmers work their own land for 3 years, run their enterprises, and receive a salary. Afterward, they are ready to take over a farm elsewhere and, remarkably, over 75% of them do. Many of the rest join other farms as employees. This is an incredibly high success rate for any incubator, and the model has already scaled to Belgium, Spain, and Finland. Now Thomas is bringing it to Germany.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

In this episode of Climate Positive, Gil Jenkins and Kenny Gayles speak with Heikki Pöntynen, CEO of Norsepower, about how rotor sails are helping the maritime industry cut fuel use and emissions. By harnessing the Magnus effect with spinning cylinders mounted on cargo ships, Norsepower is delivering 5–25% fuel savings today—sometimes even more. Heikki discusses the company's rapid growh, including a new factory in China to scale production, the evolving policy landscape at the IMO and EU, and why ship owners are increasingly open to wind propulsion.

Tyska orden är en av de klassiska kristna riddarordnar som bildades under korstågen till Mellanöstern. Trots detta är det främst ordens korståg och erövringar i Baltikum – i områden som idag utgör Estland och Lettland – som gjort den mest känd.Tyska orden utgjorde i flera hundra år en mäktig kraft i regionen och bidrog till att ge Baltikum en västeuropeisk prägel. Riddarna förde långa och blodiga krig, bland annat vid Peipussjön år 1242 och i det berömda slaget vid Tannenberg år 1410.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden diskuterar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved Tyska ordens historia. Orden blev framför allt betydelsefull som ett skydd mot öster i dåtidens Baltikum. Dess framväxt och etablering var en del av de medeltida korstågen i norra Europa. Kopplingarna till det svenska rikets expansion österut, i det som idag är Finland, är tydliga.Tyska orden kom också länge att spela en central roll inom Hansan. Flera viktiga handelsstäder i de östra delarna av Östersjön – även på Gotland – kontrollerades och skyddades av orden.När ordensstaten till slut kollapsade under 1500-talet skapades ett maktvakuum. Detta utnyttjades bland annat av det svenska riket, som inledde sin östliga expansion i dåtidens Livland, motsvarande dagens Estland. Den svenska stormaktstiden inleddes på allvar med övertagandet av Reval.Bild: Slaget vid Tannenberg var en avgörande strid mellan Tyska orden och en allians av polska och litauiska styrkor. Det markerade början på slutet för Tyska ordens dominans i Östeuropa. Slaget vid Tannenberg den 15 juli 1410, ur Berner Chronik av Diebold Schilling den äldre, ca 1483. Källa: Diebold Schilling d.

De hypotheekrenteaftrek staat opnieuw ter discussie. Econoom Raymond Gradus legt uit waarom afschaffen volgens hem uiteindelijk onvermijdelijk is. Deze aflevering in het kort: ☑️ Econoom Raymond Gradus over het nut en de toekomst van de hypotheekrenteaftrek ☑️ Wat Nederland kan leren van Finland, waar de regeling al is afgeschaft ☑️ Werkgevers eisen dat personeel zich weer op kantoor meldt De hypotheekrenteaftrek was ooit bedoeld om eigenwoningbezit te stimuleren. Inmiddels is het een heet hangijzer in de Haagse verkiezingsstrijd. Volgens econoom Raymond Gradus van de Vrije Universiteit is de regeling vooral gunstig voor hogere inkomens en zorgt het voor prijsopdrijving op de woningmarkt. In deze aflevering bespreken we waarom de regeling opnieuw onderwerp van debat is, wat er op het spel staat voor starters en middeninkomens en of Nederland lessen kan trekken de ervaringen in Finland. Daar is de aftrek al afgeschaft. Luister ook | Hoe willen we dat Nederland er over 100 jaar uitziet? Critici wijzen op de 11 miljard euro aan misgelopen belastinginkomsten, het ongelijk speelveld tussen kopers en huurders en de fiscale prikkel tot hogere leensommen. Voorstanders daarentegen benadrukken rechtszekerheid en bescherming van modale huishoudens. Gradus pleit voor een geleidelijke afbouw, met oog voor lopende hypotheken en duidelijke communicatie. Eén ding is zeker: het debat over de hypotheekrenteaftrek raakt diep aan de betaalbaarheid van wonen in Nederland. Wat er ook gebeurt, deze regeling zal de komende jaren niet onopgemerkt blijven in de Haagse politiek. Luister ook | Hoe krijg je medewerkers weer naar kantoor toe? Microsoft scherpt zijn thuiswerkbeleid aan. Werknemers moeten voortaan minimaal drie dagen per week op kantoor werken. Volgens het techbedrijf bevordert fysieke aanwezigheid de samenwerking, creativiteit en bedrijfscultuur. Hiermee sluit Microsoft zich aan bij een bredere trend onder grote bedrijven die het hybride werken willen beperken en meer focus leggen op aanwezigheid op de werkvloer. Maarten de Gruyter hoop dat meer bedrijven het voorbeeld gaan volgen.
This one's a little different. Part café chat, part Helsinki walk-and-talk. We start with rich hot chocolate at a friend's café (the best in town, according to Van) and then hit the streets, recording in real time as the city hums around us.Van Nguyen's story proves that saying yes — even before the paycheck — can lead to reinvention, community, and creative breakthroughs. From Vietnam to Finland, from panic attacks to purpose, Van shares how he rebuilt a creative life through free work, chosen family, and a stubborn belief in hard work.Along the way, we dive into grief as celebration, the struggle of receiving praise when you've been trained to stay “humble,” and the mental sanctuary Van carries with him to feel whole anywhere in the world. It's raw, inspiring, and a reminder that the next move doesn't have to be the final one. It just has to be yours.Highlights- The “clean slate” year: losing stability in COVID, couch-surfing, and rebuilding through free work- Panic attacks, grounding, and creating a mental sanctuary on demand- How free value snowballs into paid opportunities — and why being “so good they can't ignore you” still works- Grief as remembrance and celebration: the short film born from a health scare- Belonging in two homes, two cultures, and building chosen community- The next chapter: stepping fully into directing and learning to receive praise- Coaching moment: exploring worst-case scenarios, then making the next move anywayOne Mic-Drop Quote:“Whatever path you're on is your path. If it stops feeling right, make the next move.”Perfect For:Anyone standing on the edge of a big life change, creatives rebuilding from zero, and humans who need a reminder that courage and kindness still take you far.Call to Action:Loved this convo? Share it with a friend who's plotting a pivot, and tag @litolabs so we can celebrate your next move with you.-------Come say hi!
//The Wire//2300Z September 19, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: RUSSIAN AIRCRAFT INCURSION REPORTED IN ESTONIA. POCKETS OF CIVIL UNREST BECOME SOLIDIFIED IN CHICAGO AS LOCALS CONTINUE TO OPPOSE ICE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Europe: Controversy has continued over the past few days regarding the Online Safety Act. Details are hard to verify, however users noted that they could not access the Bible Gateway app from a British or European IP address yesterday afternoon. In a statement posted to their website, the app was reportedly offline due to "technical issues". Some time after this notice was posted, the main support website was taken down completely.Analyst Comment: It's not clear as to if this is a technical problem unrelated to censorship efforts, or if this website was taken offline due to noncompliance with the Online Safety Act. Either way, this app has a very large userbase, so answers will be sought regarding what is going on.Estonia: This morning several Russian fighter aircraft reportedly violated Estonian airspace. Estonia stated that 3x Russian MiG-31 fighters entered their airspace, remaining inside Estonia for 12 minutes before departing. 3x Italian F-35's were scrambled to respond to the incursion, though it is unclear as to if the Russian aircraft were actually intercepted. This morning Estonia enacted Article 4 of the NATO charter, which mandates a meeting of NATO to discuss the incident.This afternoon, Polish authorities reported that 2x Russian fighter aircraft conducted a low-pass flyover of a Polish oil rig platform in the Baltic Sea.-HomeFront-Utah: A truck driver was arrested yesterday after a minor traffic incident led to the discovery of two children in the back of his truck. Jacob Ortell Scott was arrested after two girls (aged 12 and 14) were found in the refrigerated trailer he was hauling, which turned out to be his sisters.Analyst Comment: Very few details have become public regarding this strange case, but local journalists are set on this not being a human trafficking case, simply because the driver was related to the children in his trailer. This is not a certainty, and the mere act itself is exceptionally suspicious; this could have been trafficking or attempted murder, or anything in between.Illinois: This morning local tensions flared in Chicago as activists have intensified operations to disrupt ICE, with local politicians urging resistance to deportations as well. Various ICE facilities around the city have been targeted by demonstrators attempting to prevent access to the facilities. Several federal vehicles have been attacked and the tires slashed by rioters, and a few dozen protesters (mostly led by local politicians or political candidates) remained demonstrating outside federal facilities throughout the day.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Violating Estonia's airspace is a classic Russian pastime, so even though Estonia is (understandably) freaking out about it, this incident is the fourth time airspace violations have been reported this year alone. This is mostly due to where the airspace violations are taking place...over the Gulf of Finland. Due to the very tight geography of the region, Russia can very easily violate Estonia's airspace by flying across the east-west corridor over the Gulf. Most of the time, Russia uses this as a way of poking Estonia and thus conveying their regional power to NATO. In this case, Russia chose to "poke" this time using MiG-31s...a platform that was a powerhouse during the Cold War, but is a bit dated today and is in the process of being phased out. This is probably an attempt to bully Estonia (again, as Russia is known to do), but in such a manner that is "softer" than sending Su-35's or another more modern platform. Nevertheless, the Cold War antics will continue to escalate as diplomatic effort

There's no denying it's been a pretty dark week, but we've got a couple of bright spots for you. What could be a better job than dreaming up ways that Europe could be improved? That's what this week's guest, Johanna Fabrin, does each day at the Copenhagen think tank 21st Europe. Ahead of our miniseries Who Does It Best, Dominic sat down with Johanna to talk about the group's “blueprints” for the continent, the importance of optimism, and who, exactly, is going to pay for a fantasy train system that links all of Europe together like a massive metro line. And not to be too negative, but…we decided it was a pretty Bad Week for basically all of the western world, thanks to the Russian drone incursion into Poland and Romania. But! It was a Good Week (er, a marginally, “meekly” better week) for the European Union, which is finally—finally—taking some overdue action regarding the war in Gaza. Did Ursula von der Leyen tune into our episode from a couple of weeks ago? We suspect yes. You can learn more about what 21st Europe is up to on their website and on Instagram. Also mentioned in this episode: Simply Shada, the new Substack created by the brilliant former Europeans guest Shada Islam and the interview with Finland's President Alexander Stubb.

Early in her first season coaching girls flag football at Middletown High School, Chantal Thacker is this week's guest on The Final Score podcast. Thacker chats with host Greg Swatek about her interesting background with football. From playing with boys on the playground at recess, she went on to play women's tackle football for the CT Wreckers of the Independent Women's Football League and the DC Divas of the Women's Football Alliance Pro Division, in addition to a stint on Team USA for the International Federation of American Football Women's Tackle World Championship in Vantaa, Finland during the summer of 2022. She talks about those experiences, as well as meeting her wife, Sara, on the women's tackle football circuit, and coaching the junior-varsity boys team at Wilde Lake High School, where she currently works. How was she received there by the players, administration and other coaches? Thacker also talks about her team at Middletown this season, adjusting to coaching flag football and what would constitute a successful season for the Knights. Prior to that discussion, FNP sports writer Alexander Dacy joins Greg to review Week 2 of the high school football season, look ahead to Week 3 and look over the rest of the fall sports landscape in Frederick County.
Surprising Ozone Discovery on Mars: Scientists have detected an unexpected surge of ozone in Mars's polar vortex during winter, suggesting that the planet may have once had a protective ozone layer similar to Earth's. This finding, presented at the Europlanet Science Congress, could reshape our understanding of Mars's atmospheric history and its potential to support life in the past.Russia's Ambitious Satellite Internet Plans: In a bold move to challenge SpaceX, Russia is developing its own satellite Internet constellation named Sphere, set to launch later this year. Partnering with countries like Iran and North Korea, they aim to deploy over 900 satellites by 2035, marking a significant shift in the global satellite Internet landscape.NASA Confirms 6,007 Exoplanets: NASA has officially confirmed over 6,000 exoplanets, a remarkable milestone in the search for worlds beyond our solar system. The James Webb Space Telescope is now analyzing their atmospheres, revealing a diverse array of planetary types and bringing us closer to finding an Earth twin.Asteroid Impacts and the Origins of Life: New research from Finland shows that life can flourish after asteroid impacts, as evidenced by microbial colonization in the Lupuyarvi Crater just 4.4 million years after an ancient impact. This discovery challenges traditional views of asteroid impacts as solely destructive events.Rocket Lab's Mars Telecommunications Proposal: Rocket Lab is proposing a Mars telecommunications orbiter to provide high-speed Internet between Mars and Earth, aiming to enhance data transmission for future missions and human settlements on the Red Planet.SpaceX's Starship Progress: SpaceX has moved its next Starship to the launch pad for flight testing, showcasing significant advancements in rocket technology and bringing humanity closer to interplanetary travel.For more cosmic updates, visit our website at astronomydaily.io.

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, we cover the charging of Charlie Kirk's assassin, Trump's high-stakes trip to the UK, Germany's political and cultural reckoning, Denmark's Greenland pivot, and an unexpected health study on building muscle. From courtroom revelations to foreign policy clashes and even workout science, today's brief connects the dots shaping America's security and daily life. Charlie Kirk Assassin Formally Charged: Tyler Robinson faces aggravated murder charges with Utah prosecutors seeking the death penalty. Text messages revealed him telling his trans boyfriend, “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I'm going to take it.” Robinson bragged about “engraving bullets” and retrieving his rifle from a “drop point.” Senator Mike Lee warned of possible Cuban and Iranian ties to Armed Queers Salt Lake City, while critics blasted ABC News for framing the texts as a “very intimate portrait.” Bryan warns, “This is bigger than one loner assassin… this is a puzzle piece that fits into a Leftist revolution.” Trump Visits the UK Amid Socialist Criticism: London Mayor Sadiq Khan attacked Trump as a xenophobe fanning “far-right politics,” even as King Charles prepared a lavish welcome. Trump will meet with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and may also meet Reform UK's Nigel Farage, a move described as “Make Great Britain Great Again.” Bryan says such a meeting would be “sweet revenge” after Labour staffers campaigned for Kamala Harris in U.S. swing states last year. Germany's Reckoning with AfD Surge: The populist AfD party won record support in western Germany as voters revolt over high energy prices, economic stagnation, and radical Islam. A spate of Islamist terror attacks and growing “no-go zones” in Berlin add to fears, while reports mock German workers as lazier than Greeks or Italians. One slacker told reporters, “There are other parts of life besides work, you know.” Denmark's Greenland Pivot: After Trump's pressure to secure Greenland, Denmark pledged $250 million for new runways, ports, and defenses against China and Russia. The timing of the announcement — as Trump landed in London — highlighted Denmark's attempt to appease U.S. demands without ceding sovereignty. Finland and Poland Revive Bog Defenses: Officials plan to restore swamps and peat bogs along Russian borders to bog down invading tanks, reviving a centuries-old defense strategy. Baltic nations may follow, though Germany dismissed the idea as too costly. Health Research on Muscle Building: Illinois researchers found that lean pork after workouts builds more muscle than fattier cuts, adding to past findings that whole eggs and fresh salmon outperform supplements. Bryan quips, “Get strong… you never know when a Leftist might come for you.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson charged, Utah death penalty, Armed Queers Salt Lake City Cuba Iran ties, ABC News Charlie Kirk texts coverage, Trump UK visit Sadiq Khan criticism, King Charles Windsor Castle Trump, Nigel Farage Reform UK meeting, Germany AfD populist surge, German worker laziness Washington Post, Germany Islamist terror Cologne rapes, Denmark Greenland $250 million defense, Finland Poland restore bogs Russia defense, Illinois lean pork muscle building study, whole eggs salmon workout protein
Patrick Zilliacus was born in Finland and came to the U.S. when his father became the Finnish military attache in Washington, primarily to procure weapons for Finland's war with Russia. Left on his own in the U.S. at age 16, Zilliacus worked in a steel mill before joining the U.S. Navy in 1943. He was assigned as a torpedo man on a brand new submarine, the USS Spot.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Zilliacus explains how he was almost killed when the USS Spot went out for "shakedown" after commissioning. He also details what it was like stalking and attacking Japanese vessels off the coast of China, and how his sub sunk the Nanking Maru.Zilliacus also tells us what it was like to be pursued by Japanese ships, how the Spot was very close to a major event at the end of the war, and what his future wife told him about Japanese atrocies committed against her family in the Philippines.He also shares the story of how his father crossed paths with a major Axis leader long before World War II and why he does not want World War II veterans to be called the Greatest Generation.
The crew goes live from Florida Panthers Media Day with wall-to-wall coverage, player interviews, and plenty of chaos. Tobin kicks things off front and center at GM Bill Zito's press conference—emotions run high as he jokes he just wanted to hug him. Leroy sparks a thoughtful debate about whether the Panthers' recent success is tied to a lack of pressure, just before Eetu Luostarinen joins to talk offseason fun, sharing the Stanley Cup with Finland (including a nod to the Finnish President), and easing back into hockey. Newcomer Jeff Petry shares his excitement about joining the back-to-back champs, and Jonah Gadjovich talks about his reputation as a fighter—despite claiming he's really just a chill guy. Hour two keeps it rolling with Jesper Boqvist on team chemistry and bulking up in the offseason, while Tua Tagovailoa's viral comments about Josh Allen lead to a mini-meltdown from Leroy. Mackie Samoskevich shares his Cup experience and new jersey number, and Captain Aleksander Barkov reflects on leadership, going viral with Sam Reinhart, and his special moments with the Cup. In Hour three, the gang reacts to Matthew Tkachuk's injury and Bill Zito's December return timeline, while Tobin spirals into college concession stand stories and rage over Zach Sieler ruining his sack bet. Leroy, now fully hangry, lashes out as they preview Dolphins vs. Bills and react to Tua's deep-ball comments. The final hour brings a heated debate about whether Sergei Bobrovsky is past his prime, more Dolphins breakdown, and a heartfelt moment as Tobin opens up about a rough day with his daughter—prompting Jfig and Brittney to urge a make-good. The show wraps with a special shoutout to the Florida Panthers and their incredible media team for an unforgettable day.

Along the way, Joe reflects on the show's evolution from its spoiler-days roots, teases the possibility of a hiatus when Nathan heads off on his world trip, and even slips into character as a “Chinese spy” mid-call. Highlights include: Anonymous callers asking for more “planned bits” and reminding Joe of long-forgotten show gags. A deep dive into listener Brendan's hot-take on Sasha vs. Shea, sparking debate about queens who've aged well — or not. Matt from Michigan explaining how Afterthought Media helped him through a rough tinnitus flare, and throwing some unexpected shade Nathan's way. Sean, Chloe, Halle, Allie, and James all chiming in with appreciation, questions, and stories — including a shoutout to classic Afterthought shows like Fat Camp, Hallmark Homo's, Fighting Prince Charming, and Murder House Flip. A quick look at RuPaul's DJ set with fracking imagery in the background — not exactly headline news, but worth a mention. A sneak peek at possible new theme songs for the “news” segment, complete with AI-generated lyrics that sound more Hunger Games opening ceremony than drag gossip. It's an episode that blends community, comedy, and camp — a reminder that The Rumor Mill thrives as much on listener voices as it does on Joe and Nathan's banter. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Tuesday, September 16th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Pakistani flood claims 900 lives Floods in Pakistan have taken the lives of 900 people. Plus, over two million people have been displaced and 1,600 villages destroyed. The British Christian Asian Association is on the ground helping Christian communities in Pakistan now. Make a donation through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Indicate in the box at the bottom of the linked page that your donation is to help the Pakistani flood victims. Trump compared Brazilian witch hunt of Bolsonaro to his trials As The Worldview reported on September 12th, Brazil's previous president, Jair Bolsonaro, was convicted of trying to overturn the 2022 election, and sentenced to 27 years in prison for it. U.S. President Donald Trump responded by comparing the ordeal with his own in 2020. He said, “I thought he was a good president of Brazil, and it's very surprising that could happen very much like they tried to do with me, but they didn't get away with it at all.” The Wall Street Journal featured a column by Mary O'Grady declaring that Brazil's courts have been turned to Lawfare — the use of the judicial system to achieve political ends. Nepal's revolution leaves 51 dead and with new Prime Minister The nation of Nepal has been caught in a maelstrom of revolution for the past week, leaving 51 people dead, government buildings destroyed, and supermarkets and politician's homes burned to the ground, reports the BBC. The revolution was largely instigated by Gen Z, 18 to 24-year-old college-aged youth, after a social media ban. Nepal's prime minister resigned, and another was appointed — the first woman leader of the Himalayan country. The nation is relying upon Sushila Karki to restore stability. She has promised $11,330 for each family where a protester was killed in the melee. Similar youth-driven revolutions occurred in Sri Lanka in 2022 and Bangladesh in 2024, overturning these national governments as well. Isaiah 3:12 speaks of the instability of nations in similar terms. It says, “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” The nations of the world which have appointed or elected the most female leaders since 1946 are Finland, India, New Zealand, and England. The average number of nations led by female heads hovered around 6 in the 1990s and early 2000s. Today, the average has increased to 15 female leaders. Utah Gov.: Kirk's murderer was “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology” Utah Republican Governor Spencer Cox has announced on CNN's State of the Union that official charges will be filed today against Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson. The governor also said, “The FBI has confirmed that [Robinson's] roommate was a romantic partner, a male transitioning to female.” Cox added that evidence from family and friends is pointing to the fact that the alleged murderer had been “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology.” Romans 1:28 and 29 speaks of the progression of evil: “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder.” Tyler Robinson's trans roommate “hates conservatives and Christians” Fox News has also reported that Robinson's 22-year-old “trans roommate” "hates conservatives and Christians.” That according to an interview with a relative on Fox. The woman, who asked to remain anonymous, told Fox News Digital her relative began to act differently when he turned 18 and said that he developed a hatred of Christians and conservatives. She explained that “He hated us. He was not raised that way, but he, over the years, has become really detached [and] been radicalized. … He has obviously gotten progressively worse the last year or two.” Transgenderism on the rise Transgenderism has increased across the United States — with 1.6% of American adults claiming to be such. That's four million Americans! Pew Research estimates that 44% of Americans know somebody who is attempting to appear to change their own gender. The Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland attempted the first gender mutilations back in 1966. The program was shut down in 1979. Then again, in 1997, the practice was reinstated by a Dr. Stanley Biber in Trinidad, Colorado. Biber's clinic became the gender mutilation capital of the country until the surgeon's retirement in 2003. These are the roots of the movement in America. Gold and stocks hit new highs Gold is reaching for new highs — scraping $3,670 per ounce on Monday. Silver reached $42.60 per ounce. That's up 41% and 38% respectively over the previous year. Stocks are up similarly. The NASDAQ reached 22,340 points yesterday, a 27% increase over last year. Meanwhile, the median house selling price has dropped a total of 7% since late 2022. Teen reels in 177-pound Halibut And finally, 13-year-old Jackson Denio of New Hampshire reeled in a 177-pound Atlantic Halibut off the New England coast last week. That could be a world record for a youth catch. After wrestling with the fish for a half an hour on the line, it took three men to get the monster in the boat. DENIO: “It took the three deckhands and the captain to get it in the boat, and then, once it was in the boat, everybody was just yelling and cheering. FRIEND: “Jackson! Whoo!” The largest halibut on record weighed 515 pounds, caught in Alaska in 1996. Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, September 16th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

In this episode of The Impostor Syndrome Files, we explore what it takes to lead through change. My guest this week is Erin Herman, keynote speaker, writer and consultant, whose mission is to help people lead with more humanity. Drawing on her experiences in both the private and public sectors, Erin shares why courage, empathy and a growth mindset are essential for navigating change.Here we talk about what gets in the way of leading change effectively, including outdated workplace systems and cultural resistance to vulnerability. Erin offers powerful insights into the difference between confidence and self-assurance, and how a strong personal value system can be a grounding force when self-doubt or impostor syndrome creep in. We also discuss how to influence our environments at every level, not just from the top.About My GuestFor over 20 years, Erin Herman has worked with executive teams across the globe, including Fortune 500 companies, to lead change that actually sticks. Her leadership career has taken her from the boardrooms of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital to the global halls of the United Nations. Along the way, she's built partnerships that created lasting impact—like securing a $300 million commitment to support pediatric research, one of the largest gifts ever made to a children's hospital.One of the projects she's most proud of is the Learning Passport—a digital education platform she co-created with Microsoft and Cambridge University. It now reaches children in more than 40 countries and was named one of TIME's 100 Best Inventions. It's also been ranked the third most influential project in the world by PMI.Erin has spoken at the UN General Assembly, led global initiatives across China, Finland, Italy, and South Africa, and been featured by organizations like the University of Missouri's Bloch School of Business. But at the heart of everything she does is a single goal: helping people lead with more humanity.Whether she's working with C-suite leaders navigating change or high-achieving women ready to stop shrinking and start leading, her work is about creating the kind of transformation that resonates—long after the keynote ends.~Connect with Erin:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erin-herman-97832217/ Instagram: @eebherm Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/erin.beaton.18 Podvantage Page: https://erin.podvantage.ai/ Website: https://theerinherman.com/~Connect with Kim and The Impostor Syndrome Files:Join the free Impostor Syndrome Challenge:https://www.kimmeninger.com/challengeLearn more about the Leading Humans discussion group:https://www.kimmeninger.com/leadinghumansgroupJoin the Slack channel to learn from, connect with and support other professionals: https://forms.gle/Ts4Vg4Nx4HDnTVUC6Join the Facebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/leadinghumansSchedule time to speak with Kim Meninger directly about your questions/challenges: https://bookme.name/ExecCareer/strategy-sessionConnect on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimmeninger/Website:https://kimmeninger.com

Episode 384: Driving the prairie roads south of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, your eyes adjust to an endless sea of grass and sky, where grain elevators rise like sentinels and ragged lines of poplar windbreaks whisper in the steady wind. It's a landscape that makes you feel both small and free—until, in the middle of the wheat-coloured plains, you come upon a steel-hulled ship sitting high and dry on the grass. This is the Sontiainen, built by Finnish immigrant Tom Sukanen, who spent years constructing it here, hundreds of kilometres from salt water, in hopes of sailing it home to Finland. What sounds like the beginning of a folk tale is entirely true: the man, the ship, and his dream were real—and so was the heartbreak that followed.

Ella Al-Shamahi talks to two women from France and Finland who service and create timepieces. Camille de Rouvray is a French watchmaker from a family of horologists. One of her ancestors was the official clockmaker for King Louis XV in the 1740s. Centuries later, when Camille was 35 years old, she decided to change careers completely to continue her family's legacy and follow her true passion. After training in Paris, she opened a watchmaking studio in Mirmande, a small village in the South of France. Camille is especially enthusiastic about antique clocks and feels a deep connection to the original creator when restoring them.Paula Pyhälä from Finland is a service manager at Lindroos, Finland's largest privately owned watch service provider, established in 1878. She leads a team of nine watchmakers, four administrative staff and one polisher. Paula graduated from the Finnish Watchmaking School in 2008 and continued her training at the prestigious WOSTEP Watchmaking School in Switzerland. She says she often feels like a crime detective when servicing watches.(Image: (L) Paula Pyhälä, courtesy Paula Pyhälä. (R) Camille de Rouvray courtesy Camille de Rouvray.)
It's double Nokia this week as our guest is from that company and the lads were also Nokia's guests in Finland recently. Special guest Bjorn Capens is from Belgium and he brought over a selection of beers typical to that country. So they start by going though those before getting into Bjorn's day job at Nokia, which focuses on fixed broadband networks, covering the history of broadband and the latest fixed network technology developments and market trends. They eventually get on to Iain and Scott's visit to Oulu in northern Finland, where Nokia has just opened an impressive new wireless technology campus, before briefly reflecting on Oracle's impressive recent earnings.

The University library in Tartu, in Estonia, is a large brutalist complex, surrounded by concrete water fountains and futuristic steel sculptures. But inside this unassuming building lies a hidden treasure: rare books worth thousands. In April 2022, some of these books were stolen, including historic editions by Alexander Pushkin. According to Europol, the European law enforcement agency, this theft was part of a criminal operation that targeted national libraries in 12 countries, including the Baltic states, Poland, Finland, Germany and France. It's been described as Europe's largest book heist since War World Two. Who was behind it? My colleague Nina Nazarova from BBC Russian has been investigating this story. Plus, 7-year-old Nigerian online musical sensation Emmanuel plays keyboards and drums, and has been captivating audiences online, as BBC Pidgin's Adesola Ikulajolu reports.

His brash style, while initially appealing and celebrated internationally, now alienates potential congressional allies and conservative voters. O'Grady suggests this approach is ill-suited for governing, hindering his economic reforms, as he struggles with high inflation and cuts to public subsidies, impacting public perception.945-1000 Chris Riegel, CEO of scholar.com, counters AI doomsayers like Geoff Hinton, emphasizing AI's transformational potential as a tool. He highlights the mmense investment, hundreds of billions, in building gigawatt-plus data centers across the United States. This infrastructure drive is creating new industries and jobs, establishing the US as a global leader in AI, while also noting Asia's keen interest in US AI technology and Europe's lack of a cohesive strategy. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Jonathan Conricus observes Qatar's unprecedented move to engage beyond conventional tools, which Israel is closely monitoring. He suggests Israel's recent strike could signify a new deterrence doctrine, making Hamas leaders in Doha more vulnerable. This pressure might compel Hamas to accept Israel's terms for ending the conflict, which include releasing hostages and surrendering, thereby preventing further destruction and suffering in Gaza, despite the significant costs involved for Israel.1015-1030 CONTINUED Jonathan Conricus observes Qatar's unprecedented move to engage beyond conventional tools, which Israel is closely monitoring.

Despite warnings and previous Trump administration cuts, over $25 million in grants went to organizations with alleged ties to terrorism, antisemitism, the Muslim Brotherhood, and Hamas. This included partnering with groups like CAIR, which also provided firearms training to radical mosques, raising serious questions about oversight and vetting standards for federal funds.1045-1100 Jonathan Speyer reports on Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping and Israel, sustained by Iranian, Iraqi, Hezbollah, and even Chinese support. He describes the Houthis as fanatical, religiously and tribally motivated, aiming for "death to America, death to Israel, and curse the Jews." While cutting their supply chain and taking Hodeidah port is militarily feasible for a Western-backed force, a lack of political will currently prevents such aggressive action against their sophisticated smuggling operations. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Anatol Lieven explains that Alexander Lukashenko of Belarus is a Soviet loyalist, not a Putin stooge, but was driven to Russia by Western sanctions. He discusses Russian drone incursions into Poland, likely an intentional message to NATO to test air defenses and warn against deploying troops to Ukraine. Russia may also seek to maintain Belarus firmly in its orbit by disrupting its multi-vector foreign policy initiatives, particularly any attempts at détente with the West.1115-1130 CONTINUED Anatol Lieven explains that Alexander Lukashenko of Belarus is a Soviet loyalist, not a Putin stooge, but was driven to Russia by Western sanctions.

While a flat tax would streamline the system and boost economic growth by focusing on consumption, de Rugy emphasizes that no tax system alone can resolve the severe US debt crisis; crucial reforms to Social Security and Medicare are indispensable.1145-1200 Ronan Wordsworth addresses a persistent recruitment and retention crisis in Five Eyes militaries, spanning decades. Younger generations, particularly Gen Z, favor STEM careers offering flexibility and better pay over military discipline. Militaries are responding with increased advertising, flexible service models, lateral entry for skilled professionals, and significant pay raises and bonuses. Low morale, stemming from unpopular past wars and perceived institutional guilt, also significantly impacts retention rates. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Professor Evan Ellis details Peru's complex political landscape under unpopular President Dina Boluarte, its strategic importance due to mineral resources, and substantial economic ties with China, including the Chancay deepwater port. He also addresses the escalating Venezuelan situation, with a US Marine Air-Ground Task Force deployment and bounties on Nicolás Maduro, suggesting potential military action. Additionally, he touches on Bolsonaro's trial in Brazil and Guyana's newfound oil wealth amid Venezuelan threats.1215-1230 CONTINUED Professor Evan Ellis details Peru's complex political landscape under unpopular President Dina Boluarte, its strategic importance due to mineral resources, and substantial economic ties with China, including the Chancay deepwater port.

From the Air Force reactivating old commands to Space Force rolling out new uniforms, this episode dives into the chaos of DoD rebrands, reorganizations, and questionable decisions. Why are we shooting at UFOs with Reapers? Why is Congress playing budget chicken with defense spending?

What's it like raising a kid in Finland when your family isn't fully Finnish? From family sauna nights and candy day to forest school and the push for kids to be independent early on, Finland has its own unique ways of raising children. Parents, educators and experts have their say. Zena Iovino presented this episode of All Points North. The sound engineer was Matias Puumala.

On the latest episode of Pickaxe and Roll, Ryan Blackburn breaks down the Serbia EuroBasket loss in the Round-of-16 to Finland. Nikola Jokic was tremendous offensively, but it wasn't enough for a flawed Serbia roster. Ryan discusses why Serbia lost, how Jokic's lone weakness translates to the NBA game, and what the Nuggets look like when they're at their best and their worst.
The internet's still broken, folks, and apparently, AI's here to make it more awkward. Intel caught a break from Uncle Sam's CHIPS Act, cool for them, not so much for those 'flashing warning signs' in the job market. Meta's been letting celebrity chatbots run wild (and creepy), Midjourney's getting sued by Warner Bros. for stealing IP (who'da thought?), and OpenAI thinks an AI hiring platform is a good idea. Plus, an AI chatbot automated a cybercrime spree, totally unexpected. If you're calling ChatGPT a 'clanker,' you're not wrong, but seriously? Your butt probably needs a break from the toilet.Elon Musk and his joyride of companies continue to make us wonder if we're living in a dystopian satire. Tesla got slapped with a $243 million verdict after rejecting a $60 million settlement (because that's how you make deals, right?). 'Key data' they said they didn't have? A hacker found it. His vague 'master plan' sounds like a last-minute college essay, and software deploys airbags before you crash. His quest for a trillion-dollar pay package is on, and Neuralink can't even trademark 'telepathy.' They're doing brain surgeries in Toronto now. What could go wrong?On the lighter side, Finland built a giant sand battery, which is cool, and iOS 26 finally gave iPads a native Instagram app after, like, forever. We've got movie reviews, TV binges (Wednesday is really good), and a deep dive into KPop Demon Hunters (seriously, listen to the songs). FIFA's jacking up World Cup ticket prices with dynamic pricing (of course they are), and Morrissey's selling his stake in The Smiths (probably to escape his own 'malicious associations').
