What happens when childhood memories of strange creatures in the woods come rushing back — and they turn out to be real? In this chilling episode of Bigfoot Society, we bring you eyewitness encounters from Georgia, Tennessee, Illinois, New Mexico, and even the Canadian wilderness. You'll hear from a man who saw a Sasquatch take five massive steps across a football field in Rex, Georgia — and remembers a time when Clayton County was the “Bigfoot capital of the world.” A mother in Tipton County, Tennessee recounts terrifying stories of shredded tents, missing campers, government response teams, and blood trails that disappear into the forest. You'll meet a Girl Scout who saw Bigfoot vanish in the woods of Orland Hills, and a man whose father — a trucker — saw a creature with fur and a jacket tapping on his door in the middle of the night. These aren't legends. They're firsthand accounts. And they may change what you think you know about Sasquatch.

Quebec has introduced a new bill that would ban prayer in public spaces. It's the latest in a series of recent moves by the province to reinforce Quebec's secularist values. It comes as Premier Francois Legault is embroiled in a spending scandal and polls that show he's the least popular provincial leader in the country. Will falling back on Quebec values and stoking anti-immigrant sentiment work in his favour? And if Legault and the Coalition Avenir Quebec are on the outs, is it time for the Parti Quebecois and the separatist movement to make a comeback?Martin Patriquin, Quebec correspondent for The Logic, takes us through the province's state of affairs.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

Interview with Thomas Lamb, CEO of Myriad Uranium Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/myriad-uranium-csem-60-boost-to-potential-100-mlbs-wyoming-project-7466Recording date: 4th September 2025Myriad Uranium (CSE:M) represents a compelling investment opportunity in the rapidly evolving uranium sector, where technological advancement and market dynamics have created significant value creation potential. The company's flagship Copper Mountain project in Wyoming has undergone a transformative resource upgrade through modern measurement techniques, with CEO Thomas Lamb reporting that advanced gamma probe technology and laboratory assaying have delivered 50-60% grade improvements over historical estimates established in the 1970s.The technological advantage stems from replacing outdated Delayed Fission Neutron probes with modern gamma probe technology, revealing substantially higher uranium concentrations than previously recognized. Laboratory assays have confirmed these improvements, with grades above 1,000 ppm showing 60% boosts and those above 500 ppm demonstrating 50% increases. This upgrade positions the project's resource estimate significantly above the historical 15-30 million pound baseline, with expansion potential to 65 million pounds through surrounding prospects and ultimate potential of 200 million pounds according to US Department of Energy assessments.Market dynamics have shifted decisively in Myriad's favor as operational challenges at high-profile ISR projects have created investor skepticism toward in-situ recovery methods. Fund managers are now explicitly seeking conventional mining projects, with Lamb noting that sentiment has transformed from questioning conventional approaches to actively pursuing them. This preference shift provides Myriad with a significant competitive advantage, as the Copper Mountain project's geology supports conventional mining in the northern section while maintaining ISR optionality in the southern portion.The company's strategic consolidation through its planned merger with Rush Rare Metals will eliminate joint venture complexity while adding complementary assets. Currently holding an option to earn 75% of Copper Mountain, the merger will provide 100% ownership while incorporating Rush's high-grade Boxy project in Quebec, which contains 11% uranium and up to 27% niobium grades. This transaction exemplifies the "1 plus 1 equals three" value creation potential in the current uranium market.Myriad's Red Basin project in New Mexico has emerged as an unexpected value creator following the state's emergence as a nuclear technology hub. Acquired for just $525,000 Canadian, the project now attracts significant attention from major technology companies including Microsoft and Amazon Web Services, which are pursuing uranium supply partnerships to support data center and AI computing infrastructure. The convergence of Los Alamos National Laboratory expertise, state-level funding initiatives, and private technology investment is creating a unique development ecosystem.With $2.5 million in cash, Myriad maintains sufficient capital for immediate strategic objectives through a capital-efficient validation strategy. The company plans to conduct approximately eight targeted infill holes in Copper Mountain's central pit area to establish grade upgrades definitively before expanding to peripheral prospects. This methodology provides maximum leverage from limited drilling while building investor confidence in broader resource potential.The company's positioning as a US-focused uranium producer with assets in Wyoming and New Mexico aligns with domestic supply chain security objectives, positioning for potential strategic partnerships or acquisition scenarios. Management's plan to migrate toward US exchange listings could unlock significant valuation multiples while providing enhanced liquidity for investors seeking exposure to the uranium sector recovery.View Myriad Uranium's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/myriad-uraniumSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

This morning we consider the curious phrase When someone says they did all the Mitzvot, and they did not forget them. If they did it, why must they state, and they did not forget to do it? We share the fundamental principle of Rabbi Norman Lamm, who explains one can do a Mitzvah and still forget it.

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW SCHEDULE  9-5 GOOD EVENING: The show begins in Las Vegas as the Strip struggles with decline. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Jeff Bliss, Las Vegas Tourism Decline and Anaheim Development Jeff Bliss reports a significant decline in Las Vegas tourism, with a 12% drop in visitors, which he attributes to the city's nickel and diming practices by major corporations like MGM and Caesar's Palace, coupled with the rise of online gambling. Despite increased gaming revenue, the broader city economy, including restaurants and hotels not part of the strip, is suffering. Vegas resorts are now offering discounts and food credits to attract visitors. Nevada's unique lack of a state lottery, forcing residents to cross state lines for games like Powerball, also highlights a peculiar disadvantage. In Anaheim, a proposed skyway/gondola system aims to connect Disneyland, hotels, and sports venues. 915-930 Brandon Weichert, Artificial Intelligence, Quantum Computing, and Economic Impact Brandon Weichert and John Batchelor discuss artificial intelligence and quantum computing, with Weichert expressing optimism for AI's long-term economic benefits, though he finds a 7% GDP growth projection very optimistic. He believes AI will augment, not replace, human work, leading to positive productivity gains over time, especially in manufacturing and tech sectors. The conversation touches on AI's current competitiveness in generating novel research hypotheses, nearly matching humans in a Science magazine study, but humans still slightly lead in designing experiments. Weichertsees quantum computing as the next breakthrough 930-945  Professor Richard Epstein, Federal Power, National Guard Deployment, and University Funding Professor Richard Epstein discusses two cases involving the Trump administration's use of federal power. First, he analyzes Judge Charles Brier's ruling that Trump's deployment of National Guard troops for immigration enforcement in Southern California was partially illegal, citing the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act. Epstein distinguishes between protecting federal interests and overstepping into local policing, as with traffic violations or raids far from Los Angeles. He criticizes the political polarization between Trump and Governor Gavin Newsom for hindering cooperation during emergencies. Second, Epstein addresses Judge Allison Burroughs' interim decision against Trump's freezing of Harvard's research funds over anti-Semitism allegations, warning of long-term damage to US medical research. 945-1000 CONTINUED Professor Richard Epstein, Federal Power, National Guard Deployment, and University FundingProfessor Richard Epstein discusses two cases involving the Trump administration's use of federal power.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Bradley Bowman, Chinese Military Parade and US Security Bradley Bowman discusses a recent massive Chinese military parade, noting the presence of Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, and Kim Jong-un, with the president of Iran also in attendance. He views the parade as a demonstration of China's decades-long effort to build a military capable of defeating the US in the Pacific, highlighting the erosion of American security and increased likelihood of a Taiwan Strait conflict. Specific concerns include modernized hypersonic YJ seriesanti-ship missiles challenging US naval interception, the DF61 intercontinental ballistic missile aimed at the US, and a low-observable tailless drone for manned fighters.1015-1030 Conrad Black, Canadian Politics, Mr. Carney's Government, and Regional Challenges Conrad Black discusses the challenges facing Mr. Carney's new Canadian government, particularly the unrest in Alberta. Carney's extreme green views threaten Alberta's oil and ranching economy, leading to a significant separatist movement that could see the province join the United States if its energy exports aren't facilitated. Black notes that Carney has yet to reveal his plans to address this or the historical cultural and political challenges posed by Quebec, a wealthy province with aspirations for independence. Carney has been robust on national security, agreeing with President Trump that Canada needs increased defense spending.1030-1045 Jim McTague, Lancaster County Economy and National Job Market Jim McTague provides an optimistic view of Lancaster County's economy, contrasting with national job market slowdowns. He notes low unemployment at 3.4% and no personal reports of job losses. The county's economy is buoyed by affluent retirees, who contribute millions to local restaurants and businesses, and a booming tourism sector attracting 10 million visitors annually. McTague highlights the importance of agriculture and the Amish culture as economic backbones. However, housing prices are significantly elevated, posing a challenge for younger, lower-wage workers. Growth is concentrated in suburban townships due to a superior healthcare industry and expanding data centers and pharmaceutical companies attracting professionals.1045-1100 CONTINUED Jim McTague, Lancaster County Economy and National Job Market Jim McTague provides an optimistic view of Lancaster County's economy, contrasting with national job market slowdowns.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Molly Beer, Angelica Schuyler Church and the American Revolution Molly Beer discusses Angelica Schuyler Church (1755-1814), a prominent figure during the American Revolution. Born to the influential Schuyler family in Albany, Angelica was well-educated, a trait uncommon for women of her time but typical for Dutch families. She eloped with John Carter (later John Barker Church), much to her family's dismay, a decision perhaps driven by love for the cosmopolitan Englishman. Angelica was deeply involved in the revolutionary cause, supporting the French army and maintaining a strong patriotic identity even while living in London after the war. She cultivated extensive connections with key figures like George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and Lafayette .1115-1130 CONTINUED Molly Beer, Angelica Schuyler Church and the American Revolution 1130-1145 CONTINUED Molly Beer, Angelica Schuyler Church and the American Revolution Molly Beer discusses 1145-1200 CONTINUED Molly Beer, Angelica Schuyler Church and the American Revolution Molly Beer . FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Henry Sokolski, Plutonium, Nuclear Proliferation, and International Debate Henry Sokolski discusses the global debate surrounding plutonium, a highly poisonous substance used in nuclear weapons, especially by China, South Korea, and Britain. He explains that plutonium can be extracted from nuclear power reactors and quickly used to make a bomb, similar to the Nagasaki weapon. Sokolski criticizes the US Energy Department for suggesting that new reactor designs like Natrium and Ollo can extract plutonium while leaving enough radionuclides to prevent bomb-making, a claim previously debunked by studies. He highlights proliferation risks, citing South Korea's historical attempts to use civil reprocessing to acquire nuclear weapons.1215-1230 Jack Burnham, Manhattan Project Lessons for AI and US-China Talent Competition Jack Burnham explains that China views the Manhattan Project as a key lesson in harnessing international talent for national strategic goals, particularly in artificial intelligence. The US successfully recruited theoretical physicists fleeing Nazi Germany, nurturing a scientific reserve for the atomic bomb project. Burnham notes that after World War II, the US continued to prioritize basic science funding, leading to its technological edge. However, he suggests the US is currently struggling with this, as funding issues and regulatory uncertainty are driving American scientists abroad and limiting foreign talent attraction while countries like China, the EU, France, and Canada actively recruit US scientists.1230-1245 Nathaniel Peters, The Nature of Murder and Evil in Andrew Klavan's "The Kingdom of Cain" Nathaniel Peters reviews Andrew Klavan's "The Kingdom of Cain," which explores murder and evil through fiction and real-life examples. Klavan, a former atheist, was propelled to faith by Klavan, a former atheist, was propelled to faith by pondering evil, suggesting that recognizing objective moral order is necessary to condemn acts like those of the Marquis de Sade. The book examines Leopold and Loeb, who murdered to prove their superiority and live beyond good and evil, but left a crucial clue, highlighting their human fallibility. Klavan also considers Dostoevsky's Raskolnikov, whose rationalized yet pointless murder leads to a breakdown of his self-deception. Klavan argues artistic creation, like Michelangelo's Pietà, can redeem or transform the subject of art.1245-100 AM CONTINUED Nathaniel Peters, The Nature of Murder and Evil in Andrew Klavan's "The Kingdom of Cain" Nathaniel Peters reviews Andrew Klavan's "The Kingdom of Cain," which explores murder and evil through fiction and real-life examples.

Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where we journey through the Scriptures together every day. In today's episode—September 6th, 2025—Hunter, your Bible reading coach, invites you to join in as we continue our trek through the entire Bible. Today's readings take us into the prophetic messages of Ezekiel chapters 29 and 32, capturing God's judgment and future restoration of Egypt, and then into the powerful visions of Revelation chapter 11, where we witness the testimony of the two witnesses and the triumphant announcement of Christ's eternal reign. As always, we keep things simple: the goal is not only to read, but to be transformed by the God who is love. Hunter reflects on the steadfastness of God—how, even in times of captivity and hardship, God is faithful to uphold His people, just as He did for King Jehoiachin. The episode closes with heartfelt prayer, the Lord's Prayer, and greetings from the global DRB community, reminding us of the unity we share in God's Word, no matter where we are. So, whether you're joining from Oregon, Quebec, New Zealand, or anywhere else in the world, settle in as we read, reflect, and are renewed by the enduring love of God. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Live in the light of the steadfast God. Over and over again in our passages today, we hear Ezekiel marking time—anchoring every prophecy and vision to the years of Jehoiachin's captivity. Jehoiachin, whose very name means “God will uphold,” is a living reminder in exile that no matter how dark the seasons, God's steadfastness does not waver. The gods of the surrounding nations—Assyria, Egypt, Tyre, and more—have all fallen to the grave, their promises and powers exhausted. But our God? He remains. He is steadfast. He upholds his people even in captivity, even when hope runs thin. In the visions of Ezekiel, we see the futility of depending on earthly strength, on nations that seem mighty for a time but whose pride precedes their downfall. Yet, in the midst of the ruins, God's faithfulness stands out all the brighter. After decades of Jehoiachin's imprisonment in Babylon, even after all appeared lost, God upheld him—granting him favor, restoring his dignity, and seating him at the king's table. God was steadfast, even when there was little to show for it but hope and memory. Revelation reminds us that the kingdoms of this world—those that are now forgotten or in ruins—will finally become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and He will reign forever. This is our anchor. The enduring, unfailing love of God is our foundation, more firm than any earthly throne or power. God will uphold you. He is steadfast in his love and faithfulness. Perhaps you find yourself measuring time by days of hardship. Perhaps, like Jehoiachin, you wonder if your story will ever turn. Remember: God will be faithful to you. He will not forget you in your season of exile. He will lift you from the pit, clothe you in his righteousness, and set you at his table. That's who He is—the Upholder, the Steadfast One. His faithful love endures forever. Let us trust in that steadfast love. Let us remember, as we go through our own trials and waiting, that God will uphold us too. That is the prayer I hold for my own soul. That is the prayer I hold for my family. And that is the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Loving God, you have knit us together in the body of Christ from every nation and tongue. Make us a vessel of your peace today. Make us a vessel of your peace today. Where hatred stirs, let us bear your love. Where wounds run deep, let us be agents of pardon. Where fear grips hearts, may we speak faith. Where sorrow hangs heavy, may we carry joy. Teach us to listen more than we speak. To understand before we are understood. To love. For in surrender we find abundance. In mercy, we discover grace. And in dying, we rise into your life. In the name of Jesus. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.   OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

Former Montreal Canadiens great Ken Dryden passes away at the age of 78. Mark Carney's government is firming up Ottawa's 'Buy Canadian' purchasing policy with billions of dollars in new funding. The Israeli military says it is establishing a humanitarian zone in southern Gaza near Khan Younis and it is telling everyone in the area to leave. With more Canadian consumers looking for 'made-in-Canada' products, one family farm in Quebec turning up the heat in their greenhouse to grow more ginger.

PREVIEW: QUEBEC: Colleague Conrad Black comments that the new Carney government best attend to Quebec's ambitions or face renewed interest in separation. More. 1910 OTTAWA

Conrad Black, Canadian Politics, Mr. Carney's Government, and Regional Challenges Conrad Black discusses the challenges facing Mr. Carney's new Canadian government, particularly the unrest in Alberta. Carney's extreme green views threaten Alberta's oil and ranching economy, leading to a significant separatist movement that could see the province join the United States if its energy exports aren't facilitated. Black notes that Carney has yet to reveal his plans to address this or the historical cultural and political challenges posed by Quebec, a wealthy province with aspirations for independence. Carney has been robust on national security, agreeing with President Trump that Canada needs increased defense spending. 1920 DIDSBURY ALBERTA

This week on Thank God I'm Atheist, Frank is joined by Rachel (with Dan off at Burning Man!) for a lively dive into religion's latest absurdities. Trump's bizarre new obsession with “getting to heaven” makes the headlines, Kentucky churches are stealing library books in the name of morality, Quebec wrestles with prayer bans in public spaces, and a nurse swaps her grandmother's medication for “vitamins and prayers” with tragic results. In the second half, Frank and Rachel tackle the empty ritual of “thoughts and prayers” in the wake of yet another school shooting. Why do politicians keep offering platitudes instead of solutions? And what does it say about a country that can't figure out how to protect children?

Interview with Jon Deluce, Founder & CEO of Abitibi Metals Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/abitibi-metals-cseamq-unlocking-an-185mt-copper-gold-asset-hidden-for-20-years-7224Recording date: 26th August 2025Abitibi Metals Corp. is advancing a high-grade, Quebec-based polymetallic development anchored by the B26 deposit, an asset optioned from SOQUEM, that combines scale, exceptional metallurgy, and infrastructure advantages within a premier mining jurisdiction. The company's updated resource now totals roughly 18.5 million tonnes at about 2.17–2.18% copper equivalent, providing a robust platform for continued growth and technical de-risking within a well-understood volcanic massive sulfide system near the historic Selbaie mine, just 7 kilometers away. With a balance sheet showing approximately $17–18 million in cash and a plan fully financed through Q1 2027, Abitibi is executing an aggressive multi-rig drill campaign to expand the footprint and demonstrate economic scale, targeting a pathway to strategic investment or acquisition by a major.Strategically, Abitibi's partnership with the Quebec government delivers alignment, validation, and capital efficiency, as the company inherits about $25 million of prior investment and leverages existing power and road infrastructure that reduce capital intensity and support year-round operations. The deposit's metallurgy stands out: reported recoveries approach 98% for copper alongside strong gold, zinc, and silver performance, complementing significant gold credits that enhance copper-equivalent grades and improve project optionality across commodity cycles. This combination of grade, recoveries, and infrastructure positions B26 competitively against peers in stable jurisdictions at a time when copper demand from electrification is intensifying and large-scale, high-grade polymetallic inventories are increasingly scarce.Abitibi's current and planned drilling—on the order of ~17,000–20,000 meters this year with an additional ~25,000 meters in 2026—prioritizes step-outs to test continuity at depth and along strike, aiming to grow the deposit toward a 30–50 million tonne profile while advancing toward a preliminary economic assessment targeted within the option earn-in timeline. Management's endgame is clear: prove scale and economics to attract **major-company interest**, capitalizing on Quebec's mining-friendly framework and the district's processing legacy near Selbaie to shorten development pathways and unlock **value** in a critical metals market.View Abitibi Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/abitibi-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Ivan Fairhall, Managing Director of Pivotal Metals Ltd.Recording date: 26th August 2025Pivotal Metals Limited operates two complementary mining projects in Quebec that highlight the current disconnect between asset quality and market valuation in the junior mining sector. The company's flagship Horden Lake copper project contains 400,000 tons of copper equivalent resources, positioning it well above the scale threshold for strategic interest, yet trades at a $7 million market capitalization that management believes significantly undervalues the underlying assets.Managing Director Ivan Fairhall has spent two years consolidating technical work at Horden Lake, completing metallurgical testing and resource definition to create what he describes as a cohesive development narrative. Despite this progress, the market has not reflected the enhanced technical profile in the company's share price, creating what appears to be a substantial value gap.Rather than pursuing traditional drill-intensive expansion programs, Pivotal has adopted a disciplined capital allocation approach focused on high-return activities. The company is emphasizing metallurgical optimization and strategic partnership discussions for Horden Lake while shifting exploration capital toward its Belleterre projects in Quebec's infrastructure-rich Abitibi region.The Belleterre portfolio encompasses 160 kilometers of greenstone belt geology with multiple untested geophysical anomalies and historical high-grade discoveries dating to the 1960s. Using modern fixed-loop electromagnetic surveys, the company has identified several drill-ready targets that could provide near-term discovery catalysts. The projects benefit from proximity to operating mines and available processing facilities, reducing development risk.Pivotal operates alongside well-funded competitors, including Vior Inc., which raised $40 million for extensive drilling programs on contiguous properties. This regional activity validates the district's prospectivity while creating potential strategic opportunities as major operators like Agnico Eagle seek projects to fill underutilized mills. The combination of advanced development assets and high-grade exploration potential positions Pivotal as a potential beneficiary of improved market sentiment toward quality junior mining companies.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Mark Brennan,  Founder, CEO, and Director of Cerrado Gold Inc (TSX.V: CERT) (OTCQX: CRDOF), joins me to review the Q2 2025 financials and operations, along with the dual-pronged 20,000 meter expansionary exploration program at the producing Minera Don Nicolas gold mine in Argentina, and the value proposition key upcoming development catalysts at the Lagoa Salgada VMS Project in Portugal and the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium project in Quebec.    Q2/25 MDN Operating Highlights:   Q2/25 production of 11,437 GEO and AISC of $1,779/oz Unit costs expected to continue to decline as production increases in H2/2025 Q2/25 Adjusted EBITDA of $7.4 million Record heap leach production of 7,864 GEO during the Quarter Underground development at Paloma started with three access portals CIL plant receiving initial contribution from underground development; production expected to ramp up over H2/2025 20,000m Exploration Program underway at MDN targeting potential significant resource growth opportunities   Mark and I review their Minera Don Nicolas producing gold project in Argentina, and the record heap leach gold equivalent ounce production for the quarter. There is expanded and improved crushing capacity at the heap leach, from the newly installed secondary crusher, and this will continue to be impactful on a move-forward basis in Q3 and beyond, with the quantity of ore being placed on the pad having increased, and with it helping to reduce down unit costs into H2. The production profile will also keep growing with the underground mining having now commenced.  With higher gold prices, the CIL plant continued to process lower-grade stockpiles in Q2/25, but new high-grade material from the underground mining operations will start being blended with it moving forward, and this will increase the average grade throughput at the mill.   Another area of future growth will be the 20,000 meter drill program will be a combination of  underground exploration work targeting new areas of mineralization and growing the mine life, in addition to surface drilling that is exploring around the open pit resources, as well as identifying additional satellite open-pits at surface.     Next we unpacked the growing value proposition at the Lagoa Salgada VMS Project  in Portugal, with a Post-tax NPV of US$147 million and a 39% IRR in the current Feasibility Study. This Project adds both substantial precious metals resources along with critical minerals exposure (42 % Gold & Silver, 24% zinc, 14% copper, and 5% tin) to the future production profile.  We also discuss the various work streams leading to optimized Feasibility Study in Q4, a construction decision by Q1 2026.  Construction is targeted for H2 of 2026, with first production slated for early 2028.   We wrap up discussing the underappreciated value and ongoing derisking work that is moving towards a Bankable Feasibility Study in Q1 of 2026 at the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium in Quebec. Recent metallurgical test work, has reaffirmed the potential to produce high-grade and high-purity iron concentrate grading in excess of 67% iron with silica and alumina content below 2.3%.     If you have questions for Mark regarding Cerrado Gold, then please email those to me at Shad@kereport.com.   * In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Cerrado Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to see the latest news from Cerrado Gold.

Renowned natural history writer Robert Macfarlane traveled to Ecuador, India and Quebec, pondering the question of whether rivers are living beings -- the premise behind much of the movement to legally recognize the rights of nature. He found that the answer to that question is more complicated and wondrous -- and more life-altering and world-changing -- than he could have imagined.

It's Wednesday, September 3rd, 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 Jonathan Clark Turkish persecution of Christians heats up The Turkish Association of Protestant Churches reports Christians in Turkey faced increased persecution last year. The persecution often came in the form of hateful speech either in person or online. And, iIn two cases, assailants fired guns at church buildings.  Turkey also banned many foreign Christians from entering the country in recent years. Nine of these Christians appealed the ban. However, a court ruled against them and published their names. Media outlets branded the Christians as enemies of the state. Many social media comments called for them to be put to death. Turkey is ranked 45th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult countries worldwide to be a Christian.  2.5 million acres of European Union burned The European Union is experiencing its worst wildfire season since records began in 2006. Nearly 2.5 million acres of land have burned so far this year. Spain and Portugal account for over two-thirds of that area. Between the two countries, over 1.5 million acres have burned with much of it happening in just two weeks. Birth rates in England and Wales continue to fall The U.K. Office for National Statistics reported last week that birth rates fell to a new low in England and Wales. Other developed countries are also seeing low birth rates like the United States, France, and Italy. However, there appears to be a political gap in fertility. John Burn-Murdoch of the Financial Times wrote, “From the US to Europe and beyond, people who identify as conservative are having almost as many children as they were decades ago. The decline is overwhelmingly among those on the progressive left, in effect nudging each successive generation's politics further to the right.” Quebec, Canada to ban public prayers Quebec, Canada's largest province, is planning to ban public prayer. Quebec's Secularism Minister Jean-François Roberge said, “The premier of Quebec has given me the mandate to strengthen secularism . . . This fall, we will therefore introduce a bill to strengthen secularism in Quebec, in particular by banning street prayers.” The move comes in response to Muslim prayer gatherings. However, it would apply to all religions including Christianity. Nearly 65% of Quebec's population identifies as Christian. Psalm 10:4 says, “The wicked, in the haughtiness of his countenance, does not seek [the Lord]. All his thoughts are, ‘There is no God.'” Univ of Michigan fired Christian doctor who objected to transgender surgeries In the United States, a federal court ruled in favor of a Christian in a religious liberty case. Back in 2021, the University of Michigan Health-West fired Valerie Kloosterman for her beliefs. The Christian physician assistant refused to support transgender procedures or pronoun usage. The latest ruling allows her case against the university to move forward.  Kayla Toney, counsel at First Liberty Institute, said, “Today's decision is a reckoning for institutions that discriminate and punish caring people of faith.” Bill Gates funds embalming of deceased newborns to harvest organs Modernity News reports the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is funding a new gruesome project. The project involves embalming deceased newborn babies who died in neonatal intensive care units. Researchers would harvest tissues and organs from the babies for artificial intelligence development. LifeNews noted, “The Gates Foundation's involvement is seen as particularly troubling given its history of funding abortion.” 150th anniversary of Japan Bible Society And finally, the Japan Bible Society is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year. In the 1870s, American and European Bible societies established branches in Japan. These early Bible societies translated the Scriptures into Japanese in the 1880s. Their work laid the foundation for the current Japan Bible Society. Bible distribution in Japan picked up in the 1940s as 2.3 million copies of the Bible were distributed. After World War II, the Japan Bible Society became a fully self-supporting Bible Society.  Its website says, “Since then, the Japan Bible Society has not only been serving the Japanese people but also other Bible Societies that are not yet independent.” Psalm 22:27 says, “All the ends of the world shall remember and turn to the LORD, and all the families of the nations shall worship before You.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, September 3rd, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

The Beauty and the Hell of It and Other Stories (Guernica, 2025) conjures up images of women who struggle through difficult transitions, unpleasant encounters, or ghastly boyfriends and husbands. One woman is a lesbian who sees the man who raped her a decade before, another suffers from bipolar disease, and a third is harassed by her professor. Some of them are grieving and others want vindication but few of them are living the lives they'd imagined. And then there's Liam, who is devastated by his young son's death, and who'd always loved the daughter of one of his father's wives. These are beautifully written, sensitive stories about a range of human reactions to the harsh realities of life and death.
