Colin Milner, founder and CEO of the International Council on Active Aging, to discuss creating a true culture of active aging. Colin defines active aging as being actively engaged in life, grounded in a whole-person wellness model that goes beyond physical fitness to include mind, spirit, environment, purpose, and connection. We address persistent ageism in wellness and senior living, including “bubble-wrapping” older adults with overly cautious programming, and emphasize using research and education to change assumptions about capability and improvement even into late life. Colin describes what an age-friendly culture looks like—autonomy, agency, inclusion, empathy, and community access for all ages—and shares future-focused insights on personalization, precision, genetics, technology, and closing the 12.4-year gap between lifespan and healthspan, stressing that HI—human intelligence and interconnection—remains central.Links:https://www.icaa.cc/https://www.agentsofmovement.com/

This week on Radio Night Live, Kevin McCullough and his co-host Cristyne Nicholas are gearing up for the ultimate celebration of America's birthday. With Memorial Day just around the corner, they're diving into the rich history of the American Revolution and the pivotal role New York City played in it.

Since 2000 the Fund has raised over $200 million for families of military personnel lost in Iraq and Afghanistan, and for several special projects serving wounded military personnel. Winters oversees the Fund's strategic planning, fundraising and program execution. Winters has been with the Fund since its establishment in 2000 and became President in 2011. In 2011 the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund launched its current program: building a series of ten advanced treatment centers for military personnel suffering the effects of traumatic brain injury. To date $100 million has been raised for this effort, and eight of the ten centers have already been built and are open and operating, with another currently under construction. Winters also serves as Executive Vice President of the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York City.

It's claimed new fishing laws coming into effect next month will be detrimental for Clare's coastal economies. From June 1st, The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and the Marine is introducing legislation which will limit anglers to catching just three pollacks per day. It follows a warning from The International Council for Exploration of the Sea which indicates that pollack stocks in Irish waters are at critically low levels and that fishing needs to be temporarily restricted. Carrigaholt based Chair of the Irish Charter Skippers Association Luke Aston says it's already impacting local business.

In this urgent episode, host Amie Archibald-Varley sits down with Dr. Michelle Acorn, CEO of the Nurse Practitioners' Association of Ontario (NPAO), to rip the band-aid off a system that refuses to evolve. Dr. Acorn pulls no punches: Nurse Practitioners are trained, capable, and ready — and they're being held back by outdated policy, inadequate funding, and a government content to watch the primary care crisis deepen rather than act. What you'll hear in this episode: The full scope of what Ontario's inaction actually means for patients on the ground Why NPs remain one of the most underleveraged solutions in Canada's healthcare system The funding reforms and regulatory barriers that must be dismantled — now What a truly patient-centered, NP-inclusive system could look like — and the path to get there Why this moment is a turning point This is the conversation healthcare needs to have. The one that doesn't end with "we'll study it further." If you care about access to care, about equity, about a system that finally treats Nurse Practitioners as the leaders they are — this episode is required listening. Subscribe, share, and turn up the volume. The gritty truth can't wait. Update: The April 1st Deadline Has Come and Gone. Ontario's Patients Are Paying for It. The federal government drew a line in the sand: by April 1, 2026, provinces must ensure that medically necessary services delivered by Nurse Practitioners are publicly covered. Ontario blinked — and millions of patients are now left holding the bill. As reported by CBC News, Ontario failed to meet the federal deadline, leaving Ontarians without primary care and forcing them to pay out-of-pocket for services that should never cost them a dime. This isn't a bureaucratic hiccup. This is a political choice — and people without a family doctor are the ones suffering the consequences. The Gritty Nurse isn't here for polite conversation. We're here to start the revolution. More About Dr. Michelle Acorn Dr. Acorn has over 35 years of nursing, health systems and leadership expertise. NP Acorn transitioned to her NPAO CEO role in 2024. She previously was the inaugural Chief Nurse with the International Council of Nurses, a former Provincial Chief Nursing Officer in Ontario, and has served as a NPAO President.

She was named one of the top 20 visionary CEOs in Canada (2024), and top 25 women of influence in Canada (2025) and received a King Charles III Coronation Medal (2025). Michelle received the inaugural Canadian Nurses Association highest merit Sapphire Award in 2025. Dr. Acorn upholds all the NP advanced practice role domains. She is diploma to post-doctoral educationally prepared, is a Doctor of Nurse Practitioner/ Nursing Practice, dually registered as both a Primary Health Care and Adult Nurse Practitioner, and a certified Global Nurse Consultant.

Rising fuel costs over the past number of months may have lead to some of you thinking whether the time has come to make the switch to electric vehicles. But what about the haulage sector? Is the technology there for electric trucks that could take freight across the country? For more on this we heard from Dr Eamonn Mulholland is a Senior Researcher with the International Council on Clean Transportation.

The winds of change are blowing through the world's maritime hubs…despite some national governments' efforts to the contrary. While the shipping industry carries 90% of global trade, it also leaves a heavy carbon trail in its wake. In this episode of Cities 1.5, we explore the high-stakes transformation of our global ports: once seen as industrial hotspots of pollution, these urban harbours are emerging as the front lines of the green transition. We dive into the groundbreaking "Green Shipping Corridors" that are linking sustainable cities, and the bold shift toward zero-emission fuels. From local air quality to global supply chains, discover how cities are turning the tide on emissions and steering the industry toward a 1.5°C future. It's time to rethink the horizon: clearer skies and smoother sailing ahead.Featured guests: Eric Garcetti, C40 Ambassador for Global Climate Diplomacy and former Mayor of Los AngelesAlisa Kreynes, Director of Ports and Shipping at C40Featured clips:The Shipping Forecast - BBC Radio 4Global shipping emissions vote on a knife edge at IMO - BBC Business TodayLinks:Greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution from global shipping, 2016–2023 - The International Council on Clean TransportationA guide to the IMO's Net-Zero Framework - Global Maritime ForumLandmark deal to cut global shipping emissions in tatters after US pressure - BBC NewsPorts and Shipping - C40 Knowledge HubGreen shipping corridors programme - C40 Cities websiteFrom Los Angeles to Shanghai, the port cities collaborating to cut shipping emissions - ReutersGreen Ports Forum - C40 Cities websiteWhy should we talk about a 'just and equitable' transition for shipping? - UN Trade and DevelopmentRescuing shipping's Net Zero Framework - Climate AnalyticsCities take the global stage to showcase climate action at the IMO for the first time - C40 Cities websiteIf you want to learn more about the Journal of City Climate Policy and Economy, please visit our website at https://jccpe.utpjournals.press/Listen to the Cities 1.5 five-part miniseries “Going Steady with Herman Daly: How to Unbreak the Economy (and the Planet)" here: https://lnk.to/HDMiniSeriesCities 1.5 is produced by the University of Toronto Press and the C40 Centre, and is supported by C40 Cities.

What does it really mean to live better longer?   In this episode of Foresight Radio, host Steve Moran sits down with Colin Milner, CEO of the International Council on Active Aging, to explore one of the biggest questions facing the senior living industry:   Is senior living ready to become the real-world delivery system for longevity?   Colin has spent decades challenging traditional ideas about aging and wellness. In this conversation, he shares why senior living communities are uniquely positioned to help older adults thrive—but also why many communities still fall short of delivering on that promise.   Steve and Colin dive into topics including the following: What "living better longer" actually means in real life Why senior living must shift from care-first to wellness-first The difference between real wellness programs and "wellness washing" Why connection, identity, and community experience matter more than amenities How senior living communities can design environments that support purpose, autonomy, and longevity They also explore what the future senior living experience could look like by 2036, including intergenerational communities, environments designed for connection, and why the best communities may feel less like institutions and more like home. If you're a senior living operator, industry leader, or someone thinking about the future of aging, this episode offers a fresh and honest perspective on where the industry is headed — and where it still needs to go.

Most investors believe that holding cash during uncertain markets is the safest move. If you stay liquid, wait for clarity, and avoid risk, you'll be in a better position when opportunities come… or at least that's the thinking. But what many high-income earners and investors don't realize is that cash sitting idle isn't neutral; it's losing ground. Between inflation, taxes, and missed opportunities, capital that isn't deployed is quietly working against you. And while many investors are pulling back, the most sophisticated capital, family offices, institutions, and sovereign funds, are doing the opposite. They're moving into hard assets. In this episode of Money School Elite, I sit down with Ben Reinberg, CEO of Alliance Consolidated Group of Companies and a commercial real estate investor who has built a $500M+ portfolio from scratch, to break down how experienced operators think about capital in uncertain environments. In this conversation, we discuss why holding cash can actually erode wealth instead of protecting it, how the ability to hold through market cycles creates asymmetric opportunities, and why forced sellers are beginning to create some of the best buying conditions we've seen in years. We also break down an often-overlooked asset class, medical property, and why its demand profile makes it one of the most durable plays in real estate, even during periods of economic disruption.   About the Guest  Ben Reinberg is an iconic investor, mentor, educator, and philanthropist, CEO of Alliance Consolidated Group of Companies, and the author of "Hard Assets and Hard Money for Hard Times: A Blueprint to Build a Hard Asset Empire That Can Withstand Every Economic Cycle".

Riad Kassis joins Mark Labberton from Beirut as airstrikes continue, 700,000 people have been displaced across Lebanon, and children's toys are visible in the rubble. He leads Langham Partnership and has spent decades serving the church across one of the world's most contested regions. He names the spiritual danger of sanctifying power with religious narrative while insisting peace cannot be forced by violence. "Peace does not come by power. It comes by genuine love and concern. It comes when you invest in the education of new generations." In this episode, Kassis reflects on war, displacement, pastoral witness, and hope in God's sovereignty from the middle of Lebanon's crisis. Together they discuss the civilian toll of the war, how religious fundamentalism operates across traditions, the Psalms and Habakkuk as tools for lament, and what American Christians can actually do. Together they ask what it means for the church to hold protest and hope together when cycles of war feel endless and religiously justified. Episode Highlights "It is not an operation. It is a war on Lebanon." "When power—whether political, military, financial, or technological—is sanctified by religious narratives that justify everything, that is what really bothers me." "No one cures and destroys with more passion than someone who believes that God is on their side." "When I think that these 85 children were killed mainly by American ammunition and weapons, I cannot comprehend this—even as a Christian and as a theologian." "Peace does not come by power. It comes by genuine love and concern. It comes when you invest in the education of new generations." About Riad Kassis Riad Kassis is a Langham Scholar from Lebanon and is deeply committed to global theological education. He has served as International Director of the International Council for Evangelical Theological Education (ICETE), Regional Director for Overseas Council, as well as visiting professor of Old Testament at The Arab Baptist Theological Seminary and Near East School of Theology in Beirut, and the Dean of the Program for Theological Education by Extension in Syria and Lebanon. Riad obtained his Bachelor of Arts in Economics in Damascus, Syria. He went on to obtain his Master of Divinity from Alliance Biblical Seminary, Manila, Philippines and Master of Theology from Regent College, Canada.

It is a war on Lebanon." 150 airstrikes in 24 hours; 550+ killed, 1,500+ injured, including 85 children 700,000 displaced; 200,000 children; many still on the streets of Beirut Schoolbooks and children's toys found in the rubble Christian village of Alma ordered to evacuate; mayor on television in tears A Catholic priest who stayed to help an injured family was killed in a second strike His wife Izdihar's center for Syrian refugee women and girls shut down; staff now distributing meals, mattresses, medical care in shelters Hoped the war could be avoided—feared it could not "When power—political, military, technological—is sanctified by religious narratives that justify everything, that is what really bothers me." Iranian author Shiha Dejani, herself a survivor of the Iranian regime: if your vision of liberation comes through destroying innocent lives, it is not freedom you are after Grew up admiring America as a beacon of democracy and discovery; that view has changed "When I think these 85 children were killed mainly by American ammunition, I cannot comprehend this—even as a Christian and as a theologian." "No one cures and destroys with more passion than someone who believes that God is on their side."

For those not working in the space this probably isn't on your radar, but the animal advocacy movement just secured a huge win with Ahold Delhaize, convincing the fourth-largest supermarket company in the US to set the strongest cage-free policy of any large US retailer: A roadmap with benchmarks to fully eliminate caged egg cartons, expand cage-free offerings, and increase the percentage of cage-free sales. A pledge to annually report on its progress. At all 2,000+ locations, placing large, promotional shelf tags in front of cage-free cartons to differentiate cage-free and caged cartons for consumers.  This was a giant campaign. My understanding is that other companies were watching to see if this campaign would succeed or fail, to see if they would need to follow suit. In addition to the animals helped, this win will add pressure for competitors to do the same. This was a coordinated effort among many groups, including: Center For Responsible Food Business; Animal Equality; International Council for Animal Welfare; The Humane League; Mercy For Animals; Compassion in World Farming; Coalition to Abolish the Fur Trade and Animal Activist Collective. Animal Equality states that this will affect 5-7 million hens.

Mackerel will soon be disappearing from the shelves of Waitrose as the supermarket says it's 'taking a stand against overfishing'. In September last year the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), recommended that North-east Atlantic Mackerel catches should be cut by 70% to help rebuild stocks to a sustainable level. But four countries which fish for Mackerel in the North East Atlantic cut their quota for 2026 by just 48% compared to the previous year. As a result, Waitrose has decided to suspend sourcing from the end of April. Fishing organisations in Scotland say they are disappointed and feel they have been unfairly penalised because - they say - the UK has led the way in trying to secure sustainable fishing for Mackerel.Anna Hill reports from a Cromer seafood processor who's experiencing a drop in the availability of Crabs following fishing disruption due to wind farm construction. It's been a worrying winter for poultry farmers, with cases of avian flu in England, Scotland and Wales. The Pirbright Institute's Head of Avian Virology updates us on what he describes as the 'third worst ever' epidemic of high pathogenicity bird flu in the UK, and reflects on what might lie ahead over the spring and summer. Cambridge University's vet school will not be closing after all. The University's governing body has rejected proposals to cease taking new entrants.Presenter: Anna Hill Producer: Sarah Swadling

Earlier this month the Trump administration revoked the endangerment finding, which gave the federal government a legal basis for regulating greenhouse gas emissions. The move is already being disputed in court. If the repeal is successful, who are the economic winners and losers?“How We Survive” host Amy Scott talks with Stanford professor Chris Field to unpack the history and legal implications of the endangerment finding and how its repeal – though framed as saving Americans money – could lead to higher costs and a competitive disadvantage for the U.S. Later in the episode we turn to one specific winner (or loser, depending on who you ask): the U.S. auto industry. Amy talks with Rachel Muncrief from the International Council on Clean Transportation to find out if market forces and global competition will continue to push carmakers to innovate on cleaner vehicles or if this could seriously slow progress.

WARBIRD RADIO - The seventeenth season of Warbird Radio opens not with spectacle, but with sobriety. Last year, during what should have been a routine flight in a P-51 Mustang, veteran airshow pilot Jim Pietz encountered one of aviation's most unforgiving emergencies: an in-flight fire. In an aircraft designed in the crucible of World War II, where systems are mechanical and margins can be thin, smoke in the cockpit is not an abstraction. It is immediate. It is disorienting. It is measured in seconds.What followed, as Pietz recounts in a candid conversation that anchors the 2026 premiere of Warbird Radio, was not improvisation but preparation. A former Chairman of the International Council of Air Shows, Pietz is widely regarded as a pilot's pilot — an instructor, mentor and trusted adviser to some of the most accomplished aviators in the airshow community. His response in that moment reflected decades of disciplined training and a deep familiarity with the performance characteristics of the airplane he was flying. What might have been instantly fatal became survivable.In the interview, Pietz resists dramatizing the event. There is no theatrical retelling, no indulgence in adrenaline. Instead, he speaks plainly about decision-making under pressure and the culture that makes such decisions possible. Warbirds, he notes, are neither forgiving nor sentimental machines. They reward precision and preparation; they expose complacency without hesitation.The conversation does not end with the emergency itself. Later in the season, Warbird Radio will return to the incident, widening the lens beyond the cockpit to examine maintenance practices, inspection culture and the sometimes uncomfortable but necessary candor that underpins safe operations. In a sector where aircraft are both historic artifacts and active flying machines, transparency is not merely professional courtesy. It is preservation.The episode opens, fittingly, on another front of stewardship. Josh Wells, executive director of Doc's Friends, joins the program to discuss the ongoing work of operating one of only two airworthy B-29 Superfortresses in the world, B-29 Doc. Keeping such an aircraft aloft is as much an exercise in organizational leadership as in mechanical aptitude. It requires volunteers, donors, logistical planning and an unrelenting commitment to standards that honor both history and safety.Wells outlines the aircraft's upcoming tour and the network of support that sustains it, underscoring a central truth of the warbird community: these airplanes do not fly by nostalgia alone. They fly because individuals accept responsibility — for systems, for teams and for the legacy embodied in aluminum and rivets.Taken together, the two conversations establish a theme for the season ahead. Whether confronting an emergency in a high-performance fighter or preparing a 141-foot wingspan bomber for public display, the work hinges on leadership under pressure and humility in preparation. The spectacle of flight may capture the public imagination, but it is the discipline behind the scenes that determines whether these aircraft endure.Season 17 begins there — in the seconds that matter, and in the steady work that makes those seconds survivable.#warbirdradio #warbirds #p51mustang #b29doc #b29Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/warbird-radio/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Fittingly, we have the chaplain who teamed up with Alex's team, so this is a continuation of many (off air) conversations over the last few years.Chaplain, Captain Conner J. Simms is an Chaplain assigned to the 412 Test Wing, Edwards Air Force Base, CA. He provides spiritual care and ensures the delivery of chaplain support to Airmen, Guardians, and DoD employees across two local area installations. As part of the wing staff at the 412 Test Wing, Chaplain Simms is tasked with advising command regarding the spiritual readiness, morale, ethics, and quality-of-life issues of all Air & Space Forces personnel and authorized DoD personnel.A native of Florida, Chaplain Simms currently resides in Edwards, CA, with his wife and young daughter.  He was commissioned as a Chaplain in April of 2018 and is endorsed by the International Council of Community Churches. Prior to his military service, Chaplain Simms spent over a decade in both local parish ministry and as an ICU/ER chaplain at a level one trauma medical center.He has served as a Traditional Reservist, IMA Reservists, & and now on Active Duty. His time in the ICU at an urban level one trauma hospital as well as two of his deployments (Kuwait – Operation Freedom's Sentinel, JBMDL – Operations Allies Welcome/Refuge) occured during the COVID pandemic. He also served as Lead Chaplain on a joint reserve mission in the Appalachian Mountains providing no-cost healthcare to the community.He is a three time graduate of Joint Special Operations University Chaplaincy programs, and is also a graduate of the Air Force Leader Development Course at Maxwell AFB, a course typically reserved for incoming squadron commanders and senior enlisted leaders. He has provided support to service members across six of the seven geographic combatant commands.One of our primary topics in this episode was the quantification of spirituality through the CHAMP-SOCOM Spiritual Fitness Scale, found here. You can also find a discussion of how to apply it here.

It's been more than a week since the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the mother of "Today" host Savannah Guthrie, and authorities have finally confirmed a suspect in the case. In a social media post on Feb. 12, the FBI called Nancy Guthrie's case a "kidnapping" and released photos of a black backpack and a person the agency described as a male about "5'9" - 5'10" tall, with an average build.

Understanding the value of nursing care in the US requires a shift, not only in policy, but in philosophy.  In this SEE YOU NOW Insight drawn from Episode 129: Investing in Nurses! Invisible to Invaluable, Pam Cipriano, immediate past president of the International Council of Nurses and former president of the American Nurses Association, explains how U.S. healthcare economics have historically obscured the value of nursing care. She argues that this isn't just a policy problem; it's a philosophical one, and that understanding and investing in nurses is essential to building a healthier, more sustainable healthcare system, and society.

Nurses are the scaffolding of our nation's health, and the foundation of our shared humanity, yet their work is still too often treated as invisible. In this episode we ask, what does it truly mean to invest in nurses, and what's at stake if we fail to act?  Join host Oriana Beaudet, Vice President of Innovation at the American Nurses Association, Credentialing Center, and Foundation for a conversation with nurse leader Pam Cipriano, Immediate Past President of the International Council of Nurses and former President of the American Nurses Association, about why nursing has been systematically undervalued in the U.S., how that shapes policy, economics, and care delivery, and what must change if we are to build a healthier, more humane future.  

In this episode of Let's Combinate: Drugs + Devices, host Subhi Saadeh continues the Combinating with ICH series by breaking down how the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines are organized and why that structure matters for drug and drug-device combination products.Subhi walks through the four main ICH guideline families, Quality (Q), Safety (S), Efficacy (E), and Multidisciplinary (M), and explains how each fits into the broader product lifecycle. The episode places particular emphasis on the Quality guidelines, which form the backbone of pharmaceutical development, manufacturing control strategies, and lifecycle management.Rather than a deep dive into requirements, this episode is designed to orient listeners to the full ICH landscape. It helps teams understand where different guidelines apply, who typically owns them, and how they collectively shape regulatory expectations. Future episodes in the series will explore individual Quality guidelines in detail.In this episode, you will learnWhat an ICH guideline is and how it differs from regulations and standardsWhy guidelines still matter during inspections and enforcementHow ICH organizes its guidance into Q, S, E, and M categoriesA high-level overview of the Quality Guidelines (Q1 through Q14), including:Stability (Q1)Analytical validation and development (Q2 and Q14)Impurities (Q3)Quality by Design and risk management (Q8 and Q9)Pharmaceutical Quality Systems and lifecycle management (Q10 through Q12)Continuous manufacturing (Q13)How different functional teams interact with different parts of the ICH frameworkThe next episode begins the deep dive into the Quality Guidelines, starting with ICH Q1 on Stability.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Series00:48 Overview of ICH Guidelines01:36 What an ICH Guideline Is and Is Not03:04 The Four ICH Guideline Categories04:08 Quality Guidelines Overview08:46 Safety Guidelines Overview09:28 Efficacy Guidelines Overview10:33 Multidisciplinary Guidelines Overview11:28 Wrap-Up and Next StepsSubhi Saadeh is a Quality Professional and host of Let's Combinate.

Episode #459: This is the third episode in a three-part series that emerged from a three-day Digital Storytelling Workshop hosted by Insight Myanmar Podcast, with support from ANU and IDRC. What began as a room of strangers slowly became a community through the simple act of sharing stories. We were reminded that communication is not just the exchange of information, but the creation of a shared emotional world, built through attention and care. “Tell me more” became our refrain, and this episode is an invitation to step into that circle. On this episode, you'll hear the result of those few transformative days: honest voices, emerging perspectives, and storytellers beginning to find their footing. First up is Chit Tun, a teacher and marketing manager before the coup, who now lives as a refugee in Thailand with his family. The 2021 coup transformed his life. With his wife pregnant, he refused to let his child grow up under dictatorship. He supported her CDM participation, and became a protest leader before joining the armed resistance. However, he became disillusioned with some resistance groups, and eventually fled to Thailand. To make ends meet, he aids fellow refugees, teaches Burmese, and produces a podcast amplifying revolutionary voices. Zue, a Burmese language teacher and artist, roots her work in the beauty of her rural childhood, where weaving looms, bullock carts, and open fields shaped her creative and educational passions. After years of volunteer teaching and curriculum work, she founded the online Akkhaya Burmese Language Institute during COVID-19. Her YouTube and podcast projects also advance cultural preservation and pride. She was Myanmar's sole recipient of the selective Global Ambassador Fellow granted by the International Council on Human Rights, Peace and Politics (ICHRPP). Zue hopes to continue her teaching and art work to better serve communities. August describes a shift from engineering to the study of religion and philosophy after becoming disillusioned with Myanmar's education system. His academic path grows out of his work as a gender and LGBTQ rights trainer, where he has seen religion repeatedly misused to justify discrimination. He argues that Buddhist teachings emphasize compassion, morality, and nonviolence, not stereotyping or exclusion, and he wants to ground this claim in textual and scholarly evidence. Drawing on experiences with LGBTQ individuals from religious communities, he highlights the heavy social pressure they face. August hopes education can challenge conservative mindsets and support social change.

The International Energy Agency says we'll burn through a record 8.85 billion tonnes of coal in 2025, the first overall increase in fifteen years.

Some of the most transformative solutions in global health emerge from one deceptively simple discipline: listening. In this SEE YOU NOW Insight, International Council of Nurses CEO Howard Catton, and ANA VP of Innovation Oriana Beaudet explore how the ICN Charter for Change, a straightforward, evidence-driven ten-point plan, was built directly from what nurses, associations, and communities say they need most. Together, they unpack how frontline wisdom can become global policy, how the foundational leadership skill in nursing of listening translates to shaping reform, and how advanced practice nursing models around the world are already reducing costs, improving outcomes, and proving what's possible when countries invest in nursing.  International Council of Nurses (ICN).

When it comes to battery electric trucks, is real-world data beating consumer expectations?  According to findings from The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT), the real-world driving range of heavy duty electric trucks is 10 to 20% better than what is communicated by truck manufacturers. It's an exciting finding — and one that could propel the decarbonization of freight forward.   To learn more, we sat down with Hussein Basma, Senior Researcher at the ICCT, for an eye-opening look at the electrification of Europe's heavy-duty trucking sector. From ambitious regulations to rapid advances in battery technology and charging infrastructure, you'll discover how the EU is driving toward decarbonizing freight — and what that means for the rest of the world.

Americans have a glum view of the economy, but that is not expected to affect their consumer spending as holiday shopping kicks off.     According to a recent Fox News survey, 76% of Americans have a negative view of the economy. At the end of President Joe Biden's term, this number was 70%. Yet while Americans appear to be losing faith in the vitality of the U.S. economy, they don't plan on slowing their own holiday shopping habits.     The International Council of Shopping Centers reports that between Thanksgiving Day and Cyber Monday, 235 million American adults are expected to spend $127 billion, for an average of $542 a person—a $13 increase from the average spent over the long holiday weekend last year.     Millennials are projected to be the biggest spenders, with the International Council of Shopping Center estimating the generation born between 1981 and 1996 will drop an average of $764 a person during the five-day shopping period.     So what's the disconnect? Why do the same Americans who feel the economy is flooding appear to feel good enough about their personal bank account to go out and drop several hundred dollars in just a few days? Nicole Huyer, a senior research associate in The Heritage Foundation's Thomas A.

Americans have a glum view of the economy, but that is not expected to affect their consumer spending as holiday shopping kicks off. According to a recent Fox News survey, 76% of Americans have a negative view of the economy. At the end of President Joe Biden's term, this number was 70%. Yet while Americans appear to be losing faith in the vitality of the U.S. economy, they don't plan on slowing their own holiday shopping habits. The International Council of Shopping Centers reports that between Thanksgiving Day and Cyber Monday, 235 million American adults are expected to spend $127 billion, for an average of $542 a person—a $13 increase from the average spent over the long holiday weekend last year. Millennials are projected to be the biggest spenders, with the International Council of Shopping Center estimating the generation born between 1981 and 1996 will drop an average of $764 a person during the five-day shopping period. So what's the disconnect? Why do the same Americans who feel the economy is flooding appear to feel good enough about their personal bank account to go out and drop several hundred dollars in just a few days? Nicole Huyer, a senior research associate in The Heritage Foundation's Thomas A. Roe Institute for Economic Policy Studies, joins this week's edition of “Problematic Women” to discuss. Also on today's show, we discuss spending differences between men and women. Plus, will New York City-Mayor elect Zohran Mamdani actually be able to implement his socialist wish list in the Big Apple?

In a moment marked by rising geopolitical instability, accelerating climate change, recurring pandemics, and deep economic uncertainty, nursing stands at a critical crossroads. The global nursing workforce is already under severe strain, and the World Health Organization projects a shortfall of approximately 4.5 million nurses by 2030. Yet, even as health needs become more complex, health funding is being reduced in many parts of the world while defense spending rises, deepening the resource constraints facing nurses and other frontline health workers.  So, what does it truly mean to invest in nursing?  For the International Council of Nurses, it means speaking value to power, making the case consistently and convincingly, that nurses are essential to the stability and well-being of individuals, families, communities, and entire nations. It means pushing forward despite workforce shortages, policy barriers, violence, and chronic underfunding. It means dismantling myths and hierarchies and advancing rigorous research to demonstrate the economic and societal return on educating, compensating, and recognizing nurses as the indispensable professionals they are.  In this episode, Oriana Beaudet, VP of Innovation at the American Nurses Association, Credentialing Center, and Foundation, connects with Howard Catton, the Chief Executive Officer of the International Council of Nurses, who is driving global efforts to support nurses at the ICN. Together, they explore the inventive strategies, advocacy work, and bold solutions shaping the future of nursing. And talk about what it means to meet global challenges with clarity, commitment, and heart.

In this episode, Andreas Bjørndal, an experienced homeopath with more than 45 years in practice, shares his reflections on healing, teaching, and the evolving landscape of homeopathy. He talks about how homeopathy found him through his early fascination with nature and healing, and how this path led him to found multidisciplinary clinics and guide future practitioners in Norway. Andreas explains key ideas such as the concept of polarity in remedies and the importance of understanding the dynamics of healing rather than focusing solely on individual remedies.   Episode Highlights: 06:17 - Journey into Homeopathy 09:14 - Significant Cases and Learnings 13:47 - Reflections on 45 Years of Practice 17:00 - Evolution of Homeopathy Over the Years 21:31 - Understanding Wholeness and Unity 27:03 - Polarity and Healing Processes 31:36 - The Healing Process Begins with Intention 35:12 - Developing a System of Archetypes 39:09 - Understanding Center and Periphery in Remedies 47:35 - Exploring the Depth of Provings 56:13 - Homeopathy and Consciousness 01:09:56 - The Concept of Oneness 01:27:32 - Case Study: Hashimoto's and Hearing Loss 01:38:13 - Visualizing Archetypes and Polarities   About my Guests: Curriculum Vitae Andreas N. Bjørndal   It is difficult to imagine a role in homeopathy, natural medicine, and integrative health that ANB has not held. For more than four decades, he has been at the very center of the profession—locally, nationally, and internationally.   He founded and led two of the most respected multidisciplinary clinics in Oslo, bringing together more than 20 practitioners across traditional, alternative, and integrative medicine. At the same time, he was a pioneer in education, serving for nearly two decades as Educational Director at the Norwegian Academy of Natural Medicine (NAN), where he shaped curriculum, developed innovative approaches to learning, and guided the majority of homeopaths, naturopaths, and veteropaths in Norway. He has been a teacher of virtually every aspect of homeopathy and naturopathy—ranging from materia medica and clinical practice to philosophy of science, rhetoric, and therapist development—for more than 40 years.   Internationally, he has been a tireless ambassador of the field. As Chairperson of the Norwegian Association of Homeopaths, the European Council of Classical Homeopathy, and the International Council of Classical Homeopathy, he has not only led but also initiated many of the most important organizational and professional structures we take for granted today. He helped establish the first European guidelines for homeopathic education, guidelines that are now recognized globally as the standard. His honorary membership in the Norwegian Association of Homeopaths reflects a lifetime of service to the professional community.   As a lecturer and course instructor, he has been invited around the world for more than four decades, holding seminars on homeopathy, integrative medicine, philosophy, self-development and spirituality. He has trained healthcare professionals—including medical doctors and nurses—on the role of homeopathy in patient care, and his advanced training programs for practitioners have influenced generations of therapists. Beyond medicine, he has guided groups through self-development processes, spiritual initiations, and even journeys of initiation in Egypt.   ANB has also contributed at the policy and research levels. He served on the Norwegian government's Aarbakke Committee, which laid the groundwork for the Act on Alternative Treatment, and on the Ministry of Health's working group on private import of medicines. He has published extensively—hundreds of articles in Norwegian and international journals in print and online, as long-standing contributions to the The Magic Happens Magazine and his own site Holonity. He has conducted frontier research both regarding methodology as well as exploring the healing potential of close to 200 new homeopathic remedies.   In short, ANB's career encompasses the whole spectrum of homeopathy: practitioner, teacher, researcher, author, international spokesperson, and organizational leader. He has carried the field forward with vision, dedication, and a rare ability to connect the scientific, the practical, and the spiritual dimensions of healing in an inspirational and unified way that makes it easy to understand and apply.   Find out more about Andreas Website: https://holonity.com/   If you would like to support the Homeopathy Hangout Podcast, please consider making a donation by visiting www.EugenieKruger.com and click the DONATE button at the top of the site.

Guest: Dr. Rachel MuncriefWhen we think about tackling climate change, it's easy to picture solar panels and wind farms. But there's another piece of the puzzle that impacts us all, every single day: how we get from point A to point B. Transportation accounts for a major share of global greenhouse gas emissions, but it's also an area of rapid innovation and urgent opportunity. From cleaner fuels in shipping lanes to electric trucks on highways, the road to a stable climate runs straight through the way we travel and transport goods. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Dr. Rachel Muncrief from The International Council on Clean Transportation, which is an organization leading the charge to transform global transportation systems with science-backed policy and practical solutions. We'll talk about where progress is being made, what challenges remain, and why rethinking transportation is critical for a climate-resilient future.

Malls hold a special spot in the hearts of many Americans of a certain age. One may have been the setting for your first date, the place you caught a now-classic summer blockbuster, or even a daycare of sorts after mom dropped you off with a few friends (and maybe a few bucks). In our last episode, we looked back at the history of Chicago's Ford City Mall and the heyday of mall culture in America: the 1980s and 1990s. In this episode, we look at how malls are doing today with Stephanie Cegielski, vice president of the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC). She says reports of the death of the mall are overblown, that malls are adapting to a new era by offering experiences, and that Gen Z is playing a large role in malls' resilience. Cegielski cites an ICSC survey of over 1,000 people aged 16-26 that found 60% of respondents say they visit malls just to socialize or meet friends, even if they don't need to purchase something specific. “We just asked them blankly, ‘Do you still go to the mall?'” Cegielski said. “And the short answer was yes.”
