The US invasion of Grenada in 1983 remains a pivotal event in both Caribbean and Cold War history. President Reagan, fearing the spread of communism in the Caribbean and the safety of US citizens, initiated military action. US forces launched a swift invasion, aiming to seize control of the island and restore order. However, the operation was fraught with challenges. Intelligence failures, miscommunication, and the chaotic nature of the military operation raised questions about the effectiveness of US planning and coordination. Internationally, the invasion was met with condemnation. The United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution denouncing the intervention as a violation of international law. Critics argued that the US had blurred the lines between humanitarian intervention and regime change, setting a dangerous precedent for future military actions. As history often shows, the smallest conflicts can have the most profound impacts, shaping policies and perceptions for decades to come. The story of Grenada is not just about a military operation; it serves as a poignant reminder of the intricate interplay between local politics and global power dynamics.

Kamille learned at a young age that not many businesses were interested in hiring a visually impaired employee. Oh yes, she presented very well on the phone with prospective employers, but when they saw her in person, the rejection came fast. She didn't even get a chance to prove them wrong.Again, Jackie her mom, didn't treat her blind daughter any differently than her other children. She had to learn the ways of the world at a very young age. Kamille would be the stronger for it. Kamille shared that her mother "NEVER let me use the word "can't," and that she taught her daughter "to advocate for herself."Kamille Richardson was born blind but never lacked a vision for a bright future. An author, motivational speaker, and founder of iSee Technologies, Inc., she has overcome various obstacles to build a life and career she loves. Not only is she an advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion, but she's constantly breaking corporate norms, shattering expectations, and reminding companies that diversity fuels business growth.Here's how Richardson fought against the odds to build her own company—and create more space for inclusion in some of the world's top companies.Raised to Believe in HerselfFrom a young age, Richardson knew she was different—but was raised not to see her disability as a weakness. “My mother never let me use the word ‘can't,'” Richardson recalls. Because her mother taught her to advocate for herself, growing up blind never deterred her dreams.“I was allowed to dream big,” she shares. “I always knew, even when I was younger, that I was going to overcome barriers in the best way I knew how. It wasn't always easy, of course, but I was determined.”Showing Up AuthenticallyWhen Richardson started applying for jobs, she received numerous interview invitations. However, a pattern quickly emerged.“They would see me, and they'd see that white cane in my hand—and the temperature would drop about 20 degrees,” she shares.*She looked great on paper, but once employers realized she was blind, their perception shifted.“Suddenly that warm greeting I got earlier became a cold conversation, and it always ended with the ‘Don't call us, we'll call you,'” she says. “The calls and emails never came.”Tired of rejection, she decided to say yes to herself. “I knew I had the power to hire me,” Richardson explains.*Her determination only grew as she stepped into the business world as a blind, Black entrepreneurial woman.*At first, she believed that fitting into corporate norms was the only way to succeed. “I thought I had to be very corporate, buttoned-up, and wear my power suit,” she admits. “But that's not me. When I tried to show up like that—stiff and stuffy—I wasn't comfortable in my own skin, and the doors still weren't opening.”Only when Richardson embraced her true self did things change.“I showed up with my big curly hair, my big earrings, and my colorful outfits—that's when people started seeing my personality first,” she shares.Building Her Own EmpireA self-described tech-savvy individual, Richardson adapted quickly to e-readers when the iPhone first launched them. Soon after, she founded iSee Technologies with the goal of helping her visually impaired and blind peers regain independence—particularly through employment.But her clients often faced the same rejections she once did.“I said to myself, ‘I need to evolve iSee Technologies to become part of the solution,'” Richardson says. “I decided to use my voice and my platform to go in and teach companies how to be more inclusive in their hiring and workplace culture—so when they see disability, they don't immediately reject it.”Today, iSee Technologies is a thriving business that offers people development consulting, accessibility services, and workforce wellness training to companies and government agencies. Their client list includes The Walt Disney Company, BASF, Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Kraft, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.Inclusion Is Good for BusinessHiring people from diverse backgrounds and abilities enhances innovation and team performance.“The biggest misconception is that accommodations for people with disabilities are expensive,” Richardson explains. “But 59% of accommodations cost nothing at all—and the other 41% cost less than $500.”Many businesses fail to see the value of disabled employees simply because they don't understand it.“We are some of the most creative and innovative team members you'll ever have,” she says. “We live in a world not designed for us, so we have to be the ultimate problem solvers.”-One of iSee Technologies' corporate clients saw this potential and hired Richardson to conduct training to empower their teams to create more accessible environments. As a result, employees felt more validated and respected—and more committed to their work.“And of course, when you have more engaged employees, that's definitely going to help your bottom line.” 7) Social Media Links/Website:FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/kamille.richardson.9INSTAGRAM: @kamillealia,https://www.instagram.com/kamillealia/LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/livewithvision/TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@lakilaj?lang=en OTHER: http://www.kamillerichardson.com/WEBSITE: https://www.iseetechinc.com/WEBSITE: https://kamillerichardson.com/ "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Emily Kircher-Morris chats today with Diane Dempster and Elaine Taylor-Klaus from Impact Parents, hosts of the Parenting with Impact podcast. They talk about the challenge of motivating neurodivergent kids, and break down why it's so challenging. The chat includes a framework called PINCH, a way to remember and think about important elements of motivation. You'll come away with practical strategies for parents to foster a supportive environment that encourages engagement, and ways to move away from fear and stress as motivators. TAKEAWAYS Traditional parenting advice often doesn't apply to neurodivergent kids. Motivation can be misunderstood; it's not always lack of interest. Executive functioning skills play a crucial role in motivation. Dopamine is essential for engaging in non-preferred tasks. Waiting until the last minute can be a legitimate strategy for motivation. Fear-based parenting creates stress and is not sustainable. Intrinsic motivation develops later in life, especially for neurodivergent individuals. The PINCH framework helps identify different motivators for kids. Novelty keeps the brain engaged and interested. Competition can motivate but may also cause anxiety in some children. Collaboration and connection with peers can enhance motivation. Parents should experiment with different motivational strategies. Transparency and vulnerability in parenting can build trust. If you'd like members of your organization, school district, or company to know more about the subjects discussed on our podcast, Emily Kircher-Morris provides keynote addresses, workshops, and training sessions worldwide, in-person or virtually. You can choose from a list of established presentations, or work with Emily to develop a custom talk to fit your unique situation. To learn more, visit our website. Elaine Taylor-Klaus and Diane Dempster co-founded ImpactParents.com in 2011 because traditional parenting advice wasn't working for their complex kids and they found no training or coaching available designed specifically to support them as parents of complex kids. Internationally recognized as leading parent educators, they use a coach-approach to help parents reduce the stress of raising children, teens, and young adults with ADHD, Anxiety, Autism, LD and more. They're the creators of Sanity School® behavior training, and the authors of many books including Parenting ADHD Now: Easy Intervention Strategies to Empower Kids with ADHD and The Essential Guide to Raising Complex Kids with ADHD, Anxiety and More.

This was the first email response SHLTMM received from Karina stating, "my mom and I have always been really close. She has always been super supportive of me wanting to pursue music. She always knew along with her late father that I would grow up to be musical because as a baby I would hum and sing songs before I was able to speak. I've been really blessed with great parents who both attend nearly every one of my performances since I first started performing. I'm very lucky to have a very supportive and close family."If truly was effortless speaking with Norma and Karina. Norma shared stories of her mother and father, both Armenian and both very present in her life, especially before and after Karina was born. As I mentioned earlier, Karina was a preemie baby and Norma was bed ridden in the hospital for a number of weeks before her daughter was born. Norma's mother , Karina's grandmother instilled confidence in her daughter and helped her stay strong during the tough times. Again, the pediatric doctor's told Norma that her baby may not make it to certain milestones, yet Norma was confident because of her mother's endless support and wisdom.

While the US proposes using these funds for post-war rebuilding, current plans risk spending the capital on immediate warfare, potentially undermining international financial trust. NUMBER 1 NATO AND EU SEEK DEFENSE FUNDS AMID FEARS OF RUSSIAN AGGRESSION Colleague Anatol Lieven. European nations like Finland are demanding funds to counter perceived Russian threats, despite a lack of historical aggression toward them. Lieven argues that plans to spend billions on tanks are misguided, as the Ukraine war demonstrates that expensive armor is easily destroyed by cheaper drones and defensive lines. NUMBER 2 CALIFORNIA JOB LOSSES AND CHINA'S ECONOMIC SLOWDOWN AMID RETAIL SEASON Colleague Chris Riegel. California's new wage mandates have triggered significant job losses in the fast-food sector, forcing operators to move to lower-tax states. Internationally, while China boasts of leads in AI and EVs, these sectors rely on unsustainable subsidies, masking a deep consumer recession and deflation in the property market. NUMBER 3 SPAIN'S GOVERNMENT MAINTAINS TIES WITH VENEZUELA DESPITE OPPOSITION Colleague Mary Anastasia O'Grady. The Spanish government under Pedro Sanchez maintains ideological and economic alliances with the Maduro regime, prioritizing political agendas over democratic ideals. Opposition figure Cayetana Alvarez de Toledo accuses former Prime Minister Zapatero of acting as an international agent for Maduro, facilitating the dictatorship's survival despite mass migration. NUMBER 4 CHINA'S SURREPTITIOUS SUPPORT KEEPS THE MADURO REGIME AFLOAT Colleague Professor Evan Ellis. China sustains the Maduro regime through loans, surveillance technology, and military equipment while bypassing sanctions to import Venezuelan oil. The state oil company, PDVSA, collapsed due to the purging of technical experts and lack of investment, forcing Venezuela to rely on Iranian engineers to maintain minimal production. NUMBER 5 VENEZUELA'S TRAGIC DECLINE FROM PROSPERITY TO AUTHORITARIANISM Colleague Professor Evan Ellis. Historical imagery reveals Venezuela's transformation from a prosperous, modern nation in the 1950s to a ruined state today. Deep inequality and corruption in the pre-Chavez era alienated the poor, allowing Hugo Chavez to capitalize on their frustration and dismantle the free market system, leading to the current crisis. NUMBER 6 ELECTIONS IN CHILE, PERU, AND HONDURAS SIGNAL REGIONAL SHIFTS Colleague Professor Evan Ellis. In Chile, José Antonio Kast's rise reflects a rejection of progressive policies and crime, favoring order and investment. Meanwhile, Peru faces political fragmentation and violence, Honduras struggles with electoral disputes, and Costa Rica appears poised to elect a pro-US candidate who aims to limit Chinese influence. NUMBER 7 ARGENTINA'S CREDIT RATING RISES AS BRAZIL FACES POLITICAL POLARIZATION Colleague Professor Evan Ellis. S&P upgraded Argentina's credit rating following Javier Milei's austerity measures, which have stabilized the currency and reduced inflation despite social costs. In Brazil, the reduction of Jair Bolsonaro's prison sentence and his son Flavio's candidacy signal a continued, polarized struggle against Lula da Silva's agenda for the 2026 election. NUMBER 8 ROMAN KINGSHIP: FROM CITIZEN SELECTION TO THE IDEAL OF SERVICE Colleague Professor Edward J. Watts. Early Roman kings were selected by citizens based on merit rather than heredity, but figures like Servius Tullius began bypassing this consent. Conversely, Cincinnatus exemplifies the Roman ideal of service; he accepted absolute dictatorial power to save the state during a crisis, then immediately resigned to return to his farm. NUMBER 9 APPIUS CLAUDIUS CAECUS: INFRASTRUCTURE AND POLITICAL GENIUS Colleague Professor Edward J. Watts. Appius Claudius Caecus transformed the Roman censorship office into a power base by building the Appian Way and appointing wealthy Italians to the Senate. As a blind elder statesman, he shamed the Senate into rejecting peace with Pyrrhus, insisting Rome must fight to maintain its dominance and ancestral legacy. NUMBER 10 ROME VS. CARTHAGE: DESTINY, TRAGEDY, AND THE CONSENSUS FOR WAR Colleague Professor Edward J. Watts. The conflict between Rome and Carthage is symbolized by the tragedy of Dido, representing the incompatibility of their powers. Despite Hannibal's devastating victories, the Roman Republic prevailed through a political system that prioritized consensus and collective sacrifice, allowing them to endure immense losses without surrendering. NUMBER 11 THE GRACCHI BROTHERS AND THE RISE OF POLITICAL VIOLENCE IN ROME Colleague Professor Edward J. Watts. The Gracchi brothers introduced political violence to Rome, with Tiberius using populism to revive his career and Gaius acting as a true believer in reform. Their assassinations by the Senate marked a departure from peaceful republican norms, as the elite used violence to protect entrenched economic inequality. NUMBER 12 DISCOVERY OF GIANT RADIO GALAXIES AND SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLES Colleague Dr. Sabayashi Pal. Astronomers have discovered 53 giant radio galaxies, some 75 times larger than the Milky Way, powered by active supermassive black holes emitting radio jets. These ancient objects offer insights into galactic evolution, contrasting sharply with the Milky Way's smaller, dormant black hole that allows life to exist safely. NUMBER 13 INVESTING IN HUMAN INTELLECT OVER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Colleague Dr. Sabayashi Pal. Given an unlimited budget, Dr. Pal would prioritize human resource development over new telescopes, proposing a space study institute in Africa to train experts. He argues that while AI is a useful tool, education is essential for humans to interpret data and appreciate the machinery rather than being replaced by it. NUMBER 14 EUROPE SCROUNGES FOR FUNDS AMID RUSSIAN ASSET DISPUTES Colleague Michael Bernstam. The UK threatens to seize proceeds from the sale of Chelsea FC for Ukraine aid, while the EU struggles to finance a $135 billion shortfall for Kyiv. European leaders propose leveraging frozen Russian assets for loans, but financial markets remain skeptical of the EU's ability to guarantee such debt. NUMBER 15 CONGRESSIONAL SPENDING AND THE REVERSE MIDAS TOUCH Colleagues Dave Hebert and Peter Earle. Hebert and Earle argue that Congressional spending exacerbates problems in education and healthcare by subsidizing demand while restricting supply through regulations. They contend politicians prefer "showy" supply-side interventions, like drug busts, over effective policies because the politics of appearing effective outweigh the economics of actual affordability. NUMBER 16
In this episode of What's New with ME, host Ali Mehdaoui breaks down the stories everyone is talking about — with context, clarity, and zero political shouting.We unpack the shocking Hot 97 shakeup, where Ebro in the Morning and his crew were let go, and what this means for the future of radio, hip-hop culture, and media power shifts.Then, we celebrate the New York Knicks winning the NBA Cup, what it signals for the franchise, and whether this marks a true turning point for New York basketball.On the economic front, we analyze the latest U.S. jobs report showing a decline, how it contrasts with election-year promises of job growth, and what economists say is really happening behind the numbers.Plus — a true “WTF humanity” moment as a Japanese woman reportedly marries an AI chatbot. Is this satire, social commentary, or a glimpse into the future of human-technology relationships?Internationally, tensions rise as new U.S. sanctions on Venezuela spark military and geopolitical concerns, and we explain what's signaling versus what's actually at stake.We close with reactions to Suzie Wiles' comments about President Trump's personality, why they sparked controversy, and how modern politics increasingly frames leadership through psychology rather than policy.This is What's New with ME — where headlines get context, not outrage.

New data published by LinkedIn has revealed that labour markets across EMEA slackened in October, highlighting the growing competition professionals face to secure a new job. Job seekers are instead countering this trend by reducing their search intensity in favour of "job hugging" - the trend of staying put. In Ireland, job search intensity - the ratio of applications to applicants - fell by -3.9% year-on-year in October, over double the rate of decline in several EMEA-LATAM countries during the month, averaging at -1.5% YoY. Only the United Kingdom (down -9.4% YoY), France (-5.6%), and Germany (-4.4%) recorded higher falls than Ireland. Ireland continues to lead the way on flexible work Hybrid work remains the most popular flexible working option offered by companies in Ireland, with 37.3% of all job postings in October offered as hybrid. Ireland ties with the United Kingdom for the highest availability of hybrid across EMEA, above the average of 30.8% of job postings advertised as hybrid across the region during the same period. Ireland also ranks highly for pure remote positions, placing second in EMEA with 8.2% of all job postings offering the opportunity to work exclusively from home. Ireland ranks second only to the UK (8.6%) and also surpasses the European average (5.3%.) Remote roles remain some of the most in demand jobs, making up 14.7% of job applications in EMEA. Demand in Ireland was higher, with applications for remote jobs making up almost one in five (18.4%) job applications. Green talent more likely to land jobs LinkedIn's Green Skills Report 2025 has also revealed green talent is far more likely to secure a job, getting hired at a global rate of 46.6% above the global hiring rate. Across the world, Energy Management is the fastest-growing green skill category. The proportion of LinkedIn members that added this skill was 17.4% higher in 2025 than in 2024. A spike in AI-driven demand for energy and continued growth in renewable energy supply has led to these skills growing particularly quickly in the Technology, Information and Media and Utilities sectors. Commenting on the data, LinkedIn Ireland Country Manager Cara O'Leary said: "Internationally and in Ireland, we are seeing a trend where more workers are opting to stay in their current roles rather than actively seeking new opportunities. This is down to a more competitive jobs market as companies advertise fewer roles. This is coming through in our data where we have observed a decline in job search intensity, which fell by nearly 4% year-on-year in October. "At the same time, Ireland continues to stand out as a leader in flexible work, with hybrid roles now accounting for more than one-third of all job postings. Remote opportunities also remain highly sought after, with Irish workers applying to them at even higher rates than the European average. Flexibility continues to be a key differentiator for companies seeking to attract and retain the best talent. "Internationally and in Ireland, we're also seeing real momentum around green skills, with talent in this space being hired at rates well above the global average. As demand for sustainability and energy-related expertise accelerates, Irish professionals who invest in these skills will be exceptionally well positioned for the future." See more stories here.

Internationally he's represented Canada at the World Juniors, World Championships, World Cup of Hockey, and the 4 Nations Face-Off. DeBoer has presented twice at TCS Live, including his 2023 presentation on Teaching Offensive Zone Principles.

On this episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Ashe in America break down a wide range of developments shaping the national and global landscape. The show opens with California power shutoffs blamed on wind and climate policy, before moving into cannabis rescheduling, Big Pharma interests, and the politics behind public safety narratives. The hosts dig into revelations that DC crime statistics were allegedly manipulated to downplay violent crime, unpack media hit pieces targeting the Trump White House, and analyze ongoing lawfare and propaganda tactics.

India's rural areas are developing at an extraordinary rate, and it poses both challenges and extraordinary opportunities to rethink development at a large scale. Across the OECD, over nine in ten households are now connected to the Internet, but in rural regions connectivity still lags behind, with only about 89% of rural households having even a basic broadband connection. https://www.oecd.org/en/publications/2024/11/oecd-digital-economy-outlook-2024-volume-2_9b2801fc.html India reflects these contrasts in its own way, but the speed of change is remarkable. Over the four years ending in December 2024, internet penetration in rural India surged from 59% to 78%, a jump that outpaced urban growth, which rose from 77% to 90% over the same period. https://telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/industry/indias-rural-subscribers-to-primarily-drive-arpu-growth-in-fy26-crisil/121130745 Recorded live from the OECD Rural Development Conference in Rio de Janeiro, Shayne MacLachlan speaks with Shahid Iqbal Choudhary, Secretary to the Government in the Department of Rural Development and Panchayati Raj, about how India's fascinating track-record of rural transformation can offer practical lessons to policymakers everywhere. Tune in to hear how one of the world's most dynamic rural transformations is unfolding and what it means for the future of development. Dr. Shahid currently serves as Secretary to the Government, Department of Rural Development and Panchayati Raj (Local Self-Government). Over the course of his distinguished public service career, he has held several key leadership positions, including Secretary, Tribal Affairs, J&K Government; CEO, Mission Youth J&K; Managing Director, Skill Development & Livelihood Initiatives; and multiple tenures as District Development Commissioner/District Magistrate in Srinagar, Rajouri, Bandipora, Leh, Udhampur, Kathua, and Reasi. He has also served as Additional Secretary in the Chief Minister's Office, Director, Information & Public Relations, Managing Director, J&K Tourism Development Corporation, Additional Secretary, Planning & Development, Special Officer, Relief & Reconstruction Leh, and SDM Nowshera. Internationally, Dr. Shahid is recognized as a resource person on mobile indigenous communities, transhumance, and migration. He is a member of the UN Working Group for the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists and has represented India in international collaborations on pastoralism and migratory indigenous peoples in Albania (2021), Ethiopia (2021), and Italy (2022). As Public Affairs and Communications Manager, Shayne engages with policy issues concerning SMEs, tourism, culture, regions and cities to name a few.

This is the email Melissa wrote to me after I had asked a little bit about the facts of she and her mother's relationship:Dr. Melissa Bird, "My relationship with my mom was complicated when I was younger. My father committed suicide when I was 6 and it broke my mothers heart. My childhood was chaotic and often violent, and yet my mom loved me the best she could with her shattered heart. I was a rebellious teenager and angry about so many things. It wasn't until 2017 when I was on a retreat in Scotland that I realized that my mom was a broken hearted woman, like so many of us who have had our lives shattered when our partners break our hearts. My mom's loving and compassionate soul is why I am the woman I have become today. Rather than seeing her as weak, as I did when I was younger, I realize that my mom is strong and powerful. She has shown me that even through the largest of heartbreaks, one can still carry on and make one's way in the world. I am the leader I am today because my mom always supported my crazy ideas, my drive to succeed, and even when I tried to push her away, my mom never gave up on loving me. She is one of my best friends and a true hero to me." My mom was adopted and my grandmother shaped who she and I both are. That might be another thread you want to tug at and if we don't have time, I know how fast 30 minutes goes because of my own podcast, that might be a different interview you want to do with her.My name is Dr. Melissa Bird and I am so glad you are here. I am a lay preacher, public speaker, author and podcaster.-I inspire personal understanding through contemplation, help people use their intuition to change their lives and communities, and encourage the healing of grief and loss through spiritual connection.-I live and work in Corvallis, Oregon where I can often be found drinking Earl Gray tea with heavy cream while reading and waxing poetic about the beauty of life and love.*If you are looking to connect with an amazing and phenomenal human, who loves inspiring change in our lives and our ocmunities, the you are in the right place.*As a facilitator for groups and individuals, I push you to do the hard work, turn towards things that scare you and remind you that humor and love are the keys for transformation.Melissa is very direct, "I cut right to the chase and challenge you to show up as the VERY BEST version of yourself. Whether it is through a 1:1 divination session or in a group of colleagues or friends, what I am able to do through my teaching gives you the hope you need in a world that feels so challenging and difficult.

CannCon and Chris Paul close out the week by breaking down a sprawling news cycle that exposes the growing tension between federal authority, activist judges, and collapsing global narratives. They start with DHS touting thousands of illegal-alien arrests in Los Angeles before a federal judge moves to block Trump's National Guard deployment, sparking a deeper discussion on constitutional authority, invasion definitions, and state defiance. The conversation moves through Supreme Court battles over the administrative state, birthright citizenship, and the broader implications of courts prioritizing “practical concerns” over constitutional law. Internationally, they dissect Venezuela's escalating drama, Maria Corina Machado's controversial escape to Norway, accusations of NGO-driven human trafficking, and the long-running CIA entanglements in Latin America. The hosts also connect NATO's renewed World War rhetoric, Ukraine's nuclear-risk allegations, renewed biolab scrutiny, vaccine narrative reversals, and Trump's moves on marijuana policy into one overarching theme: the old information spell is breaking. A dense, high-signal episode tying lawfare, geopolitics, propaganda, and power into a single, unraveling thread.

RxSense, a leading US healthcare technology company delivering pharmacy benefits solutions and savings on prescription costs, has announced the opening of its European office in Dublin. This expansion represents a strategic investment in Ireland's talent and innovation ecosystem and will support the continued growth and scale of the company's US operations. Over the next two years, RxSense plans to hire 75 full-time engineering and product roles in Dublin. The team will play a central role in supporting the company's mission to make prescription medicines more affordable, a challenge in the United States, where 1 in 5 US adults have not filled their prescriptions due to cost. RxSense is addressing this challenge by transforming pharmacy benefits through technology, building cloud-based platforms that deliver transparency and efficiency. The new Dublin centre will help develop the next generation of RxSense products that simplify healthcare, advance AI innovation and strengthen collaboration across product, engineering and design teams. Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment Peter Burke: "RxSense's decision to establish its first European office in Dublin is very welcome news and I thank the company for its commitment to creating 75 high-quality tech jobs. This investment is a strong vote of confidence in Ireland's world-class talent and thriving innovation ecosystem. RxSense's presence here will not only strengthen our position as a global leader in healthcare technology but also contribute to the development of solutions that make healthcare more accessible.

We are live from the Bleed Los Podcast as Drea, Anthony and Cody get you ready for the start of the Winter Meetings. The Dodgers enter the week with major decisions ahead and we break down what the team needs and what we want to see happen. We react to the Hall of Fame results where Jeff Kent finally gets in, but Fernando Valenzuela is left out again. He will not be eligible again until 2031 and Dodgers fans are frustrated. We discuss why Fernando continues to be overlooked. Teoscar Hernandez's name keeps popping up in trade conversations. Reporters Fabian Ardaya, Katie Woo and Bob Nightingale have all mentioned him. Does a trade make sense? Would the Dodgers really do it? If so, who replaces him? We also react to Dave Roberts saying Teoscar is the everyday right fielder “right now” and Brandon Gomes pushing back on the rumors. Free agent notes: The Dodgers likely aren't favorites for Cody Bellinger, Edwin Diaz or Kyle Tucker. Instead they prefer Harrison Bader and Robert Suarez. Smart moves or settling? We give our thoughts. Internationally, we discuss the biggest storyline of them all: Shohei Ohtani's role with Team Japan at the World Baseball Classic. Will he play? Will he pitch? What does this mean for the Dodgers heading into 2026? We react to Dave Roberts' comments and what they signal. Roki Sasaki's appearance on Japan's preliminary WBC roster adds even more intrigue, and we break down what that might look like for him. Plus, we share our conversation with Tommy Edman from this weekend's meet and greet. He updated us on his ankle, talked about team chemistry and reflected on helping Clayton Kershaw close out his final season. Join us live and drop your questions in the chat.

THANK GOODNESS HER MOM AND DAD HAD THE WHERE WITH ALL, FINANCIAL ABILITY AND GOOD COMMON SENSE TO HAVE HER TESTED BY A PROFESSIONAL. DR. ROXIE WAS THEN OFFICIALLY DIAGNOSED AS BEING DYSLEXIC. ACCORDING TO THE OXFORD LANGUAGES DICTIONARY, THIS IS THEIR DEFINITION OF DYSLEXIA-"a condition of neurodevelopmental origin that mainly affects the ease with which a person reads, writes, and spells, typically recognized as a specific learning disorder in children." DR. ROXIE EXPLAINS HOW "THIS EVENT CAUSED SO MUCH ANXIETY. IF NOT FOR MY MOTHER AND FATHER, ROXANNE WOULD HAVE BEEN PUT IN A SPECIAL SCHOOL OR WORSE, SHE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN LOST IN THE SHUFFLE. WITH AN INCREDIBLE WILL TO LEARN AND HER PARENTS ENCOURAGEMENT, "THEY HELPED THEIR DAUGHTER GROW WITH A COMMITMENT NOT ONLY FOR SELF DISCOVERY BUT ALSO USE OF HER OWN AGENCY." THEY TAUGHT THEIR DAUGHTER TO USE MENTAL SKILLS OF VISIONING AND TAUGHT HER HOW TO ACHIEVE HER GOALS IN LIFE."SHE WAS COMPLETELY PRESENT TO EACH AND EVERYONE OF US," REFERRING TO HERSELF AND HER TWO SIBLINGS. "SHE KNEW TO TAKE US ONE ON ONE AND NOT TOGETHER," DR ROXIE EXPLAINS. HER MOM CALLED IT "LOVING TIME."THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO THIS STORY.

A MOTHER WHO WAS ABLE TO STAY HOME AND CARVE OUT ONE-ON-ONE TIME WITH HER DAUGHTERS.

DALEO PhD:I help children and parents reduce anxiety naturally using expressive arts, mind-body tools, and evidence-based stress-reduction practices.As a Harvard-trained specialist with over 25 years of experience, my work bridges psychology, expressive arts, and integrative wellness. I've supported thousands of families, educators, and practitioners seeking non-drug, practical ways to calm the nervous system and strengthen emotional resilience.My mission is simple: raise a generation of calm, confident children—naturally.I create programs, workshops, and guided experiences that give families proven tools to navigate anxiety, boost self-regulation, and reconnect to creativity and inner wisdom. My approach blends neuroscience, storytelling, imagery, and somatic practices to help children feel safe, seen, and empowered.I work with:• Parents seeking natural strategies for anxious children• Educators, counselors, and child-focused practitioners• Organizations committed to child mental health + wellness• Families looking for expressive arts–based tools to thriveIf you're dedicated to the wellbeing of children and want to integrate mind-body practices into daily life, you'll love this episode! Hummingbird youtube video for kids:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBmtpqqp63EThe most common reaction to the good things that happen in life is to try to hold on, hold on tighter, making every effort to have that good stay and wall out the bad stuff.Try as we may, we don't want anything bad to happen to us -whatever “bad” is! And-if that bad thing does happen, we'll say:”This is a very bad, horrible, terrible thing!”Rather than, suspending judgement and saying to yourself: “This is interesting...could be bad, could be good.” In this video, you learn how to have a soft touch to all emotions in your life.

On this Midweek Show the host opens with a spirited "Word on Word" scripture segment and checks in on an alarming December deep freeze predicted across much of North America. He urges listeners to prepare practically and to build community ties in the face of severe weather. The episode then dives into immigration and domestic security concerns, including a short clip of Secretary Noem on alleged visa fraud linked to Somali immigrants in Minnesota. The host reviews claims about welfare dependency, alleged visa fraud rates, and money-laundering concerns while criticizing local leadership. He also discusses explosive allegations raised in the broadcast about Representative Ilhan Omar, framed as issues the host believes deserve scrutiny. Turning to law enforcement and intelligence, the show plays a clip from Kash Patel defending recent FBI results and highlighting arrests, child recoveries, counter‑intelligence wins and fentanyl interdictions. The host praises some operational outcomes but expresses frustration that, despite years of alleged corruption, there have been few high‑profile prosecutions or "perp walks." He questions timing and accountability while weighing anonymous-source journalism versus measurable results. On the economy the program covers optimistic fiscal claims: projected large tariff-funded tax refunds, talk of lowering or eliminating income tax, and a new initiative to seed investment accounts for children (including a multi‑billion pledge from private industry). The host calls the child‑savings idea promising while contrasting it with what he sees as worrying Canadian fiscal decisions. Internationally the episode critiques Canadian policy moves (a major pension fund investment overseas, proposed hate‑speech legislation, and defense commitments) and plays clips from NATO leadership and a Treasury official about increased European pledges to buy U.S. military equipment. The host interprets higher NATO spending as a U.S. arms windfall and argues many Western economies are being strained by sustained war support, while also suggesting Ukraine has become a financial laundromat tied to wider geopolitical interests. Venezuela, drugs and the use of military force are also discussed: the host highlights presidential comments telegraphing strikes on drug networks and extractive facilities, and warns that war — or other extreme measures — remains a real risk as global tension escalates. He frames these developments in a larger narrative about a battle between "dark and light," technocratic control, and the potential for large‑scale destabilizing events. Near the end of the episode the host announces a temporary shift in production: he will scale back video (Rumble) shows to focus on long‑running projects, continue regular Podbean episodes when possible, and promises occasional spot updates. He invites listeners to a nightly prayer meeting on Telegram, asks for support in spreading the show, and closes with a personal exhortation to love God and neighbors and to strengthen local community ties. This episode mixes news clips, political commentary and personal updates. Listeners can expect passionate opinion, clip‑based analysis (including voices from Secretary Noem, Kash Patel and NATO/treasury officials), broad international and domestic policy discussion, and practical calls for community preparedness and faith‑based action.

My guest wrote to me saying "even as a child , my mother had me researching at the library and writing essays on various topics! I went on to pursue higher education and become a teacher, and after retiring from a successful and rewarding career, I went on to write an award winning spiritual fiction and a prominently endorsed 5-book series (in addition to contributing to numerous anthology books." Dr. Foderaro continues, "I am passionate about handling life's challenges with goodness, compassion, honesty and love. I talk about surviving Family Trauma which initially led to being open to the Universe's signs and synchronicities, and then eventually led to my writing to heal and becoming an author.From a young age, Marni's mother, Elizabeth Ann, taught her daughter many lessons. Often these recurring lessons were meant to instill creativity, discipline and motivation, all skills that Marni says were helpful when becoming a teacher. For example, Marni shares the story of when she was a child and wanted her first ten speed bicycle and many more. Her mother was steadfast and had specific reasoning as to how Marni could get that bike. You'll have to listen to the show to get all the details. Just so you know, both Marni and her mother were writers and teachers."My mother was a lover of words and extremely witty and intelligent. She grew up in Florida and North Carolina. She got her Masters Degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in an era and area of the United States which typically was unheard of for women, continues Marni. Before completing her Masters, Elizabeth Ann was a high school English teacher in Broward Co., Florida and went on to teach English at Stetson University at DeLand, Florida." Marni is convinced that her mom had tremendous family support and encouragement as a young lady, otherwise "there's no way she could have achieved all that she did" reflects Dr. Foderaro.Marni has many wonderful stories to share about her mother and how she encouraged and supported her as a child and how her mother still influences her today. " I know my mom was a huge part of who I am."Foderaro admits that her upbringing was unconventional compared to her peers. It was the 60's and she and her two younger brothers had plenty of freedom. The kids were often on their own, left to raise themselves, yet plenty of time to be creative. Her father was a college professor. "The freedom had pros and cons", says Foderaro, "I didn't get guidance for many things, it was bittersweet. I was often striving for structure and discipline and I grew up being very organized which helped me with my teaching career." More from Marni's Bio:Marni's life was forever changed after experiencing numerous trauma-induced STEs-Spiritually Transformative Encounters. Marni's 2020 Best Books Award Winning Spiritual fiction “God Came to My Garage Sale” is prominently endorsed by James Redfield, best selling author of “The Celestine Prophecy” series of books and founding directors of IANDS (International Association for Near Death Studies). Marni's latest prominently endorsed 5-book series is entitled: “True Deceit False Love” addresses Domestic Violence, Narcissistic Abuse, Parental Alienation and Intergenerational Family Trauma.Marni is a lover of animals, nature, music and world travel who handles life's challenges with love and compassion. She values honesty, integrity, equality and goodness and prays for peace on earth. In addition to her speaking engagements and various writing endeavors, Foderaro is a contributing author to numerous anthology books, including: “The Last Breath,” “The Evolution of Echo,” “We're All In This Together: Embrace One Another,” “The Ulti-MUTT Book for Dog Lovers” and “bLU Talks Presents” (Business, Life and the Universe.) In January 2022 Marni was inducted into the Bestselling Authors International Organization.

Send us a textIn this episode of Leave Your Mark, I'm honoured to welcome one of the most iconic defenders in NHL history — Zdeno Chara.Zdeno, born in Slovakia, played 24 seasons in the National Hockey League with the New York Islanders, Ottawa Senators, Boston Bruins, and Washington Capitals. Standing at 6'9", “Big Zee” is the tallest player ever to compete in the league — but his impact stretched far beyond physical stature.As Captain of the Boston Bruins for 14 seasons, Zdeno led with humility, discipline, and purpose. He won the Norris Trophy in 2009, appeared in three Stanley Cup Finals, and raised the Cup in 2011 — becoming one of only five European-born captains to ever do so. Over 1,600 NHL games, he built a reputation for professionalism, integrity, and a relentless work ethic.Internationally, he represented Slovakia with pride, earning two silver medals at the World Championships. In 2022, he retired as a Boston Bruin and will have his number, 33, raised to the rafters in January 2026. Most recently, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.Beyond the accolades, Zdeno is a devoted husband to Tatiana and a father to three young children — and in this conversation, he opens up about leadership, resilience, growth, family, and what it means to evolve beyond the game.This is a special one.

BEFORE TURNING TWENTY, MY GUEST EXPERIENCED AND INDULGED IN MORE IN THE LA AREA, THAN MOST PEOPLE IN A LIFETIME. MUSICIAN, CREATIVE, STORYTELLER AND WRITER, JENNIFER FINCH, WAS REMOVED FROM HER ADOPTIVE MOTHER'S HOME AT 11 YEARS OLD. SHE BECAME ASTUTE AT RUNNING AWAY FROM HOME BY THE AGE OF 13. AND AT 14, SHE GOT INTO DRUGS AND PUNK ROCK. SHE ADORED HER MOTHER WHO STRUGGLED WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUESAND JENNIFER SAYS “IT WAS A TIME WHEN WOMEN WERE PUNISHED FOR EXPLORING OTHER WAYS TO LIVE THEIR LIVES OUTSIDE OF THE NORM.” JENNIFER FINCH IS THE BASS PLAYER AND VOCALIST IN THE SEMINAL PUNK BAND “L7.” L7 MADE THEIR TELEVISION NETWORK DEBUT ON THE DAVID LETTERMAN SHOW IN 1992, THEY HIT THE TOP 10 MUSIC CHART IN THE SAME YEAR. OCTOBER 2, 2025, L7 CELEBRATED THEIR 40TH ANNIVERSARY AT THE BELASCO THEATRE IN LOS ANGELES. TODAY, WITH DECADES OF LIFE EXPERIENCE UNDER HER BELT,JENNIFER LOVES EXPLORING BIG IDEAS, RECOVERY, HOW TO MAKE CHANGE IN THE WORLD, SELF DEVELOPMENT,ART, SPIRITUALITY AND MORE. It's was such a pleasure meeting Jennifer. She"s real and down to earth. She's experienced a lot of life, especially at a young age and today she can look back with acceptance and wise reflection.My guest was born at the Salvation Army center for Unwed Mothers in Los Angeles. As an adoptee, she has a wonderful perspective on family. She shares "family is built on love and not necessarily anything else." She spent a lot of time as a small baby and young child with other adopted children. Her parents told her that "some babies come from mommy's tummies and some do not. Family is family." Being adopted doesn't define Jennifer. Her parents split up after seven years. Her mother was experiencing mental wellness issues, social pressure issues and Jennifer was exposed to extreme behavior. Eventually, Jennifer did find her biological mother and her half sisters. "Curiosity, being open minded and humble" are Jennifer's super powers. "Sandy's resentment," Jennifer believes, "actually helped me to become more and have more acceptance and meet people where they're at instead of forcing narratives of how they should behave."Sandy gave Jennifer many gifts, including the gift of understanding, compassion, the gift of wonderment, life is nuanced and that life isn't always convenient." Throughout her childhood/life she learned the importance of how to maintain friendships and the significance of showing up for other people.Jennifer has been sober for thirty five years.

Internationally, there is often a large gap in the resources between countries. The Catechism explains the justice and solidarity that should exist among all nations, rich and poor. Rich nations have a duty of solidarity, charity, and justice to support nations who are unable to fully ensure their own development. Fr. Mike emphasizes that direct aid is not all the Church advocates for, but that we also have a duty to help reform these nations. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2437-2442. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/ciy Please note: The Catechism of the Catholic Church contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.
