Jon Kol is a Co-founder at Hyperlane, the open interoperability framework to connect anywhere onchain. Why you should listen Hyperlane is the “open interoperability framework” that lets any blockchain—whether an L1, rollup, app‑chain, or VM—talk to any other, permissionlessly. Think of it as the universal plumbing for cross‑chain apps, assets, and arbitrary messages, already live on 140+ chains and five VMs. At its core, Hyperlane uses Mailbox contracts on each chain as send/receive endpoints. When you dispatch a message, it's slotted into a Merkle tree; off‑chain relayers pick it up, bundle the proof, and submit it to the destination's Mailbox, where it's verified and delivered to your target contract Security is modular thanks to Interchain Security Modules (ISMs). You can choose default multisig sets, compose prebuilt ISMs, or even craft custom ones to suit your risk appetite. That means you decide how many validator signatures you need or even plug in your own validator network—no one‑size‑fits‑all guardrails here Beyond pure messaging, Hyperlane offers Warp Routes—its native, no‑slippage token bridges. Lock your token on Chain A, mint a wrapped version on Chain B, and reverse when you bridge back. All managed by the same mailbox/ISM infrastructure for consistency and security Developers get robust tooling: TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go SDKs, CLI commands, Terraform modules—and an Explorer to track message status. Want interchain accounts? Execute contracts on remote chains from a single signer. Need cross‑VM swaps? Hyperlane's got EVM↔SVM covered. HYPER (the native token) powers staking, validator incentives, governance, and expansion rewards. With a 1 B supply over 25 years and liquid staking via stHYPER, it aligns long‑term builders with protocol security and growth. If you're building the next multi‑chain DeFi, game, or governance tool, quitting the single‑chain mindset starts here.

Send us a textISMS that Poison the Soul Materialism | Part 3Senior Pastor Keith StewartMay 11, 2025Materialism is not about the amount, it's about our attitude. When Jesus addressed materialism in the Sermon on the Mount, He spoke of necessities not luxuries. He also gave us the surest sign of materialism and that's worry. This Sunday, we'll learn how to be set free from this toxic “ISM”.__________Discussion Questions: 1. Some Christians define sin in terms of sinful acts (observable external behaviors). In this way, we are much like the Pharisees who did the same. But Scripture has always been careful to define sin primarily as desires gone awry – that our internal want is broken. So whether you're talking about lust, greed, or coveting, before we ever commit an external act, we crave something internally first. Why do some Christians define sin in terms of external observable acts alone? Why are we so reluctant to admit that our desires are the real problem? Why do we try to justify our coveting or explain it away? Why do we only deal with the fruit instead of the root?2. Rate yourself as a worrier. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being “not worried at all” and 10 being debilitating worry. Where would you put yourself on that scale? What tends to be your biggest worries? What, if anything, did you learn in today's message that might help you better deal with worries when they arise? 3. Real wealth is determined not by our houses, cars or money in the bank but by our character, contentment, generosity and relationships. Why do these things matter more than the other things? Have you known people who were rich in one or more of these areas? What were they like? What did you learn from them? How do they inspire you to be rich where it counts? 4. To be truly rich in relationships is to be rich in our friendships, marriage and with God. Where are you strongest? Where are you weakest? What practical steps can you begin to take to make incremental improvements in all of your relationships? 

esta palestra memorável, Haroldo Dutra mergulha na essência das parábolas de Jesus, com foco especial na "Parábola do Semeador". Ele inicia diferenciando o uso e a interpretação do texto bíblico, mostrando que muitas vezes o evangelho é citado sem o devido contexto, o que pode levar a interpretações superficiais. Haroldo lembra que interpretar requer conhecer a cultura, a língua e o contexto histórico dos textos sagrados.

This was a Friday crossword, and even a casual glance through the clues and grid makes it clear that co-constructors Willa Angel Chen Miller and Erik Agard are dialing up the difficulty. Clues like 33D, This too shall pass, PHASE; 26D, What one might subscribe to, ISM, and 30D, Seeking comment, READYORNOT (brilliant!) make it perfectly clear that this is not a Monday crossword, far from it.

Nossos sócios Gabriel Abelheira, Tomás Goulart e Sarah Campos debatem, no episódio de hoje, os principais acontecimentos da semana no Brasil e no mundo.⁠ ⁠ No cenário internacional, o Fed manteve a taxa de juros americana inalterada, como amplamente esperado, reforçando que não há urgência para definição dos próximos passos, que dependerão dos dados econômicos. Foram divulgados também dados de atividade (ISM de serviços), que subiram marginalmente no mês. No âmbito das tarifas, foi anunciado acordo entre EUA e Reino Unido. E lá, o BoE também se reuniu, reduzindo a taxa de juros em 0,25%, também conforme a expectativa. Por fim, foram divulgados dados de balança comercial da China, demonstrando exportações ainda firmes – apesar do recuo com os EUA, houve aumento de fluxo com outros países asiáticos, reforçando a hipótese de que esteja ocorrendo triangulação. ⁠ No Brasil, o Copom optou por elevar a taxa de juros em 0,50%, tornando o balanço de riscos para a inflação simétrico, mas com projeção para 2026 ainda elevada (3,6%). De dados econômicos, foi divulgado o IPCA, em linha com o esperado; e a produção industrial, demonstrando que a atividade segue sustentada. No âmbito político, o caso das fraudes do INSS segue repercutindo, podendo trazer impactos fiscais e de popularidade para o governo. Foram divulgados resultados corporativos, com destaque para os bancos, que foram bem recebidos pelos investidores. ⁠ Nos EUA, os juros abriram (vértice de 10 anos +7 bps), e as bolsas fecharam com variações menos relevantes – S&P 500 -0,47%, Nasdaq -0,20%, Russell 2000 +0,12%. No Brasil, os vértices mais curtos abriram (jan/26 +11 bps), enquanto os mais longos fecharam (jan/31 -29 bps); o Ibovespa subiu 1,02% e o real ficou estável. ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Na próxima semana será importante acompanhar a divulgação da ata do Copom, dados de atividade aqui (PMS e PMC) e nos EUA (vendas no varejo), dados de inflação nos EUA, e possíveis negociações entre China e EUA. ⁠ ⁠Não deixe de conferir!⁠

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news all eyes are now turning to the US Fed and the results of their meeting about to start.But first up in the US, the widely-watched ISM services PMI for April came in better than expected with a modest expansion, off a nine month low in March. New orders drove the result as did higher inventories. Employment contracted again. Activity was little-changed but still expanding. However price pressures jumped to their highest since February 2023.This contrasts with the globally-benchmarked S&P Global/Markit version which reported its slowest growth for 17 months amid subdued demand and a slump in business confidence and rising costs. Financial markets are preferring to look at the ISM one, however.All eyes now turn to Thursday's (NZT) US Federal Reserve board meeting where most observers think they will hold policy unchanged to see how the price impact of tariffs works out.There was a well supported UST 3yr bond auction this morning and that delivered a median yield of 3.77%, up slightly from 3.70% at the prior equivalent event a month ago.In Washington, there are still no tariff deals. There are negotiations but it seems no-one is rolling over in the way the new US Administration assumed.And as you will already probably know, Warren Buffett has announced his retirement as CEO at the end of this year, when he will be aged 95 years. But he will remain chairman of Berkshire Hathaway.In Canada, things aren't good with their service sector suffering a steep contraction of activity in April.And recession fears are putting a real downer on their real estate markets.Across the Pacific, China is still on holiday. Singapore's April retail sales weakened from March, down a sharpish -2.8% to leave them up just 1.1% from the same month a year ago. Car sales were a significant factor in the month-on-month drop, but not all of it.The results of the weekend's Singaporean general election are in and there was no surprise that they had engineered a dominant win for their ruling PAP party, enough to retain their two-thirds-and-more majority. They won 87 of the 98 seats 'contested' with 67% of the vote. Their courts ensured the opposition could only run weak candidates. They have a 'democracy' in name only.Post-election in Australia, the ASX200 fell -1.0%, and their benchmark 10 year bond rose +10 bps from pre-election levels. Investors think they are facing at least six more years of a Labor-led government, three at least with a majority-Labor government.The key trends in the Aussie election were a stark gender divide with women overwhelmingly repelled by the Liberals, immigrant votes, including Chinese votes, increasingly attracted to Labor, and the rise and rise of Teal candidates (who are social liberals, economic conservatives). The opposition Liberal Party are likely to compound their mistakes by selecting two older socially conservative men to the top leadership.The other notable trend from the Aussie election was the near wipeout of the Greens. Even their leader is having trouble holding his seat.Global food prices rose in April but are only back to the same level they were in 2023 and well below March 2022 levels. But the rise was largely down to rises for meat (up +4.3% from year-ago levels), and especially dairy (up +23% on the same basis).The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.34%, unchanged from this time yesterday.Oil prices are weaker again, down -US$1 at just on US$57/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is now just under US$60/bbl. These are still four year lows, hurt by the combination of easing global demand along with rising output.The Kiwi dollar is now at 59.6 USc, down -20 bps from yesterday at this time. Against the Aussie we are down -20 bps at 92.3 AUc. Against the euro we are little-changed at 52.3 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just under 67.9 and up +10 bps.The bitcoin price starts today down -1.0% from yesterday at US$94,803. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at +/- 1.1%.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

Los datos económicos del día en Estados Unidos eran los de la encuesta ISM de Servicios. Ha sorprendido al alza pese al aumento de los precios pagados. Algo de deterioro se ve también en el plano laboral. En lo corporativo son protagonistas en Estados Unidos las acciones de Skechers. 3G Capital ofrece 9.420 millones por la empresa de calzado. Y caídas en los operadores de cines después de que el presidente Donald Trump desvelase un arancel del 100% sobre las películas producidas fuera de EE.UU. Cinemark Holdings cae un 7,4%, AMC un 2,2% e IMAX un 9%. Analizamos el mercado esta hora con Gisela Turazzini, de Blackbird. Y hacemos Gestión del Patrimonio con Borja de Castro, de Banco BIG. En Bolsa española, y dentro del Ibex 35, Solaria, Unicaja y Acciona Energías son los mejores valores del día. Se ponen al frente de las pérdidas ArcelorMittal, Ferrovial y Telefónica.

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news the gold price is tumbling today, ending its recent spectacular rise.But first, American initial jobless claims rose to 223,600 last week, more than expected. There are now 1.907 mln people on these benefits, +153,000 more than at this time last year, a rose of +8.7%.But job cuts announced in April came in less than you might have thought at 105,400, certainly less than for March. But they are +62% higher than year-ago levels.The widely-watched ISM manufacturing PMI for April slipped into a deeper contraction than in March, although slightly less so than expected. Output shrank more sharply and prices rose faster. Meanwhile, new orders declined at a slower pace although new export orders fell steeply. This survey was quite a bit more negative than the S&P Global/Markit version we noted yesterday.One sector that has lost much of its momentum is the US construction industry. It atrophied somewhat in March, again.The expectation is that tomorrow's US non-farm payrolls report will deliver a rise of +130,000, about half the levels they had at the back end of 2024. But there may be downside risks to this estimate. A very weak result will put the Fed in a real bind, having to choose between rescuing jobs in a faltering economy, or pushing back on rising inflation. The last time they had serious stagflation was in the late 1970s, and then the Fed chose fighting inflation over preserving jobs and growth. It caused social unrest, but it beat inflation, and ended stagflation's curse - until now. But fifty years later, few people understand that curse and it's corrosive effects.Across the Pacific, the Bank of Japan held its key interest rate steady yesterday as the new American tariff policy casts a shadow over the Japanese economy. The central bank kept its policy rate at 0.5% during its first board meeting since Washington announced a wave of "reciprocal" tariffs in early April. The yen fell. The BOJ also stood pat at its March meeting following a +25 bps hike in January.And don't forget, China is on holiday, until Tuesday. So data releases there are sparse. It may be a good time for some of them to take a break; outbound export shipments to the US are reportedly down -50%. Despite that, there are signs the US is desperate to get trade talks going but Beijing is playing hard to engage.Australia reported a merchandise trade surplus of +AU$10.8 bln in March. This was a good improvement from the relatively low +AU$8.4 bln in March 2024, but similar to the average March in the prior five years (+AU$10.6 bln). (Australia usually reports seasonally adjusted values, and are much lower than the actual values this year, for some reason.)The Aussie federal election is in its final day now. Pundits seem to think the incumbent government will be returned but with a reduced majority, maybe even requiring a coalition partner. We will know soon enough.Global container freight rates fell -3% last week from the prior week to be -23% lower than year ago levels. Bulk freight rates were little-changed.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.23%, up +5 bps from this time yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$3214/oz, and down -US$95 from yesterday.Oil prices are holding lower at just on US$58.50/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is now just under US$61.50/bbl. These remain four year lows, down to level last seen in April 2021.The Kiwi dollar is now at 59 USc, down -40 bps from yesterday at this time. Against the Aussie we are down -20 bps at 92.6 AUc. Against the euro we are little-changed at 52.3 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today just on 67.4 and down -10 bps.The bitcoin price starts today up +2.8% from yesterday at US$96,810. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at +/- 1.9%.This briefing is taking a few days off for a short break. We will resume on Tuesday, May 5, 2025.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again on Tuesday.

​ Live at 2pm PT, today's episode of "Big Tech Earnings" breaks down the market-shaking numbers from two of the Magnificent 7: Apple and Amazon. We'll dive into their latest earnings reports, outlooks for the next quarter, and what it all means for tech investors and the broader markets. We'll also cover a wave of important economic data, including unemployment claims, ISM manufacturing data, and construction spending—all key pieces in the puzzle for the Fed, investors, and market momentum.

US equities finished higher in Thursday trading, though ended near session lows after coming off in the last minutes of trading. Big tech earnings and cap-ex guides were the big tailwind today with renewed support for the AI secular growth narrative. In macro news, April's ISM manufacturing was better than feared at 48.7, ahead of the 48.1 consensus, though still down from March's 49.0.

En este episodio, desglosamos los temas más importantes que están marcando el pulso de los mercados: • Wall Street entra en pánico: El presidente Trump declaró una emergencia nacional comercial, imponiendo aranceles del 10% al 49% usando la Ley IEEPA. El $SPX cayó -3.6%, $US100 -3.8% y $INDU -2.7%. UBS estima que los precios al consumidor podrían subir hasta 4% si no hay marcha atrás. Hoy se publican datos de empleo y el ISM de servicios. • Semiconductores bajo presión: Aunque oficialmente excluidos, los aranceles impactan a socios clave de $NVDA, $AMD, $AVGO y $QCOM. $MU cae -5%, $TSM -4% y $INTC -1%. También bajan $ASML, $LRCX, $AMAT y $KLAC. Trump sugiere que las empresas “fabriquen en EE.UU.” para evitar impuestos. • Apple se desploma: $AAPL cayó ~7% tras los aranceles a China (34%), Taiwán (32%) e India (26%), donde produce buena parte de su hardware. Trump afirmó que Apple invertirá $500B en EE.UU., aunque sigue dependiendo de $TSM y busca diversificar con $FXCOF en India. Acompáñanos para entender cómo esta nueva ola de proteccionismo está sacudiendo a los mercados y alterando el mapa geopolítico global de la tecnología.

In this Bible study, we focus on Revelation 3.14-22. This is a message from Jesus to the church of Laodicea. Laodicea was one of seven churches in Asia Minor (modern-day western Turkey) to which Jesus had the Apostle John write a letter. The church in Laodicea thought they were rich and successful, when in God's eyes, they were weak and spiritually useless. Laodicea was judging itself on the world's standard, not God's.

Leviticus 05.1-13 Bible Study - Sin Offering (Part 2)In this Bible study, we look at the 2nd half of the Sin Offering as outlined in Leviticus 5.1-13. The Israelites were required to perform a “sin offering” if they failed to do something that was required, such as failing to give a testimony, dealing properly with ritual uncleanness, or fulfilling an oath. We also look at the “sin offering” as the “purification offering” asking why a woman who just gave birth would be required to give a “sin offering?” A key verse in this passage is Leviticus 5.5 in which the text tells us that confession is key to the process. OUTLINE:01:45 - What is Iron Sheep Ministries? 07:04 - Outline of the talk: 5.1-6 Failure to do something that was required: - v1 - Failure to give testimony, which could prevent justice from being carried out. - v2-3 - Failure to deal properly with ritual uncleanness, which could lead to the Lord's tabernacle being defiled.- v4 - Failure to fulfill an oath, which would result in the Lord's name being profaned. In any of the above. ONCE they realized their guilt there were two things they had to do.- v5 - Confess their sin- v6 - bring an offering to the Tabernacle so the priest could make atonement for them.5.7-13 - Three possible offerings, adjusted according to the economic situation of the person bringing the offering. EVERYONE has the opportunity to make a sacrifice, no matter how poor they were. 08:42 - Leviticus 5.1-1312:02 - Lev 5.1 - public charge to testify - it was considered a sin to see something and not say something. 14:25 - Lev 5.2-3 - “ceremonially unclean” - we see unclean as being related to public health or hygiene. A better way to think of a ceremony unclean vs clean is adequately prepared for worship.Rev 7.141 John 1.722:45 - purification offeringWORD STUDY: Ḥaṭṭā'āṯ חַטָּאָת (hea-taw-aw) - “sin, sin offering, purification from sins of ceremonial uncleanness.”Occurs 294x in KJV, 82x in Lev, 32x in Lev 4-5:13Lev 5.2-3Lev 12.1-8Luke 2.22-2430:29 - Lev 5.4 OathsMat 5.33-3732:50 - Lev 5.5 - confess - 35:55 - why is confession important? When you realize your guilt, the very first step, you must go through is to confess your sin before the Lord. He already knows what you did! But if you refuse to acknowledge your sin, then there is no room for the Holy Spirit to work in you. The Lord's discipline is a good thing.

Nasser presents a commemoration of Rachel Corrie, an American nonviolence activist, diarist, and member of the pro-Palestinian International Solidarity Movement (ISM). Rachel was killed by an Israeli armoured bulldozer on March 16, 2003, at the age of 23, during the height of the Second Intifada. Nasser shares excerpts from Rachel's writings and audio recordings, where she spoke about nonviolent activism, human rights, and her advocacy for the Palestinian people under occupation. These reflections centred around her personal experiences and the impact of her time in Rafah, Gaza. For more on Rachel, visit rachelcorriefoundation.org.For info on upcoming events and actions, follow APAN and Free Palestine Melbourne.Catch daily broadcast updates via Let's Talk Palestine. 'I'd Rather Be Dancing (Rachel Corrie's Song)' performed Jim Page. The lyrics of this song are based on letters Rachel Corrie wrote to her parents before she was tragically killed. Rachel was attempting to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian doctor's home when the incident occurred.

The sin offering (also known as the purification offering) is covered in Leviticus chapter 4 as well as the first thirteen verses of chapter 5. In this study, we will look at the first portion, as outlined in Leviticus chapter 4. The sin offering was an offering required when an individual (or group) had sinned unintentionally. The offering atoned for the sin and cleansed them from unrighteousness. What is the application for this for us today? Do we have such an offering for our sin?Outline: 00:08 - Introduction to sin/purification offeringThis is a required offeringThese are also newly establishedThe Sin offering is atonement made for unintentional sin03:48 - Lev 4.1-2 - intro for all sin offerings04:45 - What is the definition of sin? Leviticus 4.2: “Does what is forbidden in any of the Lord's commands” 1 John 3.408:54 - What is unintentional sin?Word study: שְׁגָגָה šᵊḡāḡâ “Sha-gaw-gaw” “sin of error or inadvertent sin” Psalm 19.12: cleanse thou me from secret faults. - KJV (hidden)- NIV13:20 - What is intentional or defiant sin?Num15.30-31 “‘But anyone who sins defiantly, whether native-born or foreigner, blasphemes the Lord and must be cut off from the people of Israel. 31 Because they have despised the Lord's word and broken his commands, they must surely be cut off; their guilt remains on them.'”2 Sam 11-13Psalm 5119:27 - Lev 4.3-12 - If the “anointed priest” sinsHEB 5.1-6Jesus is our high priest “order of Melchizedek, read (read Heb 7-10)27:04 - Lev 4.13-21 - If the “whole Israelite community” sins30:02 - Lev 4.22-26 - If “a leader” sins31:31 - Lev 4.27-35 - If “any member of the community” sins33:53 - Let's look at the differencesThe animal sacrificed: A young bull, a male goat, a female goat or a lambTreatment of the blood. The first two offerings (anointed priest and community) the blood is sprinkled via a finger in front of the curtain dividing the holy place and the most holy place. As well as on the horns of the altar of incense.

The weather can be a bit blustery at this time of year, with strong winds lofting dust into the sky. The dust can make the setting Sun look especially orange or red. Astronomers see that same “redness” when they look at the stars beyond the Sun, and for the same reason: clouds of dust. In fact, the space between the stars is far from empty. It’s filled with gas and dust that form the “interstellar medium” – the ISM. This material accounts for about 15 percent of all the “normal” matter in our home galaxy, the Milky Way. The interstellar medium is an extreme vacuum by any standard – it’s far emptier than any vacuum created in the laboratory. But there’s a lot of space between the stars, so the gas and dust add up. Most of the ISM consists of hydrogen – atoms that were created in the Big Bang. But there’s also a smattering of other atoms and molecules, plus the tiny solid particles known as dust. Many of the dust grains are about the size of the particles in cigarette smoke. That’s the right size to scatter blue wavelengths of light. The effect is similar to what makes the Sun look redder when it’s viewed through a thicker layer of air. Interstellar dust makes far-away stars look redder than they really are, too. So to fully understand the stars, astronomers need to know how much dust they’re looking through – dust that reddens the view of the distant universe. Script by Damond Benningfield

Market Updates and Economic Insights - February 5, 2025 In this episode of Dividend Cafe, Brian Szytel discusses the positive market performance on February 5, 2025, with major indices like the Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq closing higher.
