Podcasts about MKS

Nach einem schweren Reitunfall musste sich @René_Baumann zurück ins Leben kämpfen und hat seinen reiterlichen Zugang komplett verändert. Das Ergebnis: MkS oder Mental Kinetisches Springen. Wobei die Trainingsmethode mit „Plan B im Kopf“ für alle Reitweisen funktioniert. Man ruft seinen persönlichen Plan B bei Blockaden vor dem Hindernis, bei Pirouetten, biem Reining, bei Tunieren oder auch bei Gefahren bei Ausritten automatisch ab. „MkS ist keine Sitzschulung, es geht vielmehr darum den Reiter mental dahin zu bekommen dass er seine beste Leistung abrufen kann und wie ich es zudem schaffe, das Pferd möglichst gleichmäßig zu gymnastizieren. Dazu muss man den natürlichen Asymmetrien des Reiters entgegenwirken, die der Gerade-Richtung des Pferdes im Wege stehen“, erklärt Springtrainer René. Mit den Tools des MKS könne man so gut wie jede Asymmetrie direkt auf dem Pferd korrigieren. Das Besondere bei seiner Methode sei auch, dass man dafür gar nicht absteigen oder am Boden auf einer Matte turnen muss, sondern die Schiefen sehr simple direkt auf dem Pferd korrigieren kann.Wie das funktioniert, erzählt er im Podcast AUF TRAB. Sollte Interesse bestehen, ihn auch einmal für einen Kurs nach Niederösterreich ins wunderschöne Schloss Schlosshof vor den Toren zu holen, hinterlasst bitte einen Kommentar oder schreibt an julia@auftrab.eu. AUF TRAB macht vieles, auch das möglich!Viele Hörvergnügen mit der MkSPodcastfolge und bleibt AUF TRAB, bis zum nächsten Samstag Eure Julia und die WelshiesSchön jedenfalls, dass ihr zuhört! Schön wäre auch, wenn ihr Eure Pferdefreundinnen für AUF TRAB motiviert :-). Damit hilft ihr, dass noch mehr auf den Podcast aufmerksam werden.

“Sunshine, Storms, Solace: Ministering to MKs” by Michele Phoenix.   The post Sunshine, Storms, Solace: Ministering to MKs appeared first on PLEASANT HILL COMMUNITY CHURCH.

“If you don't innovate,” says John Lee, “you can't invent the products people use.” In this episode of the PNC C-Speak podcast, Lee, president and CEO of MKS Instruments Inc., shares the origin story and trajectory of the nearly 60-year-old tech enterprise. Based in Massachusetts, the company supports the advanced electronics industry. Innovation is only half of the secret sauce for MKS Instruments. The other prime ingredient, according to Lee, is inclusion.“I've spent a lot of time making sure everyone in the company – no matter where you are, which country you're in, what your political beliefs are or any other beliefs you have within the walls of MKS –  will be included. We will respect each other and you will be welcomed.”Tune in to this episode of the PNC C-Speak podcast to learn more about:Crisis lessons Lee learned during the Covid-19 pandemic (3:40)The components of team dynamics (8:29)Which major sporting event is on his bucket list (19:33)Powered by PNC Bank.Download a transcript of the podcast. 

In this Star Wars Day edition of The Sunday Roast, The lads return with a scorching hot rundown of the week's biggest stories, from geopolitical tremors to major market moves. We unpack the landmark U.S.-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund agreement giving the U.S. preferential access to Ukraine's critical minerals—titanium, lithium, and rare earths—and explore the ripple effects across Europe, the West, and a sidelined Russia. We also dive into the dramatic ousting of U.S. National Security Adviser Mike Waltz following the jaw-dropping “Signalgate” scandal. This week's guest is Charles Bray, Executive Chairman of Aterian Plc, who joins us to discuss how geopolitical tensions and resource nationalism are reshaping the critical minerals landscape. We get the lowdown on Aterian's game-changing $4.5 million trade finance deal in Rwanda and their recent £468,000 convertible bond raise aimed at boosting exploration in Morocco, Botswana, and beyond. Plus, we revisit our “12 for 2025” watchlist with a progress check and updated outlook, and wrap up with all the movers and shakers making waves in the markets this week.

I've got some big news.After eight amazing years of creating an event that, without a doubt, changed the orthodontic meeting space, I've made the decision to call it a wrap.The 2025 Orthopreneurs Summit will be the final one.When I started the OP Summit, I wanted to create an experience that was different from all the other meetings. A place where innovation thrived, and a place where people connected and left with an edge. A place where no one felt all alone.And now, as we approach the last Summit, I'm proud to say we've done just that.In this episode, I reflect on the OP Summit's journey, why it's time to end it while it's still at its peak, and how the lessons learned will lead to something new in the future.But before we wrap things up, we've got one last epic gathering in Vegas, with amazing speakers, four tracks for clinical and management insights, and everything you need to thrive both professionally and personally.This is your final opportunity to be a part of what I truly believe is the best orthodontic event.

God's heart is to care for those in need. As we receive from Him, we are then given the joy of sharing that with others. Missionaries and their Kids (MKs) have diverse experiences on the field – some of them incredibly positive and some are incredibly challenging. Often missionaries & MKs aren't seen as people in need (they are the ones who go, who care, who serve, who share the gospel). The missionary experience is a gift but transitioning to or from the field can be an immense challenge. Sometimes missionaries lack the tools and resources necessary to navigate this transition well. The Church across Canada has an opportunity to work together to care for missionary units in need.

Die Weltgesundheitsorganisation verliert ihren wichtigsten Beitrittszahler. Donald Trump hat den Austritt der USA verfügt. Für ihn ist die WHO dreierlei: zu teuer, zu ideologisch, zu ineffektiv.

Die Maul- und Klauenseuche ist eine hochansteckende Viruskrankheit, die Klauentiere befällt – unter anderem Rinder, Schweine, Ziegen und Wildtiere. 35 Jahre galt Deutschland als frei von der Tierseuche, doch am 10. Januar wurde MKS in einer Wasserbüffelherde in Brandenburg festgestellt. Die Tiere der betroffenen Herde wurden getötet, auch Schweine, Schafe, Rinder und Ziegen benachbarter Betriebe wurden vorsorglich gekeult. Doch nicht nur in Brandenburg sind die Folgen deutlich spürbar: Weil die Exporte von tierischen Produkten eingeschränkt sind, stockt die Verarbeitungskette. Der wirtschaftliche Schaden liegt Schätzungen zufolge bereits in Milliardenhöhe. In der aktuellen Sonderfolge sprechen Moderator Andreas Kuhlage und Landwirtin Maja Mogwitz mit Schweine- und Rinderhalter Georg Reinke aus dem Landkreis Vechta in Niedersachsen darüber, wie sich die Seuche auf ihn auswirkt, obwohl er nicht direkt betroffen ist. Hintergrund über das Virus liefert Christa Kühn, die Präsidentin des Friedrich-Loeffler-Instituts.

Der zweite Verdachtsfall der Maul- und Klauenseuche wurde nicht bestätigt. Damit sei die Tierseuche noch unter Kontrolle, so Landwirtschaftsminister Cem Özdemir (Grüne). Den Bauern stellte er Hilfe in Aussicht, sollte sich die MKS stark verbreiten. Grunwald, Maria www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

A ceasefire deal has just been reached.   In the past, Israelis have been united in elation and relief about the return of hostages, even at a high cost to national security. But not this time. Far-right MKs and ultranationalists had vigorously decried the deal, protesting any concession that would allow Hamas to hold on to power, no matter how small. What is behind their bitter dissent, and will this deepen rifts in Israeli society?   In this episode, recorded as the deal was still being finalized, Donniel Hartman and Yossi Klein Halevi consider closure, family loyalty, and the basic value of derech eretz (common decency) in negotiating the return of the hostages, and why the lens for ultranationalists in Israel is so starkly different.   JOIN OUR EMAIL LIST FOR MORE HARTMAN IDEAS Sponsor an upcoming episode of For Heaven's Sake.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political correspondent Sam Sokol joins host Jessica Steinberg on today's show. Sokol discusses the political machinations in the Knesset as voting over the 2025 budget leads National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and several ultra-Orthodox parties to threaten to oppose the bill, given some of the planned cuts. While Ben Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich have banded together in the past over their political aspirations, the two have been at odds for some time, which could possibly lead to a break in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition, explains Sokol. Sokol reviews the further political dramas that played out on Tuesday in the Knesset, as Netanyahu, recovering from a successful prostate removal surgery at the Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem, was forced to leave his hospital bed and return to the Knesset, in order to cast a decisive vote on the budget law, and thwart Ben Gvir. Another Knesset member, Likud MK Boaz Bismuth, who was in the midst of the seven-day mourning period for his mother, was also pushed to leave the shiva and come to the Knesset and vote in favor of the bill. Sokol also offers a brief description of the fragment of a Houthi missile that landed in his Beit Shemesh neighborhood late Monday night.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political correspondent Sam Sokol and reporter Diana Bletter join host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today's episode. Recently, attempts are being made to restart the controversial judicial overhaul legislation and last week, Sokol spoke with one of its architects, MK Simcha Rothman. We hear about Rothman’s perspective on why it is needed and in fact protects Israel's democracy. The Knesset Constitution, Law and Justice Committee will soon begin holding hearings on a proposed bill applying a Basic Law requiring a public referendum for land-for-peace deals to the West Bank and Israeli territorial waters, the Knesset’s right-wing Land of Israel Caucus announced on Wednesday. What is this bill and why do those who proposed it believe it will be passed at this time. Bletter went to the northern coastal city of Nahariya yesterday to witness how during the ceasefire, hospitals are moving from war footing and out of their bunkers. She brings tales from the maternity ward. Last week, Bletter visited Haifa to see how residents are -- once again -- celebrating the annual Holiday of Holidays that honors the mixed city's three major religions. For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel’s ongoing live blog. Discussed articles include: MK threatens that judges ‘playing hardball’ will lead to resumption of judicial overhaul MKs push bill to block West Bank territorial concessions, prevent Palestinian state After months of Hezbollah rocket attacks, Haifa’s Christians get ready for Christmas Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Times of Israel founding editor David Horovitz joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Horovitz speaks about recent comments made by Defense Minister Israel Katz about the IDF remaining in Gaza, as a way of reiterating Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's positioning in the current ceasefire negotiations. He also looks at what's being said about a possible hostage deal and a sense of progress on some kind of three-phase deal, no longer conditioned by Hamas on Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, given a clear softening of Hamas' position. Horovitz discusses the latest in Netanyahu's government coalition, which was able to pass budget legislation even when Otzma Yehudit's leader, National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir voted against parts of the budget legislation as a show of defiance and disagreement over the judicial overhaul and his desire to fire Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara. He also reviews what's being said by Syrian rebel leader Abu Muhammad al-Julani, and the need to be wary about al-Julani's statements, as a known fighter with a US bounty on his head, even though he speaks about his desire to build a better country. Syria is an unknowable quantity at the moment, says Horovitz. For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel’s ongoing live blog. Discussed articles include: Katz said to tell MKs hostage-truce deal ‘closer than ever,’ echoing Hamas optimism Trump says he’s ‘trying to help very strongly’ to bring hostages home Otzma Yehudit votes against state budget, as coalition splits over bid to fire AG Syrian Islamist leader says rebel groups to be disbanded, minority rights protected Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

BUFFALO, NY- December 4, 2024 – A new #research paper was #published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 16, Issue 21 on November 22, 2024, entitled, “The effects of young and aged, male and female megakaryocyte conditioned media on angiogenic properties of endothelial cells.” Researchers Murad K. Nazzal, Hanisha L. Battina, Nikhil P. Tewari, Sarah L. Mostardo, Rohit U. Nagaraj, Donghui Zhou, Olatundun D. Awosanya, Saveda K. Majety, Sue Samson, Rachel J. Blosser, Ushashi C. Dadwal, Patrick L. Mulcrone, and Melissa A. Kacenaat from Indiana University School of Medicine and Richard L. Roudebush Veterans' Administration Medical Center, have uncovered how certain bone marrow cells, called megakaryocytes (MKs), promote the growth of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) to aid in bone healing. Their findings help explain why healing slows with age and offer insights into potential treatments to accelerate fracture recovery in older adults. Broken bones are common in older adults, and slower healing can lead to complications and longer hospital stays. Accelerating the healing process could significantly improve the quality of life for millions. In this study, researchers investigated the effects of substances secreted by MKs, collected from young and older male and female mice. These substances, known as conditioned media (CM), were tested for their ability to stimulate the growth and function of endothelial cells (EC), which form the building blocks of blood vessels. Blood vessels play a critical role in healing by delivering oxygen and nutrients to damaged areas, making angiogenesis a vital part of the recovery process. The results showed that CM from younger MKs mice was more effective at helping blood vessels grow. Interestingly, MKs from female mice performed better than those from males, regardless of age. For example, substances from female MKs mice boosted blood vessel growth by over 115% and significantly improved the movement of cells needed for healing. The researchers also studied changes in genes related to blood vessel growth, and found that aging affects how these genes work. These changes may explain why older people heal more slowly after breaking a bone. “An understanding of which factors regulate which mechanisms of EC functionality may allow for isolation of one or a few factors that influence EC migration changes with aging, resulting in the development of targeted therapy to improve EC migration, subsequent angiogenesis, and fracture healing.” In conclusion, this research paves the way for developing new therapies to help older individuals recover from fractures more quickly, reducing pain and improving mobility. One potential approach could involve creating treatments that replicate the effects of MKs from younger individuals or isolating the specific substances that promote blood vessel growth. This represents an important step toward addressing the growing challenge of delayed healing in an aging population. DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.206077 Corresponding authors - Patrick L.

Israeli Knesset members Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich have been advancing “total victory,” and they don't just mean defeating Hamas or returning the hostages.   This week, Donniel Hartman and Yossi Klein Halevi discuss the small but powerful far-right messianic movement in Israel that these MKs represent, and how the current war has emboldened their agenda in the West Bank, on the Temple Mount, and across the region.   JOIN OUR EMAIL LIST FOR MORE HARTMAN IDEAS Sponsor an upcoming episode of For Heaven's Sake.

For 2000 years Christians have heeded the call of The Great Commission to “go into all the world.” Christian missionaries have become some of the heroes of the faith, the subject of books, songs, and movies. But we rarely hear about the children of these missionaries. In the past few years, stories of spiritual and sexual abuse of missionary kids have started making news. Sometimes, even when there is no abuse, there is neglect and isolation, as many missionary kids, or MKs, are shuttled off to boarding schools, or follow their parents from one missionary assignment to another, often having to leave friends and support structures behind. Recent research suggests that there are more than 425,000 Christian missionaries in the world today, and many hundreds of thousands of current and former missionary kids. Recent research suggests that MKs experience childhood trauma at a rate nearly twice that of kids raised in the United States. The result is that MKs are often left with questions about God and their own faith if their own commitment doesn't match their missionary parents. Joy Smalley was one of those missionary kids. Her parents were missionaries to Mongolia, and she was raised in conditions that at times compromised her safety and caused her to question her own faith. Ultimately, she did not reject her faith, and her story is one that evangelicals need to hear if we hope not only to be obedient to the Great Commission, but also to be obedient to Scripture's commands to “suffer the children” in our midst, to protect them and raise them in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Her book is Abraham's Daughter: Healing Trauma from a Childhood in Missions. She spoke to me from her home in Tustin, California. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. I'm your host Warren Smith. Please join me on Friday when Natasha Cowden and I recap the week's news. Until then, may God bless you.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today's episode. Yesterday, Einav Zangauker, the mother of a hostage held by Hamas, published a short video filmed in the Gaza Strip after the October 7 attack, but recently discovered. Horovitz speaks about her decision to release the video now. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to address Congress this afternoon and will meet United States President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday at the White House, and former president Donald Trump on Friday in Miami. We hear the potential points Netanyahu is likely to make. Rescued hostage Noa Argamani tearfully told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a meeting Monday that her most difficult experience during her eight months of captivity was hearing the premier declare that the war was going to be long. Argamani's comments came even as she and her father faced virulent criticism from some left-wing journalists and others for agreeing to accompany Netanyahu on his visit to the US, leading to condemnations by both coalition and opposition lawmakers. Horovitz weighs in. Education Minister Yoav Kisch on Tuesday told the heads of local authorities that students from northern communities evacuated because of the war would not be able to return to school in their hometowns in September and would instead continue to attend schools elsewhere in Israel. While the Knesset is set to break for recess this week, we hear how there is much more work MKs could be doing for their nation at war. The National Security Council on Sunday told Israelis traveling to Paris for the Olympics to exercise increased caution, warning that it believes that global jihadist and Iran-backed terror organizations “are seeking to carry out attacks on Israeli/Jewish targets around the Olympics.” Horovitz speaks about the increasing perception that Israel is a pariah nation.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today's episode. Early today, the Knesset voted not to establish a Palestinian state through a resolution co-sponsored by parties in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition together with right-wing parties from the opposition. Why now? In the name of not meddling in the American presidential elections, far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has suggested to security cabinet ministers that a hostage-ceasefire deal with Hamas should be delayed. Horovitz weighs in. Mossad chief David Barnea told a security cabinet meeting Tuesday that young female hostages held by Hamas don't have time to wait for a new hostage deal framework, according to unsourced leaks from the gathering that were widely reported by Hebrew media outlets Wednesday. We hear about some of the voices from within the coalition supporting the deal. Aides to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are optimistic that some progress has been made in his yearslong effort to re-ingratiate himself with Donald Trump, after the former president reposted Netanyahu's video condemning Saturday's assassination attempt, according to a Wednesday report. Could the two meet up during Netanyahu's upcoming trip? The IDF is set to begin sending initial draft orders on Sunday, summoning haredi men to the induction center to begin their physical and other testing ahead of their draft. Horovitz discusses the hot-button issue. For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog. Discussed articles include: Hamas is weakened, but there's no room for complacency Knesset votes overwhelmingly against Palestinian statehood, days before PM's US trip Report: Ben Gvir urging hostage deal to be held up to avoid helping Biden vs Trump Netanyahu aides said to see hope of mending fences with Trump after assassination attempt Urging deal, Mossad chief said to warn time running out for young female hostages Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. It is day 234 of the war with Hamas. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. The commander of Hamas's so-called "West Bank headquarters" and another top official in the terror group were killed in last night's Israeli airstrike in Rafah, according to the IDF. The strike, according to Hamas health officials, killed some 35 people. In the strike's wake, Hamas said that Palestinians must “rise up and march” against the Israeli army's “massacre” in Gaza's far-southern city of Rafah. How seriously we should take this call to march from Hamas? Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said this morning that he will ask the other 26 European Union member states to issue official backing to the International Court of Justice and take steps to ensure Israel respects its decisions. What other international reactions are we seeing in light of last night's strike. Hamas fired eight rockets at central Israel yesterday afternoon, marking the most significant attack out of the Gaza Strip in some four months and underscoring some of the challenges remaining for the Israeli military as it seeks to oust the Palestinian group from its last major stronghold. While some MKs call for the chief of staff's ouster, Horovitz explains what these rockets from Rafah may represent. National Unity leader and war cabinet minister Benny Gantz submitted Sunday morning to the cabinet secretariat a proposal for a government resolution to establish a state commission of inquiry into the events surrounding the October 7 Hamas invasion and massacre and the subsequent, ongoing war in Gaza. Too soon? The Israeli military's envoy to negotiations aimed at freeing hostages held in Gaza expressed hopelessness over the chances of reaching a deal with the current government at the helm, according to a report on Sunday, the latest in a series of apparently leaked statements broadcasting the IDF general's frustration with Jerusalem's refusal to move closer to Hamas's position in negotiations. What agenda is this leak serving? The B'nai B'rith World Center in Jerusalem gave awards to two Israeli journalists on Sunday evening at an annual ceremony recognizing excellence in reporting on Diaspora Jewry. The two reporters recognized were Canaan Lidor, The Times of Israel's Jewish World reporter, and Channel 12's Europe correspondent Elad Simchayoff. Former Israeli government spokesman Eylon Levy gave a keynote address at the event, calling to create an elite unit of professional spokespeople in all languages and all time zones. If you will it, it is no dream? For the latest updates, please see The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog.

SÍGUENOS EN INSTAGRAM PARÁ ESTAR PENDIENTE DE TODAS LAS NOTICIAS DEL GÉNERO URBANO https://www.instagram.com/bellacakemx/ Es un artista argentino que comenzó su carrera a través del freestyle. Gracias a su talento innato para la rima, rápidamente se convirtió en uno de los máximos referentes del circuito, destacando por su gran nivel en ediciones históricas de “El Quinto Escalón” y más tarde en batallas memorables de la primera temporada de la FMS (Freestyle Master Series) Argentina. A lo largo de su carrera colaboró con artistas como Duki, Tiago PZK, FMK, Maria Becerra y Bizarrap. En 2013 empezó a participar en batallas de rap en las plazas de Buenos Aires, su ciudad natal. En su repertorio se encuentran batallas memorables contra oponentes como Replik, Trueno, Duki y MKS entre otros. En 2019 decide despedirse de las batallas de freestyle para dedicarse a la música. Ya encarando su carrera musical, en noviembre de 2019 realizó junto con Bizarrap la “BZRP Freestyle sessions, Vol. 7”, y luego en marzo de 2020 participó nuevamente del ciclo haciendo “BZRP Music session Vol. 24” que juntas superan los 350 millones de streams globales. Entre sus temas se destacan “Mil Puertas”, “A Mi Lado” y su primer single “21334”. También cuenta con colaboraciones con C.R.O en “Normal” y con Lit Killah en “Dime”. En octubre 2022 lanza su álbum debut “La Melodía”, que cuenta con la participación de destacados representantes del trap argentino como Duki, Trueno y Tiago PZK.

"Jesteśmy i zmęczeni i szczęśliwi, bo nie był to łatwy sezon dla nas. Mieliśmy trochę kontuzji w trakcie, a jeszcze do tego graliśmy na dwóch frontach. W lidze i pucharze. Teraz to już jednak nie ma znaczenia. Play-offy dla nas wszystkich są czymś czego dawno nie przezywaliśmy" - mówi w rozmowie z RMF FM Dominik Wilczek z MKS-u Dąbrowy Górniczej. Koszykarze dąbrowskiej drużyny po 5 latach znów zagrają w fazie play-off Orlen Basket Ligi. Awans drużynie z województwa śląskiego dała wygrana z GKT Gliwice w ostatniej kolejce sezonu zasadniczego. O nadchodzących meczach z Treflem Sopot, a także o fazie zasadniczej sezonu z zawodnikiem MKS-u Dąbrowa Górnicza rozmawiał Wojciech Marczyk z redakcji sportowej RMF FM.

 12 ministers and 15 MKs, including from the Likud,  attended a so-called Victory Conference in Jerusalem on Sunday night  in support of renewed Jewish settlement in the Gaza Strip. The conference was headlined: “Settlement produces security.” One of the organizers of Sunday's conference was veteran settler activist Daniella Weiss. She told KAN's Mark Weiss that 400 families have signed up so far to resettle in Gaza and the Palestinians there should be forced to leave.

Episode 74 - Moon Knight - City of the Dead This week we are continue our look at recent Moon Knight series.  First up we dive into issues number 21-24 of the currently Moon Knight comic, and then its on to the 5-issue limited series City of the Dead, where we see the comic debut of a character fans of the TV show are already very familiar with.  This Week's Stack Moon Knight (2021-2023) #21-24 Moon Knight: City of the Dead (2023) #1-5 Issue Recaps and Discussion Topics Moon Knight (2021-2023) #21-24 21 - The Reese issue (with a Jake cameo)  22 - Follow the money  22 - This is when he's happy  23 - Resolution through non-violence  24 - Morpheus enters The Big Sleep courtesy of Black Spectre  24 – He tries to give Mark, Steven and Jake some peace before he goes Moon Knight: City of the Dead (2023) #1-5 Cross-pollination – New characters starting in TV or movies and then making the jump to comics is still unusual, but is happening more.    This feels very much like something Doug Moench might have written.  Reminds me a bit of Vol 3's “The Resurrection War.”  See our PotMK episode entitled “It Turns Out He Was Only Mostly Dead” for more on that.  A lot of character narration over the action. Characters introduced themselves every issue.  Do all faiths end up in the Duat in the Marvel universe?  This I do not understand.  It also seems weird that there are cars and modern cities.    This is a bit of a “greatest hits” album, bringing back almost all of MKs old foes – or at least the truly villainous ones.  No Scarlett, for instance. Legion of the Unliving is quite the name.  It's always Randall when you least expect it!  We have a Khonshu sighting  Also is a bit weird, in that it finishes with Layla saying “Be Seeing you, Marc.”  Will she??  On Earth?  Or back in the Duat?  I think Lyla is back on earth. Resurrected for her help defeating Jackal Knight Randall  What's up with him just completely forgetting about the fact he has a girlfriend?  Greer deserves better than this guy.  Final Thoughts What's Next  Moon Knight (2021-2023) #25-30 Signoff  Questions or comments We'd love to hear from you!  Email us at questions@comicsovertime.com or find us on Twitter @comicsoftime. ------------------ Music Intro and Outro created by Lesfm.

Ace reporter Linda Gradstein, Allison Kaplan Sommer and Noah Efron discuss two topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week. Hear the Extra-Special, Special Extra Segment on Patreon   —On Foreign Shores?— Israeli ministers and MKs are drowned when they try to speak overseas, by Israeli protestors. Is that cool? —The Past is Never Dead. It's Not Even Past— Three-quarters of a century ago, sixteen Jewish soldiers were killed when their boat was destroyed by Jewish soldiers in a Jewish State that was 37 days old. Why does this story still matter so much to so many, 75 years later? —How Bad Is Inflation, Actually?— For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: Inflation can topple governments. But do we even notice it, really? All that and 50 years since The Voice of Peace first broadcast “from somewhere in the Mediterranean”, a renowned actress jumping off a Tel Aviv bridge to save a life and the official LGBTQ anthems of years gone by!
