Em 23 de julho de 2025, Donald Trump assinou ordem para exportar “pacotes completos” de inteligência artificial, colocando o Brasil entre destinos prioritários ao lado de Egito e Indonésia. A medida intensifica a disputa com a China por influência tecnológica global. No mesmo período, o Brasil firmou memorando com Pequim e negocia com Washington, enquanto amplia dependência de infraestrutura digital estrangeira. Thiago Aragão, analista de geopolítica O Brasil está nominalmente na lista de destinos prioritários. Ao lado do Egito e da Indonésia, o país figura entre os mercados emergentes onde a presença americana precisa ser consolidada, antes que a influência chinesa se torne irreversível. Para entender o que isso representa na prática, vale olhar o que aconteceu com o Japão. Em outubro de 2025, durante a visita de Trump a Tóquio, os dois países assinaram um “Technology Prosperity Deal”, um acordo de alinhamento em política de IA que vai muito além da compra e venda de hardware. O documento inclui compromissos sobre padrões técnicos, frameworks de governança, fluxo de dados e cooperação em segurança digital. O Japão passou a integrar estruturalmente a órbita tecnológica americana, não apenas como parceiro comercial, mas como parceiro normativo. Washington quer replicar esse modelo em escala. Leia tambémPossível uso de inteligência artificial em ataques no Oriente Médio levanta questões, diz especialista A lógica americana é clara e, num certo sentido, legítima. A China exporta tecnologia de IA num modelo que analistas descrevem como “full-stack com condições embutidas”: hardware subsidiado, software com lógica de caixa preta e frameworks de governança que replicam o modelo regulatório de Pequim. Washington entendeu que competir chip a chip não é suficiente. É preciso exportar o ecossistema inteiro e, com ele, a arquitetura normativa que o acompanha. Para o Brasil, o problema é que os dois modelos chegam com política externa no rodapé do contrato. Leia tambémNa Índia, Lula diz que IA sem regulação ameaça a democracia e aprofunda desigualdades Em 2025, o governo Lula assinou um memorando de entendimento com a China para aprofundar a colaboração em inteligência artificial. No mesmo período, Brasília avançava nas conversas com Washington sobre o programa de exportação de IA e recebia anúncios de bilhões de dólares em data centers da Microsoft, Amazon e Oracle. Do ponto de vista diplomático, é um malabarismo admirável. Do ponto de vista tecnológico, é uma contradição estrutural que vai cobrar seu preço mais cedo do que se imagina. A questão central não é quem vende o chip. É quem treinou o modelo. Os grandes sistemas de linguagem e tomada de decisão que o setor público e privado brasileiro já usa, na análise de crédito, na triagem de políticas, na recomendação de conteúdo e na gestão de contratos foram desenvolvidos majoritariamente por empresas americanas, segundo padrões americanos, com dados que refletem realidades americanas. O viés não é necessariamente malicioso. Mas é estrutural. E tende a se aprofundar na medida em que o Brasil sustenta sua infraestrutura cognitiva sobre servidores sujeitos ao CLOUD Act americano, a lei que autoriza o governo federal dos EUA a requisitar dados armazenados por provedores americanos em qualquer jurisdição do mundo, independentemente de onde o servidor esteja fisicamente localizado. Leia tambémInteligência artificial: China alerta para cenário apocalíptico ao estilo 'O Exterminador do Futuro' O próprio debate regulatório revela a ambiguidade. O Senado brasileiro tem acompanhado de perto o AI Act europeu como referência normativa para sua legislação nacional, e o projeto em discussão cria um sistema de governança de IA sob a responsabilidade da Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados. Na teoria, é soberania. Na prática, o discurso regulatório aponta para autonomia, mas a implementação é operada por corporações multinacionais americanas. O Brasil faz a lei, mas quem comanda a infraestrutura sobre a qual essa lei incide são outros. Isso não é uma acusação. É uma descrição de como o poder funciona no século 21. Brasil é maior mercado de dados da América Latina A boa notícia é que o Brasil tem cartas genuínas nessa mesa. É o maior mercado de dados da América Latina, tem uma das matrizes energéticas mais limpas do mundo, o que importa imensamente para data centers, e produziu o Pix, um dos sistemas de pagamentos digitais mais sofisticados em operação no planeta. Quando Washington e Pequim disputam o Brasil como parceiro de IA, não o fazem por generosidade. É porque o país tem o que ambos precisam: escala, energia e população conectada. A dependência, se vier, será escolhida, não imposta. A pergunta que o debate público brasileiro ainda não fez com a seriedade necessária é esta: ao aceitar o pacote completo de IA americano, com seus chips, seus modelos, seus padrões de governança e suas obrigações de compliance, o que o Brasil está abrindo mão em troca? Não em termos comerciais, mas em termos de autonomia sobre decisões que, daqui a dez anos, serão tomadas por sistemas que alguém, em algum lugar, já programou.

En Turquie, la question de la laïcité et de l'islam reviennent sur le devant de la scène. Pendant le mois du ramadan, une violente polémique a opposé de nombreux intellectuels au président Erdogan. En Turquie le retour du combat pour la laïcité Les premiers reprochent au pouvoir de conduire une islamisation de la société au mépris du principe de laïcité inscrit dans la Constitution. C'est le reportage à Ankara d'Anne Andlauer. Dans la turbulence mondiale, on oublierait presque que l'Espagne vit ces jours-ci au rythme de la semaine sainte, de ses processions au son des cuivres, tambours et appels à prière. Ces chars monumentaux couverts de feuille d'or et de fleurs accompagnés des pénitents, c'est toute une tradition qui remonte au Moyen Âge pour rappeler la passion du Christ. Des centaines de milliers de touristes font le déplacement. Mais, en ce début de mois d'avril 2026, la polémique enfle, autour des pratiques sexistes de certaines confréries à l'opposé de l'engagement du gouvernement Sanchez pour l'égalité hommes-femmes.

In this episode of Beauty Bytes, I sit down with Courtney Van Bussum, the Chief Operating Officer of Longevity Launch Labs, an innovation incubator dedicated to translating cutting-edge cellular science into real-world medical solutions. We go way beyond the basics to explore the mitochondria—the ancient, alien-like "batteries" living inside our cells that power everything from our heartbeat to our collagen production .Courtney explains why mitochondrial dysfunction is actually the root cause of aging symptoms we hate, like brain fog, skin dullness, and even gray hair (did you know gray hair is just your follicle running out of energy to produce pigment?) . We discuss the concept of hormesis—using good stress like exercise and intermittent fasting to make your cells stronger—and why you might need to "starve" your cells at night to help them repair.We also get into the nitty-gritty of supplementation. We break down why 1-MNA might be safer than aggressive NAD+ IV drips, why creatine isn't just for bodybuilders (it's a brain and beauty super-fuel!), and the emerging world of mitochondrial peptides like SS-31.

On Monday, burst pipes caused major flooding at the Douglas hospital, sending water pouring through ceilings and onto ultra-sensitive scientific equipment across more than a dozen labs. It’s the second flooding incident in just two years, and it comes as staff and researchers continue to warn that the Douglas facilities are in poor condition and in urgent need of modernization. Just days before this latest incident, a petition calling on the Quebec government to act quickly was submitted to the National Assembly.

Private equity is reshaping healthcare—but at what cost? In this eye-opening episode of Beyond the Mask, Sharon and Jeremy welcome back Daniel King, DNP, MNA, CRNA, CPPS, CNE and Jennifer Banek, MSN, MHA, CRNA for a candid conversation about how private equity ownership affects anesthesia and beyond. They explain how investor-driven models prioritize profit over patient care, share real-world stories of unsafe conditions and staff cutbacks, and reveal how financial engineering often leaves hospitals saddled with debt. Keep in mind, not all private equity is bad or creates the problems we discuss in this episode. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

(3:42) Bible Study from Maccabees – 1 & 2 Maccabees are often neglected but are very important for us in understanding the plan of God. Did you know the New Testament is a lot thinner than the Old Testament? That is because the New Testament is simply the fulfillment of the Old Testament. As Catholics, we need to consider the history of salvation, and reading Maccabees can help us do that. (23:40) Break 1 Letters: (26:29) Email – Celia: Why was the veil of the Holy of Holies torn in 2 when Jesus died? (31:52) Email - I am feeling hopeless. How can I overcome this? (40:39) Break 2 (41:11) Word of the Day - “Mna” (44:47) Phones: (45:18) Carlos - In the case of an emergency and when there is no water, what do you do for Baptism? (47:07) Bob - My grandkids aren’t being taught good Catholic teaching at home. Where can I start with them?

Is NAD really the fountain of youth, or just another overhyped supplement trend? From energy boosts to wrinkle reduction, the excitement is everywhere, but the truth is a lot more complex. In this episode, I sit down with biomedical engineer Courtney Van Bussum to cut through the noise. Courtney brings deep expertise in cellular and longevity science,, giving her a unique perspective on both the research and the real-world clinical applications. We cover: What NAD actually is and why it's essential for energy, longevity, and healthy aging. How to know if your NAD levels are low and whether it even matters. The biggest myths and misconceptions about NAD supplements. NAD changes in pre- versus post-menopause. Why precursors like NR and NMN may backfire if deeper pathways aren't addressed. Free and low-cost ways to preserve and recycle NAD naturally. What you need to know about the molecule 1-MNA (and why it may be more important than NAD itself). Courtney Van Bussum is the COO and co-founder of Longevity Launch Labs, an innovation incubator accelerating breakthrough products and companies in cellular and longevity medicine. With a background in biomedical engineering and early experience as a strategy consultant working with both Fortune 500s and startups, Courtney brings a rare blend of scientific insight and operational execution. Before launching Longevity Launch Labs, she helped modernize operations at the Boulder Longevity Institute—one of the country's leading functional and regenerative medicine clinics. Courtney's mission is to help build parallel systems that make healthcare smarter, more proactive, and more personal—especially in the rapidly evolving world of cellular health.

There's an air of excitement in Ottawa as it prepares for King Charles III to arrive and deliver the speech from the throne, which lays out the Liberal government's plan and priorities. His visit is also widely seen as pushback against U.S. President Donald Trump's threats to turn Canada into the 51st state. But according to the new U.S. ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra, that saga is over and Canada should move on. He sits with Catherine Cullent to discuss that and the next steps in the Canada-U.S. relationship.Plus, after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Canada of emboldening Hamas, a Middle East expert joins The House to talk about if there's been a shift in Canadian-Israeli relations. Then, a constitutional expert, a royal watcher, an Indigenous leader and members of Quebec's sovereignty parties talk about what message King Charles' speech will send to Trump — or whether the whole thing ultimately means nothing to the U.S. president.Finally, the parliamentary bureau chief of the National Post and the Ottawa bureau chief of La Presse explain what to look for in the government's to-do list.This episode features the voices of:Pete Hoekstra, U.S. ambassador to CanadaThomas Juneau, University of Ottawa political science professorPatricia Treble, royal watcherPhilippe Lagassé, Carleton University political science professorPerry Bellegarde, former national chief of the Assembly of First NationsPascal Bérubé, Parti Québécois MNACatherine Gentilcore, Parti Québécois MNARuba Ghazal, Québec solidaire MNAStuart Thomson, National Post parliamentary bureau chiefJoel-Denis Bellavance, La Presse Ottawa bureau chief

Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell, but their role in longevity and overall health goes far beyond energy production.

Em meio a uma concorrência mundial acirrada pelo desenvolvimento da inteligência artificial (IA), um grupo de países busca impulsionar o chamado uso “frugal” da tecnologia. A diminuição do impacto ambiental da IA foi um dos focos da Cúpula para a Ação sobre a Inteligência Artificial, sediado em Paris esta semana. A declaração final do evento foi clara: prega “uma inteligência artificial sustentável e inclusiva para a população e o planeta”. Os Estados Unidos, em pleno revés ambiental após o retorno de Donald Trump, não assinaram o comunicado, ao contrário de outros 61 países, entre eles o Brasil.Estima-se que a poluição digital pelo uso crescente da internet responda por 4% das emissões mundiais de gases de efeito estufa a cada ano. Mas a IA, em especial a generativa, alça este impacto a um patamar jamais visto, salienta Aurélie Bugeau, pesquisadora em Informática da Universidade de Bordeaux e uma das autoras do texto de referência da Agência Francesa de Normas sobre a inteligência artificial frugal. A França foi pioneira mundial em determinar, no ano passado, parâmetros para limitar o impacto ambiental da IA.“Já temos um crescimento exponencial só nessa fase de treinamentos dos modelos de IA generativa: do número de placas gráficas utilizadas, do consumo de energia. Portanto as emissões de gases de efeito estufa estão também em crescimento exponencial, assim como o esgotamento dos recursos abióticos, ou seja, não vivos, segue nessa mesma trajetória”, explica a especialista.Riscos x benefícios O tema pode ser visto sob dois prismas: se, por um lado, os data centers e os bilhões de cálculos realizados pela IA exigem um uso exponencial tanto de energia e água, quanto de matérias-primas, como metais raros, por outro o avanço da tecnologia oferece um manancial de oportunidades para melhorar a pegada de carbono nos mais variados setores.A IA pode ter aplicações concretas para ajudar a enfrentar os problemas ambientais, como impulsionar energias descarbonizadas, melhorar eficiência energética dos transportes e da agricultura, e assim, cortar emissões.Os seus avanços também poderão ser úteis para ser usada para prevenir enchentes, evitar o desperdício de recursos naturais, detectar escapamentos de metano na indústria fóssil, além de identificar irregularidades em diferentes atividades, como o desmatamento ou a pesca ilegais. Diversas iniciativas são descritas no coletivo Climate Change AI, alimentado por especialistas e pesquisadores.Entretanto, por enquanto, o lado mais visível da moeda é a disparada das emissões das grandes empresas de tecnologia: a Microsoft aumentou 30% entre 2020 e 2023, e a Google chegou a 48%, devido ao desenvolvimento de suas inteligências artificiais. Elas exigem uma alta significativa do consumo de energia para alimentar as máquinas, processadores e chips superpotentes, e de água para resfriar os data centers que abrigam as suas informações.Leia tambémNa corrida mundial pela IA, UE aposta em proteção de dados para se diferenciar de excessos de concorrentesNa Irlanda, os data centers podem, já em 2026, ser responsáveis por nada menos do que 30% do uso total de eletricidade no país. Para países como a França, a saída para compensar este impacto brutal é apostar na descarbonização da energia – mas isso não resolve o gargalo do uso excessivo de água para o resfriamento das infraestruturas.“As empresas alertam que é um verdadeiro desafio para elas conseguirem atingir a neutralidade de carbono que era visada para 2030, afinal a IA traz novos desafios. Por isso que esse imenso consumo de energia pode levar à reabertura de usinas nucleares, como nos Estados Unidos, sob o impulso da Microsoft”, nota Bugeau.'Não precisa de ChatGPT para encontrar um restaurante'A IA frugal aparece como uma espécie de guia para que empresas, governos e instituições busquem desenvolver e utilizar essa tecnologia, porém com os menores danos possíveis ao planeta – de modo que os benefícios da inteligência artificial se sobreponham aos riscos.“Tem muitas e muitas aplicações possíveis, mas hoje não existe, que eu saiba ou meus colegas saibam, avaliações completas sobre os ‘riscos' versus ‘benefícios' da IA para o meio ambiente. Por enquanto, as promessas são apenas promessas e pouco foi provado”, salienta Bugeau. “Nos faltam dados porque falta transparência, da parte dos industriais. Os pesquisadores são obrigados a estimar os dados, pois não têm informações completas sobre toda a cadeia da IA, da fabricação das máquinas passando pelo uso e o fim de vida delas, e que não são divulgadas.”A IA frugal também significa especificar melhor as diferentes utilizações da tecnologia – e inclui aceitar não utilizá-la sistematicamente, apesar das facilidades que ela traz. Segundo a Agência Internacional de Energia (AIE), a IA generativa consome 10 vezes de vezes mais energia por ser polivalente – combina outras inteligências artificiais especializadas, capazes de executar diferentes tarefas como procurar, traduzir, combinar, resumir, escrever e criar novos dados. Não é necessário recorrer a uma plataforma com capacidades gigantescas como ChatGPT para uma busca simples, que demanda muito menos dados para uma resposta satisfatória – portanto, exige menos infraestruturas e energia do que a gigante mundial da inteligência artificial generativa. “Você não precisa usar o ChatGPT para encontrar um bom restaurante”, disse a ministra francesa da Transição Ecológica, Agnès Pannier-Runacher, à emissora BFMTV.

Finding Peace During the Busy Season Welcome to another episode of the Mna-to-Man Podcast, “'Tis The Busy Season.” With the holiday rush upon us, this episode explores how we can find peace amidst the busyness of December. We'll discuss practical ways to create moments of stillness, embrace rest, and stay connected to God as the true reason for the season. This is a time to slow down, reflect, and prioritize what truly matters. Embracing Stillness Amidst the Rush The holiday season can be overwhelming, with endless to-do lists, family gatherings, and last-minute shopping. In our conversation, we shared about planning family outings and Christmas light tours, which can still feel like a whirlwind. Even with fun traditions, it's essential to find those intentional quiet moments. Key Takeaways: Prioritize Quiet Time: Taking even a few minutes each day can bring peace and clarity. Reframe the Season's Purpose: Remember that Christmas celebrates Christ's arrival—a moment of peace in a chaotic world. Challenge: This week, consider setting aside small moments for stillness. How might these moments help you find peace during this busy season? Scripture Reflection: Psalm 46:10 says, “Be still, and know that I am God.” Finding peace means pausing and acknowledging […] The post Tis The Busy Season appeared first on UNCOMMEN.

Une mise à l'épreuve éducative Aujourd’hui, on juge Sofiane en audience de sanction. C’est un MNA : un mineur non accompagné. Sofiane est arrivé en France tout seul à l’âge de 14 ans. Aujourd’hui, il a 18 ans. Il y a 6 mois, il a été reconnu coupable de trafic de stupéfiants et de violences sur un policier. Pour décider de la sanction, on doit tenir compte de son évolution au cours des 6 derniers mois. Dans le jargon de la justice, ça s’appelle : la période de mise à l’épreuve éducative.Délits mineursDélits mineurs raconte la justice des mineurs depuis le point de vue d’une assesseure au tribunal pour enfants de Bobigny, en Seine-Saint-Denis. Les assesseurs sont des citoyens-bénévoles qui assistent le juge des enfants dans les affaires où des mineurs sont suspectés d’avoir commis des délits graves, parfois des crimes. Il y a un juge et deux assesseurs par audience. En délibéré, les décisions se prennent à la majorité des voix. Le juge et les assesseurs disposent chacun d’une voix, de valeur égale. Chaque épisode de Délits mineurs plonge l’auditeur dans l’histoire d’un jeune, dans le déroulement d’une audience et dans une expérience subjective, parfois déchirante : celle de juger.Délits mineurs est un podcast bi-mensuel, à retrouver tous les quinze jours sur ARTE Radio et les plateformes d'écoute.

Le 30 septembre est désormais la journée nationale de la Vérité et de la Réconciliation. Mais pour l'avocat, ancien député et organisateur communautaire Alexis Wawanoloath, on ne peut atteindre la réconciliation entre les Peuples autochtones et l'État colonial qu'en prenant le temps de mener un processus, long et difficile, de guérison et de restitution. Alexis Wawanoloath démontre que les intérêts politiques et économiques des agences gouvernementales priment toujours sur les droits des communautés autochtones, dans le continuum d'un projet colonial amorcé il y a des siècles. Dans la deuxième partie de l'émission, Emilie échange avec son invité sur la place des personnes autochtones dans les médias. Ensemble, ils se demandent comment dépasser le phénomène de ‘tokenisation' et si tous deux doivent vivre avec ça. September 30th is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. But for the lawyer, former MNA and community organizer Alexis Wawanoloath, reconciliation between Indigenous Peoples and the colonial state can only be achieved by taking the time to undertake a long and difficult process of healing and restitution. Alexis Wawanoloath demonstrates that the political and economic interests of government agencies always take precedence over the rights of Indigenous communities, in the continuum of a colonial project that began centuries ago. In the second part of the show, Emilie discusses with her guest the place of Indigenous People in the media. Together, they wonder how to overcome the phenomenon of ‘tokenization' and whether they should have to live with it.Animation : Emilie NicolasGénérique : Lucie Laumonier (Production), Tristan Capacchione (Production technique), max collins (Coordination de production)Coanimation : Alexis WawanoloathPour en savoir plus :Alexis Wawanoloath sur FacebookLa journée de la Vérité et de la Réconciliation — APTNAutochtones et Hydro-Québec: le grand malaise des factures impayées — Radio-CanadaSuivre l'actualité au Liban — Al-JazeeraKwé, Bonjour (rattrapage) — Canal MSi vous appréciez ce podcast, soutenez-nous !

durée : 01:00:51 - LSD, la série documentaire - par : Raphaël Krafft - Les Mineurs Non Accompagnés (MNA) attendent des mois, parfois des années, pour accéder à leur vœu le plus cher : l'école. Orientés le plus souvent dans des filières professionnelles, certains, comme Mohammed et Mamadou, se lancent dans de longues études. - réalisation : David Jacubowiez

À Marseille, entre 150 et 200 personnes se déclarant mineurs dorment dehors. Le département doit les prendre en charge, mais se dit débordé et prêt à se mettre « hors la loi » en les refusant. En France, 16 700 mineurs étrangers sont arrivés en 2019 et 14 700 en 2022, après une baisse durant les années Covid. (Rediffusion) Dans le hall d'un bel immeuble du boulevard Longchamp, à Marseille, un brouhaha monte des escaliers. En bas des marches, des néons tressautent et tentent d'éclairer les deux pièces exiguës du sous-sol. Une cinquantaine de jeunes attend d'atteindre l'une des deux bénévoles. « Et hier c'était pire ! », crie Monique Cherel depuis l'autre bout de la cave.Deux fois par semaine, le Collectif 59 Saint-Just oriente les jeunes, fait le point sur leur situation, distribue des cartes téléphoniques. Parfois aussi, des tickets alimentaires de l'Abbé Pierre. C'est en réalité ce que beaucoup de jeunes sont venus chercher. « Je n'ai pas mangé depuis hier… » Mais Monique n'a plus de ticket, tout a été distribué la veille. « Je sais, j'étais là. Mais on était trop, je n'en ai pas eu. »Leurs visages sont creusés, parfois à l'extrême, les yeux rougis, le regard vide. Un jeune garçon sautille sur place, compulsivement. « Tu n'as pas besoin de parler, regarde juste leur tête : tu vois que ça ne va pas », souffle un garçon. À défaut de pouvoir manger, ils essaient de se réchauffer. Entre 150 et 200 personnes dorment dans la rue ou dans des squats à Marseille, selon les collectifs.Une majorité, reconnus mineurs en recoursLes jeunes se succèdent devant « Madame Catherine » qui remplit des fiches : « Tu as quel âge ? Tu dors où ? » Alassane* a 16 ans, il dort dans une tente. « Je vais faire une demande d'avocate pour toi. Tu as déjà fait l'évaluation de ta minorité avec l'Addap 13 ? »L'Addap 13 est l'association mandatée par le département des Bouches-du-Rhône (13) pour prendre en charge les mineurs non accompagnés (MNA). Mais ici comme ailleurs, les départements sont débordés. Pourtant, en 2022, le nombre de MNA est inférieur à celui de 2019, avant la crise sanitaire. De 16 700 à 14 700.Quand une place se libère, les jeunes sont logés à l'hôtel puis convoqués pour réaliser une « évaluation », durant laquelle le Département vérifie qu'ils sont mineurs. David Lemonnier, directeur général adjoint de l'Addap 13 admet que la plupart des évaluations conduisent à « la majorité » : 7 jeunes sur 10 sont déboutés en 2022.Politique de découragementCes jeunes attendent alors que leur demande de minorité soit réévaluée par le juge des enfants. En recours, 75% finissent finalement par avoir gain de cause, selon les associations. Une « politique de découragement », selon Jeanne, collectif 113. Ils ne sont pas les bienvenus : on les déclare majeurs pour qu'ils quittent le territoire. » Le sérieux des évaluations est aussi contesté. Sur celle de Moussa*, il est écrit : « L'intéressé ne semble pas intimidé par l'évaluateur [...], son langage et sa posture ne font pas ceux d'un adolescent mais d'un adulte [...]. Il ne présente pas les caractéristiques physiques d'un adolescent de 15 ans. » Sur la dernière page du dossier, la photocopie intégrale de son acte de naissance.David Lemonnier réfute toute subjectivité : « Nous sommes régulièrement contrôlés et la procédure est conforme. Et l'Addap 13 n'a aucune consigne du Département. » Mais pour Marlène Youchenko, avocate, le fait que les départements soient juges et parties pose un problème d'impartialité.En attendant leur recours, les jeunes ne sont plus protégés, sauf si le juge des enfants délivre une ordonnance de placement, ce qui arrive de moins en moins souvent, déplore l'avocate. « Juridiquement, c'est un trou dans la raquette », admet David Lemonnier. « Ils passent six mois ou un an dehors, dénonce Jeanne. Sans les bénévoles, ils mourraient et seraient en proie à tous les trafics. C'est de la non-assistance à personne en danger. »Crise de l'accueilUn bras de fer se joue déjà entre les départements et l'État. L'Ain (01) a indiqué ne plus accueillir de MNA pendant trois mois. Martine Vassal, présidente du Conseil départemental (13) est prête à se mettre « hors la loi ». Ça ne serait pas la première fois : elle a déjà été plusieurs fois condamnée par le tribunal administratif. La question des MNA ne figure pas dans la loi immigration, ce que déplore l'Assemblée des départements de France (ADF). Gérald Darmanin leur a promis des aides financières.La question des moyens est indéniable. Mais les collectifs dénoncent unanimement un manque de volonté politique, alors que Martine Vassal revendique de fortes positions anti-immigration. En septembre, avant l'arrivée du Pape à Marseille, 40 jeunes ont occupé une église. Pour éviter le scandale, le département les a relogés en quelques jours. « On entend parler d'une "crise migratoire", il s'agit en réalité d'une crise de l'accueil », estime Jeanne.Au milieu du champ de bataille, des jeunes essaient de ne pas mourir. « Je ne pensais pas que ça allait être si difficile », murmure Joël*, assis dans la cave du boulevard Longchamp. Après avoir quitté sa famille, traversé le désert et la mer sur une embarcation de fortune, il ne pensait pas dormir à la gare. « Là-bas, des inconnus nous donnent 5 euros pour manger. Le lendemain ils reviennent et nous proposent de vendre de la drogue. On refuse, mais on va manger comment ? » À l'autre bout de la cave, comme un disque fatigué, Monique Cherel répète en boucle : « Nous-n'av-ons pas-de-tic-kets-au-jour-d'hui ! ». Mais les jeunes ne peuvent pas l'entendre : « On a besoin d'aide », implorent-ils en se faisant passer une boîte de Nesquik trouvée on-ne-sait-où qu'ils vident par poignées affamées.*prénoms d'emprunt.

In this episode, we delve into a revolutionary longevity molecule that you might not have heard of before: 1-MNA. If you're interested in staying younger longer and if you want to maintain your energy and vitality then this is an episode for you. Perhaps you have read the groundbreaking book by Dr David Sinclair "Lifespan" where he talks about NAD and how crucial it is for the body and how it can help upregulate sirtuin genes (longevity genes) and help you maintain your cellular health and energy. We are now 4 years on we have more data, studies and information to share in this arena. Perhaps you have been trying to improve  your NAD metabolism, taking NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide)  or NR (nicotinamide riboside), and upregulating sirtuin genes, if you have then you need to hear this.  We'll explore the intricacies of NAD pathways, the role of key enzymes, and why simply supplementing with NAD precursors may not be the best holistic approach and how we can improve on that approach to anti-aging Key Points Discussed: Introduction to NAD Metabolism: Overview of previous episodes on NAD metabolism with experts like Professor Joseph Baur, Dr. Elizabeth Yurth from the Boulder Longevity Institute, and Dr. Elena Seranova. Importance of understanding the complexities of NAD pathways beyond the basics. Understanding 1-MNA: Explanation of 1-MNA and its role in controlling NAD levels by blocking the enzyme NNMT (Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase). The dangers of upregulating NNMT, which degrades NAD and can lead to various health issues. Key Enzymes in NAD Metabolism: Discussion on the salvage pathway and two critical enzymes that degrade NAD. Importance of regulating NNMT to prevent its deleterious effects, particularly in senescent cells, cancer cells, and fat cells. Benefits of 1-MNA How 1-MNA can help maintain a balanced NAD metabolism by inhibiting NNMT. Potential benefits for conditions like schizophrenia, neurodegeneration, liver diseases, and cancer. Research and Studies: Overview of studies showing the positive effects of 1-MNA on post-COVID conditions, inflammation, and mitochondrial function. Insights from animal studies on 1-MNA's protective effects against metabolic disorders. Practical Applications: Recommendations for integrating 1-MNA into supplement regimens, especially for those taking NMN or NR. Potential benefits for various conditions, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, cardiac disease, liver disease, cancer risk, long COVID, and fatigue. Balancing NAD Levels: Importance of maintaining NAD levels for energy production, DNA repair, neurotransmitter health, and longevity. The role of NAD as a redox molecule and the balance between NAD+ and NADH. Conclusion: Encouragement to explore further research on NNMT and its impact on health. Final thoughts on the potential of 1-MNAas a crucial supplement for maintaining NAD balance and promoting longevity.

Substance Use Disorder (SUD) impacts all types of people but trying to confront addiction is never easy. Today we'll try to unravel the stigma surrounding SUD among anesthesia providers with Amy Yerdon, DNP, MNA, CRNA, CNE. Our discussion illuminates the personal and professional challenges that arise when confronting substance abuse within our ranks. We tackle the complexities of recognizing signs of diversion and the imperative actions that follow, while sharing the poignant emotional toll it takes on everyone involved.   Here's some of what we discuss in this episode: Her perceptions about people with SUD and how that's changed as she's learned more about the disease. Stories that highlight how much more common this is than many people want to believe. Understanding the pharmacology and physiology of substance use disorder may help decrease our negative perceptions. Understanding the occupational and personal factors making anesthesia providers more likely to fall into SUD may help change negative perc Why anesthesia providers should look out for one another and communicate when they see something.   About our guest: https://scholars.uab.edu/6674-amy-yerdon   Visit us online: https://beyondthemaskpodcast.com/   Get the CE Certificate here: https://beyondthemaskpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Beyond-the-Mask-CE-Cert-FILLABLE.pdf   Help us grow by leaving a review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-the-mask-innovation-opportunities-for-crnas/id1440309246   Donate to Our Heart Your Hands here: https://www.ourheartsyourhands.org/donate
