In quel tempo, Gesù disse ai farisei: «C'era un uomo ricco, che indossava vestiti di porpora e di lino finissimo, e ogni giorno si dava a lauti banchetti. Un povero, di nome Lazzaro, stava alla sua porta, coperto di piaghe, bramoso di sfamarsi con quello che cadeva dalla tavola del ricco; ma erano i cani che venivano a leccare le sue piaghe. Un giorno il povero morì e fu portato dagli angeli accanto ad Abramo. Morì anche il ricco e fu sepolto. Stando negli inferi fra i tormenti, alzò gli occhi e vide di lontano Abramo, e Lazzaro accanto a lui. Allora gridando disse: "Padre Abramo, abbi pietà di me e manda Lazzaro a intingere nell'acqua la punta del dito e a bagnarmi la lingua, perché soffro terribilmente in questa fiamma". Ma Abramo rispose: "Figlio, ricòrdati che, nella vita, tu hai ricevuto i tuoi beni, e Lazzaro i suoi mali; ma ora in questo modo lui è consolato, tu invece sei in mezzo ai tormenti. Per di più, tra noi e voi è stato fissato un grande abisso: coloro che di qui vogliono passare da voi, non possono, né di lì possono giungere fino a noi". E quello replicò: "Allora, padre, ti prego di mandare Lazzaro a casa di mio padre, perché ho cinque fratelli. Li ammonisca severamente, perché non vengano anch'essi in questo luogo di tormento". Ma Abramo rispose: "Hanno Mosè e i Profeti; ascoltino loro". E lui replicò: "No, padre Abramo, ma se dai morti qualcuno andrà da loro, si convertiranno". Abramo rispose: "Se non ascoltano Mosè e i Profeti, non saranno persuasi neanche se uno risorgesse dai morti"».
In quel tempo, Gesù si rivolse alla folla e ai suoi discepoli dicendo: «Sulla cattedra di Mosè si sono seduti gli scribi e i farisei. Praticate e osservate tutto ciò che vi dicono, ma non agite secondo le loro opere, perché essi dicono e non fanno. Legano infatti fardelli pesanti e difficili da portare e li pongono sulle spalle della gente, ma essi non vogliono muoverli neppure con un dito. Tutte le loro opere le fanno per essere ammirati dalla gente: allargano i loro filattèri e allungano le frange; si compiacciono dei posti d'onore nei banchetti, dei primi seggi nelle sinagoghe, dei saluti nelle piazze, come anche di essere chiamati "rabbì" dalla gente. Ma voi non fatevi chiamare "rabbì", perché uno solo è il vostro Maestro e voi siete tutti fratelli. E non chiamate "padre" nessuno di voi sulla terra, perché uno solo è il Padre vostro, quello celeste. E non fatevi chiamare "guide", perché uno solo è la vostra Guida, il Cristo. Chi tra voi è più grande, sarà vostro servo; chi invece si esalterà, sarà umiliato e chi si umilierà sarà esaltato».
"Herren sa til Moses: 'Se, du skal gå til hvile hos dine fedre. Da skal dette folket stå opp og drive hor med de fremmede gudene i det landet de kommer inn i. De skal forlate Meg og bryte Min pakt som Jeg har sluttet med dem.'"(5. Mos. 31,16)Moses var 120 år gammel, og de siste 40 årene hadde han ledet Israelsfolket gjennom ørkenen. Det hadde vært slit og kamp hele tida, og nå får Moses høre at det kommer til å rakne helt når han er død. Det er jo til å bli motløs av.Det minner om Jesus, før Han døde. Han hadde investert alt i de 12 disiplene som kranglet, misforstod og tvilte. På toppen av alt visste Jesus at Peter kom til å fornekte Ham og alle kom til å stikke av. At Han gadd likevel!Ja, takk Gud at Han gidder selv om Han vet at vi svikter! Han advarer, ikke for å ta motet fra oss, men for å vise at Han kjenner oss bedre enn vi gjør selv, og for å mane til omvendelse. For løftene til israelsfolket, til Peter og disiplene, de var rike og store hvis de vendte om. Det kan vi lese i Bibelen (30,1-10; Matt. 26,31-32; 28,16-20; Luk. 22,32). Og disse løftene gjelder oss også! Om vi svikter, men vender om, så er Gud der!Og så kan vi ta med oss ordene i dag, om at det er Guds plan som Han driver fram. Det er Han som har ansvaret, og det er Han som bærer byrden. Han er trofast. Heldigvis så hviler det ikke på oss. Men så kan vi få lov til å koble oss på, og være med på det og bli en del av det. Og det er stort!Skrevet og lest av Eli Fuglestad for Norea Håpets Kvinner.

In quel tempo, Gesù prese con sé Pietro, Giacomo e Giovanni suo fratello e li condusse in disparte, su un alto monte. E fu trasfigurato davanti a loro: il suo volto brillò come il sole e le sue vesti divennero candide come la luce. Ed ecco apparvero loro Mosè ed Elia, che conversavano con lui. Prendendo la parola, Pietro disse a Gesù: «Signore, è bello per noi essere qui! Se vuoi, farò qui tre capanne, una per te, una per Mosè e una per Elia». Egli stava ancora parlando, quando una nube luminosa li coprì con la sua ombra. Ed ecco una voce dalla nube che diceva: «Questi è il Figlio mio, l'amato: in lui ho posto il mio compiacimento. Ascoltatelo». All'udire ciò, i discepoli caddero con la faccia a terra e furono presi da grande timore. Ma Gesù si avvicinò, li toccò e disse: «Alzatevi e non temete». Alzando gli occhi non videro nessuno, se non Gesù solo. Mentre scendevano dal monte, Gesù ordinò loro: «Non parlate a nessuno di questa visione, prima che il Figlio dell'uomo non sia risorto dai morti».
Prædiken sætter fokus på erfaringen af magtesløshed gennem teksterne fra 1 Mos 1 og Mark 9, hvor Guds skabte harmoni står i kontrast til menneskets kaos. Jakob prædikede og Signe kom med et dryp fra sit eget liv.

S.O.S. (Stories of Service) - Ordinary people who do extraordinary work
Send a textAre veterans gaming the system, or are we trapped in a shallow debate that ignores the law, the medicine, and the lived reality of service? We dig into the difference between media narratives and VA standards with guest Jane Babcock—Army and Army Reserve retiree, former accredited county veteran service officer, and a relentless advocate who's helped file over 1,200 claims.We start by clarifying what disability compensation really is: payment for lost earning capacity tied to service-connected conditions, not a ban on work. From there, we break down presumptive conditions like ALS, the overlooked wartime pension, and why “equipoise” requires raters to side with veterans when evidence is evenly balanced. Jane shares a powerful case where MOS duties and OSHA data linked a young non-smoker's aggressive cancer to specific chemical exposure, proving how targeted research can win tough claims.The conversation then tackles the now-rescinded proposal to rate disabilities in a medicated state. We explain why symptom control isn't cure, how such a rule would punish adherence and invite churn, and how courts have already affirmed ratings must reflect unmedicated baselines. On mental health, we draw the line between stabilization and recovery, outline practical steps to secure DSM-5 diagnoses with Vet Center counseling and VA psychiatry, and stress the power of detailed buddy statements for incidents that never made it into records.We also spotlight the structural mess: VHA, VBA, and cemetery services run on different rails; community and contracted care don't always flow back; and older records can disappear. The fix on the veteran side is ownership—gather civilian files, align diagnoses to rating codes, and work with an accredited VSO who can flag special monthly compensation, aid and attendance, and survivor benefits. Even with OTH discharges, VA adjudication can reopen doors when the facts support service connection.If this conversation helps you or someone you love, share it with a fellow vet, subscribe for more candid guides, and leave a review so others can find it.

Happy Friday Mosquitoes & Mossies!In honour of our real life besties NEVER listening to our advice, we started this ep off with a lil bit of healing by way of giving advice to our bollywood besties who we believe had gone down the wrong path. Criminal guys and gals seem to be the flavour of the season when it comes to falling in love, and MOS does not approve. By popular demand we are back with an episode on the futility of advising your girl besties, broken female friendships, bury-the-body friends, and the myth that is a mature friendship breakup. Naina and Sakshi debate the difference between supporting your friends and enabling them, with a humble request from Sakshi to do some enabling when it comes to Meerut pronunciations. We also discussed whether our parent's generation did friendship better, Naina tried to start a pen pal community, and Sakshi requested that you remember that this is a comedy podcast - so have some pity on a bin-byaahi beti. Finally, we unpacked a few stories from MOS listeners who experienced some insane girl besties, and took a moment of silence for the mom friend of the group (hug your nearest mom friend, give them a day off, pls). Bonus: Exam szn got Sakshi feeling nostalgic and she gave us a mini-recap of a gadhyasankalan short story that has traumatized many an ICSE student.If you are a tru MOS bestie, go enable us by hitting like, share, hype, subscribe, follow, and scream it from the rooftops so that we can hit 100k.

“Scegli dunque la vita!” Testo completo della predicazioneViviamo davvero in una “cultura della morte”? In un tempo in cui la vita umana è spesso valutata in base all'utilità, al successo o al profitto, la Bibbia ci costringe a porci una domanda più profonda. In Deuteronomio 30 Mosè proclama un appello solenne: “Io ti ho posto davanti la vita e la morte… scegli dunque la vita”. Non è un invito generico, ma una decisione che riguarda il cuore, le scelte quotidiane e la direzione di un'intera società. Questa predicazione mostra come l'antica alternativa tra vita e morte parli con forza al nostro tempo e trovi il suo compimento in Cristo. Che cosa significa, oggi, scegliere la vita? E come può una comunità cristiana diventare segno di una cultura della vita in mezzo a una cultura della morte?
TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8419OMELIA II DOMENICA QUARESIMA - ANNO A (Mt 17,1-9) di Padre Stefano M. Miotto Siamo giunti alla seconda Domenica di Quaresima e la prima lettura ci presenta il patriarca Abramo. Invitato da Dio, egli lascia la sua terra, la sua parentela e la casa di suo padre, per andare verso una terra sconosciuta che Dio gli indicherà. II racconto della vocazione di Abramo mette in luce la sua pronta obbedienza alla Volontà di Dio e la sua sconfinata fiducia nell'adempimento delle promesse divine.Dio promette ad Abramo di far di lui una grande nazione e che in lui si diranno benedette «tutte le famiglie della terra» (Gen 12,3). Questa promessa si realizzerà pienamente con Gesù. Con Lui, discendente di Abramo secondo la natura umana, la salvezza è offerta a tutte le nazioni.Abramo parte senza sapere dove andare, animato da una grande fede. Il suo viaggio verso la terra che Dio gli indicherà simboleggia molto bene il nostro pellegrinaggio terreno verso la meta eterna che è il Paradiso. In questo cammino ci sono difficoltà d'ogni genere. Come Abramo, anche noi dobbiamo essere animati da una grande fiducia nelle promesse divine. Se saremo fedeli al Signore, raggiungeremo certamente il termine del nostro cammino.Come Abramo, anche noi dovremo lasciare tutto. Con noi porteremo solo il bene che abbiamo fatto, tutto il resto lo lasceremo su questa terra. Co me Abramo, anche noi dobbiamo essere obbedienti a Dio, compiendo fedelmente la sua Volontà ed evitando il peccato che intralcia il nostro cammino incontro a Lui. Come Abramo, anche noi saremo benedetti, con una benedizione eterna nei CieliIl cammino è lungo e san Paolo, nella seconda lettura di oggi, così esorta Timoteo: «Soffri con me per il Vangelo» (2Tim 1,8). Per rimanere fedele al Vangelo, lungo il non facile cammino di questa vita, e per annunziarlo al mondo, il cristiano deve tener conto che inevitabilmente ci sarà qualcosa da soffrire. L'apostolato di san Paolo fu costantemente contrassegnato dalla croce. Questo non deve però spaventare il fedele discepolo del Signore. Dio - come abbiamo udito nel salmo di oggi - «è nostro aiuto e nostro scudo» (Sal 32,20) e ci sarà accanto nell'ora della prova.In questo cammino è indispensabile una grande fiducia nel Signore, nel suo aiuto onnipotente, e una fervida vita di preghiera, per avere la forza di andare sempre avanti. La necessità della preghiera è messa in luce dal brano del Vangelo che abbiamo prima ascoltato. Gesù condusse in disparte, «su un alto monte» (Mt 17,1), Pietro Giacomo e Giovanni e si trasfigurò davanti a loro, facendo loro scorgere un riflesso della sua Gloria divina.Per i tre Apostoli, l'esperienza della Trasfigurazione fu qualcosa di indimenticabile. Era così grande la loro gioia che avrebbero voluto rimanere lì per sempre, al punto che Pietro chiese di poter fare tre capanne, una per Gesù, una per Mosè e una per Elia. Pietro non aveva ancora compreso che per giungere alla Gloria di Dio bisogna prima passare per la croce. Gesù condusse i tre Apostoli sul monte Tabor, il monte della Trasfigurazione, per fortificarli con l'esperienza della sua Gloria divina, nell'imminenza della sua Passione e Morte in croce. Era bello fermarsi lì, ma gli Apostoli dovettero ridiscendere quel monte e riprendere il cammino dietro Gesù che si incamminava verso un altro monte, quello del Calvario.L'episodio della Trasfigurazione ci insegna la necessità della preghiera. Anche noi dobbiamo salire il "monte della preghiera". Nel silenzio e nel raccoglimento, anche noi faremo una esperienza indimenticabile che darà a noi la forza di andare avanti e di affrontare le inevitabili prove della vita. In questo periodo di Quaresima, troviamo anche noi il tempo per "salire il monte della preghiera". Gesù ci aspetta.Nell'episodio del Vangelo di oggi c'è un altro particolare molto bello: la voce del Padre che dice: «Questi e il Figlio mio, l'amato: in lui ho posto il mio compiacimento. Ascoltatelo» (Mt 17,5). Il Signore ci parla nella preghiera, ispirandoci buoni propositi di miglioramento. Bisogna ascoltarlo. Il Signore ci parla inoltre attraverso la Chiesa, per mezzo dei suoi rappresentanti, iniziando dal Papa. Dobbiamo essere docili al suo Magistero, consapevoli che chi ascolta la Chiesa, e pertanto il Papa, ascolta il Signore.
Fra Francesco Patton, della comunità del memoriale di Mosè al Monte Nebo in Giordania, medita il Vangelo del giorno.Il passo evangelico di oggi è tratto dal Vangelo secondo Matteo 6,7-15.

Hiii Mossies & Mosquitoes, welcome back to another episode of Moment of Silence. This week we took a moment to marvel at how lucky we are to be living in a place that is the very epitome of urban planning with smooth roads, bountiful parks, perfect air and the MOST comfortable public transport system. Is there even a place that could compete? We think not. That's right, this is an episode on all that Mumbai offers us. We talk about Indians and our civic sense, the ever-concerning AQI, construction noise, and Naina's determined quest to see a butterfly in the city. We also dive into Tu Ya Main's crocodile-infested scuba pool and discuss Shanaya Kapoor's flawed understanding of the influencer life. Sakshi takes us on a detour with a breakdown of her trip to Sri Lanka and then we make a small game of choosing between bad public facilities and particularly bad boyfriends. There's also a bit about plurals, or as Sakshi would like me to say plurii - in there, that you should not miss. Anyway, like, comment & don't stand under any bridges.

"Kvinnen ble med barn og fødte en sønn. Da hun så at han var et vakkert barn, gjemte hun ham i tre måneder." (2. Mos. 2,2)Dette var begynnelsen på Moses. Forholdene var langt fra optimale, men han levde opp, mot alle odds. Hva tenkte Jokebed at den vakre sønnen skulle vokse opp til å bli? 40 år seinere flyktet han ut i ørkenen, som drapsmann. Hun fikk ikke se oppfyllelsen av valget hun tok, men vi vet hvor avgjørende det valget var og hvilke frukter det bar!Lois levde muligens et rolig liv, men hun levde med tro, en tro som forplantet seg videre i dattera Eunike og deretter i barnebarnet Timoteus, kan vi lese (2.Tim. 1,5). Han fikk en helt annen tjeneste og posisjon enn dem, men grunnlaget ble lagt i bestemorens og morens hverdagsliv med tro.Det er til oppmuntring for oss som er foreldre. Valg vi tar for barna våre, i lydighet mot Guds ord og til Hans ære, vil bære frukt. Det samme vil en hverdagstro. Kanskje stemmer det ikke overens med våre drømmer, kanskje ser det helt ødelagt ut ei stund. Men i Guds tid skal det spire og blomstre! Om du er der i dag, at dine drømmer for ungene er knust, eller om det ser helt ødelagt ut, eller bare veldig annerledes, og du er forvirret og skjønner ikke helt, så ta med deg disse ordene til oppmuntring. Dine gode valg har betydd noe! Og Gud tar vare på det! Og Han ser allerede i dag oppfyllelsen av det. Og en dag skal det bli oppfylt. Kanskje får du se det, kanskje ikke. Men Gud ser det, og mange andre skal kanskje få se det!Skrevet og lest av Eli Fuglestad for Norea Håpets Kvinner.
"Da Moses gikk inn i Åpenbaringsteltet for å tale med Ham, hørte han Røsten tale til seg fra nådestolen over Vitnesbyrdets ark. Ut fra stedet mellom de to kjerubene talte Røsten til ham." (4. Mos. 7,8-9)Moses hadde vært sammen med Herren oppe på fjellet og hørt Ham snakke der. Nå var Åpenbaringsteltet, eller Tabernaklet som det het, ferdig laget og reist, og prestene hadde ofret gaver og innviet alteret, alt slik som Herren hadde sagt de skulle. Spenningen var kanskje stor da Moses gikk inn i teltet. Ville Herren møte ham også der?Også der hørte Moses den kjente stemmen, Røsten. For en lettelse! Den kom fra nådestolen, et merkelig navn på lokket til kista med lovtavlene i. Det får meg til å tenke på Jesu tronstol.Den står i nådens tronsal, hvor Han som Øversteprest møter oss med medlidenhet, forteller Bibelen (Hebr. 4,15-16). Der kan vi få komme med frimodighet, få miskunn og finne nåde som gir hjelp i rette tid. For Gud er ikke en Gud bare når vi er på høydene, Han er der også i dalene, hver dag på hele livsreisa vår (1. Kong. 20,28)!Ja, tenk det, at vi kan få komme fram i nådens tronsal, fram for nådestolen der Gud lar sin stemme høre! Og vi kan få komme med frimodighet og finne nåde som gir hjelp i rette tid. Det er stort, det!Skrevet og lest av Eli Fuglestad for Norea Håpets Kvinner.

Welcome back to another episode of Moment of Silence — where Valentine's Day is less roses and more reality checks. We start gently with “Do you even believe in love?” and then we get into couple influencers monetising their fights, decode soft launches, hard launches, and breakup triangles. You've heard of Veer Pahariya, Tara Sutaria, and AP Dhillon — but what really goes wrong? We talk power couples minting money, why dating a cricketer suddenly feels strategic, and whether modern relationships are just brand collaborations with feelings attached. Of course, we couldn't resist a chaotic “Would You Rather Date” lineup featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor and more — so tell us in the comments which Bollywood character you're choosing and why.We also touch upon Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, confess our crush on Hrithik Roshan, share a Valentine's survival hack, and drop a slightly dangerous (but effective) strategy to get your man to finally do household chores.This episode is about love, PR, money, ego, delusion, and feminism.

"Herren talte til Moses og Aron og sa: 'Alle Israels barn skal slå leir under sitt eget banner, ved tegnene for sin fars hus. De skal slå leir rundt Åpenbaringsteltet, et stykke unna.'" (4. Mos. 2, 1-2)Jakobs sønner var nå et stort folk. Levi stamme ble tatt ut for å være prester, mens Josefs sønner, både Efraim og Manasse, fikk arverett og ble en stamme hver. Og til sammen var det da 12 stammer + prestene. Prestene skulle slå leir innerst mot teltet som et vern for de andre, mens de andre stammene slo leir utenfor der igjen på alle fire sider av teltet, kan vi lese (1,52-53). Fra hver sin vinkel så de sin side av presteleiren og teltet. For meg ble det et bilde på oss som tror.Vi tilhører ulike trosretninger og menigheter eller forsamlinger, og vi har ulike uttrykk. Vi samles hver for oss, men om et felles punkt, Den Hellige Gud. Ingen mennesker kan komme nær Ham og leve, men vi har presten Jesus som mellommann, sier Bibelen (Hebr. 8,6). Vi ser ulike sider, vi ser stykkevis, men sammen forstår vi summen og er ett folk med én Gud, én tro og så videre, som det står i Bibelen (1. Kor.13,12; Ef.3,17-19;4,4-6)!Ja, kanskje kan vi ha med oss dette bildet når vi møter folk fra andre menigheter med andre typer uttrykk; sang, musikk, væremåte, hva som helst. Det å huske at vi er en del av et folk, og at vi ser Jesus fra ulike vinkler. Og så kan vi lære av hverandre, og så kan det sammen danne seg et stort bilde. Og la oss være ydmyke overfor andre, at vi ikke ser den ene rette siden.Skrevet og lest av Eli Fuglestad for Norea Håpets Kvinner.

Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series! On this edition we welcome MoM (@mommusic) Magician On Duty proudly unveils the latest episode of its Journey Series, featuring none other than MoM — one of Spain's most celebrated and internationally revered electronic music storytellers. Recorded in the heart of the jungle at Libélula Sian Ka'an, Tulum, this new Journey captures MoM in his natural habitat: surrounded by raw nature, deep rhythms, and an audience ready to dance, connect, and play. The result is a hypnotic, soul-moving session that perfectly reflects the spirit of Magician On Duty — music as a bridge between cultures, people, and states of consciousness. With over two decades behind the decks, MoM's sonic universe is rooted in Acid House and Funky Disco, yet constantly evolving. His sound is elegant and deep, driven by curiosity, impeccable taste, and an unmistakable sense of narrative. Ethnic and organic elements play a central role in both his DJ and live sets, pulling listeners into a journey that is immersive, emotional, and anything but indifferent. Beyond the club and festival circuit, MoM's passion for merging music, technology, and culture led him to create Mosáfires, a live project fusing electronic music with Sephardic traditions through a three-musician ensemble — further cementing his reputation as an artist who transcends genres and formats. His global footprint speaks for itself. From Burning Man, Mayan Warrior, Robot Heart, Scorpios, Gardens of Babylon, and Day Zero, to iconic venues and gatherings across Miami, New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, London, Paris, Istanbul, Moscow, Bali, Dubai, Tulum, Ibiza, Mexico City , and countless cultural hotspots throughout Europe, the Americas, and beyond — MoM continues to leave his mark wherever sound and soul meet. With releases on revered labels such as Crosstown Rebels, Still Vor Talent, Bar25, Underyourskin, Rebellion, DeNature, and more, MoM stands today as one of the most outstanding Spanish electronic artists on the international stage. This Magician On Duty Journey Series episode, recorded at Libélula Sian Ka'an (Tulum), is an invitation to step into MoM's world — a flowing, intentional ride through rhythm, culture, and vibration.

Dal Vangelo secondo Marco (7,1-13)In quel tempo, si riunirono attorno a Gesù i farisei e alcuni degli scribi, venuti da Gerusalemme.Avendo visto che alcuni dei suoi discepoli prendevano cibo con mani impure, cioè non lavate – i farisei infatti e tutti i Giudei non mangiano se non si sono lavati accuratamente le mani, attenendosi alla tradizione degli antichi e, tornando dal mercato, non mangiano senza aver fatto le abluzioni, e osservano molte altre cose per tradizione, come lavature di bicchieri, di stoviglie, di oggetti di rame e di letti –, quei farisei e scribi lo interrogarono: «Perché i tuoi discepoli non si comportano secondo la tradizione degli antichi, ma prendono cibo con mani impure?».Ed egli rispose loro: «Bene ha profetato Isaìa di voi, ipocriti, come sta scritto:“Questo popolo mi onora con le labbra,ma il suo cuore è lontano da me.Invano mi rendono culto,insegnando dottrine che sono precetti di uomini”.Trascurando il comandamento di Dio, voi osservate la tradizione degli uomini».E diceva loro: «Siete veramente abili nel rifiutare il comandamento di Dio per osservare la vostra tradizione. Mosè infatti disse: “Onora tuo padre e tua madre”, e: “Chi maledice il padre o la madre sia messo a morte”. Voi invece dite: “Se uno dichiara al padre o alla madre: Ciò con cui dovrei aiutarti è korbàn, cioè offerta a Dio”, non gli consentite di fare più nulla per il padre o la madre. Così annullate la parola di Dio con la tradizione che avete tramandato voi. E di cose simili ne fate molte».

Welcome back to another episode of Moment of Silence. You already know why you clicked, so let's not pretend. We're diving headfirst into this week's main character energy topic: taboo relationships. From porn and taboos being way too closely related, to the icks all thanks to the internet trends. Splitsvilla obsession, and how that chaos spilled straight into Lollapalooza. We're further unpacking age gaps, financial gaps, and the very real fitness gap (we just invented), Inter-caste, queer, lavender relationships — if it makes society uncomfortable, it made it to this episode.And let's be honest — is content creation secretly one of the most classist industries out there? We also switch gears into solving your problems — where the real villains are usually your uncle, your cousin, and sometimes, your own mother. We also introduce the 7-7-7 rule to keep romance alive and our very real takes on celebs still living in the closet. Oh, and we have a hard list of people you should never date — even if they're the last option on Earth. Not done yet. We also talked about Budget 2026 (yes, against our will), gave a round of applause to the smartest women in Meerut & more. If you're still here, help us hit 100k and become part of the chaos.Chaptering- 00:00 – We're back 00:44 – You clicked because you're nosy.

In this episode, eco & Tyler Stevens, CEO and founder of Exergy Heat, to dig into why open-source hardware and firmware are critical for the future of Bitcoin mining, especially for heat reuse in homes and businesses. We had a surprise visit from Skot and Joe Nakamoto dialing in from El Salvador, providing us with updates from the Plan B conference. We talk candidly about the constraints of closed, proprietary miners, shifting hardware trends (hydro-only, three‑phase, fewer 240V options), and how that undermines innovation, safety certification, and reliable product planning. We highlight the emerging open-source mining stack from the 256 Foundation, Mujina (firmware), open hash boards, control boards, and Hydra Pool, plus thriving communities (OSMU Discord, Hashrate Heatpunks, Jua Kali) that are lowering the barrier to actually build hardware with pick-and-place machines. We also cover real-world reference designs like a fully integrated sous vide heater driven by Miner power management and sensor feedback, the Heatpunk Summit bridging HVAC pros and mining devs, and Tether's open-sourced MOS fleet platform. We close with mining-for-heat deployments (from buildings to towns), new pool dashboards, and how anyone can support decentralization by pointing hashrate to our donation-only Hydra Pool instance for the 256 Foundation.

Lo Spirito Santo gli aveva preannunciato che non avrebbe visto la morte senza prima aver veduto il Cristo del Signore.Mosso dallo Spirito, si recò al tempio e, mentre i genitori vi portavano il bambino Gesù per fare ciò che la Legge prescriveva a suo riguardo, anch'egli lo accolse tra le braccia e benedisse Dio, dicendo:"Ora puoi lasciare, o Signore, che il tuo servovada in pace, secondo la tua parola,perché i miei occhi hanno visto la tua salvezza,preparata da te davanti a tutti i popoli:luce per rivelarti alle gentie gloria del tuo popolo, Israele".Il padre e la madre di Gesù si stupivano delle cose che si dicevano di lui. Simeone li benedisse e a Maria, sua madre, disse: "Ecco, egli è qui per la caduta e la risurrezione di molti in Israele e come segno di contraddizione - e anche a te una spada trafiggerà l'anima -, affinché siano svelati i pensieri di molti cuori".C'era anche una profetessa, Anna, figlia di Fanuèle, della tribù di Aser. Era molto avanzata in età, aveva vissuto con il marito sette anni dopo il suo matrimonio, era poi rimasta vedova e ora aveva ottantaquattro anni. Non si allontanava mai dal tempio, servendo Dio notte e giorno con digiuni e preghiere. Sopraggiunta in quel momento, si mise anche lei a lodare Dio e parlava del bambino a quanti aspettavano la redenzione di Gerusalemme.Quando ebbero adempiuto ogni cosa secondo la legge del Signore, fecero ritorno in Galilea, alla loro città di Nàzaret. Il bambino cresceva e si fortificava, pieno di sapienza, e la grazia di Dio era su di lui.Parola del Signore.
Nel video esploriamo Esodo 17, l'episodio di Massa e Meriba, dove Israele mette alla prova Dio nel deserto. Attraverso l'analisi teologica ed esegetica, distinguiamo tra la fede come pretesa personale, che vacilla quando le aspettative non vengono soddisfatte, e la fede autentica come fiducia, quella di Abramo, che resta salda anche nell'incertezza e nella mancanza. L'episodio diventa così un luogo simbolico di prova, in cui emerge la fragilità della fiducia del popolo nonostante i segni della provvidenza: l'acqua, il pane, la guida. Il video riflette anche sulla crisi di Mosè, stretto tra un popolo insoddisfatto e un Dio che sfugge al controllo umano, rivelando la tensione drammatica tra leadership e fede. Infine, scopriamo come il vero dono di Dio non sia mai solo una risposta al bisogno, ma un invito alla fiducia — un test che trasforma il deserto in un luogo di rivelazione.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bella-prof--4788354/support.
HELLO AND WELCOME BACK TO ANOTHER EPISODE OF MOMENT OF SILENCE!You asked, and we delivered — pink is back, baby! From one person's trash being another person's treasure, to a trip to Baroda for a fashion show (that somehow turned into a protein intake conversation), this episode is packed with peak flopcorn moments of the week. We also get into how a gynaecologist visit can feel more like someone entering your guarded space, but when pregnancy might be knocking, you answer all the questions anyway. Sakshi's first day at work was exciting… until she had no device to work on, which led to an uncontrollable urge to order an iPad via quick commerce. And don't trust celebs who claim their favourite food spot is a random hawker — we know better.Now coming to the main topic of the episode — are romantic comedies here to stay? We dive into whether rom-coms still entice us, while revisiting a few that truly nailed the genre. Plus, we unpack all the dating advice rom-coms have fed us over the years: meet-cutes, love at first sight, beards as different phases of a man's life, and so much more.Also, Sima Taparia has written a book — thoughts?

In questo nuovo episodio torniamo a camminare nel deserto insieme al popolo di Israele, affrontando un tema fondamentale: il cibo, la sopravvivenza e la fede. Carboidrati e proteine, manna e quaglie: cosa si nasconde davvero dietro la dieta dei viandanti biblici?. Oggi mettiamo a confronto due testi paralleli ma profondamente diversi: Esodo 16 e Numeri 11. Se nel libro dell'Esodo la manna è presentata come un dono liturgico e provvidenziale legato al memoriale del sabato, nel libro dei Numeri lo stesso evento assume tinte più oscure. Qui l'abbondanza richiesta dal popolo – l'avidità di carne – si trasforma da benedizione in giudizio e piaga. Nel corso della puntata esploreremo:La difficoltà della libertà: Perché il popolo mormora contro Dio e contro Mosè? Analizziamo come la mancanza di fede non dipenda dall'assenza di prove, ma dalla difficoltà di accettare un Dio che non segue la nostra agenda.Il deserto come l'Eden: Scopriremo il sorprendente legame tra il deserto e il Paradiso terrestre. Entrambi sono il "luogo della prova", dove la relazione di fiducia con il Creatore viene testata.La lettura cristiana: Come si collegano questi eventi alle tentazioni di Gesù? Vedremo come Cristo, il "nuovo Adamo", supera la prova del pane nel deserto, riuscendo dove Israele aveva fallito.Il contesto storico: Capiremo come questi racconti riflettano le sfide della ricostruzione post-esilio, tra la nostalgia della schiavitù e la fatica di costruire un'identità nuova.Un viaggio tra teologia, storia e psicologia sociale, per riscoprire che l'identità del credente si fonda su due pilastri: la memoria e il riconoscimento del dono gratuito.

Ne ebbe compassione, tese la mano, lo toccò e gli disse: "Lo voglio, sii purificato!". E subito, la lebbra scomparve da lui ed egli fu purificato.E, ammonendolo severamente, lo cacciò via subito e gli disse: "Guarda di non dire niente a nessuno; va', invece, a mostrarti al sacerdote e offri per la tua purificazione quello che Mosè ha prescritto, come testimonianza per loro".Ma quello si allontanò e si mise a proclamare e a divulgare il fatto, tanto che Gesù non poteva più entrare pubblicamente in una città, ma rimaneva fuori, in luoghi deserti; e venivano a lui da ogni parte.Parola del Signore.
Last time we spoke about the climax of the battle of Changkufeng. A 7–10 August clash near Changkufeng and Hill 52 saw a brutal, multi-front Soviet push against Japanese positions in the Changkufeng–Hill 52 complex and adjacent areas. The Korea Army and Imperial forces rapidly reinforced with artillery, long-range 15 cm and other pieces, to relieve pressure. By 7–8 August, Soviet assault waves, supported by tanks and aircraft, intensified but Japanese defenses, including engineers, machine-gun fire, and concentrated artillery, prevented a decisive breakthrough at key positions like Noguchi Hill and the Changkufeng spine. By 9–10 August, continued Japanese counterfire, improved artillery neutralization, and renewed defenses kept Hill 52 and Changkufeng in Japanese control, though at heavy cost. The frontline exhaustion and looming strategic concerns prompted calls for intensified replacements and potential diplomatic considerations. It seemed like the battle was coming to an end. #184 The Lake Khasan Truce Welcome to the Fall and Rise of China Podcast, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson.

The casualties were atrocious for both sides, yet they continued to mobilize more forces to the conflict area. While the Russians appeared uninterested in all-out war, they were not rushing to settle the crisis through diplomacy and, at the front, were launching "reckless" counterattacks at inconvenient locations, presumably to occupy positions useful for bargaining. The local Soviet military, having ceded the hills at the outset, must also have been anxious about its prestige. The Kwantung Army's potential threat to the flank undoubtedly made the Russians nervous. Although the leading echelon of the 104th Division did not reach Hunchun until the evening of 13 August, Japanese intelligence heard that the Red Army Headquarters staff at Khabarovsk had detected movements of Kwantung Army elements around 10 August and had been compelled to take countermeasures: they reinforced positions along the eastern and northern Manchurian frontiers, concentrated the air force, ordered move-up preparations by ground forces in the Blagoveshchensk district, and commandeered most of the motor vehicles in the Amur Province. By shifting its main strength to the eastern front, the Kwantung Army exerted, as intended, a silent pressure. The covert objective was to restrain and divert the Russians and to assist Japanese diplomacy, not to provoke war. Nevertheless, an American correspondent who visited the Changkufeng area in mid-August privately reported that the Kwantung Army was massing large numbers of troops near the border and expected further trouble. Toward its weak neighbor in Korea the Kwantung Army rendered every support. Apart from its major demonstration in eastern Manchuria, the Kwantung Army promptly sent whatever reinforcements of artillery, engineers, and other units that Seoul had desired. Being also intimately involved in anti-Soviet military preparations, the Kwantung Army understandably wanted the latest and most authentic information on Russian Army theory and practice. The Changkufeng Incident furnished such a firsthand opportunity, and the professional observers sent from Hsinking were well received at the front. Military classmate ties contributed to the working relationships between the armies. As one division officer put it, the teams from the Kwantung Army came as "friends," not only to study the battlefield by their respective branches of service but also to assist the front-line forces; "the Kwantung Army was increasingly helpful to us in settling the incident." Foreign Minister Ugaki felt that the pressure of troop movements in Manchuria played a major part in the Russians' eventual decision to conclude a cease-fire. From Inada's viewpoint, it had been a "fine and useful demonstration against the Soviet Union." Pinned at Changkufeng, the Russians did not or could not choose to react elsewhere, too. Army General Staff officers believed that clear and consistent operational guidance furnished by Tokyo produced good results, although the fighting had been very hard for the front-line Japanese troops because of the insistence on exclusive defense, the curbs on interference by the Kwantung Army, and the prohibition on the use of aircraft. It had been close, however. Only by conscious efforts at restraint had the small war at Changkufeng been kept from spilling over into neighboring areas. Escalation of combat in early August had caused the Japanese government to try to break the diplomatic impasse while localizing the conflict. On 2 August Premier Konoe assured the Emperor that he intended to leave matters for diplomacy and to suspend military operations as soon as possible, an approach with which the government concurred. The Changkufeng dispute had been accorded priority, preceding overall settlements and the creation of joint commissions to redefine the borders. On the 3rd, after coordinating with the military, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs advised Shigemitsu that the front-line situation had become "extremely critical" and that a quick suspension of fighting action should be proposed. Soviet and Japanese troops should be pulled back to the setup as of 30 July. In the midst of the Changkufeng Incident, the USSR intensified harassing tactics against the last Japanese consulates located within the Soviet Union. Forty-eight hour ultimatums to quit the country were delivered to the consuls at Khabarovsk and Blagoveshchensk on 3 and 4 August, respectively. Although the Japanese government warned that it might retaliate, the Russians were unyielding. The foreign ambassadors, Mamoru Shigemitsu and Maxim Litvinov met on August 4th, whereupon Shigemitsu argued, the best procedure would be to suspend military operations on both sides and to restore the status quo. Litvinov in a long manner explained the stance of the USSR as Shigemitsu put it "the Soviet side had a disposition to cease fighting, provided that conditions were satisfactory." The Russians were stalling at the very time the Red Army was bending every effort to retake Changkufeng. Coordination between the Army, Navy, and Foreign Ministers produced cease-fire conditions which were rushed to the Japanese ambassador on 6 August. Two alternate lines were proposed, to which both armies would pull back. After the creation of a buffer zone, discussions could begin concerning delineation of boundaries in the region of the incident. The Hunchun pact could be the basis for deliberations, demarcation to be effected by joint investigations on the spot in consultation with documents in the possession of Manchukuo and the USSR; the Japanese would serve only as observers. Shigemitsu conferred once more with Litvinov for three and a half hours on 7 August, but no progress was made. Litvinov insisted that a clash could be averted only if Japanese forces pulled However Litvinov's positive reaction to the idea of a demarcation commission was seen as a good sign. On August the 10th, both sides seemed to have reached a similar conclusion that a cease-fire needed to rapidly be implemented. At 11pm that night Litvinov called the embassy, asking for Shigemitus to see him as fast as possible. Shigemitsu arrived around midnight whereupon Litvinov showed him a draft of a final accord: 1. Japanese and Soviet forces shall cease all military activities on 11 August at noon local time. Instructions to that effect are to be issued immediately by the governments of the USSR and Japan. 2. Japanese as well as Soviet troops shall remain on those lines which they occupied at midnight local time on 10 August. 3. For redemarcation of the portion of frontier in dispute, there shall be created a mixed commission of two representatives from the USSR and two representatives from the Japanese-Manchurian side, with an umpire selected by agreement of both parties from among citizens of a third state. 4. The commission for redemarcation shall work on the basis of agreements and maps bearing the signatures of plenipotentiary representatives of Russia and China. Shigemitsu agreed to the inclusion of a Japanese commissioner on the Manchukuoan delegation, but he could not assent to the addition of a neutral umpire. Moscow received the news of the truce with gratification mingled with surprise. Few realized that the USSR had taken the step of appeasing or at least saving face for the Japanese even after Shigemitsu had pleaded for and won a cease-fire. The world was told by the Russians only that specific overtures for cessation of hostilities had originated with the Soviet authorities. In general, it was not difficult to guess why the Russian government, distracted by the European political scene and apprehensive about a two-front war, agreed to a cease-fire at Changkufeng. The slowness of communication across the many miles between Moscow and Tokyo did nothing to alleviate nervousness in the Japanese capital during the night of 10–11 August. Ugaki wrote in his diary that, "after ten days of tension, the struggle between the Japanese and Soviet armies on the USSR–Manchukuo border had reached the decisive brink". Complicating the situation was the fact that, late on 10 August, the president of Domei News Agency conveyed to Konoe a message from one of his Moscow correspondents. Purporting to sum up Shigemitsu's latest outlook, the report stated that success in the negotiations seemed unlikely. The contents of the message were transmitted to Ugaki and Itagaki. Consequently, Konoe and his associates spent a fearful and depressed night. Shigemitsu's own report, sent by telegram, arrived frustratingly slowly. After definite information had been received from Shigemitsu, Harada happily called Kazami Akira, the prime minister's chief secretary, and Konoe himself. "Until the accord was implemented," Kazami had said, "we would have to be on the alert all day today." Konoe and Kazami seemed "a little relaxed anyhow." Inada had finally retired past midnight on 10–11 August, "agreement or no agreement. I must have been dozing from fatigue when the jangle of the phone got me up. It was a message saying that a truce had been concluded the preceding midnight. Just as I had been expecting, I said to myself, but I felt empty inside, as if it were an anticlimax." The call had to have been an unofficial communication, perhaps the latest Domei news, since the records showed that definitive word from the embassy in Moscow did not reach Tokyo until after 10:00. Attache Doi's report to the Army General Staff came at about 11:00. This was extremely late in terms of getting Japanese troops to cease operations at 13:00 Tokyo time (or noon on the spot); a tardy imperial order might undo the Moscow accord. Complicating this matter of split-second timing was the fact that the first official telegram from Shigemitsu referred to unilateral Japanese withdrawal by one kilometer. At the Japanese high command level, there was agitated discussion when initial word of these arrangements arrived. Inada speculated that on 10 August the Russians had staged persistent close-quarter assaults against Changkufeng and seized the southern edge eventually, although repulsed at all other points. Moscow may have agreed to a truce at that midnight because they expected that the crest of Changkufeng would be in their hands by then and that a fait accompli would have been achieved. Some officers argued that the Russian forces were suffering "quite badly and this caused the authorities' agreeability to a cease-fire." Most exasperating, however, was the provision stipulating a one-sided military withdrawal. Admittedly, such action had been under discussion by the Army General Staff itself, particularly after Terada's sobering appeal of 10 August. It was another matter to have a Japanese withdrawal dictated by the USSR while Russian troops did not have to budge. Initial puzzlement and chagrin began to yield to rationalization. The Japanese side seemed to have made a concession in the negotiations, but there must have been significance to the phrase which said, "the line occupied by Japanese forces has been taken into due consideration." Japanese troops had presumably advanced to the edge of the frontier, while Russian soldiers had not come even close. Thus, it must have been necessary to have the Japanese units withdraw first, to fix the boundaries, since it had been the Japanese who had done the greater advancing. One Japanese office remarked "A pull-back was a pull-back, no matter how you looked at things—and we were the ones who had to do it. But the atmosphere in the command had been far from optimistic on 10 August; so we decided that it was unnecessary to complain about this issue and we approved the agreement in general. Both the senior and junior staff levels seemed to be quite relieved." The 11th of August had been an awkward day to conduct liaison between the Foreign Ministry, the Army, and the Throne, since the Emperor was leaving Hayama to visit naval installations in the Yokosuka area and the navy air unit in Chiba from morning. By the time a conclusive report on the cease-fire could be conveyed to the monarch, he was aboard the destroyer Natsugumo at Kisarazu. Naval wireless facilities in Tokyo had to be used to transmit coded messages to Admiral Yonai, the Navy Minister, for delivery to the Emperor. This was done shortly before 14:45 According to Yonai, the Emperor "was very pleased and relieved when I reported to him… about the conclusion of the truce accord." The appropriate Imperial order was approved promptly. But not until 15:00, two hours after cease-fire time at Changkufeng, did word of Imperial sanction reach the high command. Japanese soldiers in the lines recalled nothing special on 11 August. "We didn't hear about the truce till the last minute," said one, "and we had become so inured to enemy artillery we hardly noticed any 'last salute.' From Tokyo, on 11 August, it was reported that the Japanese side had suspended operations promptly at noon, as agreed, but that sporadic bursts of fire had continued to come from the Soviet side. Colonel Grebennik, when asked after the war whether the combat did end at noon, replied petulantly: "Yes, but not quite so. The fighting actually ceased at 12:05." According to him, the tardiness was the Japanese side's fault. The Japanese press told readers that "the cease-fire bugle has sounded—the frontier is cheerful now, 14 days after the shooting began." All was quiet in the area of Changkufeng, where the sounds of firing ceased at noon "as if erased." The most intense period of stillness lasted only a few minutes and was followed by the excited chattering of soldiers, audible on both sides. Korea Army Headquarters spoke of the "lifting of dark clouds [and] return of the rays of peace." In Hongui, a Japanese combat officer told a Japanese correspondent: "Suddenly we noticed the insects making noise; the soldiers were delighted. Once the fighting stopped, Japanese national flags were hoisted here and there along our front. … After the Russians observed what we had done, they broke out red flags also, at various points in their trenches." Some Japanese soldiers were given cookies by Soviet medical corpsmen. At Hill 52, an infantryman remembered, the Japanese and the Russians were facing each other, 50 meters apart, that afternoon. "We just lay there and stared at each other for two hours, waiting grimly. But it was well past cease-fire now, and those same Russians finally started to wave at us. Later that day, when Soviet troops came to salvage their KO'd tanks, we 'chatted' in sign language." After the cease-fire, Ichimoto, whose battalion had seen the most difficult fighting, stuck his head above the trench and waved hello to some Soviet officers. "They waved back. It gave me an odd sensation, for during the furious struggle I had considered them to be barbarians. Now I was surprised to see that they were civilized after all!" A rifleman at Changkufeng remembered swapping watches with an unarmed Russian across the peak. The Japanese front-line troops stayed in their positions confronting the Russians and conducted preparations for further combat while cleaning up the battlefield. Soviet troops also remained deployed as of the time of the cease-fire and vigorously carried out their own construction. The day after the cease-fire went into effect, Suetaka escorted an American reporter to the front. At Changkufeng: "carpenters were making wooden receptacles for the ashes of the Japanese dead. Funeral pyres still were smoldering. . . . From our vantage point the lieutenant general pointed out long lines of Soviet trucks coming up in clouds of dust [which] apparently were made deliberately in an effort to conceal the trucks' movements, [probably designed] to haul supplies from the front. Soviet boats were pushing across [Khasan] . . . and Soviet soldiers were towing smashed tanks back from no-man'sland. On the Japanese side there was a pronounced holiday spirit. Soldiers, emerging from dugouts, were drying white undershirts on near-by brush and bathing in the Tumen River. The soldiers were laughing heartily. A few were trying to ride a Korean donkey near Changkufeng's scarred slope. The general pointed out three Soviet tanks behind the Japanese advance lines east of Changkufeng. He said the Russians had hauled back seventy others [on the night of 11 August]. . . . The writer was shown a barbed wire fence immediately behind a wrecked village on the west slope of Changkufeng which the general said the Soviet troops built at the beginning of the fighting. Possiet Bay also was pointed out, clearly visible across the swamp." Soviet losses for what became known as the battle of Lake Khasan for the Russians and the Changkufeng incident for the Japanese, totaled 792 killed or missing and 3,279 wounded or sick, according to Soviet records. The Japanese claimed to have destroyed or immobilized 96 enemy tanks and 30 guns. Soviet armored losses were significant, with dozens of tanks knocked out or destroyed and hundreds of "tank troops" becoming casualties. Japanese casualties, as revealed by secret Army General Staff statistics, were 1,439 casualties, 526 killed or missing, 913 wounded; the Soviets claimed Japanese losses of 3,100, with 600 killed and 2,500 wounded. The Soviets concluded that these losses were due in part to poor communications infrastructure and roads, as well as the loss of unit coherence caused by weak organization, headquarters, commanders, and a lack of combat-support units. The faults in the Soviet army and leadership at Khasan were blamed on the incompetence of Blyukher. In addition to leading the troops into action at Khasan, Blyukher was also supposed to oversee the trans-Baikal Military District's and the Far Eastern fronts' move to combat readiness, using an administrative apparatus that delivered army group, army, and corps-level instructions to the 40th Rifle Division by accident. On 22 October, he was arrested by the NKVD and is thought to have been tortured to death. At 15:35 on 11 August, in the Hill 52 sector, high-ranking military delegates bearing a white flag emerged from the Soviet lines and proceeded to Akahage Hill, about 100 meters from the Japanese positions. Cho, as right sector chief, was notified. He sent three lieutenants to converse with the Russians; they learned that the Soviets wanted the Japanese to designate a time and place for a conference. This word was conveyed to Suetaka, who had already dispatched Lieutenant Kozuki to the heights east of Shachaofeng to contact the Russians. Around 4:20, the commander canceled Kozuki's mission and instructed Cho to reply that the delegation ought to convene near the peak of Changkufeng at 18:00 Cho set out promptly with several subordinates; they reached the Changkufeng crest a little before 6. The Russians then said they wanted to meet the Japanese near the Crestline southeast of Changkufeng, the excuse being that the peak was too far for them to go and that they could not arrive by the designated time. Cho took his team to the location requested by the Russians. There, the Japanese found 13 Soviet soldiers and a heavy machine gun on guard, but the Russian delegates had not arrived, although it was 6:18. The irked Japanese clocked a further delay of two minutes before the Russian truce chief, Gen. Grigory M. Shtern, rode up on horseback with a party of eight. Both delegations saluted, the chiefs and team members identified themselves, and all shook hands. The Soviet team was made up of Corps General 3rd rank Shtern, 38, chief of staff, Far East area army; Brigade Commissar Semenovsky political major general, 37 or 38; Colonel Fedotev, 42; and Major Wabilev, about 30. Interpreting for the Russians was Alexei Kim. In Colonel Cho's opinion, "It was always necessary to take the initiative in dealing with the Soviets. So, even in such matters as shaking hands or conversing, he always did things first." During the exchange of greetings, Cho teased Shtern about his bandaged forehead. "A Japanese artillery shell got you, didn't it?" he asked. But Cho began formal discussions on a more dignified note: "Cho: It is very much to be regretted that the Japanese and Soviet armies had to get involved in combat around Changkufeng. Nevertheless, I laud the consummation of the Moscow accord on the part of both governments. And, I must say, your forces were quite brave and patriotic. Shtern: I agree with you. The Japanese Army, too, was courageous and strong." Negotiations would go on at the local level and diplomatic level for many days. In Tokyo, on the morning of 13 August, Ugaki had gone to the Meiji shrine to "report" on the cease-fire and to express his gratitude. At 10:00, when received in Imperial audience, he discussed the Changkufeng Incident. "I humbly regret to have troubled Your Majesty so unduly in connection with an unimportant affair on the Soviet-Manchurian frontier" at a time when the monarch was confronted by grave national problems. A long and winding road lay ahead before the incident as a whole was settled, but a good start had been made and "we are going to be even more careful in handling matters, although the Soviet regime consists of devious, vicious scoundrels." Recognition of the Japanese Army's performance was accorded by the highest authorities in the homeland. As soon as the fighting ceased, Kan'in transmitted a message of appreciation. The day after the cease-fire, the command in North Korea issued a generous communique: "We pay homage to the Japanese for defending themselves against 100 planes, 200 tanks, and 60 pieces of heavy artillery. Our admiration for the bravery of both armies is of the highest." At 14:00 on the 15th, Kan'in was received in audience and reported on the settlement of the crisis. Said the Emperor: "We are gratified by the fact that, during this incident at Changkufeng, Our officers and men achieved their mission fully and manifested prudence and forbearance while confronting difficult circumstances with small forces. Our profound condolences to the casualties. Convey this message to the officers and men." A wire was dispatched promptly to Nakamura. With Imperial use of the wording "Changkufeng Incident," the nomenclature for the affair was fixed in Japan. When the cabinet met on 16 August, the decision was reached officially. After the Changkufeng affair, Japanese officers claimed that the Soviets had dispatched tactical experts "to ascertain why their elite Far Eastern forces had not been able to achieve satisfactory results. They realize the urgency of this investigation in preparation for any great war." Specifically, the AGS heard that on the day of the cease-fire, Blyukher had sent an investigative team of commissars under Romanovsky to the scene. Japanese experts on the USSR speculated that the experience at Changkufeng ought indeed to have impressed the Red Army: "Our forces did seize the hill and hold it. After comparing the strengths involved ... the Russians may well have had to modify their estimates." According to one Japanese commentator, improvements in political leadership were judged imperative by the USSR, gainsaying claims that the Soviet Army had been strengthened through the purge of alleged Japanese tools. Soviet authorities would conclude "As a test of doctrine, the fighting had confirmed the correctness of the basic principles embodied in the 1936 Field Service Regulations." The Soviet infantry had paid dearly for this, as well as for the deficiencies in tactical training. Defense Commissar Voroshilov admitted, "We were not sufficiently quick in our tactics, and particularly in joint operations in dealing the enemy a concentrated blow." In the view of historian Mackintosh: "The Soviet success at Lake Khasan was bought at the cost of heavy casualties and exposed serious defects in the mobilization machinery and the training of troops. There can be little doubt that these factors checked to some extent the Soviet Government's overoptimistic estimate of its own military strength and cast doubt on the effectiveness of its policy of expansion in all fields of military organization". Writing a year and a half after Changkufeng, an Mainichi reporter observed that the greatest harvest from the incident was tangible Japanese experience in determining the fighting strength of the Russians. Purchased with blood, this knowledge could provide valuable evidence for future combat operations. It was a question whether Changkufeng really possessed such strategic significance as was claimed for it, but the Soviet policy of bluff could be interpreted as substantiating the weakness of the defenses of Vladivostok. "The Russians used all kinds of new weapons at Changkufeng and tipped their whole hand. But although mechanization of the Red Army had attained high levels with respect to quantity, their weaknesses in technique and quality were laid bare." Imaoka observed that since the Changkufeng Incident marked the first time that the Japanese and Soviet armies engaged each other in combat involving large strategic elements, divisional and above, Russian fighting strength was studied with keen interest. The Japanese did not rate the capacity of the officers or Soviet quality, in general, as especially high. Still, the Russians did possess quantitative abundance, and Japanese losses had been heavy because the enemy had fired masses of ammunition against fixed targets. Suetaka seemed to have comprehended the scope of tangible Soviet strength in equipment and materiel, as shown by his comment: "I felt deeply that if the gap in manpower went beyond limits, it would be inevitable for our casualties to increase tremendously; this might even cause us danger in specific local areas." Few Japanese officers saw anything new in Soviet tactical methods, although considerations of mass were ever-present. Not only intelligence experts but the whole army worked on ways of coping with Soviet forces that would have the numerical advantage by 3:1. Most awesome was the "fantastic abundance" of hostile materiel, although the Russians could not deploy to surround the Japanese because of the geography. An AGS expert on the USSR summed it up: "We learned that Soviet strength was up to expectations, whereas Japanese arms and equipment had to be improved and reinforced." Worded in a multiplicity of ways, the Japanese conclusion was that patient imperial forces had won a great victory by defending the contested border with flesh vs. steel and by limiting the Changkufeng Incident, till the end, against enemy hordes supported exclusively by planes and tanks. Japanese infantrymen admit that the combat soldiers did not savor their disadvantages. "All our materiel was inferior in quality and particularly in quantity. We had the impression that whereas we relied on muscle power, the enemy used engines. This rendered our fighting particularly hard, but we had full confidence in our spiritual strength [i.e., superiority]." Nevertheless, the Japanese mode of tactical operation, asserted Iwasaki, the Korea Army senior staff officer, was "the worst possible: fighting with hands tied." This meant that the Russians could fight "to their hearts' content," committing tanks and planes, and striking from all directions. A front-line infantry commander commented: "One's troops ought to be provided meaningful reasons for fighting and for dying happily. It is cruel to ask officers and men to meet masses of steel and to shed their blood without visible cause, and apparently because of inadequate combat preparations." The cease-fire agreement was concluded "at just the right time," General Morimoto admitted. A secret report prepared by AGS analysts sheds light on the larger question of what the army thought it had learned about itself and the Soviet enemy: "In studying Changkufeng, one ought to bear a number of cautions in mind: (1) The incident broke out when we were concentrating on the holy war against China; severe limitations on combat operations were imposed by the necessity to adhere to a policy of nonenlargement. (2) Apparently, the enemy also adopted a policy of localization while continuously attempting to recapture the high ground in the Changkufeng area. (3) Our forces employed units which were on Phase-1 alert from beginning to end; in terms of quality, the personnel were excellent—mainly active-duty types, from key men down. But our numbers were far inferior, and our organization and equipment were not of the best. In addition, we committed no planes or tanks, whereas the enemy used plenty. (4) The 19th Division was thorough, rigorous, and realistic in its combat training prior to the engagement. (5) Battlefield terrain seriously limited the enemy's attacks, especially tank action. But while the Tumen restricted assaults against our flanks and rear, it hampered our own services of supply, notably the provision of position construction materials." The Japanese learned few or erroneous lessons from the Changkufeng affair; the Kwantung Army, for example, was convinced that everything had been handled badly in 1938 by the Korea Army and the high command. When a dispute arose in 1939 at Nomonhan on another border lying between Outer Mongolia and Manchukuo, the staff in Hsinking fostered escalating measures. The USSR, however, learned in 1937 and 1938 that the Japanese Army seemed to respect only force.

The Changkufeng incident or battle of Lake Khasan clash saw a fierce Soviet push against Japanese positions around Changkufeng and Hill 52. The cease-fire ended the incident, but not the conflict. Despite the brutal lessons learned by both sides, a much larger conflict would explode the next year that would alter both nations throughout WW2.
In this episode, Mickey sits down with CPT Taylor Scroggins—company commander (Bravo 1108) and member of the Integrated Primary Prevention Workforce (IPPW). They talk ASVAB origin stories, choosing an MOS with intention, what ROTC and Advanced Camp really look like, and how being proactive (instead of reactive) can change everything—from range safety to career progression to unit readiness. What you'll hear in this episode A range-day story that shows what “real leadership” looks like when safety standards matter CPT Scroggins' ASVAB experience: scoring a 61, not studying, and getting recruited straight out of JROTC How she chose 31B (Military Police): “Show me the full list of jobs I qualify for” MP training realities (yes—spray and taser) and what Guard-life as an MP actually felt like ROTC explained: SMP (Simultaneous Membership Program), skipping early years, and the real cadence of classes + labs Advanced Camp at Fort Knox: what happens, what people struggle with, and how ROTC programs can set cadets up to fail Commissioning traditions (first salute) and why her grandfather was an unforgettable part of her story Leadership fast-track: going straight to XO because of officer shortages—and doing the work even when it's “unrated” Being sent to an FSC (Forward Support Company) and still getting stuck as “acting XO” Deployment to Germany supporting the mission training Ukrainians (CPT Scroggins in SPO / logistics support) The career “binder” strategy: KD positions, broadening assignments, promotion points, and having a plan A wild moment: getting offered a TAC job… and walking out as the new S4 instead MDMP under pressure: solving a real statewide readiness problem with a tiny, brand-new staff IPPW explained: using D-IoX survey data to identify risk/protective factors and intervene before issues escalate Why intentionality keeps showing up in her story—from MOS selection to command Key takeaways Don't let someone else pick your career for you—start with the full list, then decide.

Who's more important? The operators on the ground or the aviators in the sky? It's hard to seize the objective without boots on the ground; but if you can't get to the objective in the first place, there's no mission at all.The reality is that operators need aviators and aviators need operators. Green Berets and the pilots of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment share bonds that transcend their MOS and their mobility platform. Live from the 2nd Annual Stars and Stripes Classic, I sat down with Chairman of the Green Beret Foundation retired Lieutenant General Ken Tovo and Chief Warrant Officer Sean McCormick to talk about what it takes to build true interoperability between air and ground units, and why there is no such term as “more important.”Chief McCormick served as a lead pilot in the 160th SOAR after a career in 75th Ranger Regiment; he also served as General Tovo's pilot while the General was the USASOC Commander. Their partnership and friendship provides a rare perspective on the leadership, trust, and relentless commitment that define Special Operations. Together, they shared how those experiences shaped their understanding of teamwork, mission focus, and the ability to take on any challenge. They also share an unknown secret about GBF's upcoming POW/MIA recovery missions with Project Recover.The Stars and Stripes Classic is more than a lacrosse game. It's a moment to honor the warriors who always step forward, the families who support them, and the community that preserves their legacy through the Green Beret and Navy SEAL Foundations. Special thanks to the Premier Lacrosse League for hosting another thrilling game.

Welcome to 2026 — where resolutions are loud, motivation lasts 24 hours, and reality hits before the cheese Maggi finishes boiling.In this episode of Moment of Silence Podcast, we give you a first look at the NEW MOS Studio and ask the uncomfortable question: are we actually better versions of ourselves this year, or just rebranded? We talk about New Year resolutions that didn't even survive Jan 1, healthy eating plans sabotaged by chips, food delivery apps we swore we'd boycott (but didn't), and the chaos of trying to “do better” without changing habits. Things escalate quickly — from an unexpected encounter with Radhika Merchant, to entering the kitchen with good intentions and exiting with near-death trauma. We tick off bucket-list moments, unpack the fear and freedom of solo travel, and relive losing money in euros on our Amsterdam trip (which hurt more than expected). From Indian music feeling oddly comforting abroad, to nightfall meaning two very different things (wink wink), to questionable massage parlours that felt less relaxing and more life-threatening. We also dive into red-alert areas, suggesting a paywall option, and moments that made us question why Shankar Mahadevan sings every song like it's cardio. Add movie reviews- Dhurandar, personal losses, cultural shocks and vision boards for 2026.Basically: new year, new studio, same us — just louder, wiser (for sure), and still figuring it out.A big thank you to Orange Tree for sponsoring the lovely, comfortable furniture that elevates the space. https://www.instagram.com/orangetreehomes?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==Chaptering:00:00 – MOS enters 2026 with opinions00:37 – Welcome to the MOS Studio era01:49 – New Year resolutions02:34 – Casual day, casually met Radhika Merchant 06:09 – Almost died… in our own kitchen08:07 – We're NOT boycotting food delivery, relax09:29 – Amsterdam chaos + solo trip thoughts10:49 – Nightfall means VERY different things14:19 – Foot massage vs body massage: Amsterdam edition17:01 – The dark side of a Haribo cookie20:45 – Wallet pinched, trip traumatised23:11 – Our Amsterdam itinerary (learn from our mistakes)25:26 – Found the saddest place on earth28:06 – Bhajans & aarti… but make it modern30:47 – Dhurandhar review (honest & unhinged)37:37 – Book club is officially happening 38:15 – Vision boards for 2026 (scam or slay?)43:49 – Unsolicited advice for the mommies47:27 – AI in 2026: helpful or terrifying?Also don't forget to visit our website- https://mos-pod.com/Brutally Honest Creators - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHkcqImp8gcbZHzn1secwSYYKG8dds437Comedians Unfiltered- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHkcqImp8gcabWOmtiYQUUXGU4ptrq9HBFollow MoS on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/momentofsil...Credits:Naina Bhan - Co-host and certified overthinkerhttps://www.instagram.com/nainabee?ig...Sakshi Shivdasani - Co-host, balancing out Naina's overthinking with a healthy dose of not thinkinghttps://www.instagram.com/sakshishivd...Senior Producer- Amruta P. www.linkedin.com/in/amruta-bandivdekar-01879925Produced by Handmade - Our personal cheering squad https://www.instagram.com/thehandmade...Creative direction by Tinkre, Keeper of MoS' signature “Pookie” energy Natascha Mehrahttps://www.instagram.com/tinkre.in/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/natascha.zip/?hl=en Researched by our very own curiosity engineer - Aashna Sharma https://www.linkedin.com/in/aashna-sharma-913146179Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this podcast are for entertaining purposes only and do not necessarily reflect those of the hosts, the production team, or affiliated brand.

Egli era, in principio, presso Dio: tutto è stato fatto per mezzo di lui e senza di lui nulla è stato fatto di ciò che esiste. In lui era la vita e la vita era la luce degli uomini; la luce splende nelle tenebre e le tenebre non l'hanno vinta.Venne un uomo mandato da Dio: il suo nome era Giovanni. Egli venne come testimone per dare testimonianza alla luce, perché tutti credessero per mezzo di lui. Non era lui la luce, ma doveva dare testimonianza alla luce.Veniva nel mondo la luce vera, quella che illumina ogni uomo. Era nel mondo e il mondo è stato fatto per mezzo di lui; eppure il mondo non lo ha riconosciuto. Venne fra i suoi, e i suoi non lo hanno accolto. A quanti però lo hanno accolto ha dato potere di diventare figli di Dio: a quelli che credono nel suo nome, i quali, non da sangue né da volere di carne né da volere di uomo, ma da Dio sono stati generati.E il Verbo si fece carne e venne ad abitare in mezzo a noi; e noi abbiamo contemplato la sua gloria, gloria come del Figlio unigenito che viene dal Padre, pieno di grazia e di verità. Giovanni gli dà testimonianza e proclama: «Era di lui che io dissi: Colui che viene dopo di me è avanti a me, perché era prima di me». Dalla sua pienezza noi tutti abbiamo ricevuto: grazia su grazia. Perché la Legge fu data per mezzo di Mosè, la grazia e la verità vennero per mezzo di Gesù Cristo.Dio, nessuno lo ha mai visto: il Figlio unigenito, che è Dio ed è nel seno del Padre, è lui che lo ha rivelato.Parola del Signore.

Lo Spirito Santo gli aveva preannunciato che non avrebbe visto la morte senza prima aver veduto il Cristo del Signore. Mosso dallo Spirito, si recò al tempio e, mentre i genitori vi portavano il bambino Gesù per fare ciò che la Legge prescriveva a suo riguardo, anch'egli lo accolse tra le braccia e benedisse Dio, dicendo:"Ora puoi lasciare, o Signore, che il tuo servovada in pace, secondo la tua parola,perché i miei occhi hanno visto la tua salvezza,preparata da te davanti a tutti i popoli:luce per rivelarti alle gentie gloria del tuo popolo, Israele".Il padre e la madre di Gesù si stupivano delle cose che si dicevano di lui.

Study Guide There is a dispute between Rabbi Nechemia and Rabbi Yehuda and Rabbi Shimon regarding the reason Aaron burned the sin‑offering goat on the eighth day of the inauguration (miluim). Rabbi Nehemiah holds that the reason was aninut (the status of a mourner on the day of death), whereas Rabbi Shimon and Rabbi Yehuda argue that the goat was burned because it had become impure. They raise three objections to Rabbi Nechemia's position - how can these objections be resolved, and how does each of them interpret the verses in the passage? When did Pinchas become a kohen? According to Rav, Moshe served as the kohen gadol. The Gemara raises objections to his statement.

We Like Shooting Episode 640 This episode of We Like Shooting is brought to you by: Midwest Industries, Die Free Co., Medical Gear Outfitters, Mitchell Defense, Rost Martin, and Swampfox Optics Welcome to the We Like Shooting Show, episode 640! Our cast tonight is Jeremy Pozderac, Savage1r, Jon Patton, and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show! - Gear Chat Nick - KRG Bravo Unplugged KRG Bravo Shawn - GLOCK Unveils Ergonomically Enhanced Generation 6 Models ## Key Points Summary Intro This summary captures the main takeaways from the Glock Gen 6 launch coverage featuring John from the Warrior Poet Society. The discussion centers on design changes, practical improvements, and shooting impressions, with notes on market timing and pricing. Sponsorships were not part of the core content. Center Key design changes and their practical impact - Grip and texture: The new texture sits between Gen 4 and RTF2; two backstraps including a palm swell are provided. The texture extends higher on both sides for a more secure hold, especially in hot conditions. - Ergonomics: Deeper trigger guard undercut reduces the “Glock knuckle” issue; the grip surface is larger, improving surface area for those with bigger hands; the grip shape swells in the midsection for a more natural wrap. - Controls: Deeper slide serrations, especially on top, enhance manipulation from either end of the slide. The ambidextrous slide release remains, and the pistol uses a single recoil spring (as in earlier generations) while retaining some material from the B-series. - Magwell and contour: The magwell is more flared; the overall contour resembles a topographic map, broadening the hand placement area and increasing leverage for a stronger grip. - Gas pedals and holster compatibility: Gas pedals are built into the frame on both sides with material reduced to protect compatibility with Gen 5 holsters; the goal is a functional improvement without forcing new holsters. - Optics and plates: The plate system is not MOS; it uses a polymer insert that sits lower on the slide and acts like a crush washer under tension. Footprints include Delta Point and RMR; optic-ready configuration remains, with some models rumored to feature polymer sights. - Sights and optics readiness: The factory setup is optics-ready, with some early photos showing polymer sight options. - Barrel and reliability: The Marksman barrel remains, but the extractor housing has been redesigned to be removable for easier maintenance and to reduce installation errors. - Handling and feel: The grip bite is strong but not overly tacky, enabling fast, controlled manipulations without the gun sticking to the hand. Models, availability, and pricing - US launch models: Gen 617 (with Glock 47 form factor), 19-length slide paired to a full-size grip (G45-like); overseas, Glock 49 appears as a variant. - Optics-ready configuration: All examples are MOS-ready or compatible, with plates included for common footprints. - Pricing and timing: MSRP is anticipated around $750; production units were slated to begin arriving in January, with possible earlier availability as information evolves. - Accessories and maintenance: An updated extractor housing system is highlighted as simplifying field maintenance and reducing failure risks due to improper screw length. User experience and feedback - Hand feel: The curved, swollen midsection improves leverage and comfort; the grip texture provides secure grip without excessive tackiness, avoiding slip during rapid manipulation. - Shooting impressions: A large, controlled sampling (nine pistols and thousands of rounds) yielded consistent ejection and reliable cycling during demonstrations; full independent testing will further validate reliability. - Community notes: Gen 5 users worried about slide-lock issues may benefit from deeper cuts and reinforced stops; modular grip options were not part of the initial rollout, though patent activity suggests ongoing development. Outro Takeaway: Gen 6 Glock delivers meaningful ergonomic and grip improvements, while maintaining optics readiness and reliability expectations. The US market rollout is aimed for January with a target MSRP near $750; overseas options include Glock 49. Next steps include comprehensive independent testing, longer-term reliability data, and broader real-world reviews. Stay tuned for updates, and consider price-alert subscriptions for stock and accessory availability.

The item did not function as advertised, and there is no evidence Hoover owned, sold, or manufactured machine guns or auto key cards.,- **Arrest and charge**: Despite the nonfunctional etching and absence of direct ownership or manufacturing activity, Hoover was arrested and charged with trafficking machine guns. The case connected him to Christopher Justin Irvin, the creator of the auto key card.,- **Sentencing dynamics**: The pre-sentencing report highlighted Hoover's clean criminal record and his role as the family's primary breadwinner, presenting a favorable background for leniency. Yet, prosecutors sought the maximum sentence, arguing aggressive measures despite the limited direct involvement in weapon manufacture or sales.,- **Contested assertions**: The government asserted extreme accusations, including a claim that Hoover married to prevent her testimony, despite Hoover and his wife sharing multiple children. These assertions drew skepticism and counter-arguments during proceedings and appellate discussions.,- **Gag order controversy**: The government attempted to impose gag orders on journalists covering the case. Those efforts were challenged and ultimately overturned, favoring press freedom and coverage of the proceedings.,- **Appeals process**: Hoover and Irvin both appealed their convictions to the Eleventh Circuit. The Eleventh Circuit heard the appeal in September, but no published decision had been issued at the time of reporting. The appellate discussion centers on evidentiary standards, the government's interpretation of the auto key card's legal status, and potential misapplications of trafficking statutes given the novelty item's nonfunctional nature.,- **Current status**: Hoover has been released from federal prison into a halfway house to serve the remainder of his sentence, effectively transitioning from confinement to supervised community-based placement. He is not at home, but he is no longer in a traditional prison setting. The case remains active on appeal, with the circuit court's decision pending.,- **Context and implications**: The broader implications touch on how prosecutors frame “trafficking” related to nonfunctional or novelty items, the evidentiary boundaries for associating creators with distributors, and the practical impact on families and communities tied to defendants in high-profile cases.,- **Public calls to action**: Viewers and supporters are encouraged to engage with ongoing legal debates, follow the Eleventh Circuit decision when released, and participate in related community discussions.
