With the imminent publication of the new government's first Strategic Defence Review this article throws out a challenge. Can we make the first cheap British Army division of the modern period? Can we afford not to? The 'world-beating' delusion Britain has a 'world-beating' epidemic. It would be funny if we were not paying such a high cost for this delusion. Who started it may be debated. That it has become an empty boast is indisputable. The graph below shows the frequency of use of the phrase in Parliament. It has only got worse. How is Britain world-beating? Our social statistics certainly attract attention: 40% of adults pay no income tax, because their annual income does not exceed the £12,570 personal allowance threshold; One third of 35-45 year olds in England now rents (it was one in ten at the beginning of the century), and four in every ten of the private renters is receiving housing benefit (or they would be on the street); By the time Universal Credit is fully rolled out, one in four working age households will be receiving it; Almost one fifth of Britain's school children, apparently, have special educational needs; At the other end of the scale, Britain's graduates now collectively owe around £240 billion in student loans; Over one million16-24 years olds are neither in education, employment nor training (the NEETs), the main reason cited is 'mental health', remedied by a Personal Independence Payment (PIP) (over 3.3 million Britons in England and Wales were claiming a PIP last year). And so we could go on. How the British Army is 'world-beating' also raises questions. Marlborough's Grand Alliance army at the beginning of the 18th century was bigger. Cromwell had more cavalry regiments. The country that invented the tank can today deploy and sustain one tank regiment (plainly, there must be a reserve or you would be unable to rotate troops). The British Army is effectively air defenceless. In one of the most painful sagas of many in recent times, the Army will finally be receiving a new armoured personnel carrier, 20 years late, and with no weapon beyond a machinegun. And personnel statistics, perhaps reflecting wider society, do not make happy reading. Just five years ago, around 4,500 service personnel brought claims against the MOD. Today the number has jumped to almost 7,000 - or roughly, one in every 17th serviceman or woman on a parade square is making a claim against the MOD. Is serving in the (smaller) non-operational Army really so dangerous? Has the MOD become more negligent in the last five years? We can't go on like this. The first thing we must do is face reality and drop the 'world-beating' delusion. Good, better, best In the early 1960s, Defence Secretary Robert McNamara - America's most talented holder of the post in the second half of the 20th century - coined the phrase 'Good, better, best', in an interview with LIFE magazine. The Ford 'whizz kid' ('human IBM machine' was his other nickname) had been recruited by Kennedy to reform the bloated Department of Defence. He did, against some opposition. 'Good, better, best' referred to defence kit. The majority of defence kit, McNamara argued, just needs to be good. A small proportion needs to be better. And the smallest proportion needs to be 'the best'. The reason was cost. If each of the services proposed the best kit, every time, the defence budget would be bankrupted. Who knows what McNamara would make of Washington's trillion dollar defence budget today. His wisdom is certainly missed. Or cheap is good enough Or, perhaps, we could shorten McNamara's dictum and simply state cheap is good enough, most of the time. We were good at cheap. It was the foundation for what today would be called 'success stories'. The Land Rover story began in 1947 with Rover responding to a War Department requirement for a cheap, jeep-like, utility vehicle. Millions have since rolled off the production line. In contrast, a recently procured patrol vehicle (this auth...

On the program today, Joe Beamer, filling in for Bauerle talks Mark Poloncarz' town hall with Erie County Legislator Lindsay Lorigo, some of the heated political rhetoric coming from the left, NEETs, that is, Gen Z'ers who are not currently in education, employed, or training, and the Dollar Store. Do you shop at the Dollar Store? What are some items you would or would not get from the Dollar Store?
Bruce and Gaydos try to understand why so many Gen-Zers are labeled as NEETs: no longer in education, employment or training.
Political commentator Mike Indian discusses the fact that a fifth of UK adults are still not looking for work, what used to be called NEETS. The Government has to focus on getting as many people as it can into work sustainably, laying the groundwork for what it will be judged for at the next election. Mike believes that its communication strategy has improved massively. Starmer has come into his own on the international stage, arguably moving into the space at the top of Europe while the US is playing silly buggers with foreign policy. While it will take time to ramp up Europe's defence capability, governments have to think the unthinkable. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Patrick engages in a heartfelt and eye-opening conversation with a millennial listener named Dominic. Dominic courageously shares his journey from being a meth addict with a troubled past to finding hope and recovery through faith. He recounts his early struggles with addiction, the impact on his family relationships, and the challenges of regaining a connection with his daughter. Dominic offers raw insights into the realities of drug addiction, the false allure of a life of crime, and the power of faith and perseverance. Patrick and Dominic discuss the importance of not enabling loved ones, the harsh lessons learned from a life off-track, and the role that Relevant Radio plays in Dominic's path to sobriety. Audio: Heated exchange between a British TV anchor and her non-binary guest Rick - How much water is needed for a valid Baptism? Gen Z are increasingly becoming NEETs by choice—not in employment, education, or training Dominic - I am a millennial. I used to have the fear of not making it in life. I realized that in order to make enough money for a family now days you need to work more than 40 hours a week. Olivia - I think there is a spiritual warfare that is happening to the younger generation via technology and porn.
Le mentorat est une forme de coaching dispensé par une personne expérimentée, le mentor, à un partenaire inexpérimenté, le mentee. Mais c'est surtout une réponse humaine et efficace à une série de défis sociétaux urgents et qui s'aligne parfaitement sur les priorités politiques actuelles des gouvernements belges visant une augmentation nette du taux d'emploi ; notamment pour les citoyens d'origine non-UE, les NEETS et les chômeurs de longue durée. Le mentorat offre en outre, une meilleure gestion des fins de carrière des travailleurs seniors tout en garantissant la cohésion sociale. On en parle avec Aurélie Deherve de Team4Job, Pauline Anciaux pour DUO for a JOB, Anne (Mentor) et Marie (Mentee) et Christophe Paris du Collectif Mentorat.

Somehow, we limit ourselves to only five strips this episode. Seems impossible, but we actually did it. Brooke (Dillman) found a short run on one topic that, while only five-strips in length, carried all the fury-inducing content of a dozen or more ordinary strips. The journey begins with Ginger (Xiulan's friend whom we met at Xiulan's wedding to Hugh) and Gerald (the guy from the wedding she's now apparently involved with), who is apparently her boss. She seduces him on his own desk and Xiulan walks in on them, informing them that all of the people in the building next door are watching them with binoculars. Neither of them has so much as unbuttoned one button, so they're as covered up as can be, but somehow this behavior is enough to encourage dozens of people to get their binoculars out of their desks (naturally, I suppose?) so they can watch them. Everything gets kicked up a notch when Edda and Amos try to introduce Fleurrie and Sven to Xiulan and Hugh. The simple introduction of couples results immediately in Fleurrie and Xiulan simultaneously sticking their tongues out at each other. Fleurrie adds, while she does so, "Mine's bigger," referring obviously to the size of her husband. Sven then asks Fleurrie about what he thought he heard her say, which was "mine's's bigger," which of course makes no sense and no one would ever say. Fleurrie assures him it was only a typo and the editor caught it. Sven is stunned to discover they have an editor (as are we), so stunned in fact that his eyes point in two different directions. Xiulan then sends a question to Uncle Ethel (Thorax), asking for clarification the apostrophe's in the word "mine's's" which she claims to have heard used recently. But of course no one said "mine's's" around her at all. She types her question to Uncle Ethel on her computer and he responds immediately from his manual typewriter, sending back a single character, which is either a comma or an apostrophe. Neither would work as a punchline, of course, and neither really makes any sense. But that's par for the course in a run of strips where two people talk about a contraction that literally no one said. I mean, what the fuck?

With an increase of 8.1% in the nation's unemployment rate, there are now at least 82,000 young New Zealanders, aged between 15 and 24 years, who are currently unemployed, not in education or in training. These individuals are grouped into a category known as NEETs. The national unemployment rate is the highest it has been since the impact of COVID 19 in mid 2021 and it is expected to increase beyond 5% by next year. Rachel spoke to Social Development and Employment Minister Louise Upston about the current measures and future plans the government has to slow down the increasing rates of NEETs.

On this episode I chat with director Ingvar Kenne about his haunting film The Land, which screened in 2022 at the Sydney Underground Film Festival and Europe's Snowdance Film Festival where Ingvar won the Best Direction Award. The Land follows Jeremy, played by Steve Rodgers, and Neets, played by Anna Lise Philips, a couple who have a life that many would envy. They have a three-bedroom house, they have a busy family, and they've been married for fourteen years. They also have a remote property in the middle of nowhere which Jeremy visits with his distant friend Simon, played by Cameron Stewart, who returns after a long sojourn overseas. His returns sets Neets on edge as Simon seeks to atone for something that happened long ago. As they head out to 'the land', Neets is left with the children, who she swiftly leaves with her mother - who she appears to have a fractious relationship with - so she can spend some time by herself. Yet, it's out on 'the land' that Jeremy and Simon's friendship is both fortified and tested as they unsettle aspects of the past that disrupts who they are as people. Performances across the board are exemplary, with Steve and Cameron building off their real-life friendship to portray a friendship that has been tested by distance and time, even though the echoes of it continue to resonate. For Anna Lise Philips, the moments of solitude where she's finally able to relieve some pent up tension, both in a physical and emotional sense, are all too relatable. In the following interview with Ingvar, we talk about the foundation of The Land and how his friendship with Steve and Cameron helped create this genuinely powerful film. Our conversation does include discussion about trauma and abuse, so if these aspects are triggering for you, then maybe skip this interview. For everyone else, please enjoy this discussion with Ingvar. To keep track of where the film will be available to view in the future, please visit thelandmovie.com.

Performances across the board are exemplary, with Steve and Cameron building off their real-life friendship to portray a friendship that has been tested by distance and time, even though the echoes of it continue to resonate. For Anna Lise Philips, the moments of solitude where she's finally able to relieve some pent up tension, both in a physical and emotional sense, are all too relatable. In the following interview with Ingvar, we talk about the foundation of The Land and how his friendship with Steve and Cameron helped create this genuinely powerful film. Our conversation does include discussion about trauma and abuse, so if these aspects are triggering for you, then maybe skip this interview.For everyone else, please enjoy this discussion with Ingvar.

Imagine learning a language that is spoken by only a few hundred people—an Indigenous language that belongs to a people and a land that have been in relationship with each other for countless generations. This is the heart of our episode about Gwich'in language revitalization in the Boreal. Princess Daazhraii Johnson (Neets'aii Gwich'in) is an Indigenous TV and film producer on a patient journey of learning, reclaiming, and revitalizing Gwich'in. The language connects her to the land and to the people who came before her. “Our generation is really making the effort to use the language, and express ourselves in the language, and it's really powerful,” she explains. Princess and her dear friend Alishia Carlson (also Neets'aii Gwich'in) talk with language journalist Kavita Pillay about the struggles of learning Gwich'in, and the joy with which they approach the effort, especially in relation to the language learning of children. Princess is inspiring a whole new generation to be curious about Indigenous languages through her work as a screenwriter on the Peabody award-winning PBS Kids series Molly of Denali. Also in this episode: a celebration of caribou. Content note: The episode touches on the violence of residential schools on Turtle Island and how they contributed to today's language crisis.

Today's Topic:世界仍需“国际妇女节”的六大原因主播:Selah | 翩翩音乐:今天是3月8日国际妇女节,Happy International Women's Day,everyone!妇女节自20世纪初期确立到今日,已经有了百余年的时间。世界为什么仍然需要妇女节?有“六大原因”!一、世界仍需妇女节的“六大原因”01. Reason 1——Forced Marriage强迫婚姻28 girls a minute are being forced to marry against their will.全球范围内,每分钟,有28名女孩,被强迫结婚。据联合国妇女权能署(UN Women)数据统计,现如今有多于250 million(2.5亿)的女孩被强迫结婚before their 15th birthday,15岁前。*force v. 强迫*against prep.与……相反*will n. 意愿;意志02.Reason 2 ——Violence暴力World Health Organization(世界卫生组织WHO)数据统计显示:1 in 3 women will experience violence. 全球范围内,平均每3个中有一名女性,会遭受暴力。这种暴力既有physical 身体上的,也有sexual abuse(性虐待)。*WHO=World Health Organization世界卫生组织*violence /ˈvaɪələns/ n. 暴力*physical /ˈfɪzɪkl/ adj. 身体的*abuse /əˈbjuːs/ n.虐待03. Reason 3 ——Lack of Education教育缺失181 million girls and young women are not in education, employment or training.全球约有1.8亿年轻女子,没有受教育,没有工作,没有培训。英国用一个term(专有名词)来指这种情况:Neets(“not in education,employment or training”的缩写)。当女孩miss out oneducation,缺失教育,forced marriage(强迫婚姻), trafficking(人口拐卖)and poverty(贫穷)这些风险都会增加。Education is the key to a successful future and hopeful life.教育,是这些女孩有个成功未来的关键,也是生活有希望的关键。*employment /ɪmˈplɔɪmənt/ n. 工作*miss out on 失去……的机会*(human)trafficking /ˈtræfɪkɪŋ/ n. 人口拐卖*poverty /ˈpɑ:vərti/ n. 贫穷04. Reason 4 ——Limited Freedom of Money 金钱自由受限72 countries don't allow women to open a bank account.全球有72个国家,不允许妇女开银行账户。没有金钱的自由,就意味着much less freedom and independence,更少的自由和独立。*account /əˈkaʊnt/ n. 账户*independence /ˌɪndɪˈpendəns/ n. 独立05. Reason 5——Body Dissatisfaction外貌焦虑1 in 10 women have self-harmed because of their body image.十个女性中,就有一个会因为自己的外表,而自我伤害。很多女性都会有外貌焦虑,她们会因为社会和周围的人用(a certain way)某种特定的眼光来看自己,而感受到巨大的pressure压力。所以,我们平时对身边的女性,要多一些encouraging(鼓励),少一些judgement(评判)。奥黛丽·赫本有一首诗,就是讲女性怎样才是最美的,和广大女性朋友共勉。For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.--Audrey Hepburn想要美丽的眼睛,就要发现别人身上的美;想要美丽的嘴唇,就要说一些善意的话;想要优美的姿态,就要与知识同行,这样你就永不孤单。--奥黛丽·赫本06. Reason 6——Human Trafficking人口拐卖Most victims (79%)of human trafficking are women. 人口拐卖受害者中,79%是女性此信息is based on data gathered from 155 countries(根据全球155个国家提供的数据)这些女性同胞的灾难与困境,happen all around the world,只是,生活在和平国家的我们,并没有realizing or knowing it is happening。*victim /ˈvɪktɪm/ n. 受害者* human trafficking人口拐卖* sexual exploitation性交易* victims受害者二、妇女节的正确打开方式The good way to celebrateWhy should men care about women's day?男生为什么应当重视妇女节?- There are many women in your life.- You must show your support to bring about real change in the world.在三八妇女节这天,广大的男性朋友们,可以借此机会,提醒自己:从古到今,从东到西,千百年来,女性从各个角度来讲,都很不容易。应该对身边的女性给予充分的尊重与理解,在家庭中帮助女性多承担一些,help them carry the burden。在日常生活中,男性应有担当、有理想、有行动,积极进取,刚健不息。女生们呢,How should we celebrate Women's Day?从女性角度来讲,我们要充分理解到“我们是一个家庭、乃至社会的灵魂”,在此基础上,我们女性,要进行充分的成长自我。有知识、有技能,有智慧,宁静从容,厚德载物。女同胞们,今天,我们除了买礼物,网上消费,也许还有更有意义的妇女节过法:1. Reach out to the women in your life who have inspired you.联系那些激励过你的女性。2. Call, text, send a card or email a woman who you know who has had an impact on your life.联系那个对你人生有过影响的女性(也许是亲戚、导师、老师、朋友、同事…),打电话、信息、寄卡片、邮件都可以。3. 看看身边有没有需要帮助的女性,为她提供一定的帮助,可以是精神的、语言的,或者物质的。We hope you allowed Women's day to become more meaningful to you. We can all make a difference and change the world around us.请在留言板告诉大家,对你生命有积极影响的是哪位女性?她如何影响的你呢?
Episode 108 of Key Frames, a podcast about anime. Once upon a time, Andy bought Ben a couple of video games as gifts, but Ben didn't make the time to play them, so Andy made Ben feel really bad about that fact on a podcast to which dozens of people listen. This is now the final episode, because Ben's going into hiding. Kidding! We are talking about NEETs and hikikomori, though, so Ben's embarrassment and shame are fitting in a way. Also, after the break, Andy and Jeff talk about Ranking of Kings and other anime currently airing, while Ben gives his take on the decade-old Mardock Scramble movies. The post 108 - The Hobby Fairy first appeared on Key Frames.

Babies. Can't live with 'em... etc. Japan is frequently seen as the poster child for modern societies that have given up on propagating their own population through reproduction.

For most of her life, Neets'aii Gwich'in leader Sarah James has worked to protect her homelands, which include the coastal plain of the nearby Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. It hasn't been easy. The United States government wants to lease the area for oil exploration and drilling. The region's longtime inhabitants say those plans threaten a beloved porcupine caribou population and land that they call sacred.
Cup Fever grips the Rank Squad as we look forward to the final game of the English domestic season—The Heads Up FA Cup Final, with our pals over at Deliveroo. To give you the full lowdown, we brought in two friends of the Squad to give the lowdown on each side. In the red corner, CheekySport's Joel Beya representing Arsenal, gave us his thoughts on how the Gunners' new-found confidence and workrate under Mikel Arteta would be the key to them lifting the famous old trophy. And in the blue corner, Neets of Goal Diggers Podcast and the FLWN channel told us that it'll be royal blue ribbons on the Cup, because, in her own words, "it's Arsenal". Of course, there's all the trimmings too - this is Ranks. Hot Takes see Sam suggesting penalties should only count for half a goal in Golden Boot races; Dean giving the latest on Thiago's proposed move to Liverpool and Jack waxing lyrical about David Silva; before we give you everything you need to know on the transfers and tactics of both sides in this Cup Final. There's talk about Werner, Ziyech, Havertz, Chilwell, Rice, Pope, how Lampard fits them all in next season and where the Blues need further reinforcements. In terms of the Gunners, we discuss Thomas Partey, Luka Jovic, Willian, Ryan Fraser, Thiago Silva, and why fans should be excited by the return of William Saliba.
