Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 29th of May 2025 Last week's high-speed solar wind, from a massive coronal hole on the Sun, took its toll on the HF bands. However, this week has been little better. Another coronal hole running diagonally across the Sun has been emitting particles that have pushed the Kp index up to a maximum of 6.67 w,hich puts us into visible aurora territory. Nevertheless, some DX has been worked, including CP4BT in Bolivia, ZP5KP in Paraguay and V44KAI in St Kitts and Nevis. These were reported by Karl, G0SKW on the CDXC Slack alerting system. BA100IARU, a special event station celebrating the 100th anniversary of the International Amateur Radio Union, has been active from Beijing, China and has been worked on 20m CW. The station's QRZ.com page provides real-time updates on which band the operators are working on. Most of the DX has been worked on 21, 18 and 14 MHz, with the 10m band mostly closed due to the summer doldrums. There have not been too many Sporadic-E openings on the 10m band. Instead, most of the Sporadic-E reports have been on the 6m band. The solar flux index has increased, standing at 144 on Thursday, the 29th of May, which is always a good sign. The solar disk is looking quite healthy at the moment with spots in both hemispheres. As of last Thursday, the 29th of May, there had been 43 C-class flares over the previous five days, as well as six more potent M-class events and one X-class flare. So, the Sun is still very active. Next week, NOAA predicts that the solar flux index will reduce again, perhaps going as low as 110 by Wednesday, the 4th of June. It does look like we are in for a rough ride with unsettled geomagnetic conditions forecast for the coming week. Looking further ahead, the 13th and 14th of June seem to be the worst days, when a Kp index of five is forecast. As usual, a high Kp index can result in lowered maximum usable frequencies and aurora-like conditions, with a slow recovery. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The weather continues to be unsettled into the coming week, especially for northern areas, but with some drier and warmer spells in the south. There do not appear to be strong signs for any Tropo success, but there should be a chance of occasional rain scatter on the GHz bands. Some models suggest we are on the edge of high pressure over the North Sea. Others drive a deep low right across the country. This will resolve itself next week, but for now, it's not at all clear which forecast will win through. The prospects for meteor scatter are mostly random meteors, but towards the end of this wee,k the daytime Arietids will peak to enhance chances further. The solar auroral alerts keep coming, so it's reasonable to expect the chance of some radio response, such as watery-sounding signals on HF, even if we don't go to the full effects on VHF. It's certainly worth watching for those increasing Kp values. The Sporadic-E prospects often burst into life about now. So, after a few reasonable 6m band openings, like the one into southeast Europe on Wednesday the 28th, make sure you are ready for the first week in June – one of the prime weeks for Sporadic-E opportunities. This is partly due to meteor input and the fact that the tidal winds in the E region are taking on their summer pattern. The long polar days mean that the low-pressure weather patterns are also beginning to affect the northern polar routes to China and Japan across northern Russia, with their possible weather triggers, like jet streams. EME path losses are increasing again. Moon windows shorten, and peak elevation is falling as the Moon's declination goes negative again on Wednesday, the 4th of June. 144MHz sky noise is low and remains low as the week progresses. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Yesterday a boy was swept out to sea while playing in a river, and he still hasn't been found. Also missing is a fisherman, surnamed Chen, who was nearby and jumped in to rescue the boy. Chen managed to grab hold of the boy and tried to swim back to shore, but they were both engulfed (吞噬) by a wave and disappeared, according to witnesses. Rescuers searched for the two last night, unsuccessfully, but paused overnight.

The work stoppage that began Wednesday was in response to a direct call from Petro. He has argued that Congress is working against the interest of workers by repeatedly blocking his efforts to reform labor regulations. The referendum, whose questions would include whether workdays should be limited to eight hours, has become the crux (難點,關鍵) of long-running tensions between the executive and legislative branches. In the capital, some workers blocked public bus lanes, impeding the movement of thousands of people. Canada Manitoba Declares Emergency Over Wildfire The Canadian province of Manitoba has declared a province-wide state of emergency over a series of wildfires, and Prime Minister Mark Carney has agreed to send in the military to help. Manitoba's premier says the fires have forced 17-thousand people across several communities to flee. He calls it the largest such exodus (大批人的)退出,離開) in living memory in the province. Canada's wildfire season runs May through September. Its worst-ever wildfire season was in 2023, when fires choked much of North America with dangerous smoke for months. That was the I.C.R.T.

Kultūras rondo saruna ar režisoru pirms viņš devās prom no Latvijas. 47 gadus vecais japāņu izcelsmes amerikāņu režisors Kerijs Džoudži Fukunaga pasaulē ir zināms gan kā režisors, gan izpildproducents, gan scenārists. Viņa spilgtāko darbu sarakstā ir tādas filmas, kā aģents 007 Džeims Bonds „No Time To Die” jeb „Nav laika mirt”, TV seriāla „True Detective” pirmā sezona, kas vēl šobaltdien tiek uzskatīta par žanra šedevru, kā arī vēsturiskā drāma „Džeina Eira”. Fukunaga ir strādājis ar tādām pasaules mēroga zvaigznēm kā Daniels Kreigs, Maikls Fasbenders, Eva Grīna, Džūdija Denča, Benedikts Kamberbačs, Vudijs Harelsons, Metju Makhonahijs un vēl daudziem citiem. Aizvadītā pusgada laikā Fukunaga vairākas epizodes savai jaunākajai filmai „Asinis uz sniega”, kas tapusi pēc slavenā norvēģu kriminālromānu autora Jū Nesbē darba "Blood on Snow" motīviem, filmēja Rīgā. Šobrīd filmēšanas darbi ir beigušies un Kerijs Fukunaga pirms došanās prom piekrita īsai sarunu. Viņš atnāca uz Latvijas Radio māju un uzreiz teica, ka šī būtu ļoti laba kino lokācija. Ir darba dienas vēls vakars un ar režisoru sarunājamies Kultūras rondo redakcijā gan par kino, gan viņa kā brīvprātīgā darbu kara plosītajā Ukrainā un arī par to, ko Amerikas kinoļaudis domā par savas valsts ārpolitiku šobrīd. Kā Rīga nokļuva jūsu redzes lokā filmas "Asinis uz sniega" vajadzībām? Kerijs Fukunaga: Mūsu lokāciju menedžerei Marijai Derkevičai jau bija iestrādes Rīgā no iepriekšējās filmas izpētes, un tā filmas diemžēl netika pabeigta. Bet viņa, zinot mūsu vajadzības, zināja teikt, ka Rīgā ir ļoti daudz līdzīgu un raksturīgu ēku, kas atgādina 70. gadu Oslo, un tieši šajā laika posmā risinās "Asinis uz sniega" darbība. Pati Oslo mūsdienās galīgi neatgādina to pilsētu, kāda tā bija septiņdesmitajos - tā ir pilsēta, kas atrodas kalnainā ielejā, turklāt daži tās rajoni ir mainījušies līdz nepazīšanai, daži pat nojaukti vispār. Toreiz, pirms 10 gadiem, teroristu uzbrukuma dēļ esot nācies nojaukt pat veselu kvartālu. Arī tā pati Stokholma, Malme vai Kopenhāgena, Reikjavīka ir mainījušās. Tāpēc Rīga bija labākā izvēle. Turklāt šeit ir vairākas lietas, kuras filmas vajadzībām varam vairāk atļauties, piemēram, darbaspēks ir lētāks nekā citur. Materiāli gan nekļūst lētāki filmas setu būvēšanai, jo daudz kas tomēr jāved un jāimportē. Tas objektīvi ceļ cenu, bet darbaspēks noteikti ir faktors, kāpēc izvēlējāmies Rīgu. Piemēram, mēs nupat trīs setus būvējām Londonā, un tas bija teju uz pusi dārgāk nekā Rīgā. (..) Mums pašiem šeit tā ir liela lieta - zināt, ka tepat pa Vecrīgu, iespējams, pastaigājas tādas zvaigznes kā Benedikts Kamberbačs un Eva Grīna, kura pat apmeklēja tavu izstādi Rīgā. Lai arī tu esi režisors, priekšnieks, kurš vada, bet tik un tā - kā ir tev pašam? Esi strādājis ar Danielu Kreigu Džeimsa Bonda filmā un citām zvaigznēm. Kā tas ir? Kerijs Fukunaga: Šobrīd, kad aiz muguras jau tik daudz darbu un filmu, es teiktu, ka tik ļoti neuztraucos vairāk. Bet atceros, kas taisīju savu vēsturisko filmu "Džeina Eira", kur galvenajās lomās bija tādas zvaigznes kā Maikls Fasbenders, Mia Vasikovska un Džūdija Denča, es domāju, ko gan es kā režisors varu vispār ietekmēt tik pieredzējušas aktrises kā Džūdija Denča aktierspēle? Tā kā es un viņas aģents esam labi draugi, turklāt es vispār toreiz tikai sāku tik lielus soļus spert lielajā kino, mani mierināja un teica, ka tieši Džūdija ir ļoti atvērta un ieinteresēta šajā sadarbībā. Un tā, pamazām strādājot ar šīm zvaigznēm, es pats ar katru reizi aizvien vairāk redzu viņus kā cilvēcīgas būtnes, nevis to grandiozo sasniegumu sarakstu, kas viņiem katram ir. Un otra lieta, ko minēji, ka režisors ir tas priekšnieks, te  man jāsaka, ka kino tomēr ir kolektīva māksla un režisors ir viena no sadaļām. Ir aktieri, studija īpašnieki, producenti un tā tālāk. Tā kā tam projekta pilotam ir jāspēj visi pasažieri nogādāt galapunktā. Kāda ir tā realitāte medaļas otrā pusē, kā tas ir - strādāt, piemēram, pie Džeimsa Bonda jeb aģenta 007 filmas? Kerijs Fukunaga: Katru reizi, kad strādāju pie liela projekta, vienmēr šķiet, ka es uzsūcu jaunas zināšanas, kuras noteikti varēšu izmantot nākamajā projektā. Bonda gadījumā tas lielākais izaicinājums bija laiks. Nevis tur kaut kāds atsevišķs lietu kalendārs, bet laiks kopumā. Es Bondu pārņēmu, kad tikko prom bija devies Denijs Boils. Un, kā jau šajās milzu budžeta augsta tempa filmās, daudz kas ir atkarīgs no tā datuma, kad tiek noteikta pirmizrāde un kā tiek sakārtots lokāciju kalendārs. Līdz ar to daudzas scenārija lietas tiek piekoriģētas pēdējā mirklī. Tu vari iedomāties, ka tik lielos projektos daudz ko izlemj gadiem iepriekš, un pēc tam pie tā ir jāturas. Mēs Bondu no A līdz Z pabeidzām 18 mēnešos. Ar visu to, ka jau bija sākusies COVID epidēmija, mēs to paspējām, un tas vēl ir relatīvi ātri. Mums vajadzēja ar visiem kaskadieriem, specefektu departamenta dublieriem jau darīt lietas laicīgi, pirms vispār pirmā scenārija aprises bija gatavas. Tā kā laiks Džeimsa Bonda filmā bija vislielākais izaicinājums. Kerijs Džoudži Fukunaga kā brīvprātīgais ir arī strādājis Ukrainā, kurp viņš devās 2022.gadā uzreiz pēc Krievijas uzsāktās pilna mēroga karadarbības. Viņš ne tikai gādāja humāno palīdzību civiliedzīvotājiem, bet arī fotografēja. Viņa fotouzņēmumus kā arī ukraiņu mākslinieces Tatjanas Malinovskas videodarbus  no šī gada marta līdz pat 2.maijam varēja apskatīt arī izstādē "Lyuta vesna – Lost Spring" (Zaudētais pavasaris) Rīgā, galerijā „Cut Art”. Rīgā nupat bija skatāma tava fotogrāfiju izstāde no Ukrainas. Izstāsti šo stāstu, kāpēc tu izlēmi kā brīvprātīgais doties uz kara plosīto Ukrainu un strādāt tur? Kerijs Fukunaga: Es ieguvu grādu politikas zinātnē un politikas vēsturē esmu mācījies ārpus Amerikas Savienotajām Valstīm - Francijā, Grenobles Politikas institūtā. Mani vienmēr interesējusi vēsture, kā arī skats uz ārpusi, uz ārpasauli. Mani vienmēr vairāk interesējusi Amerikas ārpolitika nekā iekšpolitika. Turklāt savulaik ticēju, ka, taisot filmas, mēs varam mainīt un ietekmēt pasauli. Šobrīd gan tik strikti vairs nevaru teikt, redzot, kas notiek apkārt. Īpaši pēc Bonda filmas, es aizvien spēcīgāk izjūtu to, kas notiek pasaulē, to notikumu domino efektu. Jā, es taisu filmas un izklaides industrija ir ļoti būtiska. Bet es vairs sevī iekšēji nespēju ilgāk būt tikai pasīvs vērotājs. Es vēlējos darīt un palīdzēt. Un tā es sazvanīju Hosē Andrē, kurš ir radījis un vada vada "World Central Kitchen", un Ukrainā jau bija viņu palīdzības virtuves, un teicu, ka vēlos braukt uz Ukrainu pie viņiem. Viņš atbildēja, ka varu braukt, bet manu drošību garantēt gan nevarot. Es teicu, ka nebraucu filmēt, bet mans nodoms ir palīdzēt un strādāt tur tieši kara laikā. Sacīts - darīts, ierados.  Sākotnēji darbojos un palīdzēju ar koordinēšanu, tad jau darīju arī citus darbus. Divarpus mēnešu laikā pēc kara sākuma tās vietas, kur biju es, sāka stabilizēties. Sākām Kijivā, tad Irpiņa, Buča, tad devos uz Sumu apgabalu. Tad uz Harkivu, kamēr tur vēl notika aktīva karadarbība, un tur es uzturējos ilgāku laiku. Pēc tam tālāk devos uz Kramatorsku, kur bija ļoti nežēlīgas krievu ofensīvas. Briesmas draudēja visu laiku. Bet tur tajos ciematos un pilsētās bija palikuši ļoti daudz civiliedzīvotāju, un viņi nekādu ofensīvas laikā nevarēja tikt pie iztikai nepieciešamajām lietām. Tad es un citi brīvprātīgie devāmies pie šiem ļaudīm, lai redzētu, kas viņiem trūkst, ukraiņiem vienmēr būs bietes un kartupeļi. Bet bija vajadzīga maize un elementāra medicīniskā palīdzība. Mums tas bija jādara no mājas uz māju, lai pēc tam varētu ziņot uz štābu, ko, kur un kam vajag piegādāt. Tā bija unikāla pieredze, jau savā ziņā tā līdzinās problēmu risināšanai filmas laukumā, tikai šeit tev ir iespēja reāli ietekmēt cilvēku dzīves. Tu iepriekš minēji, ka tevi vairāk interesē Amerikas ārpolitika, nevis iekšpolitika. Es neko nesaprotu un nezinu par tavas valsts iekšpolitiku, bet man ir daži draugi ASV, un viņi saka, ka nav labi. Kas to vērtē šobrīd, atrazdamies šeit, Latvijā? Kerijs Fukunaga: Tas ir apkaunojoši. Šobrīd ir pats sliktākais laiks būt amerikānim. Mēs esam neglīti pasaules acīs. Es nezinu precīzus datus, bet pusei amerikāņu nav pases. Lielākā daļa runā tikai angļu valodā, nezinot vismaz vēl vienu svešvalodu. Ja tev pie ziemeļu robežas ir tikai Kanāda un dienvidos Meksika un apkārt okeāns, tad var nelikties ne zinis. Nav tā kā šeit, Eiropā, kur dažādas kultūras ir visapkārt un tev jāiekļaujas tajā mikslī. Tāpēc krievu propaganda svin uzvaru Amerikā šobrīd. Tas nu reiz ir skaidrs. Un tas notiek jau gadiem, to var redzēt komentāru sadaļā. Tāda sajūta, ka cilvēki darbojas pēc konkrēta scenārija, jo tieši tāda, kādu piedāvā propaganda. Ir bijuši pētījumi par šo un tie liecina par to, ka šeit nav iespējama nekāda saprātīga diskusija iepretīm sazvērestības teorijām un propagandai. It kā cilvēki pēkšņi būtu pamodušies jaunā patiesībā, no kuras nav atpakaļceļa.  Ko saka tev zināmie filmu ļaudis? Kerijs Fukunaga: Lielākā daļa no viņiem vienkārši nespēj noticēt tam, kas notiek acu priekšā. Lielākoties tā ir tāda apstulbuma sajūta šāda absurda priekšā. Protams, daudzi sev jautā - ko es varu darīt lietas labā? Kā redzam, ielu protesti šeit nedarbojas. Ko darīt? Es nezinu. Man nav atbildes. Vēsture rāda, ka šādi lieli pagriezieni parasti notiek ar lielu asins izliešanu. Arī mums šeit, tūkstošiem kilometru attālumā no ASV, bezmaz vai piespiedu kārtā ir jācenšas saprast Amerikas politiku. Ko un kāpēc Amerika dara? Kāpēc? Kerijs Fukunaga: Es šobrīd nevaru uzburt labāku nākotnes vīziju. Šobrīd nudien neizskatās labi. Tomēr vēsture rāda, ka Amerika var uzņemties vadību un nostāties vēstures pareizajā pusē. To pierāda kaut vai Rūzvelta politika īsi pirms Otrā pasaules kara, kad ASV izvēlējās izolacionisma politiku un nevienai no tobrīd apdraudētajām pusēm nepalīdzēja. Piemēram, viņš publiski neatsaucās uz Japānas iebrukumu Mandžūrijā, bet fonā jau sāka gatavoties karam. Es gan neliktu Rūzveltu un Trampu vienos svaru kausos. Nebūt. Vairāk par Krieviju šobrīd ASV militāri industriālais komplekss ir uztraucies par Ķīnu, un dažiem vēl šķiet, ka tā varētu būt Trampa ilgtermiņa spēle, lai nošķirtu Krieviju no Ķīnas un tie nekļūtu par vienotu spēku. Bet es neticu, ka Tramps ir tik gudrs, tā tāda muļķu parāde drīzāk. Kāda ir mākslinieku un kultūras cilvēku atbildība šajos laikos? Arī pie mums notiek diskusijas par to, ka strausa politiku, iebāžot galvu smiltīs un izliekoties, ka kara nav, neies krastā. Vai tev ir tāpat? Kerijs Fukunaga: Jā. Mēs jau Bondu filmējot, kas nu jau ir pirms sešiem gadiem, apspriedām Surkovu, Putina ideoloģijas autoru un polittehnologu. Tam cilvēkam ir pieredze gan televīzijā, gan rakstniecībā, un viņš prot pretnostatīt divas puses un radīt sajukumu, kurā tad var no aizkulisēm visu vērot un kontrolēt. Dezinformācija ir ļoti spēcīgs ierocis, mēs to centāmies arī iedzīvināt mūsu filmas ļaunajā tēlā. Bet tas, ko viņi Krievijā dara ar sabiedrību, ir nesalīdzināmi milzīgāks spektrs, tie ir kā nebeidzami, milzīgi viļņi, kam cilvēks vairs nav spējīgs stāties pretī un noslīkst tajos. Un es teiktu tā: ja mākslai ir iespēja pacelties virs tā visa un atmaskot to apburto loku, tam noteikti ir vērtība. Un noslēgumā - kas būs tas, ko tu sev paņēmis līdzi no Rīgā pavadītā laika? Kerijs Fukunaga: Tas saistās zināmā mērā ar to, ko redzu Ukrainā. Iemesls, kāpēc es pazīstu arī jūsu kino ļaudis, piemēram, Lauri un Raiti Ābeles, ir profesionālais latviešu skeitbordists Madars Apse. Mēs esam draugi. Reiz, redzot Madara un viņa draudzeni Viļņā, aizrunājāmies par to, kā ir satikušies mūsu vecvecāki. Viņš saka - gulagā, un ironiskā kārtā arī mani vecvecāki satikās gulagā, un tajā brīdī man ir iespēja nonākt nevis tādā akadēmiskā kārtā, bet satikt reālus cilvēkus, kuriem tā padomju okupācijas trauma atbalsojas paaudzēs un turpina ārdīties acu priekšā Ukrainā. Un es redzu, cik jūs šeit nopietni to uztverat, ka spējat novērtēt to, ka esat NATO, jo citādāk tās šausmas varētu atkārtoties arī šeit. Un jā, tas, ko es paņemu līdzi, ir absolūta cieņa pret jums par to, kā jūs paši esat nosargājuši savu brīvību un negrasāties to atkal pazaudēt.

Nevis Brands CEO John Kueber joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the latest milestones in the company's national expansion strategy. The company has officially launched its flagship cannabis beverage, Major, in the Illinois market and is also rolling out broader distribution of its Happy Apple hemp-derived product in both North and South Carolina. In Illinois, Nevis Brands has secured all necessary state approvals for both product formulation and packaging. Initial production of the Major 100mg 2 oz shots is now complete, and the product is currently available at multiple dispensaries across the Chicago area. The launch lineup includes three popular flavors: Fruit Punch, Blackberry Lemonade, and Blueberry, offering consumers a fast-acting and flavorful THC-infused beverage experience. Meanwhile, the company is also accelerating the growth of its Happy Apple product in the Southeast. Through a new agreement with a top-tier distribution partner in North Carolina, Nevis is expanding its retail footprint to include specialty beer and wine outlets as well as on-premise locations such as bars and entertainment venues across both North and South Carolina. Kueber noted that this regional expansion aligns with the company's broader goal of making Happy Apple a go-to hemp-derived beverage in traditional retail and hospitality channels. To further support growth, Nevis is actively building out its e-commerce capabilities, leveraging social media influencers and digital platforms to enable direct-to-consumer sales. With demand for cannabis- and hemp-infused beverages continuing to rise, Nevis Brands is positioning itself as a leader in both innovation and market reach within the growing functional beverage category. #proactiveinvestors #nevisbrandsinc #cse #nevi #otcqb #nevif #majorbrand #cannabis #CannabisInvesting #THCDrinks #HappyApple #CannabisStocks #HempTHC #CannabisBeverages #InvestorUpdate #JohnKueber #CannabisNews #CannabisRevenue #DebtReduction #ProactiveInvestors

Nevis Brands CEO John Kueber joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share highlights from the company's first quarter financial results, marking a strong start to the year driven by strategic market expansion and operational efficiencies. Kueber reported that Nevis achieved “close to record revenue” in Q1, with a 61% increase in overall revenue compared to the previous period. This substantial growth was largely fueled by robust performance in New Jersey and Missouri, where the company's flagship 100mg cannabis beverage line has secured a dominant market share. In addition, Nevis continues to hold a strong foothold in its home state of Washington, maintaining its presence in an increasingly competitive landscape. One of the most notable financial milestones was a record-setting 78% gross margin. Kueber credited this achievement to a year-long focus on optimizing the company's supply chain and reducing packaging costs. “We've really been able to dial in our suppliers,” he said, underscoring Nevis' lean operational model and its focus on long-term profitability through cost discipline and operational efficiency. Beyond financial performance, Kueber also highlighted the company's commitment to innovation, particularly the growing success of Happy Apple, a hemp-derived THC beverage. With hemp's federal legality, the product offers a broader path to market entry compared to traditional cannabis-based beverages. This not only enables cross-state distribution but also opens up retail opportunities beyond traditional dispensaries. Looking ahead, Kueber shared that Nevis expects to expand into at least one new U.S. territory in the coming quarter and hinted at additional announcements on the horizon. With its strong financial performance, product innovation, and expanding national footprint, Nevis Brands is positioning itself as a key player in the cannabis beverage market. #proactiveinvestors #nevisbrandsinc #cse #nevi #otcqb #nevif #majorbrand #cannabis #CannabisInvesting #THCDrinks #HappyApple #CannabisStocks #HempTHC #CannabisBeverages #InvestorUpdate #JohnKueber #CannabisNews #CannabisRevenue #DebtReduction #ProactiveInvestors

Today, we delve into the world of organizations and what my guest calls a “future-fit” organisational culture. My guest is Geoff Marlow and he has over three decades of experience around the world helping organisations create these future-fit cultures. That term caught my attention because around here, we're interested in the future and uncertainty. For part of his career, Geoff spent time on the leadership team of the Society for Organisational Learning,  which included the legendary Dr. Peter Senge - a renowned or was a renowned management guru and Arie de Geus, a scenario thinker who was the head of Shell's strategic planning group.  Geoff helps leaders understand why organisations fail or succeed. And we tackle all of that in this conversation. We get into Geoff's three aspects of a future-fit culture, which are sense-making, decision-making, and action-taking. We also talk about leadership, change, and so much more.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 85-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,204 on turnover of 4.8-billion N-T. The market closed higher on Monday led by artificial intelligence related stocks ahead off the start of Nvidia's annual G-P-U technology conference - at which its hoped the company will be showcasing positive leads. Chinese 'military unification' influencer 'in theory' must go by 24th Interior Minister Liu Shi-fang says a Chinese national who advocated for China's annexation of Taiwan through military force should, "in theory," leave the country within 10 days of receiving her deportation order. According to Liu, the woman received that deportation order on Saturday. Speaking during a legislative hearing, the interior minister said the deportation order is "somewhat similar (相似的)" to registered mail - where the time starts from the day after the recipient receives the letter. .. and if "it was delivered to your house but you didn't receive it until the next day, then counting would start from the third day, which means there is some wiggle room." The statement comes after the National Immigration Agency this past weekend announced that a deportation order had been sent to a woman identified by a public social media account known as "Yaya in Taiwan." St. Kitts and Nevis foreign minister visits Taiwan The Ministry of Foreign Affairs says Saint Kitts and Nevis' foreign minister is visiting Taiwan this week. According to the ministry, it's the third time that Denzil Douglas has visited Taiwan is his capacity (職位) as foreign minister and he will be meeting with senior government officials during his five-day stay. Douglas and his delegation were welcomed on arriving at Taoyuan International Airport by Deputy Foreign Minister Chen Ming-chi. Douglas is scheduled to meet with President Lai Ching-te and Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung this week. The delegation will also visit the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Israel Launches New Strikes Against Hamas Israel launched new strikes against Hamas and promised ‘increasing military force' after talks on on further hostage releases stalled. Early Friday morning, Israel's Prime Minister's office said it instructed the army to strike Hamas across Gaza. The statement said it was because of Hamas' repeated refusals to release its hostages and its rejection (拒絕) of all offers it received from the U.S. presidential envoy Steve Witkoff and mediators. The strikes come after nearly two months of a ceasefire to pause the 17-month long war where dozens of hostages were released for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners. Hamas is believed to have 24 living hostages and the bodies of 35 others. Sweden Gives Uganda Funds for Ebola Sweden has announced new funding of $2 million to support Uganda's response to the ongoing Sudan Ebola Virus Outbreak. The funding will strengthen efforts in the affected districts of Kampala, Mbale, and Jinja – focusing on risk communication, infection prevention (預防), and critical health services. Michael Baleke reports. Pope Shows Slight Improvement Pope Francis is registering new slight improvements in his monthlong treatment for double pneumonia. The 88-year-old pope is now able to spend some time during the day off high flows of oxygen and use just ordinary supplemental oxygen delivered by a nasal tube. Doctors are also trying to cut back on the amount of time he uses a noninvasive (非侵入性的) mechanical ventilation mask at night, to force his lungs to work more.

This Day in Legal History: Lend-Lease ActOn March 11, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Lend-Lease Act into law, fundamentally reshaping U.S. foreign policy during World War II. The legislation empowered the President to provide military aid to countries deemed essential to American national security, even if they could not immediately pay for the supplies. This marked a decisive shift from the nation's prior isolationist stance, allowing Roosevelt to support the Allies without directly engaging in combat. Under the act, the United States sent over $50 billion in war materials to nations such as the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, and China. The aid included weapons, vehicles, food, and other critical supplies, strengthening the Allied war effort against Axis forces. British Prime Minister Winston Churchill described the act as crucial to his country's survival, calling it "the most unsordid act in the history of any nation." The law also laid the groundwork for closer U.S.-Allied relations, ensuring American economic and military influence in global affairs. While many supported the act as a necessary step to combat fascism, isolationists in Congress criticized it as a step toward war. Their fears proved correct when Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941 led to full U.S. involvement in the conflict. Lend-Lease remained in effect until September 1945, helping to shape the postwar world order. The program reinforced the role of the United States as the "Arsenal of Democracy," a term Roosevelt had coined to describe its industrial and military production for the Allied cause. The principles behind Lend-Lease also influenced future U.S. foreign aid programs, including the Marshall Plan. By prioritizing strategic alliances and military support, the act cemented America's role as a dominant force in international relations.U.S. Circuit Judge James Ho resigned from the Federal Judges Association (FJA) over its recent statement addressing rising threats, criticism, and violence against the judiciary. Ho, a Trump-appointed judge and potential Supreme Court nominee, objected to what he saw as a selective concern for judicial independence. The FJA, which represents over 1,100 federal judges, warned against "irresponsible rhetoric" and security risks but did not name specific cases or threats. The statement came amid increasing attacks on judges from figures like Elon Musk and Trump allies, particularly targeting those blocking conservative policies. FJA President Judge Michelle Childs cited growing threats, including intimidation and impeachment efforts, as challenges to judicial independence. Ho criticized the group for not issuing similar warnings when conservative justices, like Brett Kavanaugh, faced threats, arguing that defending only certain judges politicizes the judiciary. He announced his resignation at a Federalist Society event, framing his departure as a stand against perceived bias. The FJA did not respond to requests for comment.Fun fact about Judge Ho, he was sworn in to the 5th Circuit by Justice Clarence Thomas at a library owned by Harlan Crow. Longtime readers of Minimum Competence will remember I featured Crow in a column back in 2023:We've learned much about Crow over the past few weeks—as a friend and benefactor of Justice Clarence Thomas, a collector of Hitlerania and garden gnome versions of history's greatest monsters, and a holder of a “cashport” (I'm coining that term here) to St. Kitts and Nevis, another country that is well known as a tax haven. Some call them golden visas, but that's a euphemism intended to give the entire process the air of legitimacy. James Bond carries a golden visa, Harlan Crow buys a cashport.Trump-appointed judge quits judicial group over warning about threats | ReutersGolden Visas Let People Like Harlan Crow Keep Too Much Hidden (2)The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a challenge to Colorado's ban on "conversion therapy" for minors, brought by Christian therapist Kaley Chiles. Chiles argues the 2019 law violates her First Amendment rights by restricting her ability to counsel clients in line with her religious beliefs. Colorado officials maintain that the law regulates professional conduct, not speech. Lower courts upheld the ban, citing evidence that conversion therapy is harmful and ineffective. The Supreme Court's decision to take the case follows its recent pattern of ruling in favor of religious interests over LGBT protections. The Court previously declined to hear a similar case from Washington state, though conservative justices dissented. The case will be argued in the Court's next term, starting in October. The ruling could have nationwide implications, as over two dozen states have similar bans. The Court is also considering other cases on LGBT and religious rights this term, with decisions expected by June.US Supreme Court to hear challenge to Colorado gay 'conversion therapy' ban | ReutersWealthy U.S. colleges are ramping up efforts to fight potential tax increases on their large endowments amid growing Republican scrutiny. The Trump administration's recent decision to cut federal funding to Columbia University over alleged antisemitism is just one example of political pressure elite schools are facing. Universities like Harvard, Princeton, and MIT are intensifying lobbying efforts, with leaders traveling to Washington to protect their multibillion-dollar funds. Critics argue that these institutions, which already benefit from tax advantages, should not be allowed to accumulate vast wealth tax-free while tuition remains high. Some proposals in Congress seek to raise the current 1.4% endowment tax or expand it to include schools with smaller per-student endowments. Universities warn that higher taxes could reduce financial aid and deter donors, affecting students who rely on scholarships. The fight comes as Congress prepares for a major tax policy debate in 2025, with Republican lawmakers pushing for broader tax reform. Some smaller institutions, like Wabash College, fear they could be unfairly targeted despite having far fewer resources than elite schools. Meanwhile, top universities continue to brace for further financial and political attacks, with some implementing hiring freezes in response to federal funding threats.Wealthiest Colleges Fight to Protect Their Riches From Taxation This is a public episode.

Asset Protection For Lawsuits and Divorce

Blake Harris shares tips for how to improve your asset protection! The conversation delves into how offshore trusts differ from domestic ones. Blake also dispels misconceptions about offshore trusts, emphasizing their legality and utility for asset protection rather than tax evasion. We explore how these trusts work, the best jurisdictions for establishing them, and the practical benefits for individuals seeking robust asset protection.  Today we discuss... Offshore trusts help protect assets from lawsuits and divorces while allowing clients to retain control over their investments. Asset protection trusts are designed to prevent courts from easily seizing assets. Offshore trusts offer stronger protection compared to domestic trusts by shifting control to foreign trustees in jurisdictions like the Cook Islands. Offshore trusts provide access to foreign investments and international diversification opportunities. Unlike older practices of hiding money offshore, these trusts comply with IRS reporting requirements and are not used for tax evasion. Countries like the Cook Islands, Nevis, and Belize offer asset protection laws, but the Cook Islands are regarded as the strongest jurisdiction. Domestic trusts are weaker because U.S. courts can compel trustees to hand over assets. Offshore trusts can help clients negotiate favorable settlements or avoid lawsuits altogether. Compliance with offshore trust regulations involves some reporting but is manageable with expert guidance. Asset protection trusts primarily safeguard cash, stocks, bonds, crypto, gold, and silver in Swiss bank accounts. Cryptocurrency can be held under a Cook Islands trust via self-custody, third-party vaults, or Swiss bank accounts. Real estate is typically held in LLCs tied to the trust, with options for further protection through equity stripping. Divorces are treated as "super creditor" cases, but Cook Islands trustees can refuse to release funds under duress. Clients comply with court orders but trustees protect assets by requiring sworn statements of no duress. U.S. courts cannot force clients to perjure themselves, further securing trust assets. Over 10 million lawsuits are filed annually in the U.S., creating a need for robust asset protection strategies.

Sarunas pirmajā daļā izjautāju Diānu Zandi par viņas profesionālo ceļu - ko viņa darīja pēc aktrises profesijas, kā darbu apvienoja ar 5 bērnu audzināšanu, ko no viņas prasīja iegūt psiholoģijas zinātņu doktores grādu klīniskajā psiholoģijā. Tas ir ļoti iedvesmojošs stāsts, kas pamudinās nepazaudēt sevi vecāka lomā, un palīdzēs ieraudzīt risinājumus, kā sākt jaunu profesionālo dzīvi, neskatoties uz līdzšinējo karjeru.Sarunas otrajā daļā Diāna piedāvāja risinājumus partnerattiecībām, jo uzskats, ka "mīlestībā visam jānotiek dabiski" ir maldinošs un arī kaitīgs. Viņa stāstīja arī par emocionālās un seksuālās tuvības saistību. Starp citu, Diāna savā Instagram @diana_zande veido interesantus un noderīgus video ierakstus par attiecībām un iespējām dzīvot labāk. Iesaku noklausīties iepriekšējās intervijas ar Diānu Zandi:Pirmā #117 bija par drošu piesaisti un tās ietekmi uz cilvēka dzīvi.Otrā #142 – kā veidot veselīgākas attiecības ar saviem vecākiem.Trešā #171, lai svētki nes prieku, nevis iznes smadzenes.Vairāk informācijas ir sarunas lapā.******************Šo epizodi samontējām ar atbalstu no dalībniekiem mūsu jaunākajā programmā „Jaudīga Partnerība“. Šo programmu Laura un Mišels izveidoja, lai Cilvēkjaudas faniem būtu vēl foršākas attiecības un lai partneri ir spēcīgāka komanda, kurā katrs gan sasniedz savus mērķus, gan kopīgos, gan arī ikdienā piedzīvo vairāk prieka.Ja šīs tēmas tev ir aktuālas, tad šomēness piedalies programmā Jaudīga partnerība.

Le président du Conseil présidentiel de transition, Leslie Voltaire, a lancé un cri d'alarme et demandé de l'aide aux pays de la région lors du sommet de l'Alliance bolivarienne pour les Amériques (Alba). Le n°1 de l'exécutif haïtien est intervenu samedi dans un court message vidéo adressé aux membres de l'Alba, composée du Venezuela, de Cuba, de la Bolivie, du Nicaragua, ainsi que de la Dominique, d'Antigua-et-Barbuda, de Saint-Vincent-et-les Grenadines, de Saint-Kitts-et-Nevis, de Grenade et de Sainte-Lucie. « Nous demandons, a lancé Leslie Voltaire, l'aide de nos frères de l'Alliance bolivarienne pour les Amériques. Une aide pour la sécurité de notre pays, mais aussi une assistance alimentaire. Parce qu'il y a 6 millions d'Haïtiens qui meurent de faim en cette période de Noël. »La situation la plus alarmante concerne les milliers de déplacés internes contraints de fuir leurs maisons à cause de la violence des gangs. Regroupés dans des camps de fortune à Port-au-Prince, ces hommes, femmes et enfants luttent pour leur survie. Se nourrir à sa faim n'est plus un droit fondamental, mais un luxe qu'une grande partie de la population, ne peut plus s'offrir, relate notre correspondant en Haïti, Peterson Luxama. « La situation est incroyable ici, déplore Steeve Fleuranfils, l'un des responsables du camp de fortune installé dans l'ancien local du lycée Marie-Jeanne de Port-au-Prince. Les gens crèvent de faim, ils ne vivent pas. Avant-hier, un enfant fouillait dans les poubelles pour trouver de quoi manger. Quand nous sommes allés sur place, nous l'avons vu se nourrir des téguments d'haricots trouvés dans les ordures. Nous sommes allés à la rencontre de sa mère, elle nous a dit qu'elle aurait fait pareil si la honte ne l'avait pas retenue, car elle a faim aussi. »Selon le dernier rapport du Programme alimentaire mondial (PAM), près de la moitié de la population haïtienne, soit 5,4 millions de personnes, souffre de faim aiguë. Et plus de deux millions d'entre elles se trouvent en situation d'urgence alimentaire, selon la Coordination nationale de la sécurité alimentaire, qui se dit profondément préoccupée par la situation. L'agronome Harmel Cazeau, coordonnateur de cette structure, tire la sonnette d'alarme.« L'ensemble des indicateurs montre que la situation est grave, surtout pour les enfants, les femmes allaitantes et les personnes âgées, déjà en situation de malnutrition. Ils ont dépassé le seuil d'alerte de 10 % fixé par l'OMS. Dans les sites de déplacés, entre 24 % et 25 % des personnes, principalement des enfants, sont en situation de malnutrition. Il faut qu'il y ait des réponses d'urgence pour apporter un soulagement face à cette situation. Une réponse qui s'étende non seulement à court terme, mais aussi à long terme, avec des actions structurantes. Les déplacés dans les camps de fortune doivent figurer parmi les priorités absolues, car cette catégorie de personnes vit dans des conditions presque inhumaines et exécrables. On ne doit pas les négliger ni les laisser sans assistance. »Reportage de Peterson Luxama à retrouver dans son intégralité dans l'édition du jour.Drones : vent de panique aux États-UnisDepuis quelques semaines, de mystérieux drones sont apparus dans le ciel américain, en particulier sur la côte est du pays, dans le Connecticut, à New York, et surtout dans le New Jersey. Tout a commencé à proximité de bâtiments militaires : un membre du personnel a d'abord affirmé avoir aperçu un drone, puis des centaines de personnes ont assuré en avoir vu, à leur tour, dans tout l'État.Des photos, des vidéos circulent sur les réseaux sociaux, et l'affaire prend tellement d'ampleur qu'un aéroport situé au nord de la ville de New York a même dû fermer ses pistes vendredi par mesure de sécurité. Le problème, nous raconte notre correspondante à New York Carrie Nooten, c'est que depuis un mois, les autorités n'arrivent pas à localiser ou identifier ces drones, et que sans information, forcément, les rumeurs les plus folles se font entendre.Il est très difficile pour les Américains de concevoir que l'armée américaine puisse ne pas être au courant. Ça les angoisse, forcément, et ça rend les élus locaux nerveux – le golf de Donald Trump dans le New Jersey est ainsi désormais zone interdite de survol. Et parfois, ce phénomène fait échafauder aux élus des hypothèses sans preuves, comme celle du représentant républicain du New Jersey, Jeff van Drew. « L'Iran, assure-t-il sans avancer le moindre élément à l'appui de son affirmation, a lancé un vaisseau-mère qui contenait ces drones, il y a un mois probablement. »Ce qui n'arrange rien, c'est que l'administration Biden affirme que ces drones ne représentent pas de danger, mais se montre incapable d'en dire plus, à l'image du porte-parole à la Sécurité nationale, John Kirby, pour qui la Maison Blanche « n'a aucune preuve pour le moment que les observations de drones signalées constituent une menace pour la sécurité nationale ou la sécurité publique, ou ont un lien avec l'étranger. »À lire aussiÉtats-Unis : des drones non identifiés créent l'inquiétude, les autorités tentent de rassurerLe département de la Sécurité intérieure et le FBI enquêtent sur ces observations et travaillent en étroite collaboration avec l'État et les forces de l'ordre locales pour fournir des ressources, en utilisant de nombreuses méthodes de détection pour mieux comprendre leur origine, grâce à des technologies de détection électronique très sophistiquées fournies par les autorités fédérales.Les informations sont diverses, mais décrivent pourtant des engins de la taille d'une voiture qui volent pendant plus d'une heure et sont capables de passer en mode furtif, dans le noir total.Le FBI a reçu plus de 5 000 appels de personnes qui en auraient vu – mais seulement une centaine semble crédible. Les autorités fédérales analysent les images partagées ou reçues. Elles les ont croisées aussi avec les plans de vol des avions des environs. Et John Kirby explique que, pour l'instant, il est impossible de confirmer les observations visuelles.« Après examen des images disponibles, il apparaît que bon nombre des observations sont en fait des avions pilotés et exploités légalement. Les garde-côtes américains ont patrouillé le long de l'État du New Jersey et ont confirmé qu'il n'existe aucune preuve d'une quelconque implication de navires côtiers basés à l'étranger. »Ce que révèle surtout toute cette histoire, conclut Carrie Nooten, c'est un décalage de partage de compétences : les autorités locales n'ont pas les moyens technologiques ni les autorisations pour enquêter, et les autorités fédérales manquent de réactivité pour des évènements si locaux et ponctuels.Un phénomène qui dépasse le stade de l'anecdote« On serait tenté d'ignorer tout ça, sauf que plein de théories se baladent et que des millions de personnes pourraient y croire, tacle le Wall Street Journal. C'est le monde dans lequel on vit, nous dit le grand quotidien économique de New York. Et désolé d'insister, mais ça ne vient pas seulement, je cite, des cinglés et des adeptes de la théorie du complot : l'administration Biden a laminé sa crédibilité au point qu'il devient rationnel de ne pas croire ce qu'elle raconte. Souvenez-vous, poursuit le WSJ, du ballon-espion chinois, au début ce n'était rien du tout. Et puis, on a fini par le faire exploser au-dessus de l'Atlantique. Sans parler de cette Maison Blanche qui, pendant des mois, a dissimulé la vérité au sujet de la santé mentale et physique déclinante de Joe Biden. Ou bien du gouvernement pendant la période Covid qui a tenté de censurer les hypothèses alternatives au confinement. Bref, conclut le journal, moins les Américains font confiance aux autorités, plus la panique et les manifestations deviennent possibles. Le gouvernement fédéral devrait préciser avec bien plus de détails au Congrès et à la population ce qu'il se passe vraiment. Car ce dont les Américains ont besoin avant tout, c'est d'un gouvernement digne de confiance. »L'actualité des Outre-mer avec nos confrères de la 1èreTrès peu d'agrumes disponibles pour les grandes tablées des fêtes de fin d'année en Martinique.

I don't claim to speak for anyone but myself, and maybe it's a generational thing, but America, to my way of thinking, is less of a place and more of a belief system; a way of looking at the world and the people in it.Americans believe in opportunity and equality.Americans believe, “Treat others as you would like others to treat you.”Americans believe in defending the weak from the strong who would abuse them.Americans believe in lifting people up, dusting them off, giving them a big smile and telling them to try again.Americans don't scare easily, and we don't leave anyone behind.Shortly after the Mayflower arrived at Plymouth Rock in 1620, men and women from every corner of the world began meeting here, mingling here, and producing mixed-race children here.We've been doing it for 400 years.This place has gathered people from every nation that has ever flown a flag. Some of these people came voluntarily. Others were brought here against their will. But none of that matters because children do not get to choose their parents.Americans are not purebred showdogs.

America is kindness and generosity.If you believe in opportunity and equality, defending the weak, lifting people up, dusting them off, smiling and telling them to try again, you are an American.If you don't scare easily and don't leave anyone behind, you are an American.If you believe in love with its sleeves rolled up, you are an American.Take America with you wherever you go.Be an American today, okay?Roy H.

A New Competition For Law (and Jurisdiction)? Jurisdictions famously compete for businesses to use their corporate law. Less discussed is the competition for having one's law chosen to govern contracts. But it happens. Sovereign debt lawyers in England and New York can, if they have a few drinks in them, can be quite entertaining in their sniping at each other about whether English or New York law is better for sovereign issuers. And the sovereigns for their part, seem to only care about what they have done in the past, regardless of what the lawyers say or what court decisions come down (remember pari passu and Judge Griesa in New York – nothing changed). But recently, as a result of the attempts of a few members of the New York legislature to try and mess with sovereign restructuring framework (“improve”, some would say – but not us), a couple of issuers have put in place provisions that allow them to choose to switch governing law (but not jurisdiction?) mid stream, in the event that New York actually passes some daft legislation. We think this is all great fun to talk about. Angry emails about how we should take these matters more seriously should all be sent to the address of Hamilton Bank in Nevis. Producer: Leanna Doty

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Jessica Swanston Baker who both brings her rich family heritage and academic expertise to trace the roots and evolution of wylers, its integral role in Carnival, and reveal how Caribbean music has profoundly influenced the global soundscape.Journey with us as we explore the dynamic evolution of Caribbean Christmas sports, with a special focus on the historical and cultural transformations in St. Kitts and Nevis. Dr. Swanston Baker sheds light on the technological advancements of the 1980s that propelled the development of wylers music, setting the stage for its contemporary form and challenging societal norms with its rapid tempo. Finally, we discuss the broader impact of globalization on Caribbean music in the 1990s and 2000s. Learn how affordable music technology enabled a new generation of musicians to bypass traditional pathways, reshaping the local and global music scenes. We also dive into the personal stories of navigating family history through ethnomusicology, highlighting the significance of tempo and poetic expression in Caribbean culture.Jessica Swanston Baker is an ethnomusicologist specializing in contemporary popular music of the Circum-Caribbean. Her work centers on the intricate relationships between tempo, aesthetics, colonial legacies, and the intersections of race and gender in the region and its diaspora. Her book, Island Time: Speed and the Archipelago from St. Kitts and Nevis (University of Chicago Press, 2024), traces the sonic history and ethnographic present of wylers, a fast-paced style of music from St. Kitts and Nevis, examining how it reflects broader histories of colonization, Black femininity, and West Indian performance practices. Professor Baker earned a Ph.D. in Ethnomusicology from the University of Pennsylvania and a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance from Bucknell University.  Support the showConnect with Strictly Facts - Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | YouTube | Website Looking to read more about the topics covered in this episode?
