Kentucky Barracuda: Parker H. French by Joe Goodbody https://www.amazon.com/Kentucky-Barracuda-Parker-H-French/dp/1960224239 Parkerhfrench.com Parker Hardin French was certainly an adventurer and entrepreneur who engaged in elaborate, bold, and ambitious exploits but he was also a magnificent con-man-a barracuda. Those who followed his exploits were variously exasperated, captivated by his audacity and nervy cheek, or humored by his latest escapade. He was judged an incorrigible scoundrel, labeled a chronic megalomaniac, or peddled as a misunderstood victim of his enemies. Many believed him a hero- many just thought him insane. Some of his efforts may have begun as legitimate endeavors, but they inevitably resulted in double-crossed partners, betrayed allies. and swindled creditors. French was reported killed five times-twice killed in gunfights; executed in Mexico by both hanging and firing squad; and once killed in Nicaragua. For a short while there was a lapse of interesting press reports, so many just presumed that he was already dead, the victim of retribution or excessive alcohol. He ultimately died of natural causes-in his bed. In the era of steam, sail and horse, the rapidity of French's movement and breadth of his adventures is almost mind-numbing. As a runaway kid he fought in the British Navy in the first Opium War. When he was just 22 years old, he was a commission merchant and, a year later, built the first ocean going ship on the upper Mississippi. Before he was 30, he was the leader of an infamous gold rush expedition; implicated in an irregular invasion of Cuba; jailed bandit and then a paramilitary hero in Mexico; lawyer, district attorney, legislator, journalist, and political enforcer in California; member of an American cabal which governed Nicaragua; and, appointed but rejected Nicaraguan ambassador to the United States. He did not slowdown in his 30s: he was a real estate developer; lawyer; journalist; part of a conspiracy to invade Mexico; suspected seditionist agitator and Confederate agent; jailed as a political prisoner; and, lawyer and purveyor for Union troops. His final days were spent in obscurity but the period was still peppered with the occasional swindle that garnered both regional and national attention. First and foremost, he was always a barracuda.About the author Author of the historical biography: KENTUCKY BARRACUDA: PARKER HARDIN FRENCH (1826-1878) Subtitle: The Notorious Scoundrel & Delightful Rogue of Antebellum and Civil War America.

Interview with CEO Darren BowdenOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/metals-exploration-lsemtl-self-funded-nicaragua-gold-mine-targets-140k-oz-start-in-q4-2026-7323Recording date: 30th September 2025Metals Exploration presents a rare combination of near-term production growth and genuine exploration upside that makes it stand out in today's gold sector. With the Nicaragua project tracking ahead of schedule toward November 2026 first gold and the Philippines operation generating $110-120 million in annual cash flow, the company is executing a self-funded growth strategy that eliminates dilution risk while maintaining aggressive exploration programs.The Nicaragua build represents a transformational step-change for the company. All major equipment has been purchased, earthworks are complete, and the $160 million budget remains intact. More importantly, Nicaragua will produce 50% more ounces than the Philippines operation at roughly the same cost structure, bringing all-in sustaining costs down to $900-1000 per ounce. In an environment where many producers cite $1,400 as the new normal, this sub-$1,000 cost structure translates to 60%+ operating margins at current gold prices a genuine competitive advantage.What separates Metals Exploration from typical development stories is management's proven track record. Over six years, the Philippines operation has maintained just 2% annual cost growth versus industry averages of 10-15%. This isn't theoretical cost control it's demonstrated operational excellence that provides confidence in Nicaragua's projected economics.Beyond production growth, the exploration portfolio offers asymmetric upside. Dupax drilling begins immediately, targeting VMS mineralization that could feed existing permitted infrastructure. But the real company-maker potential lies at Abra, where copper-molybdenum and copper-gold porphyry targets sit in the Cordillera belt home to the Philippines' largest copper-gold deposits including the 40-million-ounce Far Southeast system. CEO Darren Bowden characterizes Nicaragua and Dupax as "forerunners to give us the cash" to develop Abra, the company's "white whale."For investors seeking operational excellence combined with tier-one discovery potential, Metals Exploration offers a compelling risk-reward profile. The strategy is elegant: proven cash flow funds patient exploration capital toward potentially transformational discoveries, all without equity dilution. That's increasingly rare in today's gold sector.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Il y a près de 30 ans, Melinda Consoli et son mari Daniele ont décidé de partir faire du bénévolat au Nicaragua, et plus particulièrement à San Jorge, une municipalité située dans le département de Rivas au sud-ouest du pays. Depuis, le couple enseigne le langage des signes aux personnes sourdes, mais au vu de l'absence d'école appropriée, ils ont décidé de construire l'école Happy Days qui permettra à des élèves sourds, aveugles, avec de légers retards mentaux, des problèmes moteurs ou dyslexiques de suivre des cours d'alphabétisation, d'enseignement du langage des signes et des langues étrangères, de gymnastique, de danse, de musique, de chant, d'artisanat, et tout ce qui peut aider au développement de l'art et la culture. Beaucoup de personnes attendent que cette école ouvre ses portes à San Jorge au Nicaragua, mais pour ce faire, du matériel très divers est encore recherché. DEMANDE: - Du matériel électrique (interrupteurs et prises murales, multiprises, boîtes électriques) - Des lampes de jardin avec panneaux solaires - Des plafonniers - Des petites caméras de surveillance - De la colle pour carreaux et pierre - Des bidons d'enduit d'étanchéité sous carrelage - Des jeux (UNO, dominos, memory, yahtzee, solitaires, jeux instructifs, puzzles pour enfants de 2 à 6 ans et puzzles de 20 à 500 pièces) - Du petit matériel scolaire (crayons, taille-crayons, gommes, trousses, stylos, boîtes, feutres pour tableaux blancs, blocs de papier de couleur, sacs à dos) - De la plomberie (robinets avec mitigeur, pommeaux de douche, syphons de lavabo, porte-serviettes, porte-savons, etc) - Des paquets de laine acrylique de différentes couleurs - Des briques réfractaires rouges - 2 sacs de 10kg de mortier réfractaire - Des sandales de plage en plastique (taille 28 à 45)

Además de reprimir duramente a las voces críticas en Nicaragua, el gobierno autoritario de Daniel Ortega y Rosario Murillo extiende su represión en el extranjero, según indica un informe de Naciones Unidas. En un nuevo informe, tres expertos en derechos humanos de Naciones Unidas denuncian los múltiples métodos del gobierno de Nicaragua para callar a los opositores exiliados. Reed Brody es uno de los autores del informe e indica que “hay 452 personas que se han visto despojadas de la nacionalidad nicaragüense y de la prohibición de volver o de entrar en Nicaragua, hay por lo menos 300 casos -documentados-, pero seguramente hay miles de personas que han querido volver a Nicaragua, pero que se les ha negado la entrada en el aeropuerto o por la compañía de aviación”. Brody cuenta también que a muchas personas, probablemente a centenares o miles, le han rechazado la renovación de su pasaporte. Además, “hay una vigilancia digital muy intensa que cubre también a los nicaragüenses en el exterior, hay amenazas y un castigo a familiares que permanecen en Nicaragua”, indicó.  En el informe, los expertos han documentado y denunciado hostigamiento y violencia física en el extranjero, que en ocasiones ha llegado hasta Europa. “El caso más impactante fue el 19 de junio de este año, el asesinato del mayor Roberto Sancán, una voz muy crítica del gobierno”, relató Brody. La fiscalía en Costa Rica está investigando el caso, según el abogado, aclarando que “están privilegiando la pista de un asesinato por encargo. Todavía no podemos concluir nada, pero su muerte subrayó una realidad escalofriante, que es incluso más allá de las fronteras de Nicaragua, los opositores al gobierno de Daniel Ortega y Rosario Murillo no se sienten seguros”, denunció. De acuerdo con los autores del informe existen cinco casos más de opositores que han sido atacados físicamente fuera de Nicaragua. “Hemos recibido denuncias en Bélgica, en España, sobre todo en Honduras y Costa Rica. Nos han informado de que han sido seguidos físicamente en sus países de exilio” aseguró.  Los expertos de la ONU llaman a la comunidad internacional a llevar a Nicaragua ante la Corte Internacional de Justicia de La Haya para que responda por su feroz represión contra los opositores. 

WWIII Enabled by Internal Revolution (audio) David Eells, 9/24/25 The man-child reformers are coming out of their tribulation wilderness, but at this time they lead the Church into their tribulation wilderness. Rev.12:5 And she was delivered of a son, a man child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and unto his throne. (Some have seen this in dreams thinking it to be a pre-trib rapture but it is not.) 6 And the woman (Church) fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they (The Man-child) may nourish her a thousand two hundred and threescore days. (That's 3 ½ years, just as Jesus nourished the woman, Israel, for 3 ½ years in their tribulation under the beast. So where is our wilderness going to come from? Probably 30+ years ago I shared that when the US divides Israel, the US would be divided at the New Madrid Fault Quakes. Brandon Biggs recently shared that he was shown: When the US and the world divide Israel, (which happened today on Sep 23, 2025) at the Abrahamic Accord there are three days until the New Madrid divides the U.S. going off on Sep 26th. I and others told President Trump of this prophecy so he and the U.S. abstained so the New Madrid punishment will not come now. I was previously shown that the New Madrid would go off when the Man-child reformers are anointed at their spiritual resurrection to the throne. The only thing deleted, at this time, is the New Madrid quakes, for God is true to His Word. The restoration begins now and the Bride is prepared for the Man-child reformers. In a vision, I was standing before Jesus who was marrying me, as a type of the Man-child body, to the Bride in heaven, with the Father watching from His throne when I saw a huge room next to us with the 144,000 Man-child body there. This was all in type when Jesus the Man-child sowed the word in the body of those John the Baptist said was the bride. This is according to Mat 13, the parable of the Sower. This is the time the Man-child reformers are caught up to the throne. The Bride is in all white and submitted to the Lord. And the Woman Church is led by the Man-child into the wilderness tribulation when the world is divided. Rev.6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, Come. 2 And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. (Jesus in the Man-child reformers conquering His enemies.) 3 And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, Come. 4 And another horse came forth, a red horse: and to him that sat thereon it was given to take peace from the earth, and that they should slay one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. (Notice that when Jesus comes in the Man-child Body he starts conquering the Beast of all nations with war.)   Marie Kelton – 9-1-25 (David's notes in red) I had a vision before the heavenly one of sitting at the Sequoia museum by the hill where the Native Americans are buried. (Death is about to come to the new native Americans.) It was sunny. I was sitting next to the Lord on a bench, and He had a Bible in His hand. I looked over and was reading it with Him. As I was reading, I said the name Abraham. I knew we were reading about Abraham. (I thought it fit with the Abrahamic Accord just now.) (Dividing Israel with the Palestinians on Sep 23, 2025, the Abrahamic Accord will bring death to Americans and the world. We have heard from the Alliance that there will be a fake WWIII. The nations will pull out their weapons as if to go to war with each other but will instead jump on the D.S.. I felt a long time ago that the D.S. would then turn this fake WWIII into a real WWlll. This is now happening; pay attention.)   Mena Lee Grebin - 01/29/2014 (David's notes in red) At 2:41 this morning, the Lord Jesus came to me. He said, “Death to the finances”. He then said, “A recession behind the recession”. (We have been told in dreams and visions for years there would be a recession followed by a short period of calm and then much worse collapse.) I asked, “Lord, what are You talking about?” He continued, “Tell My children that a recession is coming behind the recession. Many companies will close; small businesses will crumble and more jobs will be lost”. A calendar appeared in front of me, with the last four months of the year listed (i.e. September through December). (This is the period of the initial collapse, not the duration of the collapse which will continue for years.) I then saw a rider on a black horse ride across the pages. I said, “Lord, You said death to the finances; the rider on the black horse means death!” The Lord responded, “No, daughter, that is the rider on the pale horse”. I thought to myself, “What was the black horse again?” Then the Holy Spirit interjected, “A days wages for a loaf of bread!” (If the black horse rides in the last third of a year, when do the white horse Man-child and red horse war ride? The answer would be at the beginning of that. We must abide in Christ for His provision, which has already been prepared.) The presence of the Lord grew stronger and stronger on me. I felt completely paralyzed. I said, “Lord, if this is You giving this to me, I need a scripture to back up what You are saying”. Then, I heard loud and clear, “Psalm 9”. I started to cry, “Lord, You're showing me the end of the year! That means we will be here! Lord, when are You coming to get us? (Mena believed in a pre-trib rapture, so this was a surprise to her. This is given to the pre-tribbers to help prepare them for the times to come.) It's getting so bad here. Please help us to endure”. The Lord responded with a calming voice. He said, “Soon, My daughter. Very, very soon. Do not be afraid. Tell My children they MUST put their trust in Me, not the government, jobs, bank accounts, stocks, public assistance or retirement. These things will fail them! Only I will see them through. Persecution will increase and the time will come when many will go underground, but only for a very short season. (And then ...) I am coming!”   Saints, Psalm 9 is a psalm of judgment on the nations. (It is a psalm of tribulation.) It is also a psalm of refuge and protection for those who trust Him. I got up to read it as soon as the presence of God lifted enough for me to move. The title of the psalm in the NLT is “Death of a Son”. I thought this was interesting. I was not familiar with the psalm and did not memorize it; therefore, it was shocking to find out what it spoke of. I want to encourage everyone to read this scripture. It tells what is ahead. I don't know if the Lord did this in contrary to the State of the Union address last night (I didn't watch it because my mind can't comprehend habitual liars) or if it's just time for judgment to be executed upon this nation. I don't know; maybe both. But I was told to share this with the body of Christ. We must prepare. Please share.   “Chaos Is Coming” Mena Lee Grebin - 06/27/2016 (David's notes in red) At 1:45 AM this morning, I received a visitation from the Lord. I first found myself at a press conference. The conference contained about 50 people. We were all sitting at long tables in horizontal rows. I was located at the second seat in the last row, on the right. I saw Donald Trump sitting among the people; he was the only person in the crowd I recognized from behind. I only saw everyone's back from my view. In the front, I saw Obama pacing the floor. He seemed very agitated. He started saying, “They're pushing me ... they're pushing me to cause drama!” He then walked over to a man seated three rows ahead of me. Obama looked at the man and said, “Kevin, they're pushing me to give them what they deserve! I will give them the chaos that they deserve!” The man, who seemed to go by the name “Kevin”, frantically grabbed his notepad and began to write on it. It was then that I looked at Obama's forehead and noticed that there was writing on it. It looked as though someone had taken a black Sharpie and written across his forehead; it said, “Chaos is coming”. (Internal rebellion and pandemic with external war?) The scene changed and I next found myself in a room. Ahead of me, about 30 feet, stood Jesus. He was clothed in a simple white robe that illuminated a soft white glow. His face was so clear, clearer than I had ever seen it in all the years He's visited me. It was like I zoomed in on His face. I studied His thick, dark-brown hair that rested on His shoulders, and the fullness of His beard. The expression on His face was that of sadness, yet stern. I noticed that there were tears streaming from His left eye. Within each tear, there was a fetus. (Their vax is causing many still births.) The Lord spoke to me, but without moving His lips. He said, “They are constantly stealing the life that I have given”. He paused for a moment, then continued, “There are those who are even unaware of their murder. (Some are still taking it.) Doctors have convinced some that this is their only choice -- that the child is deformed, or will be born with abnormalities, so they steal the life that I have given”. I noticed that angels began to stand in formation behind Jesus. They were tall; between nine and 10 feet in height. They were all golden -- clothes, body and hair. There were 14 of them. I inquired about the position they were taking. Jesus responded, “They are taking their positions for the 21 judgments, for they are about to begin. Time is short. I will not delay ... I will not delay ... I will not delay! My Bride is preparing herself and I will soon call her to me”. (And the Bride is mature; taken from the Church but is not the Church as in Esther, Song of Solomon, Psalm 45, etc.) I thought to myself, “But there are only 14 angels”. The Key to the Timing of These Things: Then Jesus quickly reminded me that the first seven seals are opened by Him. (This sequence of events doesn't start until the first seal is opened by Jesus beginning the tribulation.) Jesus then looked at me and with a stern voice said, “Within three to six months (After the seal is opened), total chaos will envelop America and a pandemic will spread across the world”. He then gave me understanding that the two events are separate and I wasn't given a time frame for the pandemic. Mena had already received a dream of this same time period in the spring of 2014, which speaks of the economic collapse. The Lord woke her up at about 2:45 AM, saying, “Death to the finances!” He said it so strongly it startled her. She asked, “Death to the finances?” Then the Lord said, “A recession within a recession is coming”. Then He showed her a vision of the rider on a black horse. He was riding across a calendar and started in September (Beginning the death of finances) and rode through December. She asked the Lord, “Is it for this year (2014)?” He answered, “No”. Then He continued, “Small businesses will fail. Those who depend on the government to sustain them will fail. The housing market is going to crash again. I want you to warn the people. (Wilderness) Tell them what is coming because those who are in Me will be sustained, but not everyone who says they belong to Me belongs to Me”. When the economy collapses, the Man-child reformers bring the revival through the Bride, as a repeat of history. I began to pray for the Bride. I prayed for wisdom and boldness. The Lord then spoke and said, “Psalm 12 for the chosen, for the obedient and for the faithful”. This is a warning for the Church, the Bride and the nation. We need to prepare spiritually and physically for what's about to be unleashed. David: Now I want to share these verses with you and a revelation (from UBM livestream 9/19/25 The Bride Exalted and Full of Light) {Jer.6:10} To whom shall I speak and testify, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of Jehovah is become unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it. {11} Therefore I am full of the wrath of Jehovah; I am weary with holding in: pour it out upon the children in the street, and upon the assembly of young men together; for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days. {12} And their houses shall be turned unto others, their fields and their wives together; for I will stretch out my hand upon the inhabitants of the land, saith Jehovah. {13} For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely. {14} They have healed also the hurt of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace. (Like Now) {15} Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall; at the time that I visit them (meaning: In the Man-child.) they shall be cast down, saith Jehovah. (What could cause this wilderness the Church is about to enter? Earthquakes, economic collapse, democratic saboteurs and assassins in the government and from the invaders, bringing down the grid before Tesla energy is fully up, persecution of Christians, plague, food shortage, war, etc. After Jesus comes in the Man-child reformers by Word and Spirit will come war. Rev.6:2 And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. (Jesus in the Man-child reformers anointed)... 4 And another horse came forth, a red horse: and to him that sat thereon it was given to take peace from the earth, and that they should slay one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. I asked the Lord when this World War would come and He said, “November.”) Then I got a confirmation. Brandon Biggs saw that Putin will call President Trump's bluff, but Putin is not bluffing; he is creating strong alliances for this major war ahead. war  I then asked Brandon if he knew when this war would happen, and he said, November. I said to him, “Thats my confirmation.” Brandon: So in the last two videos, I saw this right here. He's holding his cards close to him today. That's Putin as he's in this meeting (in Alaska). He doesn't trust no one. He doesn't trust him and he doesn't trust what's being said. It's a game. I hear, “Play the game, buy time. They want the whole thing. (The Russians don't want to share the world.) I just have to outlast you.” It's almost like you're playing poker, you're playing cards. You call my bluff. You all hear what I'm saying? You call my bluff. It's like, you're gonna move, you're gonna move things and you're gonna try to do things in this poker game on Friday. You hold your cards close, and you're playing; you're calling my bluff. That's what the Lord says. “You call my bluff.” It's just a card game. But the Lord warned me that Putin is not bluffing. Remember, I've tried to tell you all, Putin is not bluffing, but he will call Trump on what he calls his bluff of what Trump's saying; he's gonna do in the meetings ahead. Trump is strongarming the bear. The Lord said, “Handle the bear with care because Putin is not bluffing.” What he's doing in the background with Kim Jong Un, Cuba, Venezuela, he's creating alliances, strong alliances for a major war ahead. Remember this. The enemy within should be conquered before that war. Dumitru Duduman dreamed that the US would be busy with internal rebellion when Russia would use this to strike from without. In Dumitru Duduman's revelation below, he shares how Russia will hit the US when it is distracted with an internal revolution (As the Democrats are declaring now.) These communists have alliances with the American communists and Chinese communists.). Here is a portion of Dumitru's revelation called:   Russians Bomb the United States! The light surrounded me. Out of the light I heard the same voice (that was with me in jail and in my house in Italy). It said, "Dumitru, why are you so despaired?" I said, "Why did you punish me? What did I do that was so rotten that you brought me to the United States? I have nowhere to lie my head down upon. I can't understand anybody". He said, "Dumitru, didn't I tell you that I am here with you also? I brought you here to this country because this country will burn". "Then why did you bring me here to burn? Why didn't you let me die in my own country?" "Dumitru, have patience, and I will tell you. Get beside me". … I got beside the angel. He showed me all of California. He showed me all the cities of California. Then he showed me Las Vegas. "You see what I have shown you. This is Sodom and Gomorrah. In one day it will burn". He said, "Its sin has reached the Holy One". He showed me another great city. He said, "Do you know what city this is?" I said, "No". He said, "This is New York City. This is Sodom and Gomorrah. In one day it will burn". He showed me Florida. He said, "This is Florida. This is Sodom and Gomorrah. In one day it will burn". He didn't let me say a word until he brought me back to the place we had left. He said, "Now, Dumitru, you can talk to me". He said, "I brought you to this country, Dumitru. I want to wake up a lot of people. I love this country. I love the people. I want to save them. America will burn". And I said, "How can I save them? I can't even speak their language. Who knows me here? How will they call me?" He said, "Don't worry. I will be ahead of you. I will make great healings amongst the American people. You will go to television stations, radio stations, and churches. (And He did) Tell them everything I tell you. Don't hide anything. If you try to hide anything, I will punish you. America will burn". I said, "How will America burn? It is so powerful". He said, "The Russian spies have discovered where the most powerful nuclear missiles are in America. "It will start with the world calling for 'peace, peace'. (Like now.) Then there will be an internal revolution in America, started by the Communists. (Like now.) Some of the people will start fighting against the government. (Like now.) The government will be busy with internal problems. Then, from the oceans, Russia, Cuba, Nicaragua, Central America, Mexico, and two other countries (which I cannot remember) will attack! The Russians will bombard the nuclear missile silos in America. America will burn". I said, "What will you do with the church?" He said, "The church has left me". I said, "How? Don't you have people here?" He said, "People honor people. The honor that should be given to God, they give to other people. Americans think high of themselves. They say, 'I work', but they don't. In the church there is divorce. In the church there is adultery and fornication. In the church there is sodomy. In the church there is abortion and all kinds of sin. Jesus Christ doesn't live in sin. He lives in HOLINESS. I brought you here so you could cry out loud. Don't be afraid. I am with you. Tell them to stop sinning. God never stops forgiving. Tell them to repent. He will forgive them. Tell them to start preparing themselves so I can save them in the day of trouble". Brothers, these aren't fairy tales. I didn't come here to ask you for money. I didn't ask God for money. I came here to tell you the message of God. If you ask me, God loves you. That's what the angel of God told me. "Whoever I love, I want to wake up. I will put on their hearts to call you. Don't hide anything, or I will punish you". So stop sinning and repent. He will forgive us, and we will have salvation. I said, "How will you save the church if America will burn?" He said, "Tell them as I tell you. As he saved the three young men from the oven of fire and Daniel from the mouth of the lion, that is how I will save them. Tell them to stop sinning and repent. I have blessed this country because of the Jews that are here. I have seven million Jews here. (more now) They haven't tasted war or persecution. God blessed them more than anyone else. Instead of thanking God, they started sinning and doing wickedly. Their sins have reached the Holy One. God will punish them with fire". Israel doesn't recognize the Messiah because they place their trust on the power of the Jews in America. When God will hit America, all the nations will be terrified. God will raise up China, Japan, and many other nations, and they will beat the Russians. They will push them back to the gates of Paris. There they will make a peace treaty, but they will make the Russians their leader. All the nations with the Russians as their leader will go against Israel. It's not that they want to; God makes them. Israel doesn't have the help of the Jews in America anymore. In their terror, when they see what is coming, they call upon the Messiah. The Messiah will come to help Israel. Then the Church of God will meet him in the clouds". (1 Thes 4:16) Are you ready to meet Jesus Christ? Are your wedding clothes clean? If there are still spots on the clothes of your soul, then the blood of Jesus Christ still has power to cleanse sins. Jesus Christ will live with the church on the Mount of Olives. He himself will fight against all the nations. I said, "If you are the angel of God, everything you tell me has to be written in the Bible. If it is not, then I can't tell the Americans". "Tell them to read Jeremiah 51:8-15. He named it THE MYSTERY BABYLON, THE GREAT ADULTERESS. Also read Revelations Chapter 18, the whole chapter. There it says clearly what will happen to America". "Why did He name it THE MYSTERY BABYLON?" "Tell them because all the nations of the world immigrated into America, and America accepted them. America accepted Buddha, the Devil Church, the Sodomite church, the Mormon Church, and all kinds of wickedness. America was a Christian nation. Instead of stopping them, they went after their gods. Because of this, He named them THE MYSTERY BABYLON…   The Eagle and the Serpents Michael Boldea (notes in red) (The Angel said, "This has been revealed to you, that you may know, the first bite has been, the second is yet to come, and the third will be its destruction".) Psalm 34:7-8, "The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him". Upon my return to the United States in late August, I had a very vivid and troubling dream. I dreamt I was walking through a sparsely wooded forest, and suddenly my attention was drawn to an eagle (the U.S.) flying high above the tree line. It was a beautiful sight to behold as the eagle rode the thermals, flying in slow lazy arks across the blue sky. I began to quicken my pace, and keep up with the eagle's flight, all the while keeping an eye on it, noticing that it was slowly descending toward the earth. (Becoming more corrupt)  I followed it for a long time, its descend not being sudden but very gradual. Finally I came upon a small clearing, where there were no trees, just some bushes on the edges of the green grass. The eagle landed in the clearing, and began to look around not seeming to notice me. As I began to wonder what the relevance of this was, a man dressed in white, hands clasped in front of him, appeared beside me, and said, "Be patient, in due time you will see the purpose". I was silent as I watched the eagle, and was beginning to grow somewhat impatient, when suddenly (9/11 happened suddenly), it seemed out of nowhere a brown snake (the Muslims are a brown people and the Nazis wore brown shirts) lunged at the eagle, and bit down on its left wing. (In effect, 9/11 devastated the left wing and brought about a short-lived swing to the right as this nation prayed out to their God to save them.) The snake's strike was very quick and very precise. The eagle reacted without delay, clawing and pecking at the snake cutting deep wounds in its underbelly, trying to defend itself and ward off the serpent. (USA, the great eagle of Babylon, is still over there pecking away at their enemies.) Just as it seemed the eagle was winning the battle, and the serpent was retreating, another serpent appeared, red and black diagonal stripes covering its body. (Red and white were the 0bama's colors of choice for the election victory speech. Why red and black? Obama's associate for 20 years and mentor was Bill Ayers, who is an unrepentant terrorist, anarchist and Marxist who bombed his own country to bring about "change", which is Obama's chief motto. Red and black are the colors of anarchists, socialists, left-wingers, communists, etc. Ayers told the New York Times on 9/11/01, "I don't regret setting bombs... I feel we didn't do enough".)  This serpent without hesitation struck out at the eagle's right wing, biting down, and refusing to release. (Many strikes have come from the left, false flags, plagues, assassinations, etc. These Satanists have never slowed down.) After a momentary tug of war the serpent tore off flesh and feathers, leaving a large wound on the eagle's right wing. (Obama is purely a left-wing socialist who will use anything to tear a huge wound in the religious right of this land. Cheri Watson saw a vision of the Statue of Liberty sliced in two by a huge knife from right to left and the top half, or government, began to slide to the left and fall into the water. A line of leftist governments did much damage that President Trump has worked to reverse.) The second bite was much worse than the first, and for an instant the eagle was stunned. Then a serpent much larger than the previous two, made up of many colors,(Leftist revolutionaries internally join with many nations led by Russia and China) slithered toward the eagle, opened its jaws and lunged, taking the whole of the eagle's head in its mouth before biting down. (The enemies take down the government and devastate the U.S. which brings revival.) The serpents retreated and the man (Jesus) who had been standing beside me, walked to the eagle, knelt down, picked it up, and held it in his cupped hands. The look of grief on his face was beyond any I have seen in my life. Just seeing the look on the man's face broke your heart. The man continued to look down at the eagle, and with a pained voice said, "The true tragedy, is that at any moment it could have sought the safety of the above, it could have soared toward the heavens and would have found its protection. This has been revealed to you, that you may know, the first bite has been (9/11), the second is yet to come (leftist governments), and the third will be its destruction". (Fall of the U.S. into wilderness tribulation.)   An Angry Bear Awakens Excerpt from Dumitru Duduman's Prophecies April 1997 I knelt by my bed to pray, as I do every night before going to sleep. After finishing my prayer, I opened my eyes, but I was no longer in my room. Instead, I found myself in a forest. I looked around, and to my right I saw a man dressed in white who pointed his finger and said, "See and remember". It took me a while to find what he was pointing at. It was a small bear who seemed half dead lying on the ground. As I continued to watch this bear, it began to breathe deeper. With every passing minute it seemed to revive itself, and, as I watched, it also became angrier. It then began to grow. Soon it was larger than the forest floor, and as it grew larger, it continued to become angrier. It then began to paw the ground, so that when its paw would hit the ground, the earth would shudder. The bear continued to devastate all that stood in its path until it came upon some men with sticks trying to fend it off. (Don't pay any attention to the lies, they have won this war in Ukraine but the DS needs a bigger war that hurts the US. The Russians have taken down the Nazi's, the bio-labs, the organ labs, the tunnels and dungeons with the captive children, and the evidence of DS crimes, etc.) By this time the bear had grown so large that it simply crushed the men underfoot and continued its rampage. I was stunned by what I saw and asked the man standing beside me, "What does this mean?" "At first they thought the great bear was dead,” the man said. (If you listen to MSM.) "As it will begin to stir once again, they will consider it harmless. Suddenly, it will grow strong once more with purpose and violence. (They have made tremendous advances in weaponry.) God will blind the eyes of those that continue to trample on the sacrifice of Christ's blood, until the day the bear will strike swiftly. This day will catch them unprepared, and it will be just as you saw". The man then said, "Tell my people the days are numbered and the sentence has been passed. If they will seek My face and walk in righteousness before Me, I will open their eyes that they may see the danger approach. If they only look to the approaching danger, they, too, will be caught up and trampled underfoot. Only in righteousness will they find safety". Suddenly, I was once again by myself in my room, on my knees, with sweat covering my face. Now let me share a few articles that have been in the recent news:   Artic Frost See: Grassley-Artic Frost BREAKING: Senator Chuck Grassley just announced that an FBI whistleblower revealed to him an FBI project called "Artic Frost" that targeted groups like Charlie Kirk's TPUSA and all republicans and their establihments! This is a BOMBSHELL! He says that they are releasing those documents TODAY! "In total, 92 Republican targets, including Republican groups and Republican linked individuals, were placed under investigative scope of Arctic Frost." (Obviously leftists are at the bottom of this.) "On that political list was one of Charlie Kirk‘s groups, Turning Point USA. In other words, Arctic Frost wasn‘t just a case to politically investigate Trump." "It was the vehicle by which partisan FBI agents and Department of Justice prosecutors could achieve their partisan ends and improperly investigate the entire Republican political apparatus." "So, today Senator Johnson and I are making these records public for the entire country to see. I hope a lot of people are interested in seeing what government can do when various agencies have a political agenda." This isn't law enforcement. This is persecution. Arctic Frost revived the general warrants our Founders outlawed in the 4th Amendment. It weaponized the DOJ and FBI to punish political enemies, chill free speech, and destroy trust in government.   "Trump Faces World War III As Armed American Socialists Proclaim “The Revolution Is Here”" https://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=259670 September 20, 2025, By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers.  Shown in part… A forewarning new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting President Putin revealed yesterday: “Russia's military industry has enjoyed remarkable growth over the past two years...For certain types of weapons and some products, our production has increased not by a few percentage points, but almost 30-fold”, says this revelation was followed by President Donald Trump proclaiming about the Russia-Ukraine conflict: “We are actually making money on that war”—and was a proclamation joined by NATO-American Ambassador Matthew Whitaker declaring: “President Trump is going to continue to find the leverage and to find the conditions where he can bring both sides and mediate a resolution, but he's not going to set the conditions...Both sides are going to have to agree to a peace deal”. Contributing to the remarkable growth of the Russian military industrial complex, this report notes, Bloomberg revealed: “Indian refiners intend to continue purchasing Russian crude to meet rising fuel demand, even as New Delhi restarts trade talks with the US for a bilateral deal”—a revelation joined by the German Economic Institute announcing: “EU member states imported $10.2 billion worth of Russian goods in the first three months of 2025 alone”. The EU member states graciously contributing billions-of-dollars to support the Russian military industrial complex, this report continues, completely surround the Russian enclave Kaliningrad on the Baltic Sea—… “In a vote that exposed the dark side of the majority of Democrats, the House on Friday passed a resolution honoring slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk and rejecting the political violence of recent years...The vote was 310-58, with 95 Democrats joining all 215 Republicans in voting yes on the nonbinding resolution...The 58 no votes all came from Democrats, but another 38 Democrats voted present (would not take an open side) and another 22 Democrats did not vote...In other words, 118 Democrats in Congress refused to support the resolution”… As President Trump faces the fake news socialist narrative clamoring for World War III, this report concludes, he also faces growing leftists protests caused by the fake news socialist narrative branding him a fascist, and it was just warned: “The Socialist Rifle Association has 52 local chapters across 33 U.S. states, and claims to have 10,000 members...Considering they are the armed wing of the anti-American revolution, people should be more concerned about what is going on with the growing militant left...Earlier this year, the Democratic Socialist of America held a meeting to debate merging with the SRA, and afterward, many DSA members went online to voice their opinions about the decision not to do it...Regardless, the discourse was still highly alarming...Some DSA members tweeted that the revolution is here”.   Official Warnings: Threat to Large Crowds or Big Events, Multi-City Attack, Hospitals Targeted Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Gm5jd4wra9g Get Ready! NCTC Warns of Threat to Large Crowds or Big Events, Multi-City Attack, Hospitals Targeted Posted By: George Eaton - Sep 20, 2025 – in part https://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=259682 The U.S. National Counterterrorism Center said on Friday that recent calls by al Qaeda for attacks against the United States showed the group's enduring threat to the country. A report by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security issued late last year that evaluated different types of threats to the United States, said al Qaeda was committed to striking the U.S. and had "reinvigorated its outreach" to Western audiences. https://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=259690   World War III Is on the Horizon: As we all saw on the news, the first direct clash between NATO and Russia has already happened. This is how world wars begin—small sparks in places most Americans can't even find on a map. What's unfolding isn't a misunderstanding, and it sure isn't a string of “accidents.” It is deliberate. A methodical test. A calculated push to measure NATO's reflexes, its unity, its red lines—driven by Russia and China, both determined to corner the West until one mistake means annihilation... Intelligence whispers say China is preparing something massive. The war for Taiwan is already alive inside Beijing's planning rooms. This won't be a small conflict. The plan is simultaneous, far-reaching, meant to blind and cripple not only Taiwan but the entire U.S. Indo-Pacific command. They're not aiming only at Taipei. They're aiming straight into INDOPACOM itself—leadership, infrastructure, defenses—one lightning strike to take it all down. Beijing knows hesitation equals defeat. They won't hesitate. Meanwhile, Russia has wrapped up massive military drills—simulating missile strikes against NATO. This isn't theater. It's rehearsal. Each maneuver a message: “We are ready. Are you?” Putin doesn't bluff when he warns NATO won't intimidate Russia. (Truly they are no threat to Russia) The headlines grow darker every day...“Trump warns Ukraine could ignite a global war.” UK officials whisper that the West could collapse within days if nuclear war ignites. NATO generals warn the clock is running out—that war could come next month. These aren't fringe ravings. These are voices from the rooms where nuclear options are weighed. China and Russia aren't moving separately. They're moving in sync. Russia pushes NATO's borders while China gets ready to strike across the Pacific. Together they stretch the West thin, forcing it to fight in two theaters at once... Washington, arrogant and blind, still thinks it can dictate terms to both adversaries. But the truth is brutal. America no longer holds military or industrial supremacy. Its defense factories can barely keep up. Its arsenals are drained into Ukraine. Its people are fractured, distracted, unready for the storm that's gathering. … Do not imagine this will be a slow buildup like past wars. There will be no declaration. World War III will erupt with a flash, with a mushroom cloud. With satellites blinded, command centers silenced, and cities burning before dawn. And once the fire starts, it will not be contained. The fantasy of a “limited” nuclear war is the deadliest lie of all. Once the first strike lands, the chain is unbreakable. The world's armies are preparing for a war... …Face what's coming. Because World War III isn't far off anymore—it's already here, waiting for the single spark that will paint the sky red. (excerpts)       

Además de reprimir duramente a las voces críticas en Nicaragua, el gobierno autoritario de Daniel Ortega y Rosario Murillo extiende su represión en el extranjero, según indica un informe de Naciones Unidas. En un nuevo informe, tres expertos en derechos humanos de Naciones Unidas denuncian los múltiples métodos del gobierno de Nicaragua para callar a los opositores exiliados. Reed Brody es uno de los autores del informe e indica que “hay 452 personas que se han visto despojadas de la nacionalidad nicaragüense y de la prohibición de volver o de entrar en Nicaragua, hay por lo menos 300 casos -documentados-, pero seguramente hay miles de personas que han querido volver a Nicaragua, pero que se les ha negado la entrada en el aeropuerto o por la compañía de aviación”. Brody cuenta también que a muchas personas, probablemente a centenares o miles, le han rechazado la renovación de su pasaporte. Además, “hay una vigilancia digital muy intensa que cubre también a los nicaragüenses en el exterior, hay amenazas y un castigo a familiares que permanecen en Nicaragua”, indicó.  En el informe, los expertos han documentado y denunciado hostigamiento y violencia física en el extranjero, que en ocasiones ha llegado hasta Europa. “El caso más impactante fue el 19 de junio de este año, el asesinato del mayor Roberto Sancán, una voz muy crítica del gobierno”, relató Brody. La fiscalía en Costa Rica está investigando el caso, según el abogado, aclarando que “están privilegiando la pista de un asesinato por encargo. Todavía no podemos concluir nada, pero su muerte subrayó una realidad escalofriante, que es incluso más allá de las fronteras de Nicaragua, los opositores al gobierno de Daniel Ortega y Rosario Murillo no se sienten seguros”, denunció. De acuerdo con los autores del informe existen cinco casos más de opositores que han sido atacados físicamente fuera de Nicaragua. “Hemos recibido denuncias en Bélgica, en España, sobre todo en Honduras y Costa Rica. Nos han informado de que han sido seguidos físicamente en sus países de exilio” aseguró.  Los expertos de la ONU llaman a la comunidad internacional a llevar a Nicaragua ante la Corte Internacional de Justicia de La Haya para que responda por su feroz represión contra los opositores.

Heineken slokt behoorlijk wat belangen van buitenlandse brouwerijen op. Het geeft miljarden uit om te groeien in Midden-Amerika. Om precies te zijn Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica en Panama. In dat laatste land krijgen ze zelfs de volledige eigendom van een brouwerij in handen.Volgens Heineken kopen ze 'voor een goede prijs' belangen in een groeimarkt. We kijken deze aflevering of het ook echt zo'n goede deal is. En we bespreken wat dit met het aandeel doet. Een aandeel dat het al langer niet echt lekker doet. Wordt de kater voor aandeelhouders minder? Hebben we het ook over een andere miljardendeal, de overtreffende trap. Nvidia dat even 100 miljard dollar uittrekt om te investeren in OpenAI. Waar het óók een belang in de ChatGPT-maker voor terugkrijgt.Een teleurstelling komt ook voorbij, namelijk een omzetwaarschuwing van ASM. Al verpakt de chipmachinemaker die met goed nieuws.

They were the defending champs… and they were just getting started. After a draft in 1974 that would eventually produce 5 Hall of Famers… names like Lambert, Swann, Stallworth, Shell and Webster… the Steelers were ready to repeat as champions… and while the 2nd year players began to come into their own in '75, the team was led by Quarterback Terry Bradshaw, who 5 years after being the #1 overall pick out of Louisiana Tech, was finally ready to claim the role as QB1 without having to look over his shoulder.  And on the defensive side of things… the Steel Curtain was ready to wreak havoc on the opposing quarterbacks throughout the NFL. LC Greenwood, Ernie Holmes, Dwight White and the man on the cover of the September 22, 1975 issue of Sports Illustrated, Mean Joe Greene were laying the foundation for a Steelers dynasty… 4 Super Bowl wins in 6 years!  The NFL's first two-time Defensive Player of the Year winner, Joe Greene was everything you wanted in a leader… tough, driven, disciplined, and in this case, yes, a little mean. His years in Pittsburgh would end with a gold jacket in Canton and a legacy that is second to none in the Steel City, or anywhere for that matter. Alex Kozora is someone who appreciates Mean Joe and the Steelers and has been covering the team for over a decade as one of the hosts on The Terrible Podcast, a Steelers podcast for Pittsburgh Steelers fans where he and Dave Bryan discuss the goings on of one of the most successful franchises in the NFL. But that wasn't always the case. Prior to Chuck Noll's and Mean Joe's arrival in 1969, the Steelers had been to one playoff game in their 37 years in the NFL. But in 1972, that all changed… David Orochena is a writer for www.steelersdepot.com and contributor to The Terrible Podcast and he tells us that the “Immaculate Reception” was much more than just the Steelers winning their first ever playoff game. It was a defining moment for the sports structure of Pittsburgh. A week after Franco Harris caught the ball out of midair off a deflection, Roberto Clemente was tragically killed in a plane crash helping bring aid to an earthquake-ravaged Nicaragua. The death of a man who symbolized Pittsburgh and the Pirates completely devastated the city and according to Orochena, it was the Steelers that helped fill that void going forward. It's much more than just the X's & O's of professional football. It's a chat with two guys who know the ins and outs of a franchise that were the laughing stock of the NFL for decades… and turned it around in the mid 70's to become the envy of every organization in the league. Alex and David tell us about how Terry Bradshaw finally won the QB job for good in '75, how the Terrible Towel came to be and inspired a couple of guys years later to start a Terrible Podcast… and how one play changed the course of the Steelers franchise and how the Steel Curtain came to symbolize a team on it's way glory. They dominated and kicked tail and didn't care who got in their way… Was it nice? No… it was mean… Mean Joe Greene and the 1975 Steelers on the Past Our Prime podcast…  Listen to both Past Our Prime and The Terrible Podcast wherever you get your podcasts and please leave a review and a 5-star rating if you desire.

Nicaragua y Cuba fueron los primeros países de América Latina que lo reconocieron. A partir de ese año le siguieron todas las naciones sudamericanas, a excepción de Panamá que hoy en día no reconoce la existencia de un Estado palestino. En el contexto de un nuevo mapa político que surgirá tras la 80 Asamblea General de la ONU cuando Francia, Reino Unido y otras naciones lo reconozcan, la causa palestina es cuestionada por algunos aliados latinoamericanos del Estado palestino.  Prevista entre el próximo 23 y 29 de septiembre, la 80 Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas será un momento histórico que marcará la política internacional de Medio Oriente cuando unos diez países reconocerán el estado de Palestina: Francia, Andorra, Australia, Bélgica, Canadá, Luxemburgo, Portugal, Malta, Reino Unido y San Marino. Con esta acción serán 156 de 193 países en el mundo que lo reconocerán, un proceso que comenzó en noviembre de 1988 cuando el Consejo Nacional Palestino proclamó el Estado de Palestina desde el exilio, en Argelia. En ese año fueron 80 países, la mayoría de África y Asia que le otorgaron el reconocimiento. Entre ellos, había sólo dos latinoamericanos: Cuba y Nicaragua. Es recién, en 2005, que comenzó el reconocimiento, en cadena, por otras naciones sudamericanas empezando por Paraguay. Al día de hoy, el único fuera de la lista es Panamá. A diferencia de Europa, el apoyo de Latinoamérica a la causa palestina surgió en bloque porque recuerda el pasado colonial, una “fibra sensible en la historia del continente” de acuerdo con el  analista político Jorge Arias, director de la consultora Polilat. “Siempre estamos del lado de los débiles, del que nos consideramos nosotros mismos. Creo que fundamentalmente es una tradición latinoamericano que se ha ido acentuando: las cumbres latinoamericanas, las coordinaciones para los votos en las Naciones Unidas, eso ha sido generando una simpatía con la causa palestina, una causa de extrema debilidad frente al poderío militar israelí”, pero también influye el “poco interés” de Israel por América Latina, de acuerdo con el analista. A favor y en contra En el mapa politico actual no todo es unidad de cara a la nueva ola de reconocimientos del Estado palestino. Mientras la mayoría de los países latinos continúa con una postura de apoyo, mención especial a Chile, con la mayor diáspora palestina fuera de medio oriente, otros, como El Salvador, Guatemala, Argentina y Paraguay, quedan en una posición incómoda, con gobiernos expresamente alineados con Estados Unidos e Israel y dispuestos a votar en contra de apoyar la solución de los dos estados, como lo hicieron recientemente Argentina y Paraguay en la ONU. “Los países en general tratan de no tomar posiciones extremas coyunturales”, estima Arias. En el caso de El Salvador, su presidente, Nayib Bukele “que tiene un gobierno con una amplia mayoría parlamentaria, si él lo decidiera podría resolverlo”. “En el caso de Argentina me parece más complejo porque Javier Milei no tiene mayoría parlamentaria ni la va a tener aún cuando tenga un éxito contundente en las próximas elecciones en ese tipo de movidas”, explicó. En junio de 2025, Milei visitó Israel y en un discurso pronunciado en la Kneset, el Parlamento de ese país, apoyó la manera en que el primer ministro Benjamín Netanyahu despliega su ejército en la Franja de Gaza. Este 17 de septiembre, en Paraguay, Milei dijo, en referencia a este conflicto en Medio Oriente, que  “no son muchos los países que se plantan firmes del lado del bien y de la verdad en tiempos [en los que] gran parte de la comunidad internacional tiene la brújula moral desviada”. Jorge Arias concluye que es posible que desde Latinoamérica se emitan comunicados de adhesión o repudio en términos diplomáticos, pero difícilmente se tomarán medidas irreversibles contra el reconocimiento del Estado palesitno.

Interview with David Londoño, President & CEO of Mineros SAOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/mineros-sa-tsxmsa-cash-rich-gold-miner-eyes-expansion-7128Recording date: 15th September 2025American gold mining, combining exceptional financial performance with an aggressive expansion strategy across Colombia, Nicaragua, and Chile. The company reports record revenues, earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA while maintaining over $100 million in cash, providing substantial financial flexibility for growth initiatives without requiring external financing.The company's flagship Porvenir project in Nicaragua has achieved significant engineering optimization, with preliminary feasibility studies reducing initial capital requirements from over $250 million to the mid-$100 millions. The project features a scalable 2,000 tons per day processing plant expandable to 5,000 TPD capacity, targeting 4-5 grams per ton gold grades with valuable byproduct credits from copper, silver, and zinc. Recent exploration success around the main deposit has identified additional mineralization that could accelerate expansion timelines and extend mine life.Operational expansion centers on a $45 million investment to increase the Hemco plant capacity from 1,800 to 2,300 tons per day. This expansion leverages the company's unique relationship with artisanal miners, who provide both high-grade feed material and valuable geological intelligence. The capacity increase targets production growth from current levels of 120-130,000 ounces annually to 200,000 ounces, representing approximately 55% growth from Nicaragua operations alone.Mineros SA recently acquired the La Pepa exploration property in Chile for $40 million cash, adding 2 million ounces of gold resources at 0.56 grams per ton average grade. Located near Copiapó in an established mining district, the property benefits from existing infrastructure and experienced personnel. Management targets production within five years, supported by shallow, oxide-dominated mineralization suitable for heap leach processing.The company maintains its commitment to shareholder returns through a $30 million annual dividend policy while reinvesting excess cash flow into growth projects. Although the dividend yield has decreased from 10-15% to below 5% due to share price appreciation, the absolute payment remains consistent, demonstrating management's balanced approach to growth investment and shareholder returns in a strengthening gold price environment.View Mineros SA's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/mineros-saSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Earlier this year at the 2025 PCA Trade Show, Altadis unveiled a new ultra-premium cigar in their Montecristo line called M. What makes this special is a 20 year aged Ecuadorian Connecticut that is used for its wrapper. This special wrapper was acquired from David Perez of ASP in Nicaragua. The blend for the Montecristo M was developed by AJ Fernandez and Rafael Nodal using this wrapper at AJ's factory in Esteli, Nicaragua. Here is what Altadis had to say about the cigar: “Crafted by the legendary cigarmaker AJ Fernandez, the story of this smoke lies in a wrapper that has been carefully and beautifully aged for two decades. Aging a cigar's wrapper leaf, like a fine bourbon or wine, adds a tremendous amount of character and maturity to a smoke, heightening the tasting notes and taking the smoker on a journey far beyond what they have experienced from normal mass market offerings in the past. The Connecticut seed Ecuadorian leaf utilized for this project was cultivated and brought to life through the fifth-generation grower David Perez, resulting in a medium-bodied smoke that is uniquely proportioned to accentuate the subtle beauty of the wrapper.” Vitola: Toro Size: 6 x 52 Wrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut Binder: Nicaraguan Filler: Nicaraguan Country of Origin: Nicaragua Factory: Tabacalera AJ Fernandez Cigars de Nicaragua S.A.

Two recent court rulings impact the rights of more than one and a half million immigrants to legally live and work in the United States, including here in Minnesota. On Friday, a federal appeals court ruled the Trump Administration can end what's called humanitarian parole for Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela. But another program is still in legal limbo. Earlier this month, a federal court blocked the administration from ending Temporary Protected Status for Haitians and Venezuelans in the United States. Michele Garnett McKenzie is an immigration lawyer and co-executive director of The Advocates for Human Rights and shared the legal implications with Minnesota Now host Nina Moini. And David Policard founded the organization called VANSE to support Haitians in Minnesota and joined the program to talk about what he's hearing from immigrants on this status.

Where are you listening from?What happens when a professional chef decides to combine their culinary expertise with cannabis? Magic in the kitchen and a whole new approach to edibles.Adam Vandermay, Executive Chef and co-founder of Your Canna Chef, takes us behind the scenes of his cannabis culinary journey, revealing how his relationship with the plant evolved from casual use to intentional consumption. "I went from just getting high to using the plant with intent," Adam shares, highlighting a maturity many cannabis enthusiasts develop over time.The conversation dives deep into the art of cannabis cuisine, with Adam emphasizing precision over guesswork. His most valuable tip? Stop cooking with cannabis-infused oils as your base. Instead, use infusions as finishing elements—in sauces, glazes, and condiments—where you can control dosage with exactness. This approach eliminates the dreaded "mystery edible" problem where consumers don't know how potent their food will be. Beyond cooking techniques, Adam shares the remarkable story of how his culinary skills literally saved his life after hitting rock bottom. Following a difficult divorce, he traveled to Nicaragua with just $600 and rebuilt his life through cooking, eventually establishing a thriving private chef business. Today, that resilience and creativity power Your Canna Chef, where Adam hosts cooking classes and private dining experiences that showcase cannabis as a sophisticated culinary ingredient rather than just a way to get high.Ready to elevate your cannabis kitchen skills?

Episode Summary: Born out of both a DNA vision conference and the aftermath of Hurricane Mitch, the Nehemiah Center shows that real transformation requires more than relief—it demands a biblical worldview that shapes families, communities, and entire cultures. From creative outreach through sports and family activities to discipling over 100 families in a single year, their approach fosters reconciliation, integrity, and thriving communities. Their work with the indigenous Miskito people demonstrates how small acts of biblical living—like modeling honesty and refusing bribes—can spark lasting economic and social change.This special episode comes from DNA's 2025 Forum in Panama, where Luke and Tim sat down with Nehemiah Center leaders, Andy Baker and Daniel Borge, who are championing biblical worldview training in the beautiful nation of Nicaragua. Hear powerful stories of paradigm shifts, and how every believer can practically play a role in discipling their families, churches, communities, and even nations.Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)? Since 1997, DNA's mission has been to equip followers of Jesus around the globe with a biblical worldview, empowering them to build flourishing families, communities, and nations.

Ciudad Juarez au Mexique est considérée comme l'une des villes les plus violentes au monde. Plus de 10 000 assassinats y ont été recensés entre 2007 et 2011. Cela signifie qu'une génération d'enfants, souvent livrés à eux-mêmes, sans aucun repère ni perspectives, n'ont connu que la violence. Un reportage de Louise Kim. Ciudad Juárez s'est développée autour des maquiladoras, des usines à bas coût, qui ont attiré des milliers de travailleurs logés dans de petits appartements sans infrastructures sociales : ni écoles, ni parcs, ni hôpitaux. Les enfants grandissent souvent sans cadre parental, encadrés par des adultes extérieurs à leur famille, ce qui les expose très tôt au tabac, à l'alcool et aux stupéfiants. La combinaison de longues heures de travail pour les parents et de l'absence de protection conduit de nombreux adolescents à entrer en contact avec le crime organisé, où ils se sentent valorisés et intégrés, mais souvent au prix de la violence et de la criminalité. La situation se complique avec la violence sexuelle, qui touche des centaines d'enfants chaque année, souvent dans un climat d'impunité et de complicité institutionnelle. Selon les experts, les enfants qui dénoncent ces abus doivent surmonter une autre difficulté : être pris en charge les autorités. Pour ceux qui sortent des centres de détention, les perspectives de réinsertion sont quasi nulles. Ciudad Juárez, bien qu'emblématique par son histoire et l'apparition du terme « féminicide », illustre une problématique bien plus large où la négligence des institutions et la violence sociale alimentent un cycle de vulnérabilisation des enfants. Le projet d'une nouvelle force de sécurité capable de lutter contre les gangs en Haïti commenté par la presse américaine « C'est un espoir pour Haïti », estime le Washington Post. Contrairement à la force de sécurité actuelle menée par le Kenya, surtout composée de policiers, la force antigang proposée serait plus large, dotée du pouvoir d'arrêter et mandatée pour agir de façon indépendante, sans la police haïtienne. Mais au-delà des raisons humanitaires, rétablir l'ordre, contenir la violence des gangs et éviter l'effondrement de l'État est un enjeu vital pour les États-Unis. Les gangs haïtiens sont passés de groupes locaux à des organisations criminelles transnationales, acheminant drogue vers les États-Unis et ramenant des armes en Haïti, souligne le Washington Post. Le Miami Herald de son côté pointe une contradiction dans le projet américain. Alors que Washington affiche son intention de stabiliser Haïti, il cherche aussi à réduire des milliards de dollars d'aide étrangère, y compris des millions destinés aux missions de maintien de la paix de l'ONU. Les observateurs s'interrogent donc : les États-Unis sont-ils vraiment prêts à s'engager pour stabiliser Haïti ? Brésil : en attendant le verdict dans le procès de Jair Bolsonaro, accusé de tentative de coup d'État Les juges de la Cour suprême commencent à voter à partir de ce mardi, pour condamner ou acquitter l'ancien dirigeant d'extrême droite. Selon Folha de São Paulo, l'entourage de Jair Bolsonaro estime qu'une condamnation est probable et que la stratégie consiste désormais à éviter qu'il purge sa peine en prison. Parallèlement, Carta Capital s'intéresse à Michelle Bolsonaro, l'ex-première dame, que certains médias brésiliens voient déjà comme une possible candidate à la succession de son mari. Ce qui distingue Michelle Bolsonaro, explique le journal, n'est pas le degré d'extrémisme mais le style : alors que l'ex-président affichait brutalité et cruauté explicites, défendant la torture et se moquant des victimes du Covid, Michelle incarne la femme pieuse et compatissante, guidée par de profondes convictions religieuses. Elle alterne entre le ton plaintif de la victime et un discours enflammé mais adouci de prédicatrice. Sa violence, estime Carta Capital, ne se trouve pas dans la forme mais dans le contenu : pour elle, ses adversaires ont conclu « un pacte avec le démon », et la politique est une guerre spirituelle entre le bien et le mal absolus. Le journal conclut qu'il est difficile d'imaginer quelque chose de plus autoritaire et intolérant — de quoi faire pâlir d'envie les talibans.   Le Nicaragua veut coopérer avec les régions ukrainiennes occupées par la Russie Le régime nicaraguayen renforce les pouvoirs de Laureano Ortega Murillo, fils du couple présidentiel Daniel Ortega et Rosario Murillo. Selon La Prensa, un décret présidentiel lui confère la capacité de signer des « accords de coopération commerciale et économique » avec les régions ukrainiennes de Donetsk, Louhansk, Kherson et Zaporijia, territoires reconnus en juillet par le Nicaragua comme faisant partie de la Russie. Cette décision a provoqué l'ire de l'Ukraine et constitue, selon le journal, une violation flagrante du droit international et des résolutions de l'ONU, qui interdisent la reconnaissance de territoires acquis par la force et protègent l'intégrité territoriale des États.   Journal de la 1ère Colère des agriculteurs en Guadeloupe : la filière banane perd 500 000 euros de subventions par an au profit de la diversification agricole en Martinique.

Have you ever wondered about what goes on at your local community theatre? Or have you, yourself, participated in community theatre and wished someone covered it in a book? Today's guest of the podcast, Leah Hager Cohen, set out to do just that in her 2001 release "The Stuff of Dreams". This book covered a specific performance in a season of plays for her local community theatre, dubbed one of the oldest community theatres in the country.  Despite having many other fantastic releases since her '01 release, she's on the show today because 'The Stuff of Dreams' was a formative book for Joe during his youth and he had her on the show to discuss all things community and theatre. Please note: Unfortunately, there were some audio issues with Leah's Zoom connection and the quality is not up to the usual standards, we've cleaned it up the best we could but we hope you enjoy it nonetheless. We'll have Leah back again soon to continue this discussion! Enjoy! About Leah Hager Cohen Leah Hager Cohen was born in Manhattan and raised at Lexington School for the Deaf in Queens (where her parents worked) and later in Nyack, New York. As a kid, she spent summers at Camp Kinderland, stiltdanced with the Bread and Puppet Theater, ran a follow spot at Elmwood Playhouse, and shelved books at Nyack Library. At age 16, Leah enrolled as a drama student at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, then transferred to Hampshire College a year later to study writing. She joined an arts brigade in Nicaragua, worked as a nanny in Berkeley, rode a Greyhound bus across the country, and freelanced as an ASL interpreter in NYC before attending Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. The best praise she ever received came in a letter of recommendation by Edmund W. Gordon, her first boss after college: “She is impatient with institutional stupidity.” Her favorite quote about writing comes from the poet Joseph O. Legaspi: “My first memory of poetry was watching the rain on my windowsill when I was young, and touching the windowpane.” Leah is the author of 7 novels, 5 nonfiction books, one pamphlet, and the blog Love As A Found Object, as well as various and sundry essays, articles and reviews. As of September 2025, she has gone back to school, enrolled in the Master of Social Work program at Simmons University. About 'The Stuff of Dreams' In this unique theatrical memoir, novelist Cohen chronicles the ups and downs of her suburban community theater's struggles over the staging of David Henry Hwang's M. Butterfly. The project is fraught with problems—the Arlington, Mass., theater and its conservative supporters are reluctant to stage a play that deals daringly with sexuality and race; meanwhile, it proves quite difficult to find an Asian man to play the transgendered lead (who also has a nude scene)—but the show must and does go on. Cohen, who loves working in theater, is a keen observer who never hesitates to pinpoint the problems and personality clashes endemic to the process of putting on a play. While she provides useful background, from the history of her theater (begun in 1913) to the importance of community theater in the U.S., she is best at describing the endlessly delicate negotiations between the small but award-winning theater's director, actors, designers and stagehands. Cohen is respectful of everyone's opinions and methods as they face M. Butterfly's considerable challenges to the theater's conventional approach to staging a production and moves us assuredly through her characters' process of political and artistic discovery. While never deeply probing the myriad social issues it raises, Cohen's backstage drama does give us a miniature yet nuanced glimpse into a world rarely explored.   Make sure to check out the Dtalkspodcast.com website!

Zach sits down with Greg and Rachel Denning, parents of seven, world travelers, authors, and coaches who have built a marriage around adventure and intentional living. They share how their story began with adoption, grew through unexpected pregnancies, and expanded into a lifestyle of global travel and immersion experiences for their kids. From living on a shoestring in Nicaragua with six children to now leading retreats, writing books, and running The Extraordinary Family Life Podcast, Greg and Rachel open up about the lessons they've learned through risk, resilience, and imagination. With candor and humor, they reflect on the importance of listening, navigating differences in intimacy, and approaching both marriage and travel as a hero's journey, one that transforms you with every challenge and every chapter. Key Takeaways Adventure as a family philosophy – Travel and immersion became their way to educate, bond, and expand imagination. Cycles and chapters – They've lived their marriage in 1–3 year “chapters” of babies, moves, and big shifts, embracing change as part of the design. Rock bottom became a turning point – Running out of money in Nicaragua forced them to commit fully to creating their own path forward. Focus creates reality – Greg learned that “where the head goes, the body follows”, what you focus on is what you feel and create. Listening transforms intimacy – Rachel taught Greg how to listen without fixing, which became a cornerstone of their connection. Balancing needs in sex and love – Rachel reframed physical intimacy as a reciprocal need, equal to emotional connection, deepening their bond. Marriage as a hero's journey – Just like travel, marriage is an adventure through unknowns, challenges, and transformation. Guest Info Greg DenningCoach, author of The Formidable Family Man, and co-host of The Extraordinary Family Life Podcast, Greg helps men step into their roles as protectors, providers, and present partners. His coaching and writing distill the principles that guided his own transformation.

As part of BYU-Idaho's Summer Session Devotional Recommendations, we're featuring “Love Thy God and Thy Neighbor" by Sister Reyna I. Aburto, which was delivered on June 4, 2019. Sister Aburto was sustained in April 2017 as the second counselor in the general presidency of the Relief Society, the Church's organization for its six million female members ages 18 and older. Reyna I. Aburto was born in Nicaragua to Noel Blanco and Delbi Cardoza and married Carlos Aburto of Mexico in the Jordan River Utah Temple in 1993. They are both converts to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and they have three children.Reyna I. Aburto says her husband, Carlos, is her “best friend” and her “biggest support,” and they enjoy spending time with their children and grandchildren. She says two major incidents from her childhood greatly impacted her life: surviving an earthquake that destroyed her home and killed her older brother, and living through a period of civil unrest in Nicaragua in the late 1970s. Through these difficult experiences of loss, uncertainty and fear, she learned relationships, family, love and faith are our most precious possessions. Reyna I. Aburto attended Universidad Centroamericana, where she studied industrial engineering for four years, and holds an AAS degree in computer science from Utah Valley University. In 1989, after going through a difficult time in her life, she was invited by Latter-day Saint missionaries to attend church in California. She was hesitant at first, but recalls feeling safe and at home the moment she stepped into the meetinghouse. A few weeks later, at age 26, she was baptized. She says she has “never stopped marveling at the beauty of the gospel,” calling her membership in the Church a huge privilege and gift. Her family attended Spanish-speaking congregations until 2013, when they began attending their neighborhood English-speaking ward, and she has served extensively in the Relief Society, Young Women, Primary, Sunday School and Scouting organizations in her ward and stake (diocese). She served on the Primary general board from 2012 to 2016, where her responsibilities included coordinating resources for children in the Church with disabilities, involvement in the Scouting program, improving Primary web content and providing trainings to Church leaders in the United States and Mexico. She has worked in the language industry for more than 25 years, balancing work, family and Church responsibilities, and now owns a small translation business with her husband.

It's Tuesday, August 26th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Women in India raped, murdered, and secretly buried A temple maintenance man in India is under arrest, after he testified of hundreds of women who were allegedly raped, murdered, and secretly buried around the small religious town of Dharmasthala. The BBC reports that nearly 100 bone fragments of human remains have already been found at two spots the man identified. The employee says he worked for the temple administration between 1995 and 2014, when he was allegedly coerced into burying the bodies. In 2025, 950 attacks on Christians in India For the first five months of 2025, Open Doors reports 950 attacks on Christians in India, which accounts for a rate of 2,300 per year. According to this reliable source, “These incidents included attacks, threats to abandon the Christian faith, excommunication, social boycotts, halting prayer services and church closures. Throughout India, 200 cases have been filed against pastors and believers based on fabricated conversion allegations.” India rated as the worst in The Worldview's international morality index  -- or the Evil Index -- released last month. India rated high in persecuting Christians, corruption perceptions, as well as supporting abortion and homosexuality. Most evil nations vs. Best behaved nations The highest rated nations for immorality were India, North Korea, Mexico, Columbia, Vietnam, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar, Somalia, Nicaragua, China, and Nigeria. Best nations on the list were Armenia, Eastern European nations, Israel, Japan, and Singapore. Among European nations, Russia, Greenland, and Belgium were rated poorly. Switzerland and Ireland rated best on this International Morality Index.  The nation of Chile lost the most ground over the last eight years. The country was rated at the top of the morality index eight years ago, and has dropped to the 66th position, due largely to approving abortion in 2017, and adopting homosexual faux-marriage in 2022.   The International Morality Index considers nations on the basis of the sixth, seventh, and eighth commandments of God's law as well as the persecution of Christians.  John 1:29 says, “But let us remember, this is why Jesus came. . . John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, ‘Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!'” Kenyan pro-lifers object to Bill Gates' abortion kill pills Kenyan pro-lifers have issued a petition addressed to Kenya's Ministry of Health, complaining of IPAS Africa Alliance's distribution of abortion kill pills throughout the country.   The petition accuses IPAS of breaking Kenya's laws, and flooding schools and pharmacies with the kill pill.   The Citizen Go petition notes that “Kenya's laws protect unborn life, but IPAS is exploiting loopholes. They hand out abortion pills without scans, prescriptions, or medical supervision.” IPAS Africa Alliance is reportedly funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Mexican drug cartel leader pled guilty “Be sure your sins will find you out.” That's what Number 32:23 warns. The founder of the largest drug cartel in the world, Mexican cartel kingpin Isamel “El Mayo” Zambada, pled guilty to federal charges yesterday, reports the Associated Press. He is charged with organizing a drug smuggling operation into the US, called the Sinaloa cartel.   His partner Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was found guilty of similar charges in 2019. The Mexican Sinoloa cartel is known for assassinations, tortures, and kidnappings — terrorizing parts of the southern border areas of Mexico and Texas. Today, first time home purchase costs double rent For the first time in almost 20 years, the price of buying an entry-level home is double the expense of renting. Austin, Denver, Las Vegas, and Phoenix are some of the worst places for unaffordable properties for first-time buyers. 5% of Canadian deaths due to euthanasia Canada's Doctor Assisted Deaths now account for 5% of total deaths for the nation — more than the deaths attributed to diabetes and Alzheimer's combined.   Persons suffering solely from some sort of mental illness will be able to gain state medical help to kill themselves on March 17, 2027. In related news, the United Kingdom Bill on euthanasia has passed the House of Commons, and now has been presented to the House of Lords. United Kingdom legislature to dismiss jail time for violent offenders And finally, the United Kingdom government has come up with a plan to reduce prison overcrowding by dismissing jail time altogether for thousands of sex offenders, drug dealers, and violent criminals. The Sentencing Bill will be considered next month by parliament, reports The Times.  Exodus 22:1  provides God's wisdom in such matters. “If a man steals an ox or a sheep, and slaughters it or sells it, he shall restore five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, August 26th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Andrew Arthur is Resident Fellow in Law and Policy for the Center for Immigration Studies. He began his legal career as a clerk to an Administrative Law Judge at the United States Department of Justice, Executive Office for Immigration Review. Crosstalk receives daily updates from the Department of Homeland Security listing the arrests of what they call: The worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens. Jim listed a number of recent offenders originating from South Korea, Colombia, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Laos. Supporting such individuals are governors and mayors who are "digging in their heels" and who apparently would rather sacrifice the safety and security of their residents than remove those individuals who are here illegally. In addressing this issue, Jim had Andrew comment on a wide variety of concerns. For example: The legitimacy of asylum claims and whether this is overwhelming the judicial system. What we can learn from the news story of the illegal alien who made a U-turn that took the lives of 3 people while driving an 18 wheeler in Florida. How the Biden administration's border policies had border patrol agents so overwhelmed, personnel were very limited in terms of what they could do to stop illegal drugs from crossing the border. The latest on Kilmar Abrego Garcia, obstruction attempts such as those to shut down "Alligator Alcatraz," unaccompanied alien children and much more.
