 Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. This week, the docs welcome Dr. Nadine Al Kaisi, MD, a reproductive endocrinologist at Eggcellent Fertility, who brings an international perspective to the fertility field. Dr. Al Kaisi has practiced reproductive medicine across Germany, Spain, Belgium, and London, giving her a unique understanding of how fertility care differs around the world. In Germany, for example, preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) is not routinely performed and is used only in specific cases, such as when both partners carry a genetic condition or when sperm morphology is abnormal. Unlike in the US, much of fertility treatment in Germany is covered by insurance, creating a hybrid system that includes both public and private options. German laws impose strict limitations on fertility options outside of IVF. Egg freezing is restricted to married individuals, and same-sex couples are not eligible for treatment. Sperm donation is permitted but tightly regulated, with minimal information about the donor. At age 16, the donor-conceived child is able to contact the donor. Dr. Al Kaisi also explains how clinics in Germany perform natural cycle IVF, freeze embryos at the pronuclear stage, and transfer only one embryo per cycle. Other European countries, such as Spain and the Czech Republic, have more liberal practices—similar to the United States—though surrogacy remains prohibited. This is an interesting perspective on the different ways IVF is done in other countries. This podcast was sponsored by RMA New York. 

Unknown aerial objects are breaching Europe's nuclear facilities including Belgium's Doel Nuclear Plant and NATO bases housing US nuclear weapons, with military officials admitting interception technology has failed to capture a single object despite coordinated incursions across Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Norway, and Spain since September 2025, mirroring the unsolved New Jersey drone mystery of 2024 and historical UFO sightings over nuclear sites dating back to Malmstrom Air Force Base in 1967.To see the VIDEO of this episode, click or copy link - https://youtu.be/jSzuUtfgmmAVisit my website with International UFO News, Articles, Videos, and Podcast direct links -www.ufonews.co00:00 - UAP Over Nuclear Plants03:42 - UAPs over Brussels05:24 - Zero UAPs Intercepted06:10 - Why Europe Stays Silent07:38 - Russia Blamed, Zero Evidence09:12 - Trump Said Shoot UAPs DownBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/strange-and-unexplained--5235662/support.

Allen Hall, Joel Saxon, Phil Totaro, and Rosemary Barnes.  Allen Hall: Welcome back to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. I'm your host, Allen Hall in the queen city of Charlotte, North Carolina. I have Rosemary Barnes in Australia who has, uh, been doing a little bit of travel. Joel is back in Austin, Texas. Man, I feel like everybody's been traveling a lot and so is Yolanda. The Yolanda has been on the road quite a bit and we have a really interesting week in wind energy. Particularly over in Denmark and Norway, and if you've been following the news there, uh, as we all know, Ecuador had a pretty big investment into Sted several months ago where they put in about two and a half [00:01:00] billion dollars to buy 10% of Sted to help write the ship a little bit, and then. A c basically last month, right Joel? It was about last month where they, they spent about a billion dollars for the right rights issue, uh, to keep that stock moving, right, and or, and need more cash. And that's how they raised it. That's a total investment, about three and a half billion dollars. That's a lot of money for anybody to be spending at this moment, and Ecuador is thinking this is a pretty good bet. That's great and they wanna work closer with Ted. And the talk is that Ecuador wants a boar seat with Ted Joel. Is there any chance that is going to happen?  Joel Saxum: Well, it was, it's interesting that they brought that up as well, right? Because the initial buy-in, you know, back I think six, nine months ago or whatever it was, they specifically said in their press release, we are not trying to get a board seat. We don't want to have [00:02:00] control over this, yada, yada, yada. But then when the rights issue came out, and I think it was the, the TED stock dropped like 30% or something that day. Um, they threw more cash in, they got a little bit more power. But it's like anything, right? Once, once you've got, uh, quite a bit of money invested and you have a, have pretty heavy percentage of us of whatever that investment may be, it can be. Half ownership in a car, I don't care. You want to have a little bit more say about what happens with your money and what the results can be based on strategic decisions. And if you've, you know, been watching Ted's decisions. Now they've been at the, the whim of government policies and stuff for the last few years, but they've also mistepped a little bit on a couple of them. Uh, so you can see EOR wanting to get in there to protect their investment a little bit. The, in the funny thing to me here, and, um, Rosie, you spent a ton of time up in Denmark, is the, the, the back and forth between the Norwegians and the Danes about, oh, you're, you're just our [00:03:00] little brother. You're our, oh, you're our distant cousin, da da da da. How they were kind of all at one point in time, a lot, you know, a lot closer. There was what was called the, um, the calmer Union, I think it was. And that was the Danes, Norwegians,

There's a project on drupal.org to help you get started. Module name/project name: Local Association (EU Sites Project) Brief history How old: created in Oct 2023 by Jeremy Chinquist (jjchinquist) of drunomics and Drupal Austria Versions available: dev version only Maintainership Security coverage - opted in, no coverage until stable Documentation guide available to help with setup Number of open issues: 49 open issues, 4 of which are bugs No usage stats available Module features and usage This is an unusual project because it's designed to help you quickly create a Drupal website but it doesn't follow any of the usual patterns I've seen: a distribution, composer project template, or Drupal site template Instead, the recommended path is to clone the repo local, and run a setup script. That creates your DDEV project, runs a composer install and then drush site install, and even runs a drush uli so you can log into your built site with a single click once it's done Along the way it will install a couple of custom modules. One populates a multitude of default content, so you have a populated site including navigation as your starting point. It will look like a clone of the 2022 Drupal Netherlands site, though there have been ongoing tweaks to the overall setup, with the most recent in June of 2025. The other custom module provides some additional layouts for use with layout builder, and the project also includes a theme meant to be customized. As you may have guessed by now, this project started when the Dutch Drupal Association rebuilt their website in 2022, and wanted to share their work with other local associations. Drupal France was the first to adopt it, and there was a BoF at DrupalCon Lille in 2023 to discuss sharing it more widely. Following that, an international workgroup began collaborating to establish this project and it was adopted by Drupal associations in Belgium, Germany, Norway, Finland, and London, England. Since today's topic is about positioning Drupal on the international stage, I thought it would also be interesting to talk about how local Drupal associations have also formed their own federation to reduce effort

In this festive episode, the Hort Culture team explores the challenges and charm of growing Christmas trees in Kentucky with guest farmer John Bednarski. John shares his journey from direct-marketing beef to cultivating thousands of Christmas trees at Sherwood Acres Farm, describing the steep learning curve and family teamwork that go into the business.Listeners get an inside look at what it takes to produce the perfect holiday tree—from irrigation and soil prep to shearing, shaping, and deer control. John explains why Canaan firs thrive best in Kentucky's conditions, while other species like Norway spruce and concolor fir pose challenges. The discussion also highlights the Kentucky Christmas Tree Growers Association and the importance of mentorship for new growers.The episode blends technical insight with nostalgia as the hosts recall childhood memories of choosing fresh-cut trees and emphasize how “choose-and-cut” farms keep holiday traditions—and agritourism—alive. John also shares details about his farm's new gift shop, family-friendly activities, and plans for future wreath-making workshops.Throughout, the hosts remind listeners that buying a real tree supports local farms and sustainable practices—and even gives those trees a second life as fish habitat after the holidays.Kentucky Christmas Tree AssociationKentucky Extension Service Christmas Tree ResourcesTennessee Christmas Tree Production ManualSherwood Acres Christmas TreesFacebook: Sherwood Acres Christmas TreesOhio Christmas Tree Producers ManualQuestions/Comments/Feedback/Suggestions for Topics: hortculturepodcast@gmail.comCheck us out on Instagram!

Danny and Colin discuss the 2025 World Championships (Men's and Women's) and give their hot takes on the new Kona qualification system. Key Takeaways Norwegian Dominance: The Norwegian team's success (winning both men's and women's titles) is attributed to a high-volume training model (25–30+ hrs/wk) that prioritizes threshold work and year-round altitude training, contrasting with the lower-volume, high-intensity USAT approach. Women's Race Drama: The women's race was an epic battle of tactics. Lucy Charles-Barclay's aggressive, race-dependent strategy led to a late-race DNF, while Taylor Knibb's controlled, course-dependent strategy collapsed ~3k from the finish due to heat exhaustion. Kat Matthews set a new run course record (2:49:00) to finish a close second. New Kona Qual System Flawed: The age-graded qualification system is failing. It heavily favors the Men's 55–59 age group on flat courses (e.g., 9 of 40 slots at IM California) while making it nearly impossible for women to qualify without an age-group win. This creates an unbalanced championship field. Topics World Championship Race Recaps Men's Race (Nice): Winner: Casper Stornes (Norway), who executed a smart, patient marathon. Norwegian Team Strategy: Training: High volume (25–30+ hrs/wk) with a focus on threshold work, not VO2 max. Support: Year-round altitude training and a strong team dynamic. Youth Development: Encourages high volume from a young age, a direct contrast to USAT's approach. Race Highlights: Sam Laidlow: Overcame a poor swim to finish top five. Matthew Marquardt: Finished top 11 despite cramping issues. Amateur Course Issue: Roads were not fully closed to traffic, causing safety and performance issues on descents. Women's Race (Kona): Winner: Solveig Løvseth (Norway), who ran a consistent 2:55:00 marathon. Key Performances: Lucy Charles-Barclay: Aggressive race strategy led to a late-race DNF from heat exhaustion. Taylor Knibb: Controlled race strategy (using a real-time CORE body temp sensor) collapsed ~3k from the finish. Kat Matthews: Set a new run course record (2:49:00) to finish second, 35 seconds behind Løvseth. CORE Body Temp Sensor: Function: Provides real-time core temp data to a watch. Application: Used by Taylor Knibb to manage heat; Christian Blumenfeld reportedly stayed in Zone 2 during his record-setting IM Texas marathon. Recommendation: Prioritize core temp data over heart rate in hot races. New Kona Qualification System Mechanism: An age-graded algorithm ranks all athletes against a Men's 30–34 benchmark. Younger athletes → time added. Older athletes → time subtracted. Impacts & Flaws: Men's 55–59 Age Group: Heavily favored, especially on flat courses. IM Maryland: Top 3–4 age-graded finishers were M55–59. IM California: M55–59 took 9 of 40 slots (23%). Women's Qualification: Severely limited. Outcome: Women must win their age group to have a realistic chance of qualifying. Projected Kona Field: ~15% women, with most being age-group winners. Race Dynamics: Removes on-course racing relevance, as an athlete's adjusted time is unknown. Proposed Solutions: Gender-Specific Algorithms: Use separate benchmarks for men and women. Proportional Allocation: Distribute slots based on the gender ratio at each race. System Adjustment: Ironman should adjust the algorithm mid-season to fix the imbalance.

Mike LaRosa, founder of LaRosa Studios and represented by the Portland Art Gallery, brings an uncommon duality to his life's work—he's both a practicing pharmacist and a professional artist. Raised in Syracuse, New York, with a background in engineering and pharmacy, Mike ultimately found fulfillment through painting—proof that science and creativity can coexist in harmony. His vivid, hard-edged abstractions and Maine-inspired landscapes reflect a disciplined precision balanced by emotional spontaneity. From family hikes near Deer Isle to his fascination with cinematic color and rhythm, Mike's art reveals how structure and imagination can share the same canvas. Now living in Norway, Maine, with his physician wife and young son, he continues to explore how love—for color, composition, and connection—drives both his professions.

What if true wellness could be measured, achieved, and sustained—not just wished for? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Dane Donohue, creator of 8 Weeks to Wellness and a leading voice in chiropractic and functional health. Our conversation begins with the reality of today's health crisis—rising obesity rates, chronic disease, and declining vitality—and explores how society's current approach to healthcare has missed the mark. Dr. Donohue shares how growing up in a chiropractic family shaped his belief that health should be proactive, measurable, and holistic. We unpack the 8 Weeks to Wellness program, a science-backed system that integrates the triad of health: physical, mental-emotional, and biochemical. Through the program's "wellness score," patients can track tangible improvements in body composition, movement, and overall vitality in just eight weeks. Dr. Donohue also reveals why creating structure, accountability, and education around daily habits can spark transformation that lasts a lifetime. Together, we explore what it means to take control of your health story and how true wellness starts long before disease appears. Key Takeaways: Obesity and chronic diseases are on the rise, yet proactive health measures can significantly reverse this trend. The Eight Weeks to Wellness program is designed to educate patients on a balanced lifestyle, focusing on comprehensive wellness scores that track progress. Customized health solutions, including posture assessment, X-rays, and body composition analysis, help in formulating effective treatment plans. Education and a change in personal health philosophy are crucial in overcoming ignorance and resistance to better health habits. A positive, proactive approach to wellness, complementing traditional healthcare with functional medicine, can greatly improve quality of life.   More About Dr. Dane Donohue:   Dr. Dane Donohue is the owner of Wellness Solution Centers and 8 Weeks to Wellness. Highly sought after, this world-renowned speaker will motivate and invigorate your audience to new paradigms around the future of healthcare.  As a recognized leader in the Wellness Movement, Dr. Dane will discuss how 8 Weeks to Wellness™ has changed the lives of thousands of individuals across the world.  His vision is to unite the Chiropractic community around this clinical system and operational model of wellness in Chiropractic that is specific, reproducible and financially rewarding. 8 Weeks to Wellness™ doctors are given the opportunity to provide a revolutionary and scripted wellness program for their patients.

Churchill's Spaniards: The Spanish Republicans Who Fought for Britain in WWII — with Sean F. Scullion In this episode, I speak with historian Sean F. Scullion, author of Churchill's Spaniards, about a remarkable and little-known story: the Spanish Republicans who escaped the fall of the Second Republic, endured internment under Vichy France, and later volunteered to fight in the British Army against fascism from 1940 to 1945. Drawing on multi-lingual archival work and over 110 family interviews, Scullion reconstructs the routes these veterans took—from the French Foreign Legion and North African labour camps to the Pioneer Corps, Commandos, SOE, and even the SAS—and explores why many kept fighting despite exile, wounds, and the bitter knowledge that Franco would survive the war.Scullion also discusses his research method (triangulating sources across British, French, and Spanish archives), the challenge of language barriers inside British units, the post-war lives of these men in Britain (including the Spanish Ex-Servicemen's Association and links with trade unions), and the complicated geopolitics surrounding Churchill's efforts to keep Spain out of the war.What we coverWho were “Churchill's Spaniards”? From Republican veterans to exiles who re-entered the fight under British command.Two waves of enlistment: 1940 (after service with French forces) and 1942–44 (after release from Vichy internment in North Africa).Across the theatres: Norway, North Africa, Italy, Greece, the Mediterranean, Western Europe— as far as Burma.Units and roles: From enlistment via the Pioneer Corps to transfers into infantry, Commandos, SOE, and the SAS (with c. 15 Spaniards serving in the SAS).Motivation and ideology: Anti-fascist commitment, complex politics (including anarchist backgrounds), and hopes—ultimately disappointed—that the Allies would remove Franco.After 1945: Settlement in Britain, union activism, campaigning against Franco's regime, and the memory-work of families today.About today's guestSean F. Scullion is a historian and serving British Army officer. A bilingual Spanish–English (and fluent French) researcher, he has spent nine years tracing this diaspora of Republican veterans and their wartime service under British command, combining multilingual archival research with a large and growing network of families across Britain, Spain, and France.Recommended readingSean F.

AI agents are exploding in power and reach, simultaneously automating code security (OpenAI Aardvark), bypassing paywalls, and triggering corporate warfare (Amazon vs. Perplexity). Yet automated surveillance is failing citizens: a Colorado woman was falsely accused of theft byFlock cameras, only cleared by her Rivian's own footage. Norway disabled internet on 850 Chinese buses after finding hidden remote-shutdown features, while Xi Jinping joked about “backdoors” when gifting Xiaomi phones to South Korea's president—amid live U.S.-China trade tensions.1. AI Agents & Browsers • Atlas (OpenAI) collects every click to train models; users are the product. • Comet (Perplexity) bypasses paywalls, slashing publisher referrals 96%; Amazon calls it fraud for undisclosed AI purchases. • AI browsers remain clunky and vulnerable to prompt-injection attacks.2. Autonomous Cyber Defense • Aardvark (GPT-5) scans repos, validates exploits in sandboxes, and auto-patches; 92% detection, 10+ CVEs found. • Edge & Chrome use on-device AI to block scareware pop-ups—no cloud, no privacy leak. • GitHub Octoverse 2026 Forecast: AI writes >30% of code; TypeScript + Python >50% of new repos; India overtakes U.S. as #1 contributor.3. Geopolitical Tech Risks • Norway: 850 Chinese e-buses lose web access after remote-disable code discovered in diagnostics. • Xi-Lee Summit: Xiaomi phone gift → “Check for backdoors” quip → laughter, but U.S. espionage fears linger.4. Surveillance Backfire • Colorado: Flock ALPR logs Rivian passing → police issue summons without checking timestamps. • Rivian's 360° cameras prove owner never stopped; charges dropped. • Lesson: automated data treated as fact, not evidence, until countered by personal tech.Bottom LineAI is now infrastructure—writing code, reading paywalls, and defending systems—yet it amplifies surveillance errors and geopolitical fault lines. Tools built for control can misidentify citizens or disable cities. The same camera that accuses can exonerate; the same agent that shops can defraud. Human oversight remains the final firewall.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down what fueled Democrats' big election wins, the White House response to those losses, and why the GOP is now divided over whether to end the Senate filibuster. We'll also cover a plane crash in Kentucky, Europe's migrant gang crisis, China's backtracking on trade promises, and good news from the world of medicine. Election Aftermath and the GOP Divide: Republicans are blaming blue states for this week's Democratic sweep, but Vice President JD Vance says the problem is deeper — working-class voters are frustrated with slow economic progress. Bryan agrees, warning that without action on wages, housing, and immigration, low-propensity MAGA voters will stay home in 2026. White House Strategy and Filibuster Fight: Trump is pushing GOP senators to scrap the filibuster so his economic agenda can pass with a simple majority. Some Republicans refuse, but others warn that Democrats will eventually do it anyway. Bryan says, "If the GOP waits too long, America could wake up with Marxist mayors becoming its presidents." Migrant Crime Spreads in Europe: Norway is facing bombings and assassinations linked to North African and Middle Eastern migrant gangs spreading from Sweden. Police say children as young as ten are being recruited for contract killings — some even hired by Iran. Bryan warns, "This is what happens when immigration policy abandons common sense." Gaza's Tunnel Stalemate: Dozens of Hamas fighters are trapped in their own tunnels and begging Israel for mercy. Trump and Arab partners are urging Israel to show compassion, while Jerusalem insists the militants must surrender or face the consequences. China Backtracks on Soybean Deal: Beijing is quietly reinstating tariffs that make U.S. soybeans less competitive, undermining its trade pledges with Trump. Farmers are waiting to see if Xi Jinping will keep his word or walk away from the agreement entirely. Medical Breakthroughs — Schizophrenia and Wound Healing: British researchers discovered that the common antibiotic doxycycline may reduce schizophrenia risk by up to 35 percent. Meanwhile, University of Pennsylvania scientists found that rosemary compounds help wounds heal faster with less scarring.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: 2025 election results Democrats sweep, JD Vance working-class voters economy, Trump filibuster repeal GOP divide, Norway migrant gangs Foxtrot Rumba Iran, Hamas Gaza tunnel standoff, China soybean tariffs trade deal, doxycycline schizophrenia study UK, rosemary wound healing University of Pennsylvania

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Robert Gray, Associate Professor of University Pedagogy at the University of Bergen in Norway, to explore a fundamental question about the purpose of higher education: should learning be an act of consumption or production? Maybe the best learning experiences don't simply ask students to absorb information—they invite students to actively re-write and co-create knowledge with the teacher.Dr. Gray's research draws on Roland Barthes' concepts of "readerly" and "writerly" texts, arguing that valuable learning happens when students are encouraged to "re-write" their classroom materials and become active producers of meaning. We discuss how students bring diverse perspectives and contexts to shared texts and lectures, creating something new and innovative from the materials we provide. As educators, we are challenged to foster an active, collaborative campus culture where learning becomes genuinely additive and co-creative.Learn more about Dr. Gray's research in his article: “Learning Is [Like] an Act of Writing: The Writerly Turn in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education”Other materials referenced in this episode include:Barthes, R. (1975). The pleasure of the text (R. Miller, Trans.). Hill and Wang. (Original work published 1973).

Day 1,351.Today, as reports from Pokrovsk indicate Russian troops now hold positions across nearly the entire city, prosecutors in Kharkiv launch a new war crimes investigation after footage emerged of an alleged Russian FPV drone strike on two civilians carrying a white flag near Kharkiv. We also examine today's Joint Expeditionary Force meeting in Norway – asking whether it's wise for the group to brand itself as “NATO's first responders” – before doing a deep dive into recent cases of Ukrainian and Russian spycraft. Later, we speak with the commander of a Ukrainian drone unit who helped destroy Russian forces following the so-called “breakthrough” in Dobropillya.ContributorsDominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Francis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.With thanks to Dimko Zhluktenko.SIGN UP TO THE ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST' WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:http://telegraph.co.uk/ukrainenewsletter Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.

Watch this episode in Full Video: https://youtu.be/gyrHG74hIHA High in a cold Norwegian valley, a strange light burns without source or mercy. It hovers. It pulses. It darts across the night sky, as if guided by something that remembers what it once was. For decades, the people of Hessdalen have watched these orbs—yellow, white, sometimes blood red—drift over their quiet town like uninvited saints or patient hunters. Scientists came with instruments. Soldiers came with silence. The faithful came with stories. And still, the lights came back. They do not speak. They do not land. They only glow—and vanish—leaving behind a question that hums through the rock and bone of anyone who sees them: What if the sky itself is alive? In this episode, we descend into the valley's strange heartbeat—examining the data, the folklore, and the unnerving possibility that the Hessdalen phenomenon isn't merely weather, or plasma, or alien craft… but a reflection of us, flickering back through the dark. So light a candle. Dim the room. And listen as the Sofa King crew chases the ghost that Norway can't explain. – Project Hessdalen official site: hessdalen.org hessdalen.org– “A Long-Term Scientific Survey of the Hessdalen Phenomenon” – Teodorani, 2004. hessdalen.org+1 #Hessdalen #MysteriousLights #UFO #AtmosphericPhenomena #NorwayMystery #Unexplained #ScienceVsMystery

Q&A Edition: Spaghettification, Neutron Stars, and the Mysteries of WormholesIn this mind-bending episode of Space Nuts, hosts Andrew Dunkley and Professor Jonti Horner tackle fascinating questions from listeners that delve into the depths of cosmic phenomena. From the peculiar concept of spaghettification to the nature of black holes and the theoretical existence of wormholes, this episode is a treasure trove of astronomical insights and engaging dialogue.Episode Highlights:- Understanding Spaghettification: Buddy from Oregon asks if spaghettification is real or merely an illusion. Andrew and Jonti break down the science behind this phenomenon, explaining how the immense gravitational forces near a black hole stretch objects into long, thin shapes, much like spaghetti.- Neutron Stars vs. Black Holes: Istok from Slovenia inquires about the density of neutron stars and what happens to matter inside black holes. The hosts explore the fascinating properties of neutron stars and the limits of our understanding regarding black holes and the nature of singularities.- Theoretical Wormholes: Foster from Norway poses a question about the parameters needed for wormholes to exist, inspired by the film Interstellar. Andrew and Jonti discuss the theoretical framework of wormholes, their implications for space travel, and the challenges of proving their existence.- Pre-Big Bang Theories: Rob's thought-provoking question leads to a discussion about singularities and the potential existence of black holes before the Big Bang.
