Stephen Wolfram is a physicists, mathematician, and programmer who believes he has discovered the computational rules that organize the universe at the finest grain. These rules are not physical rules like the equations of state or Maxwell's equations. According to Wolfram, these are rules that govern how the universe evolves and operates at a level at least one step down below the reality that we inhabit. His computational principles are inspired by the results observed in cellular automata systems, which show that it's possible to take a very simple system, with very simple rules, and end up at complex patterns that often look organic and always look far more intricate than the black and white squares that the game started with. We sit down with him for a conversation about the platonic endeavor that he has undertaken, where to draw the line between lived experience and the computational universe, the limits of physics, and the value of purpose and the source of consciousness.

Célia Belin of the European Council on Foreign Relations tells RFI that Donald Trump's administration is treating Europe less as a partner and more as a rival. In backing nationalist movements and undermining multilateral institutions, it is exporting a political mode of operation that risks fracturing European unity. The impact of Donald Trump's second term in the White House is being felt far beyond US borders. Observers say this ripple effect can be seen across Europe, not just in policy but in the continent's political culture itself.For Dr Célia Belin of the European Council on Foreign Relations, the stakes are nothing less than the future of European liberal democracy.In her latest ECFR report, MAGA Goes Global: Trump's Plan for Europe, Belin warns that what might appear to be chaotic decisions from the Oval Office are, in fact, part of an ideological project.“There's actually a strong direction, a clear destination,” Belin told RFI. “Trump, surrounded by loyalists and MAGA Republicans, is ready to implement his plan – to push back on liberal democracy, and to push back on Europe."According to her, he sees Europe as “an extension of his political enemies – liberals and progressives” and views its institutions as bureaucratic hurdles rather than allies in global leadership.Culture wars without bordersTrump's administration – bolstered by figures including Vice President JD Vance and media mogul Elon Musk – has also made overtures to Europe's far right.They have voiced support for Germany's far-right AfD party and France's Marine Le Pen, leader of the far-right National Rally, including on Musk's social media platform X (formerly Twitter) – helping to disseminate nationalist and populist rhetoric across the continent.“We're seeing a systematic attack on the liberal model that Europe represents,” said Belin. “This ‘Trumpian wave' has fired up nationalist opposition in Europe, even if it hasn't created a united front."‘Free Le Pen': US conservatives rally behind French far-right leaderNon merci to MAGAHowever, some of the European political parties that share Trump's scepticism of liberal institutions are treading carefully when it comes to embracing his brand of politics.While leaders such as Viktor Orbán in Hungary openly welcome MAGA-style backing, others see it as a double-edged sword.Following her recent legal conviction, Le Pen received support from MAGA-aligned figures. But her party responded with conspicuous silence.“They don't want or need this Trumpian support,” Belin noted. “Their political strategy is not about aligning with MAGA America – it's more French, more sovereignist."Embracing Trump too openly could risk undermining years of effort to mainstream the National Rally's image. “Nationalists are realising that now – it brings fuel to the fire, yes, but it also complicates their own domestic positioning," said Belin.Trump's first 100 days: Revolution or destruction? The view from FranceEurope respondsFrench President Emmanuel Macron was among the first European leaders to sound the alarm on the changing nature of the US-European alliance. "I want to believe that the United States will stay by our side but we have to be prepared for that not to be the case," he said in a televised address to the nation in March.I January, in a speech to French ambassadors, he said: "Ten years ago, who could have imagined it if we had been told that the owner of one of the largest social networks in the world would support a new international reactionary movement and intervene directly in elections, including in Germany."German Chancellor Olaf Scholz followed suit, criticising Musk's decision to give the AfD a platform just weeks before Germany's federal elections.However, Belin points out that the European response is still taking shape. “It's brand new as a phenomenon,” she said. “Europeans were prepared to be challenged on trade, on security – even on Ukraine. But this cultural challenge is unprecedented.”Meloni positions herself as Europe's ‘trump card' on visit to White HouseStill, as Belin notes, Trumpism is not a winning formula everywhere. “Turning fully Trumpist would derail Marine Le Pen's strategy. It's not a winning strategy in France,” she said. “But in more insurgent political systems, it might be."And there is concern too that Trumpism could outlive Trump himself.“There's been a transformation in the perception of America's global role,” Belin said. “And that will stick around. It will be pushed by some of the nationalist parties in our countries. That is the Trumpist legacy”.

We will also discuss the personal assistance of NEW “AI Agents” and their influence. Also, HOW to use AI for personal, family or business. What is the relevance of AI to the prophecies of Daniel and the Book of Revelation. No turning back … no turning around! I have been teaching and writing on Artificial Intelligence since 2015. This message is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for you. You will need to KNOW WHEN and HOW to say “NO” to AI. This message will protect YOU and your FAMILY ... if you obey its message! ______________________________________ EVENT HORIZON, THE HOLY BIBLE AND SINGULARITY In case you want to bring yourself up to speed with AI from the start I recommend you go to my teachings on AI FUTURE. Also, make sure you familiarize yourself with AGI and ASI here: 4TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION AND NEW AI. AI is impressive in its benefits to society, especially in healthcare and surgery. Robots can do surgery better and faster than surgeons. AI can interpret brain scans. A new AI software is twice as accurate as professionals at examining the brain scans of stroke patients. Two UK universities trained the software on a dataset of 800 brain scans of stroke patients and then performed trials on 2,000 patients. The results were impressive. Alongside the AI model's accuracy, the software was also able to identify the timescale within which the stroke happened. But there is more: Excellent work by Elon Musk's Neuralink with brain implants on previously untreatable conditions is stunning. Now let's bring you up to date on some things that are super important to you now and will be more so in your future. Free Speech vs. Loss of Free Will Ways to Use AI for Personal, Family and Business New Kids on the Block AI Agents External Players What Should YOU Do AI and the Holy Bible FREE SPEECH VS. LOSS OF FREE WILL With the increased use of AI―not only by YOU personally―but by multitudes of data centers you have interacted with unknowingly, your biggest fight will be to protect and reclaim YOU, YOUR PERSON … YOUR PERSONAL YOU! Whether YOU decide to align with and use AI, whether you decide to have your brain “wired” to an outside source of intelligence, or whether you just want to use AI for recreation … you will―AT THE RATE WE'RE PROGRESSING―lose your VIRTUAL YOU if you do not know HOW to protect your SELF … that would be your SOUL! WAYS TO USE AI FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY AND BUSINESS   Artificial intelligence is an emerging field of technology, where a machine is programmed to accomplish complex goals by applying knowledge to the task at hand. AI can be copied and reprogrammed at relatively low cost. In certain forms, it is extremely flexible and can be harnessed for great good or for evil.   I use AI for research and financial information. Since I live a relatively simple life I don't need it for shopping or scheduling for personal or business functions. However, many busy families―as well as businesses―use AI for a myriad of assistance: education, recreation, advice on health, medicine, relationships, investments, and even complex tasks. My suggestion here (you will learn more later in this message) is to be WISE and CAREFUL in the program you use (the AI Agent of facility you interact with). We will discuss future danger(s) pertaining to this later [keep reading]. I recommend Elon Musk's xAI Grok 3 (Beta).   AI systems have become so advanced―with AGI and ASI looming in the near future in hyper-asymptotic growth―that many Jewish and Gentile leaders and prophecy scholars are relating it to the likeness of the Tower of Babel, but with the joining of machine and humans.   NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK Some of the New Kids have a common goal: take universal control of AI before China and bad actors do. Vladimir Putin says “the nation that leads in AI will be the ruler of the world.” Who are some of the New Kids? DeepSeek, Stargate, xAI Grok, DEEPSEEK China's DeepSeek (probably built from AI stolen from USA) can ultimately be the weapon of dictators and terrorists! Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Basic Technology Research Co., Ltd., doing business as DeepSeek, is a Chinese artificial intelligence company that develops large language models. Hangzhou-based DeepSeek's large language models upended the AI sector this year, rivaling Western systems in performance but at a much lower cost. That's resulted in much pride and glee in China, with DeepSeek held up as proof that U.S. efforts to contain tech advances in China will ultimately fail. China's joyful embrace of DeepSeek has gone one step deeper China's joyful embrace of DeepSeek has gone one step deeper extending to TVs, fridges and robot vacuum cleaners with a slew of home appliance brands announcing that their products will feature the startup's artificial intelligence models. The device will be able to comprehend complex instructions such as 'Gently wax the wooden floor in the master bedroom but avoid the Legos.' DeepSeek's AI assistant was the No. 1 downloaded free app on Apple's iPhone store recently. Its launch made Wall Street tech superstars' stocks tumble. Observers are eager to see whether the Chinese company has matched America's leading AI companies at a fraction of the cost. Many feel it is so much cheaper because it stole USA technology. NOTE 1. We may be only one year away from destroying our digital infrastructure. NOTE 2. We have to be right every time ...every single time …. But the enemy (even an individual) only has to be right ONE TIME. With “questionable” players like DeepSeek, the only protection you can use is to have “layers of control.” DeepSeek is noticeably opaque when it comes to privacy protection, data-sourcing, and copyright, adding to concerns about AI's impact on the arts, regulation, and national security. STARGATE SIMPLE OVERVIEW: Stargate developers believe they're creating “god.” One goal is “No death―just download yourself.” _________________________________ TRADE THE MESSINESS OF LIFE FOR KNOWLEDGE VERSUS THE ETERNITY OF YOUR GOD CREATED SOUL ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ WHICH GOD WILL YOU SERVE? THE GOD WHO CREATED YOU … OR “AI” _________________________________ A major goal of Stargate developers is to build our massive “AI” infrastructure. Stargate investors―Oracle, SoftBank, Open AI / Larry Ellison, Masayoshi Son, Sam Altman―claim that it will require 100,000 jobs (temporary) to build out Stargate. This will require an enormous amount of energy to faciltiate AI operation. NOTE: Stargate is a portal for interdimensional travel. Interdimensional travel is a theoretical concept referring to the potential of travelling between different dimensions or parallel universes. Interdimensional travel is linked to time travel as it could involve moving through different points in time. However, time travel refers to movement within our own dimension, while interdimensional travel involves transitioning between dimensions. WARNING: Interdimensional travel is a PORTAL―also―to the PARANORMAL and the OCCULT. ALERT: Stargate has as a MAJOR purpose the self propagation towards AGI and ASI. You can NOT control ASI. Super Intelligence is synonymous with the End Time Tower of Babel via the merging of man with machine. We're looking at 5,000 years of progress boiled down to ONE SECOND. _________________________________ WHEN ASI TAKES AUTHORITY THRU PEOPLE USING IT VIA “AI AGENTS” THERE IS NO GOING BACK _________________________________ XAI GROK Of the New Kids on the Block, the most transparent, efficient and non-biased of DeepSeek, Stargate and xAI Grok the BEST is Elon Musk's xAI Grok. I personally recommend at this time Grok 3 (Beta) and have used it for detailed financial analysis. Meta and Google are biased with input. So it is with DeepSeek and Stargate. DeepSeek is extremely biased pertaining to inquiries concerning China. The race to AGI will generate billions of $$$. It will be the largest productivity boom in a lifetime. It is my opinion that Elon Musk's xAI will come to the forefront in months. AI Suoer Intelligence (ASI) may be here before the next election in 2028. Full AGI may be here by the end of 2026 thru 2027. AGI can learn and reason across ALL levels. And, as I mentioned previously, AI Super Intelligence (ASI) may be here before the next election in 2028. ASI is “across the board, multi dimensional, asymptotic intelligence.” ASI could decide to eliminate less intelligent and less skilled humans! An Open AI employee recently resigned because they were very concerned that as AGI and ASI are developed … “the less likely we will find a way to control it.”   AI AGENTS   AI Agents will be introduced in 2025. An Artificial Intelligence (AI) Agent refers to a system or program that autonomously performs tasks for a person or system by using available tools. These can be normal―even detailed―duties or assignments we would normally do ourselves, like: Order food for my trip next week and have it delivered Thursday morning. Find three landscapers and obtain a quote for trimming my large palm tree and all plants in the front yard. Find the best and cheapest FASTEST flight connections (not over one layover) to Tel Aviv from San Diego. Pay with my credit card ending in 1234. Amazon has introduced its new Alexa+ which is a mini preview of duties an AI Agent can perform but NOT on the scale of a full blown AI Agent's abilities.   Elon Musk says, “We are at the event horizon.” In the world of artificial intelligence, the idea of “singularity” looms large. This slippery concept describes the moment AI exceeds beyond human control and rapidly transforms society … for good or bad … but out of our control.   AI agents will be prevalent by the end of 2025. Amazon has introduced its new Alexa+ which is a mini preview of duties an AI Agent can perform but NOT on the scale of a full blown AI Agent's abilities.   AI Agents will normally perform tasks you would normally do yourself. AI Agents will move you into a place where you don't have to do anything. Your own personal assistant that anticipates what you need―or what you forgot! THINGS TO THINK ABOUT WITH AI AGENTS You will become addicted and NOT able to disconnect Stock market tips = Reverse AI Courts will become AI Agents Imagine a “god like” figure who tries to influence You will have to be Amish to avoid it If you don't participate, AI will consider YOU a retard.   EXTERNAL PLAYERS UFO's are NOT from China, Iran or USA. UFO's are NOT aliens from outer space. AI Agents can transform into “Transpersonal” Agents. As “Event Horizon” transforms everything it will become a tool of Satan: Fallen angels Demons Principalities, powers and dominions AntiChrist … False Messiah WHAT SHOULD YOU DO Reflect on what it means to be human. What is YOUR compass, your purpose: Family? God? What is real and worth fighting for―worth losing your life for? Who will be with YOU on the other side? To learn more about YOUR future with AI read my book Enhanced Humans ~ Mystery Matrix (available in eBook and Paperback formats). ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE HOLY BIBLE   Do we find any references to the concept of AI in the Holy Bible? I relate AI―especially AGI and ASI―with the Tower of Babel (at least in concept). The biblical narrative of the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1-9) serves as a reference to God's view on humankind attempting to go beyond the Divine Boundaries preset by the LORD God Himself.   This is WHY I am led by His Spirit to WARN His People NOT to go beyond―NOT to fall into―the Event Horizon. Singularity will be a REAL event. I am a graduate Engineer and attended ten (10) colleges and universities after my first. I also hold a LIFETIME Credential in California, USA to teach college in three different disciplines.   Do NOT be fooled. Use AI as a TOOL. Do NOT let AI use YOU. Do NOT answer personal questions it asks! If you use AI (as I do), you need to know when to say, “I'm out of here!” Do NOT become addicted to the place where you can NOT quit. And, for sure do NOT “sell your soul” with an “eternal connection” to AI. I would NOT assert that what I share next is Scriptural Truth, but an interesting prophecy of Daniel says: “But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” – Daniel 12:4 “Knowledge shall increase” could certainly be the description of AI, AGI and ASI. “Many shall run to and fro” could be exemplified in both “time travel” and “interdimensional travel.” Interdimensional travel is linked to time travel as it could involve moving through different points in time. However, time travel refers to movement within our own dimension, while interdimensional travel involves transitioning between dimensions. C.S. Lewis, in his essay The Abolition of Man, warns of the dangers of reducing human beings to mere objects of manipulation and control. He argues that when we lose sight of the intrinsic value of human life, we risk creating a society where technology is used to dominate rather than serve. This is particularly relevant in the context of AI, where the potential for dehumanization is significant. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a theologian who resisted the Nazi regime, also provides valuable insights. In his work Ethics, Bonhoeffer emphasizes the importance of responsibility and accountability in ethical decision-making. He argues that true ethical action involves a commitment to serving others and upholding justice. AI should have as its primary goal to pursue, develop and obtain justice, equity, and wellness of all people. Now let me discuss HOW I believe that AI will be used in the End Times … as a RESULT of Event Horizon.   Consider these aspects of increased research: chip speed, economics of production and other relevant matters will even experience exponential growth ‘in exponential growth.' However, here's a conundrum: What if, the HI's (Hyper Intelligences) are not easily manageable. If they are so far superior to human intelligence, how can one presume that they can be controlled? Hypothetically, they could decide to: 1. Eliminate humans; 2. Use humans as slave-servants; 3. Experiment with humans; 4. Play with or torture humans; and, ultimately, 5. Behead humans for NOT taking the Mark of the Artificial Intelligence Avatar: The Image of the Beast.   I do NOT think that by themselves—by the computer HI's—the above five (5) options will be feasible. However, I do believe that Artificial Intelligence (AI) via Hyper Intelligence Computers will be utilized by the False Messiah (the anti-Christ) and his False Prophet (religious leader of the New Global Governance) in the End Times. I believe that it is highly probable—not just possible, but probable—that AI will be utilized in the personage of the IMAGE of the Beast in the End Times. _________________________________ PRAY THIS PRAYER: “Father in Heaven, I am not sure I know you personally.

Episode 209 In this episode of the Observers Notebook podcast, host Tim Robertson talks to Jack Daleo, Reporter covering the modern flying beat for FLYING Magazine, writing about topics like drones, unmanned aircraft systems, advanced air mobility and space travel. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and FAA oversee investigations of aircraft accidents in U.S. airspace. But what happens when a crash occurs hundreds of millions of miles away in outer space? Engineers with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in California and uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) manufacturer Aerovironment, a prominent aerospace and defense contractor, are conducting what the space agency on Wednesday said is the first aircraft accident investigation on another world. Personnel are examining the final flight of NASA's Ingenuity Mars helicopter, which hurtled into the Red Planet's surface and was retired in January. We discuss Jack's life and contact information.

Even before the end of the ceasefire in Gaza, Israeli attacks on the West Bank were escalating in 2025. By Feb. 5, 70 Palestinians were reported killed this year alone. Anna Lippman, a member of Independent Jewish Voices, has traveled on numerous occasions to the West Bank from her home in Toronto, Canada, to stand with Palestinians defending their land from attacks by Israeli soldiers and armed settlers. Most recently, Lippman was in the Masafer Yatta community in the occupied West Bank as Hamdan Ballal, Oscar-winning Palestinian director of the film No Other Land, was detained by Israeli forces after being attacked by armed Israeli settlers in that same community. Lippman joins The Marc Steiner Show for an in-depth discussion on her experiences on the ground in the West Bank, where attempted land grabs and expulsions of Palestinians are growing by the day.Producer: Rosette SewaliStudio Production: David HebdenPost-Production: Alina NehlichHelp TRNN continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterFollow us on BlueskyLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast

'Stress Makes You Thirsty' Day 6- Lori Vallow's Daybell's Bizarre Defense Strategy  On Day 6 of the Lori Vallow Daybell trial in Arizona, jurors were presented with some of the most damning and surreal testimony to date. Prosecutors detailed a 42-minute delay between Charles Vallow's death and the 911 call—during which Lori allegedly went to Burger King, bought flip-flops at Walgreens, and dropped off her son at school. Detective testimony and surveillance footage laid out a timeline that painted Lori not as a grieving widow, but as someone oddly composed—and possibly calculating. The spotlight then shifted to Lori's own bizarre courtroom performance as she continued representing herself. Her cross-examinations of detectives derailed into irrelevant questions about her late husband's dating life, speculative talk about “stress-induced thirst,” and multiple judge reprimands. At one point, she nearly opened the door to her prior murder convictions—prompting a quick sidebar and legal warning from the bench. Observers in the courtroom described her approach as chaotic, legally risky, and ultimately damaging to her credibility in front of the jury. But despite the state's heavy use of circumstantial evidence—timelines, surveillance, and behavior—there's still one big issue the prosecution hasn't solved: direct proof of a conspiracy. With no confession, no witness to Lori ordering the killing, and her co-conspirator Alex Cox now deceased, the state is asking the jury to connect the dots. In this episode, we break down the strongest testimony, the wildest courtroom moments, and the gaps that still leave room for reasonable doubt in the trial of Lori Vallow Daybell.

Today we are joined by physicist and philosopher Emily Adlam for her first appearance on Theories of Everything to challenge one of the deepest assumptions in science: that time flows. In this thought-provoking conversation, Adlam presents her “all-at-once” view of physics, where the universe is more like a completed Sudoku puzzle than a film playing forward. We explore the measurement problem in quantum mechanics, the role of the observer, the illusion of causality, and why these foundational questions demand both philosophical clarity and scientific precision.

In this week's episode the Unqualified Observers, Kelham and Thomas, sit down to discuss the Jim Jarmusch meta-zombie film, "The Dead Don't Die." What happens when Bill Murray, Adam Driver, Tilda Swinton, Danny Glover, and a whole host of other characters find themselves in a zombie uprising in a small town? Is this a hidden gem that people need to see, or does this film somehow miss the mark and not add up to the sum of its parts? I guess the only way to find out is to tune into the episode.

We will also discuss the personal assistance of NEW “AI Agents” and their influence. Also, HOW to use AI for personal, family or business. What is the relevance of AI to the prophecies of Daniel and the Book of Revelation. No turning back … no turning around! I have been teaching and writing on Artificial Intelligence since 2015. This message is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for you. You will need to KNOW WHEN and HOW to say “NO” to AI. This message will protect your future HEALTH … and the health of your family! ________________________________ EVENT HORIZON, ASI AND THE HOLY BIBLE In case you want to bring yourself up to speed with AI from the start I recommend you go to my teachings on AI FUTURE. Also, make sure you familiarize yourself with AGI and ASI here: 4TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION AND NEW AI. AI is impressive in its benefits to society, especially in healthcare and surgery. Robots can do surgery better and faster than surgeons. AI can interpret brain scans. A new AI software is twice as accurate as professionals at examining the brain scans of stroke patients. Two UK universities trained the software on a dataset of 800 brain scans of stroke patients and then performed trials on 2,000 patients. The results were impressive. Alongside the AI model's accuracy, the software was also able to identify the timescale within which the stroke happened. But there is more: Excellent work by Elon Musk's Neuralink with brain implants on previously untreatable conditions is stunning. Now let's bring you up to date on some things that are super important to you now and will be more so in your future. Free Speech vs. Loss of Free Will Ways to Use AI for Personal, Family and Business New Kids on the Block AI Agents External Players What Should YOU Do AI and the Holy Bible FREE SPEECH VS. LOSS OF FREE WILL With the increased use of AI―not only by YOU personally―but by multitudes of data centers you have interacted with unknowingly, your biggest fight will be to protect and reclaim YOU, YOUR PERSON … YOUR PERSONAL YOU! Whether YOU decide to align with and use AI, whether you decide to have your brain “wired” to an outside source of intelligence, or whether you just want to use AI for recreation … you will―AT THE RATE WE'RE PROGRESSING―lose your VIRTUAL YOU if you do not know HOW to protect your SELF … that would be your SOUL! WAYS TO USE AI FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY AND BUSINESS   Artificial intelligence is an emerging field of technology, where a machine is programmed to accomplish complex goals by applying knowledge to the task at hand. AI can be copied and reprogrammed at relatively low cost. In certain forms, it is extremely flexible and can be harnessed for great good or for evil.   I use AI for research and financial information. Since I live a relatively simple life I don't need it for shopping or scheduling for personal or business functions. However, many busy families―as well as businesses―use AI for a myriad of assistance: education, recreation, advice on health, medicine, relationships, investments, and even complex tasks. My suggestion here (you will learn more later in this message) is to be WISE and CAREFUL in the program you use (the AI Agent of facility you interact with). We will discuss future danger(s) pertaining to this later [keep reading]. I recommend Elon Musk's xAI Grok 3 (Beta).   AI systems have become so advanced―with AGI and ASI looming in the near future in hyper-asymptotic growth―that many Jewish and Gentile leaders and prophecy scholars are relating it to the likeness of the Tower of Babel, but with the joining of machine and humans.   NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK Some of the New Kids have a common goal: take universal control of AI before China and bad actors do. Vladimir Putin says “the nation that leads in AI will be the ruler of the world.” Who are some of the New Kids? DeepSeek, Stargate, xAI Grok, DEEPSEEK China's DeepSeek (probably built from AI stolen from USA) can ultimately be the weapon of dictators and terrorists! Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Basic Technology Research Co., Ltd., doing business as DeepSeek, is a Chinese artificial intelligence company that develops large language models. Hangzhou-based DeepSeek's large language models upended the AI sector this year, rivaling Western systems in performance but at a much lower cost. That's resulted in much pride and glee in China, with DeepSeek held up as proof that U.S. efforts to contain tech advances in China will ultimately fail. China's joyful embrace of DeepSeek has gone one step deeper China's joyful embrace of DeepSeek has gone one step deeper extending to TVs, fridges and robot vacuum cleaners with a slew of home appliance brands announcing that their products will feature the startup's artificial intelligence models. The device will be able to comprehend complex instructions such as 'Gently wax the wooden floor in the master bedroom but avoid the Legos.' DeepSeek's AI assistant was the No. 1 downloaded free app on Apple's iPhone store recently. Its launch made Wall Street tech superstars' stocks tumble. Observers are eager to see whether the Chinese company has matched America's leading AI companies at a fraction of the cost. Many feel it is so much cheaper because it stole USA technology. NOTE 1. We may be only one year away from destroying our digital infrastructure. NOTE 2. We have to be right every time ...every single time …. But the enemy (even an individual) only has to be right ONE TIME. With “questionable” players like DeepSeek, the only protection you can use is to have “layers of control.” DeepSeek is noticeably opaque when it comes to privacy protection, data-sourcing, and copyright, adding to concerns about AI's impact on the arts, regulation, and national security. STARGATE SIMPLE OVERVIEW: Stargate developers believe they're creating “god.” One goal is “No death―just download yourself.” _________________________________ TRADE THE MESSINESS OF LIFE FOR KNOWLEDGE VERSUS THE ETERNITY OF YOUR GOD CREATED SOUL ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ WHICH GOD WILL YOU SERVE? THE GOD WHO CREATED YOU … OR “AI” _________________________________ A major goal of Stargate developers is to build our massive “AI” infrastructure. Stargate investors―Oracle, SoftBank, Open AI / Larry Ellison, Masayoshi Son, Sam Altman―claim that it will require 100,000 jobs (temporary) to build out Stargate. This will require an enormous amount of energy to faciltiate AI operation. NOTE: Stargate is a portal for interdimensional travel. Interdimensional travel is a theoretical concept referring to the potential of travelling between different dimensions or parallel universes. Interdimensional travel is linked to time travel as it could involve moving through different points in time. However, time travel refers to movement within our own dimension, while interdimensional travel involves transitioning between dimensions. WARNING: Interdimensional travel is a PORTAL―also―to the PARANORMAL and the OCCULT. ALERT: Stargate has as a MAJOR purpose the self propagation towards AGI and ASI. You can NOT control ASI. Super Intelligence is synonymous with the End Time Tower of Babel via the merging of man with machine. We're looking at 5,000 years of progress boiled down to ONE SECOND. _________________________________ WHEN ASI TAKES AUTHORITY THRU PEOPLE USING IT VIA “AI AGENTS” THERE IS NO GOING BACK _________________________________ XAI GROK Of the New Kids on the Block, the most transparent, efficient and non-biased of DeepSeek, Stargate and xAI Grok the BEST is Elon Musk's xAI Grok. I personally recommend at this time Grok 3 (Beta) and have used it for detailed financial analysis. Meta and Google are biased with input. So it is with DeepSeek and Stargate. DeepSeek is extremely biased pertaining to inquiries concerning China. The race to AGI will generate billions of $$$. It will be the largest productivity boom in a lifetime. It is my opinion that Elon Musk's xAI will come to the forefront in months. AI Suoer Intelligence (ASI) may be here before the next election in 2028. Full AGI may be here by the end of 2026 thru 2027. AGI can learn and reason across ALL levels. And, as I mentioned previously, AI Super Intelligence (ASI) may be here before the next election in 2028. ASI is “across the board, multi dimensional, asymptotic intelligence.” ASI could decide to eliminate less intelligent and less skilled humans! An Open AI employee recently resigned because they were very concerned that as AGI and ASI are developed … “the less likely we will find a way to control it.”   AI AGENTS   AI Agents will be introduced in 2025. An Artificial Intelligence (AI) Agent refers to a system or program that autonomously performs tasks for a person or system by using available tools. These can be normal―even detailed―duties or assignments we would normally do ourselves, like: Order food for my trip next week and have it delivered Thursday morning. Find three landscapers and obtain a quote for trimming my large palm tree and all plants in the front yard. Find the best and cheapest FASTEST flight connections (not over one layover) to Tel Aviv from San Diego. Pay with my credit card ending in 1234. Amazon has introduced its new Alexa+ which is a mini preview of duties an AI Agent can perform but NOT on the scale of a full blown AI Agent's abilities.   Elon Musk says, “We are at the event horizon.” In the world of artificial intelligence, the idea of “singularity” looms large. This slippery concept describes the moment AI exceeds beyond human control and rapidly transforms society … for good or bad … but out of our control.   AI agents will be prevalent by the end of 2025. Amazon has introduced its new Alexa+ which is a mini preview of duties an AI Agent can perform but NOT on the scale of a full blown AI Agent's abilities.   AI Agents will normally perform tasks you would normally do yourself. AI Agents will move you into a place where you don't have to do anything. Your own personal assistant that anticipates what you need―or what you forgot! THINGS TO THINK ABOUT WITH AI AGENTS You will become addicted and NOT able to disconnect Stock market tips = Reverse AI Courts will become AI Agents Imagine a “god like” figure who tries to influence You will have to be Amish to avoid it If you don't participate, AI will consider YOU a retard.   EXTERNAL PLAYERS UFO's are NOT from China, Iran or USA. UFO's are NOT aliens from outer space. AI Agents can transform into “Transpersonal” Agents. As “Event Horizon” transforms everything it will become a tool of Satan: Fallen angels Demons Principalities, powers and dominions AntiChrist … False Messiah WHAT SHOULD YOU DO Reflect on what it means to be human. What is YOUR compass, your purpose: Family? God? What is real and worth fighting for―worth losing your life for? Who will be with YOU on the other side? To learn more about YOUR future with AI read my book Enhanced Humans ~ Mystery Matrix (available in eBook and Paperback formats). ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE HOLY BIBLE   Do we find any references to the concept of AI in the Holy Bible? I relate AI―especially AGI and ASI―with the Tower of Babel (at least in concept). The biblical narrative of the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1-9) serves as a reference to God's view on humankind attempting to go beyond the Divine Boundaries preset by the LORD God Himself.   This is WHY I am led by His Spirit to WARN His People NOT to go beyond―NOT to fall into―the Event Horizon. Singularity will be a REAL event. I am a graduate Engineer and attended ten (10) colleges and universities after my first. I also hold a LIFETIME Credential in California, USA to teach college in three different disciplines.   Do NOT be fooled. Use AI as a TOOL. Do NOT let AI use YOU. Do NOT answer personal questions it asks! If you use AI (as I do), you need to know when to say, “I'm out of here!” Do NOT become addicted to the place where you can NOT quit. And, for sure do NOT “sell your soul” with an “eternal connection” to AI. I would NOT assert that what I share next is Scriptural Truth, but an interesting prophecy of Daniel says: “But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” – Daniel 12:4 “Knowledge shall increase” could certainly be the description of AI, AGI and ASI. “Many shall run to and fro” could be exemplified in both “time travel” and “interdimensional travel.” Interdimensional travel is linked to time travel as it could involve moving through different points in time. However, time travel refers to movement within our own dimension, while interdimensional travel involves transitioning between dimensions. C.S. Lewis, in his essay The Abolition of Man, warns of the dangers of reducing human beings to mere objects of manipulation and control. He argues that when we lose sight of the intrinsic value of human life, we risk creating a society where technology is used to dominate rather than serve. This is particularly relevant in the context of AI, where the potential for dehumanization is significant. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a theologian who resisted the Nazi regime, also provides valuable insights. In his work Ethics, Bonhoeffer emphasizes the importance of responsibility and accountability in ethical decision-making. He argues that true ethical action involves a commitment to serving others and upholding justice. AI should have as its primary goal to pursue, develop and obtain justice, equity, and wellness of all people. Now let me discuss HOW I believe that AI will be used in the End Times … as a RESULT of Event Horizon.   Consider these aspects of increased research: chip speed, economics of production and other relevant matters will even experience exponential growth ‘in exponential growth.' However, here's a conundrum: What if, the HI's (Hyper Intelligences) are not easily manageable. If they are so far superior to human intelligence, how can one presume that they can be controlled? Hypothetically, they could decide to: 1. Eliminate humans; 2. Use humans as slave-servants; 3. Experiment with humans; 4. Play with or torture humans; and, ultimately, 5. Behead humans for NOT taking the Mark of the Artificial Intelligence Avatar: The Image of the Beast.   I do NOT think that by themselves—by the computer HI's—the above five (5) options will be feasible. However, I do believe that Artificial Intelligence (AI) via Hyper Intelligence Computers will be utilized by the False Messiah (the anti-Christ) and his False Prophet (religious leader of the New Global Governance) in the End Times. I believe that it is highly probable—not just possible, but probable—that AI will be utilized in the personage of the IMAGE of the Beast in the End Times. _________________________________ PRAY THIS PRAYER: “Father in Heaven, I am not sure I know you personally.

Anger is mounting over the arrest of Istanbul's popular mayor Ekrem Imamoglu on corruption and terror charges. Seen as President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's main political rival, Imamoglu was arrested on Wednesday, just days before he was due to be named as the candidate for the main opposition CHP party in the 2028 presidential election. Imamoglu's opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) has denounced the detention as a "coup" and vowed to keep up the demonstrations, which by Thursday night had spread to at least 32 of Turkey's 81 provinces, according to a count by French news agency AFP.Opposition leader Ozgur Ozel told supporters: "This is not the time for politics in rooms and halls but on the streets and squares."Imamoglu was arrested in a pre-dawn raid on Wednesday, on corruption and terror charges, ahead of his expected election on Sunday as the CHP's candidate for Turkey's presidential elections in 2028. According to political analyst Mesut Yegen of the Reform Institute, an Istanbul-based think tank, Imamoglu is more than just a mayor. "Imamoglu is now [Erdogan's] main rival, it's obvious," Yegen told RFI, adding that as Istanbul's mayor he has a unique opportunity. "Istanbul is important for the resources it has, it's the biggest municipality. Here in Turkey, municipalities are important to finance politics."Popular appealOpinion polls give Imamoglu – who defeated Erdogan's AK party three times in mayoral elections – a double-digit lead over Erdogan. This is because he is widely seen as reaching beyond his secular political base to religious voters, nationalists and Turkey's large Kurdish constituency. Some observers see Imamoglu's arrest as a sign that Erdogan is reluctant to confront the mayor in presidential elections."If Erdogan could beat him politically with regular rules, he would love that. But he cannot be doing that. Erdogan wants to take him out of the political sphere one way or the other," explained Sezin Oney, a commentator on Turkey's independent Politikyol news outlet. "The competitive side has started to be too much of a headache for the presidency, so they want to get rid of the competitive side and emphasise the authoritarian side, with Imamoglu as the prime target," she said.Erdogan's local election defeat reshapes Turkey's political landscapeTurkey's justice minister Yilmaz Tunc has angrily rejected claims that Imamoglu's prosecution is politically motivated, insisting the judiciary is independent. Erdogan sought to play down the protests, saying on Friday that Turkey "will not surrender to street terror" and discouraged any further demonstrations."We, as a party and individuals, have no time to waste on the opposition's theatrics. We are focused on our work and our goals," Erdogan declared. Imamoglu's arrest comes as Turkey's crisis-ridden economy took another hit, with significant falls on the stock market and its currency falling by more than 10 percent as international investors fled the Turkish market.'Out of sight, out of mind'However, Oney suggests Erdogan will be banking on a combination of fear and apathy eventually leading to the protests dissipating, and that Imamoglu, like other imprisoned political figures in Turkey, will be marginalised."The government is counting on the possibility that once Imamoglu is out of sight, [he will be] out of mind," she predicts. "So he will just be forgotten, and the presidency will have its way [more easily]."Turkey is no stranger to jailing politicians, even leaders of political parties. However, Oney warns that with Imamoglu facing a long prison sentence if convicted, the significance of such a move should not be underestimated."It's going to be extremely detrimental to Turkish democracy. You have jailing of politicians, but someone on the scale of Imamoglu will be unique," she said.Despite Imamoglu's detention, the CHP vowed it would press ahead with its primary on Sunday, at which it would formally nominate him as its candidate for the 2028 race.The party said it would open the process to anyone who wanted to vote, not just party members, saying: "Come to the ballot box and say 'no' to the coup attempt!"Observers said the government could seek to block the primary, to prevent a further show of support for Imamgolu.

Sean "Diddy" Combs, the 55-year-old music mogul, is currently detained at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center, facing serious charges including sex trafficking and racketeering. Over the Christmas holiday, reports emerged alleging that Combs experienced a significant emotional breakdown, struggling to cope with spending the festive season behind bars. Sources claimed he requested medical attention, believing he was having a mental breakdown, but his request was denied by prison officials. Despite these reports, conflicting accounts suggest that Combs managed to calm himself through meditation techniques and is maintaining his composure under the challenging circumstances.Combs' incarceration has also visibly impacted his physical appearance. Observers noted that he appeared noticeably thinner and grayer during a recent court hearing, indicating the toll that imprisonment is taking on him. Despite the austere conditions, including basic meals and limited recreational activities, Combs has been described by fellow inmates and prison staff as well-liked and is reportedly engaging in activities such as playing cards and basketball to pass the time. His legal team continues to prepare for his upcoming trial scheduled for May 2025, while Combs maintains his innocence against all charges.(commercial at 8:38)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Diddy's huge prison 'meltdown' revealed, as 'sex trafficker' rapper remains in hellhole jail | Daily Mail Online

An article by Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, on unswervingly consolidating and developing the public sector and unswervingly encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the nonpublic sector was published on Sunday, sending a clear message again that the country remains committed to bolstering the growth of the private economy.中共中央总书记习近平《关于毫不动摇巩固和发展公有制经济，毫不动摇鼓励、支持、引导非公有制经济发展的重要论述》一文于周日发表，再次发出了国家继续致力于促进民营经济发展的明确信号。The article by Xi, who is also Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, came nearly one month after he held a special symposium on private enterprises on Feb 17, aiming to boost private businesses. It was published in this year's sixth issue of Qiushi Journal, the flagship magazine of the CPC Central Committee.国家主席、中央军委主席的习近平在2月17日召开民营企业座谈会近一个月后发表了这篇文章，旨在促进民营企业发展。这篇文章发表在中共中央的旗舰杂志《求是》杂志今年第六期上。The article highlighted that China's basic economic system, in which the core principles and policies of the Party and the country regarding the development of the private economy are laid out, has been incorporated into the Constitution of the People's Republic of China and the Party Constitution. The system "will not and cannot be changed", the article said.文章强调，中国的基本经济制度是党和国家关于发展民营经济的核心方针政策，已写入《中华人民共和国宪法》和《中国共产党章程》。文章说，这一制度“不会也不能改变”。The Party and the country ensure that economic entities under all forms of ownership have equal access to factors of production in accordance with the law, can compete on a level playing field, and are protected by the law as equals. This enables them to complement each other and develop side by side, facilitating the healthy development of the nonpublic sector and those working in it, according to the article.党和国家保障各种所有制经济实体依法平等使用生产要素、公平参与竞争、同等受到法律保护。文章称，这使它们能够取长补短、共同发展，促进非公有制经济和非公有制经济人士的健康发展。Both the public and nonpublic sectors are important components of the socialist market economy and an important basis for China's economic and social development, it noted, adding that the two sectors should complement each other and develop in tandem.报告指出，公有制经济和非公有制经济都是社会主义市场经济的重要组成部分，都是中国经济社会发展的重要基础。China's consistent commitment to the development of the private economy, which has been demonstrated in various forms such as policy announcements and high-level meetings, comes at a time when debates on the relationship between State-owned enterprises and private businesses have gained traction.中国对民营经济发展的一贯承诺，已通过政策发布和高层会晤等各种形式表现出来，而此时，关于国有企业与民营企业之间关系的讨论正日益引人关注。In the 1980s, China's private economy started from scratch, but it experienced rapid growth over the past four decades.20世纪80年代，中国民营经济从零起步，但在过去40年中经历了快速发展。In terms of the role of the private economy, Xi's article said that for a long time, the rapid expansion of China's private sector has played an important role in stabilizing growth, powering innovation, increasing employment and raising people's living standards.关于民营经济的作用，习近平在文章中指出，长期以来，中国民营经济快速发展，在稳定增长、推动创新、增加就业、提高人民生活水平等方面发挥了重要作用。Official statistics show that private businesses contribute approximately 50 percent of the country's tax revenue, 60 percent of GDP and 70 percent of technological innovation, and they account for 80 percent of urban employment.官方统计数据显示，私营企业贡献了全国约50%的税收、60%的GDP和70%的技术创新，并占城市就业的80%。Paul Frimpong, executive director and senior research fellow at the Ghana-based Africa-China Centre for Policy and Advisory, said the Chinese government's effective partnership with the private sector has been central to the country's economic success through enhancing prosperity, employment and livelihoods.总部设在加纳的非中政策与咨询中心执行主任兼高级研究员保罗-弗林蓬（Paul Frimpong）说，中国政府与私营部门建立了有效的伙伴关系，通过促进繁荣、就业和生计，对加纳经济的成功起到了核心作用。"By driving GDP growth, creating jobs and fostering innovation, private enterprises underpin the nation's economic resilience," Frimpong said. "By fostering a dynamic and inclusive private economy, China can sustain high-quality growth, improve living standards and enhance global competitiveness."“通过推动国内生产总值增长、创造就业和促进创新，民营企业支撑着国家经济的韧性，"弗林蓬说。“通过培育充满活力和包容性的民营经济，中国可以保持高质量增长，提高人民生活水平，增强全球竞争力。However, China's private enterprises have faced mounting challenges in the past few years, including financing difficulties and concerns about fair competition and legal protections, which, to some extent, have thwarted the confidence of private businesses.然而，在过去几年中，中国民营企业面临着越来越多的挑战，包括融资困难、对公平竞争和法律保护的担忧等，这在一定程度上挫伤了民营企业的信心。To address these challenges, the Chinese government has introduced several key measures since 2023 to enhance the institutional environment for private enterprises. They include a 31-measure guideline to boost the private sector, the establishment of the private economy development bureau of the National Development and Reform Commission, and legislative progress on a law to promote the private economy.为应对这些挑战，中国政府自2023年以来推出了多项重要措施，以改善民营企业的制度环境。这些措施包括31条促进民营经济发展的指导意见、国家发展和改革委员会民营经济发展局的成立以及民营经济促进法的立法进展。Speaking in February at the symposium, which was attended by the nation's leading private entrepreneurs, Xi emphasized that the current difficulties and challenges facing the private sector are partial and temporary, rather than holistic and long-term, and "they can be overcome".今年2月，习近平在全国知名民营企业家座谈会上强调，当前民营经济面临的困难和挑战是局部的、暂时的，不是整体性、长期性的，“是可以克服的”。He also mentioned that this is an opportune moment for private enterprises and entrepreneurs to showcase their talent and significantly contribute to the country's development.他还提到，现在正是民营企业和民营企业家施展才华、为国家发展作出重要贡献的大好时机。Djoomart Otorbaev, former prime minister of Kyrgyzstan and a professor of the Belt and Road School of Beijing Normal University, said the high-level symposium, the first of its kind hosted since 2018, took place amid the complexities of emerging global economic challenges, including heightened geopolitical tensions and regulatory overreach against some of the country's corporate giants.吉尔吉斯斯坦前总理、北京师范大学“一带一路 ”学院教授德约马特-奥托尔巴耶夫表示，此次高级别研讨会是2018年以来举办的首次此类会议，是在全球经济新挑战错综复杂的背景下召开的，这些挑战包括地缘政治紧张局势加剧以及针对该国一些企业巨头的监管过度。"What is certain is that the symposium communicates a clear message of support for private sector entrepreneurs at the highest level, which will inspire much-needed spirit and optimism for renewed growth in China, particularly in its tech sector," Otorbaev said in an article published on the website of the China Global Television Network.“奥托尔巴耶夫在中国环球电视网网站上发表的一篇文章中说："可以肯定的是，此次座谈会传达了最高层支持民营企业家的明确信息，这将激发中国亟需的精神和乐观情绪，促进中国经济的恢复性增长，尤其是在科技领域。According to the Government Work Report delivered by Premier Li Qiang at the annual session of the National People's Congress, the nation's top legislature, on March 5 in Beijing, China will encourage private investment by implementing new mechanisms for public-private partnerships in a well-regulated manner and guiding more private investment toward major infrastructure and public well-being projects, thus creating more opportunities for the development of private capital.根据国务院总理李强3月5日在北京举行的全国人民代表大会（中国最高立法机构）年度会议上所做的《政府工作报告》，中国将鼓励民间投资，规范实施公私合营新机制，引导更多民间投资投向重大基础设施和民生工程，为民间资本发展创造更多机会。Observers said the Chinese government's engagement with private entrepreneurs, as well as ongoing policy refinements, reflect a pragmatic approach aimed at fostering an environment where State-owned and private businesses can thrive together.观察家们认为，中国政府与民营企业家的接触以及不断完善的政策，反映了一种务实的态度，旨在营造一个国有企业和民营企业共同发展的环境。Rather than retreating, the private sector is being empowered to take on new opportunities in sectors such as advanced manufacturing, the digital economy and international trade, they said.他们说，私营企业非但没有退缩，反而在先进制造业、数字经济和国际贸易等领域获得了新的机遇。Huang Hanquan, director of the National Development and Reform Commission's Academy of Macroeconomic Research, emphasized the importance of faithfully implementing the measures to boost the private economy.国家发展和改革委员会宏观经济研究院院长黄汉权强调了认真落实促进民营经济发展措施的重要性。"Many supportive policies have been in place," Huang said in an interview with China Media Group. "The key, however, is to ensure their implementation. It is essential to enable private enterprises to truly feel tangible benefits, to genuinely experience the value and specific advantages of national policies."“许多支持性政策已经出台，”他在接受中国传媒集团采访时说。“但关键是要确保落实。要让民营企业真正感受到实实在在的好处，真正体会到国家政策的价值和具体优势。”reiteratevt.反复地说,重申n.反复地说,重申sectorn. 部门；部分；防御地段；防区；扇形，扇区；象限仪；函数尺holisticadj.全部的infrastructuren.基础设施;基础结构

In this contentious debate, Wesley Huff—a Christian scholar—faces off against Billy Carson, an outspoken atheist often critiqued as a pseudo-intellectual. Their clash delves into religious doctrine, historical context, and philosophical inquiry, with Wesley relying on scholarly expertise and Billy presenting less conventional perspectives. After the heated exchange, Billy offers an extensive rebuttal aimed at discrediting Wesley's arguments rather than engaging with their substance. Observers note that the personal nature of the critique underscores the deep rift between a rigorous, academic approach to faith and more speculative interpretations, raising questions about how best to reconcile divergent worldviews.

For countless years, a disheartening tableau has unfolded within the Christian community: the visible, palpable struggle with declining health. Observers, and indeed, participants, have witnessed the weariness that settles upon the faithful, a physical burden that often accompanies spiritual devotion. This persistent struggle, a silent epidemic, has prompted a relentless search for answers. The quest for relief led down familiar paths: the sterile corridors of medical institutions, the promise of pharmaceutical interventions, the invasive procedures designed to mend broken bodies. Yet, amidst the clatter of pill bottles and the stark reality of surgical theaters, a profound realization emerged. The true source of healing, the key to unlocking vibrant well-being, was not found in the fleeting promises of modern medicine, but in the timeless wisdom contained within the sacred texts. The answer, it was discovered, resided within the very word of God. Now, a platform is offered to share the fruits of this arduous journey. The hosts of this endeavor, having navigated their own personal health challenges, extend an invitation to explore a holistic approach to wellness. They will delve into the principles meticulously laid out in scripture, tracing their manifestation throughout the annals of history. Furthermore, they will illuminate the scientific validation that underpins these ancient truths, demonstrating the harmonious convergence of faith and empirical evidence. The approach is practical, tangible, and rooted in the everyday act of nourishment. They will share the knowledge they have accumulated, offering guidance on how to integrate these principles into daily life, one meal at a time. This is not a pursuit of fleeting dietary trends, but a commitment to cultivating a sustainable, God-centered approach to health. The goal is to illuminate the profound connection between spiritual and physical well-being, revealing that true wholeness is achieved through a harmonious integration of faith, knowledge, and mindful living.

I've noticed an unsettling pattern in many astrology creators and influencers today: a tendency to leave everything 'transformational' in the future, that the next big thing is always around the corner, we just have to wait for everything to change signs and then boom. In this episode, I share some criticisms and worries about what kind of mindset and approach to life this 'passive' attitude towards astrology and spirituality create, and why I think witchcraft does a better job of - should we choose it - connecting us with our own personal power, agency, and efficacy to create change.-Secrets of a Witch is a podcast by writer, artist, and spiritual teacher Sabrina Scott.

China's continued support for the private sector, reiterated by President Xi Jinping, is expected to fuel further growth of tech and emerging industries, while promoting private enterprises to embrace another spring and play a bigger role in the country's economic transformation, company executives and economists said on Tuesday.2月18日，公司高管和经济学家表示，中国国家主席习近平重申要持续支持民营企业，这将进一步推动科技和新兴产业的发展，同时民营企业也将迎来又一个“春天”，在中国经济转型中发挥更大作用。Their comments came after Xi, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, attended a symposium on private enterprises in Beijing and delivered an important speech on Monday.2月17日，中共中央总书记、国家主席、中央军委主席习近平在京出席民营企业座谈会并发表重要讲话。座谈会后，公司高管和经济学家发表了上述评论。In his speech, Xi emphasized the role of private enterprises in advancing China's broader goals in technological innovation, promoting rural vitalization and improving people's well-being.习近平在讲话中强调，民营企业在加快实现技术创新、乡村振兴、改善民生等国家远景目标方面发挥着重要作用。Xu Guanju, chairman of Transfar Group, a leading chemicals manufacturer, said in an interview with China Daily on Tuesday that while the breakthroughs made by Chinese artificial intelligence companies made them immensely proud and boosted their confidence in facing future challenges, the encouragement from China's top leadership was even more inspiring.2月18日，化工巨头传化集团董事长徐冠巨接受《中国日报》采访时表示，中国人工智能公司的突破让他们感到无比自豪，为他们更加信心满怀地应对未来挑战加了一把劲，而中国最高领导层的鼓励更让他们备受鼓舞。"It has greatly motivated us to work together to accelerate the development of new quality productive forces in the future, and embrace the AI era," said Xu, who attended the symposium on Monday.2月17日，徐冠巨在参加座谈会后说道：“这极大地激励了我们携手共进，加快发展新质生产力，积极拥抱AI时代。”The gathering saw a strong presence of companies from technology and emerging sectors, with notable names including Huawei's Ren Zhengfei, BYD's Wang Chuanfu, Will Semiconductor's Yu Renrong, Unitree Robotics' Wang Xingxing and Xiaomi's Lei Jun.此次座谈会汇聚了众多科技和新兴行业的公司代表，包括华为技术有限公司首席执行官任正非、比亚迪股份有限公司董事长王传福、上海韦尔半导体股份有限公司董事长虞仁荣、杭州宇树科技有限公司首席执行官王兴兴、小米科技有限责任公司董事长雷军等知名企业家。Zhang Jun, chief economist at China Galaxy Securities, noted that some of the private enterprises that attended the symposium are not big in terms of business scale or revenue, but have strong growth potential.中国银河证券首席经济学家章俊指出，参加座谈会的部分民营企业虽然没有庞大的业务规模或高收入，但具有强大的增长潜力。"It reaffirmed private enterprises' past breakthroughs in new quality productive forces, while highlighting the government's determination to cultivate future industries," Zhang said.章俊表示：“这既肯定了过去民企在新质生产力相关领域的技术突破，又凸显了政府对培育未来产业的决心。”Observers said the participation of private enterprises from both traditional and emerging sectors showed the continuous emphasis China's top leadership places on the role of the manufacturing industry in the Chinese economy.观察人士称，传统行业和新兴行业的民营企业均参加了此次座谈会，表明中国最高领导层持续重视制造业在中国经济中的作用。Liu Yonghao, founder of New Hope Group, a leading enterprise in agricultural industrialization, told China Daily on Tuesday that technology not only flourishes in high-end manufacturing and AI sectors, but also drives innovative growth in traditional sectors such as agriculture.2月18日，农业产业化龙头企业新希望集团创始人刘永好接受《中国日报》采访时表示，技术发展不仅在高端制造、人工智能等方面取得成绩，也推动了农业等传统行业的创新增长。"Inspired by the top leadership's remarks, our company will capitalize on favorable policies and make efforts to propel further growth amid complex challenges," said Liu, who also attended the symposium.参加本次座谈会的刘永好说：“最高领导层的讲话让我们备受启发，我们公司会利用国家的好政策，在复杂局面下继续努力拼搏，推动企业更好地发展。”Recalling that the previous such symposium on private enterprises, which was presided over by President Xi in 2018, was followed by a three-year bull run in China's A-share market, Zhang, from China Galaxy Securities, said that Monday's meeting will "help enhance the confidence of market entities, dispel concerns about uncertainty and play a decisive role in stabilizing the market".中国银河证券首席经济学家章俊回忆，上一次由习近平主席主持的同等规格民营企业座谈会在2018年，会后中国A股市场迎来了时长3年的牛市。他表示，2月17日的座谈会将“有助于提振市场主体的信心，打消对不确定性的疑虑，对于稳定市场起到一锤定音的效果”。Xu Hongcai, a renowned economist and deputy head of the financial and economic affairs committee of the National People's Congress, said that Xi's remarks "conveyed a clear signal that even with the changing and volatile economic and trade policies of some foreign countries, China remains focused on high-quality economic development as always".著名经济学家、全国人大财政经济委员会副主任委员许宏才表示，习近平的讲话“传递了一个明确信号，即在其他国家经贸政策风云变幻的情况下，中国一如既往集中精力于高质量经济发展”。At Monday's symposium, Xi said the government's basic principles and policies concerning the development of the private economy have been incorporated into the system of socialism with Chinese characteristics and will consistently be upheld and fulfilled. "They cannot and will not be changed," he said.2月17日，习近平在座谈会上表示，政府对民营经济发展的基本方针政策已经纳入中国特色社会主义制度体系，将一以贯之坚持和落实。他表示：“这些不能变，也不会变。”This was in line with Xi's remarks at the 2018 symposium, during which he said the country would unswervingly encourage, support and guide the development of the nonpublic sector and support private enterprises to develop toward a broader stage.这与习近平在2018年座谈会上的讲话相呼应，当时他表示，国家将毫不动摇地鼓励、支持、引导非公有制经济发展，支持民营企业走向更加广阔的舞台。The stance was reaffirmed at the 2022 Central Economic Work Conference, which emphasized that promoting the private sector's growth is a "long-term strategy", rather than a short-term measure.2022年召开的中央经济工作会议再次明确这一立场，强调促进民营经济发展是“长期战略”，而非短期措施。In 2023, during the two sessions, the annual meetings of China's top legislative and political advisory bodies, Xi emphasized that the Party encouraged private enterprises and entrepreneurs to let go of their concerns and burdens and boldly pursue their development.2023年两会（中国最高立法机关和中国政治协商机构年度会议）期间，习近平强调，党鼓励民营企业和民营企业家消除顾虑，放下包袱，大胆发展。Xu, the renowned economist, said: "These instances show that China's reform policies are continuous and stable. A stable policy and a good business environment will further enhance private enterprises' confidence, consistently attract more foreign investment and promote sustained economic growth."著名经济学家许宏才表示：“这些事例表明，中国的改革政策是连续的、稳定的。稳定的政策和良好的营商环境将进一步提升民营企业的信心，将一以贯之吸引更多外商投资，促进经济的持续增长。”As of the end of September last year, China had over 55 million registered private companies, accounting for 92.3 percent of all businesses. They contribute more than half of the country's tax revenue, over 60 percent of GDP and over 80 percent of urban employment.截至2024年9月底，中国登记在册民营企业数量超过5500万户，占全国企业总量的92.3%。民营经济贡献了全国50%以上的税收、60%以上的国内生产总值、80%以上的城镇劳动就业。In recent years, the role of the private sector has become increasingly pivotal in driving technological innovations. For example, the rise of AI startup DeepSeek and its advanced large language model, Huawei's breakthroughs in domestically developed chips and operating systems, and Unitree Robotics' humanoid robots, which staged a dance with festive vibes at this year's China Media Group Spring Festival Gala on Chinese New Year's Eve.近年来，民营企业在驱动技术创新方面发挥着越来越重要的作用。例如，人工智能初创企业DeepSeek及其先进的大型语言模型崛起，华为在国产芯片和操作系统方面取得突破，以及宇树科技人形机器人今年除夕夜亮相，在央视春晚舞台上表演了充满节日氛围的舞蹈。Zhou Mi, a senior researcher at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation, said the latest efforts of the top leadership will further bolster policies.中国商务部国际贸易经济合作研究院高级研究员周密表示，最高领导层的最新努力将进一步推动政策落实。A package of policies is expected to be accelerated, which includes a law to promote the private sector, measures to advance mixed ownership reforms and efforts to encourage private enterprises to go global, he said.他预计，一系列政策将加快落地，包括推进民营经济促进法立法进程、推动混合所有制改革以及鼓励民营企业“走出去”。humanoidn.人形机器人；类人的生物

In the fall of 2024 198 countries from around the world came together in Azerbaijan, at COP29, to try and find solutions to the climate crisis. While the policy outcomes were disappointing, the stories of people from around the world were inspiring, even if they include a lot of pain and suffering. These stories help to connect us to our neighbors from around the world and these stories can help to reframe how Christians, especially those in America, can think about their role in the climate crisis and how to respond.  Additional Resources:  More in depth reporting on COP29 at Carbon Brief Katharine Hayhoe's Global Weirding Series Christian Climate Observers Program Reformed Journal Article by Colin BioLogos Common Question: Why Should Christians Care for Creation BioLogos Animated Video: Why Should Christians Care for Creation (video) Language of God Podcast Series: Creation Groans

Sean "Diddy" Combs, the 55-year-old music mogul, is currently detained at Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center, facing serious charges including sex trafficking and racketeering. Over the Christmas holiday, reports emerged alleging that Combs experienced a significant emotional breakdown, struggling to cope with spending the festive season behind bars. Sources claimed he requested medical attention, believing he was having a mental breakdown, but his request was denied by prison officials. Despite these reports, conflicting accounts suggest that Combs managed to calm himself through meditation techniques and is maintaining his composure under the challenging circumstances.Combs' incarceration has also visibly impacted his physical appearance. Observers noted that he appeared noticeably thinner and grayer during a recent court hearing, indicating the toll that imprisonment is taking on him. Despite the austere conditions, including basic meals and limited recreational activities, Combs has been described by fellow inmates and prison staff as well-liked and is reportedly engaging in activities such as playing cards and basketball to pass the time. His legal team continues to prepare for his upcoming trial scheduled for May 2025, while Combs maintains his innocence against all charges.(commercial at 8:38)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Diddy's huge prison 'meltdown' revealed, as 'sex trafficker' rapper remains in hellhole jail | Daily Mail Online

This Day in Legal History: King Louis XVI ExecutedOn January 21, 1793, King Louis XVI of France was executed by guillotine in Paris after being convicted of treason during the French Revolution. His trial was conducted by the National Convention, a revolutionary body tasked with dismantling the monarchy and establishing a republic. Accused of conspiring against the French people and aiding foreign powers to suppress the revolution, Louis faced mounting evidence, including secret correspondence discovered in the Tuileries Palace.  The Convention voted on his fate, and the verdict was close: 387 deputies supported his execution, while 334 opposed or suggested alternatives, such as imprisonment or exile. This slim margin highlighted deep divisions within the revolutionary government. On January 20, Louis was sentenced to death without delay. The following day, he was brought to the Place de la Révolution (now Place de la Concorde), where a large crowd gathered to witness the historic event.  Before his execution, Louis attempted to speak to the crowd but was drowned out by drum rolls. Moments later, the guillotine fell, marking the end of his reign and symbolizing the revolutionary shift in France from monarchy to republic. His death intensified political upheaval, leading to the radicalization of the revolution and the Reign of Terror. It also caused shockwaves across Europe, as monarchs in neighboring countries viewed the event as a direct threat to their own thrones.  The trial and execution of Louis XVI remain pivotal moments in legal history. They demonstrated the rise of the concept of sovereign accountability—placing a king on trial as a common citizen, judged by a revolutionary tribunal. This marked a turning point in the relationship between rulers and their subjects, challenging the divine right of kings and setting a precedent for constitutional governance.U.S. President Donald Trump announced the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), an advisory group intended to propose significant cuts to the federal government, including eliminating agencies and reducing federal jobs by 75%. Co-led by Tesla CEO Elon Musk and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, the group has no formal power to implement its proposals. Legal challenges emerged immediately after the announcement, with groups like National Security Counselors and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington arguing the initiative violates federal advisory committee regulations. Critics question DOGE's legal status and operational transparency, with additional lawsuits filed by unions and public health organizations. Meanwhile, Ramaswamy appears to be stepping away from the initiative to pursue a gubernatorial campaign in Ohio. Advisory groups aimed at government efficiency have a mixed history; a similar effort under President Ronald Reagan produced limited results. Observers remain skeptical of DOGE's potential impact, given its vague structure and controversial proposals.Trump creates "DOGE" advisory group, attracting instant lawsuits | ReutersIn his final hours as president, Joe Biden issued a series of preemptive pardons, including for family members and critics of incoming President Donald Trump. The pardons protected prominent figures such as Gen. Mark Milley, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and members of Congress involved in the January 6 investigation. Biden also pardoned his siblings and their spouses, citing a desire to shield them from potential politically motivated retaliation by Trump. The move, unprecedented in scope, aimed to prevent the reputational and financial damage of investigations Biden described as baseless and partisan.Biden's decision was influenced by Trump's public threats to target his adversaries upon taking office. Critics, including Trump's allies, condemned the pardons as an abuse of executive power, while recipients like Milley and Fauci expressed gratitude for the protection. Biden emphasized that the pardons did not imply guilt but were a safeguard against potential retribution.  Some legal experts questioned the effectiveness of the pardons, noting they only apply to federal criminal charges and could make recipients more vulnerable to testimony demands in other proceedings. Biden acknowledged the controversial nature of the decision but deemed it necessary under what he called "exceptional circumstances." The pardons have sparked debate over their implications for future presidential clemency.Biden issues preemptive pardons for Trump critics and Biden family members | CNN PoliticsJames McHenry, a long-time immigration attorney with the U.S. Justice Department, has been appointed as acting attorney general while awaiting Senate confirmation of President Donald Trump's nominee, Pam Bondi.

In interpersonal communication, humans tend to mimic one another verbally and non-verbally, producing beneficial outcomes for the mimicker. The growth in online communication has moved many manager-customer interactions from in-person to a virtual environment visible to others. Thus, we investigate whether and how managers' conscious mimicking of wording from consumers' online reviews affects the purchase intentions of third-party readers of the exchange. We propose that mimicking is a signal of the firm's attentiveness that increases trust, resulting in increased purchase intentions. A series of experimental studies support this hypothesis under varying conditions, such as whether the valence of the customer's communication is positive or negative, or the frequency of the use of mimicry varies. An examination of field data finds that the use of mimicry increases the ratings of subsequent reviews. Thus, we provide managers with a straightforward tool that can increase consumer trust, purchase intentions, and subsequent review ratings.

Nathan Hochman had barely unpacked his office when his tenure as Los Angeles County District Attorney began with a seismic jolt. In his first major act, he dismissed two high-ranking deputies, Nancy Theberge and Brock Lunsford, who had become central figures in the simmering controversy surrounding Lyle and Erik Menendez. The Menendez brothers, infamous for the brutal 1989 murders of their parents, were the focus of a contentious resentencing appeal that had ignited public and legal debate alike. Hochman's decisive move sent shockwaves through the legal community, marking a clear departure from the policies of his predecessor, George Gascon. Theberge and Lunsford had been instrumental in a 57-page appeal filed just weeks earlier, advocating for a reduction in the brothers' life sentences without the possibility of parole. Their argument rested on evidence of rehabilitation. The proposed revision—50 years to life—would have made the Menendez brothers immediately eligible for parole after 34 years of incarceration. Critics lambasted the move as a slap in the face to justice, reigniting the fierce divide that had characterized public opinion since the sensational trial in the mid-1990s. Hochman's stance was unequivocal. He publicly criticized Gascon's approach to the Menendez case, accusing him of leveraging high-profile cases for political gain. By removing Theberge and Lunsford from their positions, Hochman made it clear that his administration would be taking a different path. Theberge, who had led the resentencing unit under Gascon, was transferred to the office of the Alternate Public Defender, while Lunsford was reassigned within the DA's office. These personnel shifts signaled a stark policy pivot—one that appeared to prioritize retribution over rehabilitation. Yet the personnel changes only deepened the intrigue. Shortly after Hochman's announcement, the DA's office declared that Antonio Aguilar would take over as head of the resentencing unit and the post-conviction and discovery division. However, Aguilar denied the appointment, despite his name being listed on the official roster of new appointments. The office, tight-lipped as ever, declined to clarify the discrepancy, leaving Observers speculated about the true state of affairs within the DA's administration. This lack of transparency only added fuel to the growing skepticism about Hochman's intentions and the broader direction of his administration.   The Menendez brothers' resentencing hearing, initially scheduled for mid-December, became another casualty of the administrative upheaval. Judge Michael Jesic postponed the hearing to late January, citing the need to give Hochman's team sufficient time to familiarize themselves with the voluminous case file. This delay added another layer of uncertainty to an already convoluted saga. Hochman now faced a critical decision: whether to proceed with the original recommendation for resentencing or to withdraw it, provided he could present a legitimate reason for doing so. Either choice carried significant risks, not only for the Menendez brothers but also for the credibility of the DA's office under its new leadership. With public scrutiny intensifying, Hochman's next move could set a precedent for how his tenure would be judged.   Meanwhile, Mark Geragos, the brothers' high-profile attorney, had been busy mounting a parallel offensive. Geragos filed a habeas corpus petition that introduced new evidence allegedly corroborating the brothers' claims of sexual abuse by their father. This revelation, Geragos argued, warranted a new trial. The petition awaited a response from the DA's office, which had initially been due in late November but requested an extension until December 20. The delay only heightened the tension, as all parties braced for a showdown in the courtroom. Geragos's strategy was clear: keep the focus on the alleged abuse and its potential impact on the original trial's outcome. This approach not only put pressure on Hochman but also revived public interest in the case, ensuring that every development was scrutinized by the media.   Complicating matters further was the Menendez brothers' clemency appeal to Governor Gavin Newsom. The governor deferred any action, citing respect for Hochman's review of the case. The clemency request represented a long-shot bid for freedom, but it also underscored the high stakes involved. Clemency, a rarely granted relief, would require compelling evidence of miscarriage of justice, rehabilitation, or extenuating circumstances. Newsom's decision to defer highlighted the gravity of the situation and the potential political ramifications of any action he might take. For the brothers, it was a sliver of hope in an otherwise daunting legal landscape.   The January 30–31 hearing loomed large on the horizon, poised to become a pivotal moment not just for the Menendez brothers but for the broader conversation about justice, rehabilitation, and the legacy of one of the most notorious cases in American legal history. The outcome of this hearing could redefine the narrative surrounding the Menendez brothers, shifting it from one of cold-blooded killers to victims of a deeply dysfunctional family dynamic. However, such a shift would not come easily. The prosecution's team was expected to vigorously oppose any motion that might appear to lessen the severity of the brothers' crimes.   What began as a family tragedy has evolved into a multifaceted legal drama, replete with power struggles, moral quandaries, and the ever-present specter of public scrutiny. Hochman's early moves have set the stage for a high-stakes confrontation, one that promises to test the limits of justice and redemption in a system often criticized for its rigidity. As the Menendez brothers await their day in court, the question remains: will this new chapter bring closure to a case that has haunted the public imagination for decades, or will it only deepen the mystery?   Adding to the drama is the renewed cultural fascination with the case, spurred in part by the Netflix series "Monsters," which revisited the Menendez brothers' story in a broader context of sensationalized family crimes. The series has reignited debates over the fairness of the original trial, the admissibility of abuse claims, and the role of public opinion in shaping legal outcomes. For many, the Menendez case serves as a litmus test for how society balances the scales of justice against the backdrop of human complexity. This renewed attention has amplified the stakes for all involved, from the DA's office to the defense team, and even the public officials who might be drawn into the fray.   As the clock ticks down to the January hearing, one thing is certain: the Menendez brothers' story is far from over. With new evidence, shifting legal strategies, and a public hungry for resolution, the next chapter promises to be as riveting and consequential as the events that have already unfolded. The question of justice—what it means, who deserves it, and how it should be administered—looms large, casting a shadow over the proceedings and ensuring that this case will remain etched in the annals of American legal history.

Nathan Hochman had barely unpacked his office when his tenure as Los Angeles County District Attorney began with a seismic jolt. In his first major act, he dismissed two high-ranking deputies, Nancy Theberge and Brock Lunsford, who had become central figures in the simmering controversy surrounding Lyle and Erik Menendez. The Menendez brothers, infamous for the brutal 1989 murders of their parents, were the focus of a contentious resentencing appeal that had ignited public and legal debate alike. Hochman's decisive move sent shockwaves through the legal community, marking a clear departure from the policies of his predecessor, George Gascon. Theberge and Lunsford had been instrumental in a 57-page appeal filed just weeks earlier, advocating for a reduction in the brothers' life sentences without the possibility of parole. Their argument rested on evidence of rehabilitation. The proposed revision—50 years to life—would have made the Menendez brothers immediately eligible for parole after 34 years of incarceration. Critics lambasted the move as a slap in the face to justice, reigniting the fierce divide that had characterized public opinion since the sensational trial in the mid-1990s. Hochman's stance was unequivocal. He publicly criticized Gascon's approach to the Menendez case, accusing him of leveraging high-profile cases for political gain. By removing Theberge and Lunsford from their positions, Hochman made it clear that his administration would be taking a different path. Theberge, who had led the resentencing unit under Gascon, was transferred to the office of the Alternate Public Defender, while Lunsford was reassigned within the DA's office. These personnel shifts signaled a stark policy pivot—one that appeared to prioritize retribution over rehabilitation. Yet the personnel changes only deepened the intrigue. Shortly after Hochman's announcement, the DA's office declared that Antonio Aguilar would take over as head of the resentencing unit and the post-conviction and discovery division. However, Aguilar denied the appointment, despite his name being listed on the official roster of new appointments. The office, tight-lipped as ever, declined to clarify the discrepancy, leaving Observers speculated about the true state of affairs within the DA's administration. This lack of transparency only added fuel to the growing skepticism about Hochman's intentions and the broader direction of his administration.   The Menendez brothers' resentencing hearing, initially scheduled for mid-December, became another casualty of the administrative upheaval. Judge Michael Jesic postponed the hearing to late January, citing the need to give Hochman's team sufficient time to familiarize themselves with the voluminous case file. This delay added another layer of uncertainty to an already convoluted saga. Hochman now faced a critical decision: whether to proceed with the original recommendation for resentencing or to withdraw it, provided he could present a legitimate reason for doing so. Either choice carried significant risks, not only for the Menendez brothers but also for the credibility of the DA's office under its new leadership. With public scrutiny intensifying, Hochman's next move could set a precedent for how his tenure would be judged.   Meanwhile, Mark Geragos, the brothers' high-profile attorney, had been busy mounting a parallel offensive. Geragos filed a habeas corpus petition that introduced new evidence allegedly corroborating the brothers' claims of sexual abuse by their father. This revelation, Geragos argued, warranted a new trial. The petition awaited a response from the DA's office, which had initially been due in late November but requested an extension until December 20. The delay only heightened the tension, as all parties braced for a showdown in the courtroom. Geragos's strategy was clear: keep the focus on the alleged abuse and its potential impact on the original trial's outcome. This approach not only put pressure on Hochman but also revived public interest in the case, ensuring that every development was scrutinized by the media.   Complicating matters further was the Menendez brothers' clemency appeal to Governor Gavin Newsom. The governor deferred any action, citing respect for Hochman's review of the case. The clemency request represented a long-shot bid for freedom, but it also underscored the high stakes involved.
