Vi gjenpubliserer derfor den prisvinnenede episoden hvor Solveig Kloppen var på besøk hos gutta i Oslo fengsel.Etter å ha sett utallige timer med Solveig Kloppen som programleder på "Alle mot Alle" og "Norske talenter" på cella, fikk gutta i Oslo Fengsel endelig møte henne i levende live. Det ble en prat om Solveigs kriminelle fortid, det kleineste hun har gjort på tv, og hvordan hun takler kriser i livet. Som seg hør og bør ble også dronningen av tøysete spørrekonkurranser utsatt for røvernes fengsels-quiz!

I dag er en tredel av alle par samboere. Ikke alle tenker igjennom hvilke gjensidige økonomiske forpliktelser som skal gjelde i samlivet, eller hva som skjer om forholdet ryker eller partneren dør. Et forslag til en samboerlov er lagt frem, hva foreslås der?I samtalen: Jusprofessor Katrine K. Fredwall fra Universitetet i Oslo og forsker i Statistisk sentralbyrå Kenneth A. Wiik.Programleder er Jorunn Kanestrøm

Fra 2019 til 2023 behandlet Legevakten i Oslo flere enn 18 000 rusrelaterte forgiftninger, hvorav nesten halvparten skyldes etanol. Insidensen av kokainforgiftningene doblet seg, ketaminforgiftninger ble mer enn tidoblet og stadig flere kvinner blir behandlet for rusrelaterte forgiftninger. Det fremkommer i en originalartikkel publisert i Tidsskriftet. I ukens episode dykker vi ned i tallmaterialet til studien gjennomført ved Oslo legevakt sammen med to av forfatterne, medisinstudent Karen Sørbø Larsen og spesialist i allmennmedisin Odd-Martin Vallersnes. Vi ser på den markante økningen av enkelte rusmiddelforgiftninger, hva som kan være årsaken og hvordan det blir håndtert på Legevakten i Oslo. Artikkelen «Rusrelaterte forgiftninger behandlet ved Legevakten i Oslo 2019–23» er skrevet av Karen Sørbø Larsen, Mette Brekke og Odd Martin Vallersnes. Den kan leses på tidsskriftet.no: https://tidsskriftet.no/2025/10/originalartikkel/rusrelaterte-forgiftninger-behandlet-ved-legevakten-i-oslo-2019-23 Tilbakemeldinger kan sendes til stetoskopet@tidsskriftet.no.

No American runner made more noise in 2025 than Nico Young.The 23-year-old prodigy smashed the 5,000m American record, claimed his first national title, and battled the world's best in Tokyo. In June, he stormed through the Bislett Games in Oslo, running 12:45.27 for 5,000 meters, which was a new American record. Barely two months later, he claimed his first U.S. title at 10,000 meters in Eugene, clocking 29:02.12 to solidify his dominance on home soil. Then, on the world's biggest stage in Tokyo, Young placed fifth in the 10,000m at the 2025 World Championships, closing his breakout season in a dynamic way.Young's rise has been meteoric but methodical. A former NCAA champion from Northern Arizona University, he first stunned the sport in 2024 by debuting at 26:52.72 for 10,000 meters–an NCAA and American collegiate record–then qualifying for the 2024 Paris Olympics, where he finished 12th. Turning pro with Adidas that summer, he entered 2025 with sharper focus and the freedom to train through longer, uninterrupted blocks under coach Mike Smith in Flagstaff, Arizona.Now a national champion, world finalist, and record holder, Young owns personal bests of 12:45.27 (5,000m), 26:52.72 (10,000m), and 7:37.73 (3,000m). His performances are redefining what's possible for American distance runners, and he's doing it with trademark composure and humility.Tap into the Nico Young Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

Se ha cumplido un mes desde que entró en vigor un frágil cese el fuego en Gaza. Tanto en Israel como en Palestina esperan que la paz regional se perpetúe y muchos tienen grandes expectativas sobre una solución política duradera en el enclave y en Cisjordania también. RFI recibió en sus estudios al líder del movimiento de no violencia palestino, un proyecto político basado en el pacifismo como factor de cambio. Ali Abu Awwad conoce la violencia, porque la vivió en carne propia. Oriundo de un pueblo cerca de Hebrón, estuvo encarcelado por haber participado en la primera Intifada. Luego fue herido tras recibir disparos del ejército israelí durante la segunda Intifada. A su hermano lo mató un soldado en un retén.  "Mi madre y yo estuvimos encarcelados. Israel nos prohibía vernos entonces hicimos una huelga de hambre de 17 días y funcionó", dice a RFI, explicando que así empezó a interesarse en el concepto de la no violencia como una posibilidad. "Lo hice no por empatía por el ser humano sino como vía política eficaz para liberar a los palestinos. Tras perder a mi hermano conocí familias israelíes en duelo que me cambiaron la vida. Me di cuenta que ambos somos víctimas y nos victimizamos, compitiendo en la escala de sufrimiento. Una vez que te das cuenta de esto entiendes que la no violencia no es solo una idea política sino que es una estrategia exitosa a la que ambos bandos se pueden comprometer", asegura. "Algunos colonos están dispuestos a dialogar" Abu Awwad fundó el movimiento palestino no violento Taghyeer, que significa "cambio". Su modelo busca la emergencia de un Estado palestino reconciliado con su vecino, incluso con los colonos israelíes cuya violencia ha aumentado en Cisjordania, territorio que algunos ministros de Netanyahu han llamado a anexionar. "A la vez que el gobierno a ha dado a los colonos un amparo para humillar y destruir vidas palestinas, también he visto soldados israelíes ser golpeados por ellos. No digo que en el futuro los colonos serán pacifistas. Pero no debemos asimilar al pueblo judío o a todos los israelíes residentes en Cisjordania a estos colonos", argumenta el activista. "Cuando aceptamos una solución de dos Estados, aceptamos recibir solo el 22% del territorio y luego las colonias empezaron a cambiar esa geografía. Y por otro lado debo decir que sí, algunos colonos están dispuestos a dialogar, aunque la solución de dos Estados tenga un alto costo político para ellos", afirma Abu Awwad, quien se dio a conocer en parte por reunirse con residentes de colonias israelíes en sus propias salas. "Los palestinos no tenemos problema con que haya judíos viviendo en Palestina. El problema es la ocupación", explica. Un mensaje de paz en un entorno de violencia En una realidad tan violenta, ¿qué tan díficil es promover la perspectiva de Ali Abu Awwad? El activista cree que es la única vía. "El ejército israelí entra en pánico ante la no violencia. Es fácil agredirnos cuando respondemos atacando. Llevamos años luchando militarmente. Antes de los acuerdos de Oslo, los palestinos resistíamos con las armas. Me entrenaron a los 15 años a usar una kalachnikov", recuerda. "Pero esta lucha debe tener un cimiento y no debemos perder nuestro compás moral por la libertad. Después del 7 de octubre, además, Israel debe aprender una dolorosa lección: no se puede seguir ignorando a los palestinos detrás de un muro, retenes y colonias. Eso no garantiza su seguridad, debe entenderlo". Ali Abu Awwad aboga además por cambio de liderazgo político tanto en Israel como en la Autoridad Palestina.

Ted och Kaj talar om fåglars anatomi. Ted har varit i Oslo och Kaj har funderat på bönesvar.

Den ene er fra Bærum – den andre fra Dalen i Telemark. I dag driver Thorstein Sjursen og Anders Storøygard noe så sjeldent som et ekte skredderverksted i Oslo. Selv har de en forkjærlighet for komfort i klesveien, som de mener får folk til å slappe av og dermed også veien til å se bedre ut. Hva etterspør kundene deres? Hva koster en skreddersydd dress? Og hva skjedde da kong Olav fikk nei til svar da han etterspurte en bunad hos en skredder fra Gol – tross invitasjon til slottsmiddag? Stikkord: Kongevognen!

Simon Brennstrøm startet som båtboer i Tromsø, og da nye utfordringer kallet i Oslo satt han seil sydover. Turen langs norskekysten ble en stor opplevelse med god tid og mange fine minner. Han startet i juni og kom til Kongen Marina i Oslo i oktober, men kombinerte seilturen med jobbturnus slik at han la igjen båten i utvalgte havner på veien syd. Nå bor han i båten i Oslo - og drømmer om flere turer. Denne podcasten er en del av Norges Seilforbunds satsning på turseiling, og ikke minst 100 Nautiske Klubben. Her kan du høre de tidligere podcastene fra Explore North. Du kan også høre podcastene på din mobil via iTunes, Spotify og andre plattformer. Er du på jakt etter inspirasjon til å seile mer i hjemlige farvann så anbefales, uten å rødme, boken Norske kystperler – hvordan og hvorfor seile verdens vakreste kyst. Jeg har publisert boken Kunsten å ligge på svai. Du finner den på explorenorth.no/books Du kan også støtte produksjonen av disse podcastene slik at jeg kan produsere mange flere til inspirasjon og nytte.

Welcome to Episode 400!! Dave Hill is a comedian, writer, musician, actor, radio host, and man-about-town originally from Cleveland, Ohio but now living in New York City in a totally sweet apartment with a party deck and everything. Hot chicks come over to hang out and eat cheese plates and stuff with him all the time and it's awesome. Anyway, on the show business front, Dave has appeared on Netflix's The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Adult Swim's Joe Pera Talks with You Amazon's The Tick, Peacock TV's Girls5Eva, Comedy Central's @midnight and Inside Amy Schumer programs, TBS' Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, TV Land's The Jim Gaffigan Show, and TruTV's Comedy Knockout among a bunch of others. He is a frequent on-air host for HBO and Cinemax and has been on channels like MTV, VH1, BBC-America, and the Sundance Channel a whole bunch too. Dave also starred in his own television program The King of Miami on the Mojo Network, which was cancelled even though Dave really liked it. The show also aired in the United Kingdom on Sky TV's Film24 Channel. And you can still watch The King of Miami on Hulu too, which Dave is super pumped about. Oh, and Dave was a correspondent on Hoppus on Music starring Blink 182's Mark Hoppus on the Fuse channel, which ruled. Dave has been on other shows and in obscure movies too but let's keep moving for now. Dave performs live comedy over the world and has appeared at such festivals as the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, SXSW, San Francisco Sketchfest, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Sasquatch Festival, Bumbershoot, Bonnaroo, the Bridgetown Comedy Festival in Portland, the Crap Comedy Festival in Oslo, Outside Lands in San Francisco, and then some other ones too. He has also performed comedy at Sing Sing Correctional Facility twice and even ripped some guitar solos inside a Mexican prison a couple times too. In 2007, Variety magazine named Dave one of their “10 Comedians to Watch,” something he still won't shut up about. Some things are hard to let go of. Dave hosted his own radio show The Goddamn Dave Hill Show on WFMU in Jersey City, New Jersey every Monday night from 9pm to midnight for years and now hosts the podcast Dave Hill's Podcasting Incident, which is also broadcast on the UK's Fubar Radio, So...You're Canadian with Dave Hill, and History Fluffer, on which he is joined by Jim Biederman, Jodi Lennon, and Chris Gersbeck. Dave is also a frequent contributor to public radio's Live from Here with Chris Thile and  This American Life. He has also appeared on podcasts like WTF with Marc Maron, The Adam Carolla Show, The Nerdist, and then roughly 78 other ones besides those. Dave is the author of four books, including his brand new book The Awesome Game: One Man's Incredible, Globe-Crushing Hockey Odyssey, in addition to Parking the Moose (Doubleday Canada/Penguin Random House 2019), Tasteful Nudes (St. Martins Press, 2012) and Dave Hill Doesn't Live Here Anymore (Blue Rider Press 2016). He has also written for the New York Times, GQ, Salon, The Paris Review, McSweeney's, New York Observer, The Cleveland Plain Dealer, VICE, Guitar World, and a bunch of other places too. Comedy legend Dick Cavett called Dave “a major figure among American comic writers, past and present,” which is pretty much the coolest thing that has ever happened as far as Dave is concerned. Dave is also a musician who currently sings and plays guitar in the power pop band Valley Lodge, whose song “Go” is the theme song to HBO's Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, and the psych/garage rock band Painted Doll. He was also a member of Cleveland rock bands Sons of Elvis and Cobra Verde as well as Diamondsnake, a heavy metal band with Moby. Additionally, Dave has played guitar for Walter Schreifels and muscle metal band Thor and bass for Lucy Wainwright Roche and former Faith No More singer Chuck Mosley. He also contributed musical scores to films such as Dirty Deeds,

Dette var dumt av meg. Jeg trenger å hvile."En: "Okay, you guys were right. This was silly of me. I need to rest."No: "Endelig," sa Ingrid og smilte mens hun hjalp ham til å sette seg på benken.En: "Finally," said Ingrid and smiled as she helped him to sit on the bench.No: "Vi kan sitte her en stund. Se på folk. Prate."En: "We can sit here for a while. Watch people. Chat."No: Ola slo seg ned ved siden av dem.En: Ola settled down next to them.No: "Jeg tar med kanelboller neste gang, da blir hvilen enda bedre."En: "I'll bring cinnamon buns next time, then the rest will be even better."No: Sindre smilte svakt og lente seg tilbake.En: Sindre smiled faintly and leaned back.No: "Jeg lærte noe i dag. Jeg trenger å lytte til kroppen min. Ingen høstløp er verdt en skade."En: "I learned something today. I need to listen to my body. No autumn run is worth an injury."No: Så satt de der, lyttet til lydene av parken og delte latter mens solen sakte begynte å gå ned over Oslo.En: So they sat there, listened to the sounds of the park, and shared laughter as the sun slowly began to set over Oslo.No: Sindre, Ingrid, og Ola visste at dagen hadde gitt dem mer enn bare en vanlig joggetur; den hadde gitt dem en leksjon i vennskap og fornuft.En: Sindre, Ingrid, and Ola knew that the day had given them more than just an ordinary jog; it had given them a lesson in friendship and wisdom.No: Og det var en viktig lærdom.En: And that was an important lesson.

Denne uken tar Silje og Pia opp et tema som er viktig, men også sårbart. En ny studie viser nemlig at spiseforstyrrelser er langt vanligere blant trenere og fitnessprofesjonelle enn i befolkningen ellers. Hvorfor er det sånn? Handler det om kroppspress eller usynlige bransjekrav?Vi deler egne erfaringer, tar også opp problemstillingen rundt hvordan de som selv sliter skal kunne veilede andre.Helt klart et touchy tema, og vi har nok ikke alle de riktige svarene. Likevel mener vi at tematikken er såpass viktig, så vi tar sjansen på å belyse den etter beste evne. .Ellers byr episode på gode treningsopplevelser fra hver sin kant der Pia har hatt løpeevent i Oslo og Silje viber etter en tur på MasterMania i Trondheim.

My Story   Talk 31   Life after Mattersey (1) Welcome to Talk 31 in our series where I'm reflecting on God's goodness to me throughout my life. In this talk I shall begin to talk about our life and ministry after we left Mattersey. I'll explain why I decided to retire from Mattersey when I did and why we moved to Devon. I'll describe my continuing involvement with Mattersey for a further 12 years and conclude by outlining our wider ministry in Europe.   Why I decided to retire when I did In 2004 both Eileen and I had reached the age of 65. As was customary for women at that time, Eileen had retired as Matron of the College five years previously and I had told the Lord that, unless he clearly showed me that I was to stay on, I would retire as Principal when I was 65. First and foremost, we both wanted only to do what the Lord wanted and as we prayed about it became convinced that the time was right for our departure.   Our decision was based on several facts. The Lord had not given us any indication that I should stay on, and he had clearly shown me that the man who would be appointed as my successor would be the man of his choosing. And, as I mentioned in an earlier talk, I had already discussed the matter with other leaders who had agreed with me that the timing was right.   It was not as if my relationship with Mattersey was at an end. I was not retiring from Mattersey. I was retiring as its Principal.  Increasing requests for my ministry overseas had meant that a decision had to be made. I could not do justice to my role as Principal and accept so many invitations to minister elsewhere. But that did not mean that I could not continue to teach in the College as a visiting lecturer, and, at the kind invitation of successive principals, I continued to do so for another 12 years.   Why we moved to Devon Of course we had always known that we would have to move because the house we were living in belonged to the College and would be needed by my successor. And we knew that we would have to move immediately. That's why we were considering our options two or three years beforehand.   Colin Whittaker had written to me encouraging me to move right away from Mattersey and Eileen and I both felt that this would be wise. For one thing, the new principal would almost certainly want to make some changes and it would be easier both for him and us if we were not living close by and being asked by our friends in the local church if we approved! Apart from that, our first consideration, wherever we moved, was to be sure that there was a good local AoG church within easy reach where we could become members. Of course, there were plenty of places like that all over the country, so why did we choose Devon? One option might be to move near to one of our children, but as they were all serving the Lord in different parts of the country and might move on at any time, that might not be the wisest course of action.   So we felt it would be better both for them and for us if we were to move to a part of the country where the grandchildren would enjoy coming for their holidays. And we could think of no better place than Devon. I had been there on holiday as a teenager, and it was there that I had felt God calling me to the ministry. We knew that there were three AoG churches in Torbay, one in Torquay, one in Paignton, and one in Brixham, where Bob Hyde, one of our former students, was the full-time pastor and leader of the ministry team.  Bob had invited me down to minister on at least two occasions and we were very happy with the way the church was structured and with the spiritual atmosphere in the meetings.   Neither of the other churches had invited us to minister and so we knew very little about them, so we started to seriously consider fellowshipping with the Brixham assembly if we were able to afford to move into the Torbay area. I phoned Bob and asked if he would be happy about this, explaining that I was not looking for any position in the church and that my ministry would be further afield.   For two or three years we had been looking at property prices in the area and, as it was not convenient to make regular 600 mile round trips to view properties as they came on the market, decided on a new property that was to be built in Paignton. We were able to view one just like it and choose a plot where another was to be built – a four-bedroom house with spectacular views over open countryside and the sea, the nearest beach being only a ten-minute drive away.   We decided very quickly that this would be the house for us and, because of God's wonderful provision, were able to buy it in 2003 and move in immediately after we retired from Mattersey in July 2004. We spent ten very happy years there until we felt the Lord prompting us to move into Brixham to be nearer to the church in 2013, more of which later. Meanwhile I continued to teach at Mattersey and expand our travelling ministry overseas.   Continuing Ministry at Mattersey It was always a great joy to revisit Mattersey each year to teach various M.Th. courses, specialising on The Baptism in the Holy Spirit, Spiritual Gifts, and Divine Healing. Each time we stayed with our friends, William and Anthea Kay who were still living close to Mattersey and enjoyed renewed fellowship with them.   It was on one such occasion, in September 2005, that Eileen was involved in a serious accident. I was teaching a combined class of students in the College chapel when I was surprised to see Dr Dave Allen come in at the back. He walked quietly forward and approached me on the platform. Then he whispered to me,   You need to go. Eileen is all right, but she's been involved in an accident. I'll take over here. They'll tell you more in the office.   The accident had happened less than a mile outside Mattersey on the Retford Road. Someone, I don't remember who, drove me there immediately and the first thing I saw was a fire engine and an ambulance. I was so glad that Dave Allen had already told me that Eileen was all right, or I would almost certainly have feared the worst. I later discovered a voice-mail message on my phone, which had been switched onto silent while I was lecturing. It was Eileen saying,   David, I've been in an accident. You need to come. I can't breathe…   … and her voice petered out. I'm so grateful that I didn't receive that message until after I knew she was all right. It was the airbag that had saved her, but the pressure of it was causing the difficulty in her breathing.   The accident was not Eileen's fault. She was driving into Retford to do some shopping when another car coming in the opposite direction overtook a cyclist on a blind bend and crashed head-on into Eileen. As both cars were probably travelling at 50 m.p.h., the full force of the impact would have been about 100 m.p.h. Both cars were a write-off and the other driver was told that she would probably never walk again as a result of the injuries she suffered. Eileen escaped with two cracked ribs from which she recovered relatively quickly.   Our insurance company provided a courtesy car for us and a few days later we drove home to Devon after I had finished the series of lectures I had been giving. Fortunately, we had enough money to buy a replacement vehicle without waiting for the insurance settlement to come through, as less than a week later I was committed to teach an MA course at the Continental Theological Seminary in Brussels. We were both so grateful for the loving care of Trude and Sylve, twin sisters from our church in Brixham who looked after Eileen during my absence. I have always been amazed at Eileen's patience and fortitude in situations like this and the courage she displayed in face of adversity. I have already mentioned this when speaking about the accident which prevented her from travelling with me to Burkina Faso. But these qualities became even more evident in later life about which I will say more in a later talk.    A Wider Ministry Apart from my continuing input at Mattersey in the years that followed our departure to Devon in 2004, much of my ministry involved teaching in Bible Colleges and speaking at National Conferences overseas. Invitations came from former students and because of contacts through EPTA, PEF, and the PWF. Eileen was usually able to accompany me and between 2005 and 2012 I ministered in churches, colleges and conferences in Belgium, Ethiopia, Finland, France, Germany, Ghana, India, Ireland, Luxembourg, Madeira, Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Portugal, Réunion, Slovakia, South Africa, Sweden, and Ukraine. In this talk we'll just be referring to countries in Europe.   Some of these places I visited only once, while others, like Finland and Belgium, were countries where I taught in their Bible colleges annually. The subject was almost invariably connected with the work of the Holy Spirit – his person and work, the baptism in the Spirit, spiritual gifts, and healing. Of particular importance was the time I spent with pastors and national leaders sharing with them on how to encourage spiritual gifts in the local church.   Places I visited only once during these years were Sweden (05), Ukraine (06), Poland (07), and Slovakia (08). Eileen accompanied me on the trips to Sweden, for a week's teaching in Kristinehamn, and Slovakia, for an EPTA conference in the vicinity of Bratislava. I travelled unaccompanied to Poland to teach for a week in the Warsaw Theological Seminary and preach in the local Pentecostal church.   But when I visited Ukraine I was part of a three-man team from our church in Brixham.  As it was my first (and only) visit, Bob Hyde and Mark Goodyear, both of whom had been before, let me do most of the teaching. In all the churches we visited the subject they asked me to speak on was spiritual gifts. There, as is sadly the case in so many places elsewhere, there is very little teaching on this important subject, so when the opportunity was given in each church, at the end of the meeting the people flocked forward for prayer.   Visits I made to Ireland (06, 07, 08) were mainly in connection with my new role as a member of the Board of Governors of the Irish AoG Bible College in Greystones, a seaside village a few miles south of Dublin, where Daniel Caldwell, a former Mattersey student was now the Principal and where several other Mattersey graduates like Roy Leith and Sandy Tutty were now involved . I also had the privilege of preaching at their graduation service in September 07.   Eileen and I had often visited our friends John and Ann Leese in Luxembourg as we were en route for our holidays in France or Germany and were always grateful for their hospitality. And in 2006 I was asked to be the guest speaker at their church's weekend retreat held in Arlon in nearby Belgium. It was always a joy to renew fellowship with our friends from that wonderful church. I also preached there in September 2012 after teaching at CTS in Brussels and before driving on for a week's teaching in churches in the Paris area of France.   Over a period of about 20 years we regularly went to France for our holidays and I would often end up preaching in one of the ADD (AoG) churches there. I don't have detailed dates for these occasions, but I remember preaching in Auch, Bordeaux, Clermont Ferrand, Metz, Mourrenx, Toulouse, and Versailles, sometimes with less than 24 hours notice! But perhaps the most interesting part of France we ever visited was the Ile de la Réunion.  To which I will return next time.   The countries I visited most frequently were Germany (3x), Portugal (4x), Belgium (8x), and Finland (11x). With the exception of Germany, this was because I was annually teaching in their Bible Colleges. Having said that, in 2009 I did teach for a week at Kniebis in the Black Forest at the European Theological Seminary, a beautiful college belonging to the Church of God, where the EPTA conference was to be held the following week.   And in 2007, after attending a PEF related conference in Oslo, Norway, we flew to Germany to conduct seminars at the national pastors' conference of the BFP (Bund Freikirchlicher Pfingstgemeinden), the nearest equivalent to the AoG in Germany. It was also in Oslo that I bumped into Werner Fraas, the president of the Volksmission group of German churches and was invited to conduct a tour of their churches in southern Germany in 2008. Eileen always remembered this well as we slept in a least ten different beds during the course of two weeks' ministry there before driving on to the EPTA conference in Slovakia.   I first visited Portugal in 1982 for an EPTA conference, but it was many years later that I had the opportunity to teach in their Bible College and preach in their churches. Harry Osland was an American missionary who, at the time, was director of the Portuguese Bible College in Fanhoes near Lisbon. It so happened that in 2006 he was in an MA class I was teaching in Belgium at the Continental Theological Seminary and he asked me if I would be willing to come to teach in Portugal.   So for three years (07, 08, and 09) I spent a week or so in Portugal, teaching in their college and preaching in their churches. Harry not only organised the itinerary for me but also arranged for several of my books to be translated into Portuguese. He and his wife Beth became good friends and Eileen and I really appreciated their kindness and hospitality.   Another contact I had with Portugal was Reginaldo Azevedo de Melo, a Brazilian brother based in Portugal who came to Mattersey as one of our students. With the cooperation of Pastor Luis Reis, who knew me through PEF, after he graduated Reginaldo arranged an itinerary for me preaching in several churches.   Our trips the Portugal gave us a taste for Portuguese cuisine, something we also experienced in Madeira, a Portuguese overseas territory, and popular holiday destination because of its pleasant climate all the year round. We first went there in 2008 courtesy of our friends William and Anthea Kay who let us use their lovely time-share apartment. This inspired us to get our own time-share and we returned for three weeks in 2010 when I was asked to preach in the small AoG church in Funchal, about which I shall say more later.   My ministry in Belgium was due first to my work with the International Correspondence Institute, which I referred to in an earlier talk, and secondly, to my contact with CTS, the Continental Theological Seminary, through fellowship with friends in EPTA. Roland and Judy Dudley, American AoG missionaries, had led the Portuguese Bible College back in the eighties and had moved on to Sint-Pieters-Leeuw near Brussels to head up CTS. At Roland's invitation I taught on the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, Spiritual Gifts, and Divine Healing on their MA programme for eight consecutive years (2005-2012). I was often asked to preach in their chapel services when we saw many students receive the baptism in the Spirit. Eileen and I were housed in one of the well-equipped apartments in the college.   We always enjoyed our visits to Belgium and took the opportunity to admire the wonderful architecture in cities like Brussels and Ghent as well as preaching in churches there. And every year we were at CTS made sure that we made a visit to the outlet store of a nearby chocolate factory and bring back plenty in time for Christmas!   And finally Finland, a country we visited even more often that Belgium. Apart from my contact with Teuvo Valkama that I mentioned in an earlier talk, it was friends I met at PEF and EPTA meetings who were the main instigators of our visits to that beautiful country. I first met Arto Hamalainnen at the ICCOWE conference in Brighton in June 1991 but later got to know him much better as we both served on the PEF Presidium, he as secretary and I as vice-chairman. Arto was the Missions Director for the Finnish Pentecostal Churches and was responsible for recommending me for my first visit to Ethiopia in 2005 and my visit to India in 2010, about which I will say more next time.   But it was Pasi Parkkila, the Director of the Finnish Bible College, who was responsible for most of our visits to Finland. I first met Pasi at an EPTA conference – I don't remember which, possibly at CTS in 02 or in Nantwich in 04 – but he asked me if I would be willing to teach on their MA programme at Iso Kirja, which incidentally means The Great Book – what a name for a Bible College! So, apart from 2010 when I was too unwell to go, I taught at Iso Kirja the same subjects as I was teaching at CTS every year from 2005 to 2012. But apart from teaching at Iso Kirja I also visited Finland for the EPTA conference in 06 and was the guest speaker at their National Pastors' Conference both in 08 and 09.   Eileen invariably travelled with me on our visits to Iso Kirja when most years we were accommodated in a comfortable log cabin overlooking a beautiful lake.  Tuula, Pasi's wife, a primary school teacher, kindly loaned us her car throughout our visits which gave us a measure of independence while we were there enabling us to drive into the nearest town, Keuruu, or to Jyväskylä a larger town a little further away.   We were also able to visit a number of churches during our trips, including one at Seinäjoki where outstanding miracles of healing were regularly taking place in their meetings. From the reports I was hearing I could hardly imagine that there was anyone in the church left with a problem, but after my preaching some fifty or sixty people came forward for prayer, all expecting to be personally prayed for. And as we had to communicate through an interpreter this inevitable took twice as long as usual. An hour and a half after the end of the meeting I laid hands on the last person and was feeling in need of prayer myself. I was extremely tired and hungry but felt I had learnt a lesson – even when miracles are happening there will always be people in need of prayer.   Perhaps the final thing to say about Finland is that at the request of Aikamedia, the Finnish Publishing Department, at least four of my books have been published in Finnish. I am encouraged that my teaching in Finland still goes on even though I have not been there in person since 2012.   The Lord had certainly extended the scope of my ministry and confirmed that it was right for us to leave Mattersey when we did.   Next time we'll talk about our trips to Reunion, Africa and India.

Il crollo di ieri della Torre dei conti, che ha causato una vittima, ha riportato la discussione anche sulle fragilità del patrimonio artistico italiano. Ne parliamo con Francesca Romana Stasolla, professore ordinario di Archeologia cristiana e medievale presso il Dipartimento di Scienze dell'Antichità dell'Università di Roma La Sapienza. Sono passati trent'anni dall'omicidio dell'allora Primo Ministro israeliano Rabin, la cui morte è stata l'inizio della fine del processo di pace di Oslo. Oggi la pace si cerca partendo dal piano di pace proposto da Donald Trump, mentre gli Stati Uniti presentano una bozza all'Onu per avere il mandato per l'invio di una forza internazionale a Gaza per almeno due anni. Commentiamo tutto insieme a Ugo Tramballi, consigliere scientifico Ispi e editorialista de Il Sole 24 Ore.Oblio oncologico: dopo due anni manca il decreto attuativo e altri due provvedimenti. Ne scrive oggi su Il Sole 24 Ore Marzio Baroloni.

As the fragile Gaza ceasefire wavers amid renewed airstrikes and mutual accusations of violations, President Donald Trump insists that “nothing will jeopardize” the truce his administration brokered with Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey. Yet the violence on the ground has cast doubt on whether this agreement marks a turning point or just another pause in a long and bitter conflict. To understand what's at stake, The Burn Bag turns to Ambassador Dennis Ross — the veteran diplomat who helped shape the Oslo peace process and guided U.S. negotiations with Israel and the Palestinians across multiple administrations.Ross analyzes how the current ceasefire was reached, the leverage Washington used to pressure both sides, and the uneasy coalition of Arab mediators that made it possible. He breaks down the complex second phase of the agreement — from disarmament and reconstruction to the future governance of Gaza — and assesses whether U.S. engagement can translate coercive diplomacy into lasting stability. Drawing on lessons from Oslo and decades of regional experience, Ross offers an unsentimental look at what it will take for this truce to hold — and whether the United States can still convert leverage into peace in a region defined by mistrust.

In this episode, Andreas Bjørndal, an experienced homeopath with more than 45 years in practice, shares his reflections on healing, teaching, and the evolving landscape of homeopathy. He talks about how homeopathy found him through his early fascination with nature and healing, and how this path led him to found multidisciplinary clinics and guide future practitioners in Norway. Andreas explains key ideas such as the concept of polarity in remedies and the importance of understanding the dynamics of healing rather than focusing solely on individual remedies.   Episode Highlights: 06:17 - Journey into Homeopathy 09:14 - Significant Cases and Learnings 13:47 - Reflections on 45 Years of Practice 17:00 - Evolution of Homeopathy Over the Years 21:31 - Understanding Wholeness and Unity 27:03 - Polarity and Healing Processes 31:36 - The Healing Process Begins with Intention 35:12 - Developing a System of Archetypes 39:09 - Understanding Center and Periphery in Remedies 47:35 - Exploring the Depth of Provings 56:13 - Homeopathy and Consciousness 01:09:56 - The Concept of Oneness 01:27:32 - Case Study: Hashimoto's and Hearing Loss 01:38:13 - Visualizing Archetypes and Polarities   About my Guests: Curriculum Vitae Andreas N. Bjørndal   It is difficult to imagine a role in homeopathy, natural medicine, and integrative health that ANB has not held. For more than four decades, he has been at the very center of the profession—locally, nationally, and internationally.   He founded and led two of the most respected multidisciplinary clinics in Oslo, bringing together more than 20 practitioners across traditional, alternative, and integrative medicine. At the same time, he was a pioneer in education, serving for nearly two decades as Educational Director at the Norwegian Academy of Natural Medicine (NAN), where he shaped curriculum, developed innovative approaches to learning, and guided the majority of homeopaths, naturopaths, and veteropaths in Norway. He has been a teacher of virtually every aspect of homeopathy and naturopathy—ranging from materia medica and clinical practice to philosophy of science, rhetoric, and therapist development—for more than 40 years.   Internationally, he has been a tireless ambassador of the field. As Chairperson of the Norwegian Association of Homeopaths, the European Council of Classical Homeopathy, and the International Council of Classical Homeopathy, he has not only led but also initiated many of the most important organizational and professional structures we take for granted today. He helped establish the first European guidelines for homeopathic education, guidelines that are now recognized globally as the standard. His honorary membership in the Norwegian Association of Homeopaths reflects a lifetime of service to the professional community.   As a lecturer and course instructor, he has been invited around the world for more than four decades, holding seminars on homeopathy, integrative medicine, philosophy, self-development and spirituality. He has trained healthcare professionals—including medical doctors and nurses—on the role of homeopathy in patient care, and his advanced training programs for practitioners have influenced generations of therapists. Beyond medicine, he has guided groups through self-development processes, spiritual initiations, and even journeys of initiation in Egypt.   ANB has also contributed at the policy and research levels. He served on the Norwegian government's Aarbakke Committee, which laid the groundwork for the Act on Alternative Treatment, and on the Ministry of Health's working group on private import of medicines. He has published extensively—hundreds of articles in Norwegian and international journals in print and online, as long-standing contributions to the The Magic Happens Magazine and his own site Holonity. He has conducted frontier research both regarding methodology as well as exploring the healing potential of close to 200 new homeopathic remedies.   In short, ANB's career encompasses the whole spectrum of homeopathy: practitioner, teacher, researcher, author, international spokesperson, and organizational leader. He has carried the field forward with vision, dedication, and a rare ability to connect the scientific, the practical, and the spiritual dimensions of healing in an inspirational and unified way that makes it easy to understand and apply.   Find out more about Andreas Website: https://holonity.com/   If you would like to support the Homeopathy Hangout Podcast, please consider making a donation by visiting www.EugenieKruger.com and click the DONATE button at the top of the site.

The case of Jennifer Fergate remains one of Europe's most perplexing mysteries. In May 1995, a woman using the alias "Jennifer Fergate" checked into Oslo's luxurious Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel with no identification, no credit card, and no luggage. Days later, she was found dead in her room from a gunshot wound, seemingly a suicide, but numerous details—like the unregistered gun, the absence of gunshot residue, and her mysterious lack of personal belongings—raised suspicions. Investigators found no trace of her real identity, fueling theories that she could have been a spy, involved in organized crime, or perhaps the victim of a staged assassination. Despite modern forensic advances, her true identity and the circumstances of her death remain unsolved, leaving behind a chilling enigma that continues to intrigue investigators and the public alike.(commercial at 8:25)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
