Marten Lodewijks considers the reasons for falling global alcohol consumption, noting that people are drinking less often and drinking less when they do. “Participation rate amongst Gen Z has been trending upwards for the past few years,” he notes, saying that maybe the generation is “late to the party” because of Covid-19 and economic pressures. He also discusses how Gen Z has more options for drinks and they approach consumption in a different way.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Title: Never Enough: The Pressures of Our Environment and the Path Back to Self-Worth | Jim FrawleyDescription:In Jim's Take Episode 159, executive coach Jim Frawley examines why “enough” never seems to be enough anymore. Today's social, digital, and economic environments constantly shift expectations—pushing achievement over meaning and visibility over value. Jim offers a direct, practical reframe: trade projection for contribution, performance anxiety for self-assurance, and empathy overload for actionable compassion.Listeners will learn:Why external scorekeeping (titles, metrics, followers) breeds conditional worthHow to disentangle identity from other people's moving goalpostsThe difference between confidence and self-assurance, self-importance and self-worthWhy empathy is often misapplied at work - and how compassion prevents burnoutA better target than “purpose”: usefulness you can feel and measureTwo exercises:Identity Columns: What defines you? In the next column, write who told you that.Participation is greater than Performance: Replace projection with tangible contribution each week.How to reduce duplicity, align inner values with outer behavior, and build calmWhy listen: If you're a leader or operator in New York / NYC or any fast-moving market, this episode gives you a repeatable approach to rebuild worth from the inside out—without abandoning ambition.Subscribe, rate, and review on Apple/Spotify.

Sermons from Christ Community Church, Crawford, Nebraska. Pastor Steve Mallery
The new Hays Global Talent Tracker, developed by Oxford Economics, shows that Ireland's workforce ranks highly in Innovation and Participation, but that high costs and skills pipelines could impact Ireland's long-term competitiveness when compared to key European rivals. Ireland has been ranked 33rd out of 35 of some of the world's leading economies in the new tracker, reflecting a mixed picture of strong innovation capabilities, offset by significant challenges which bring its ranking down. Overall, the report places Ireland behind European competitors such as Sweden (3rd), the Netherlands (7th), the UK (18th), and Germany (15th). The Global Tracker evaluates each country across five pillars of workforce quality. The pillars examined were Talent Value, Talent Participation, Talent Development, Talent Market Flexibility and Talent Innovation. While Ireland scored rankings in the global top ten for Talent Innovation (9th) and Talent Participation (10th), these strengths were offset by poor performances elsewhere in the other pillars of the tracker. A Story of Two Halves The core opportunity Ireland has to improve is utilising its strengths to address its weaknesses, in order to further improve and invest in workforce growth. Ireland's best results in the tracker reflect a highly educated, engaged, and digitally-savvy workforce that is resilient and ready to meet the demands of a modern economy - a major asset for employers looking to establish here. However, Ireland's ranking falls sharply in the pillars of Talent Value (35th) and Talent Market Flexibility (32nd), driven by high operational costs and growing pressure on skills availability in key sectors. The findings reflect the pressures of a market nearing full employment, where rising business and wage costs present an ongoing need to enhance productivity. Similarly, the ranking for Talent Development (20th) points to the importance of continued investment in Ireland's education and training infrastructure to ensure it keeps producing the specialised skills required to fuel its world-class knowledge sectors into the future. Global Context The Hays Global Talent Tracker concludes that no country performs perfectly across all workforce dimensions, and that those at the very top also have areas for development. Even high-performing nations such as Japan, which tops the overall index, ranks lower in areas like Talent Market Flexibility (17th). This global context shows that the key is not perfection, but for each country to understand and strategically address its unique economic pressures. Barney Ely, Senior Managing Director for Ireland at Hays, said: "The new Hays Global Talent Tracker offers valuable insights for Irish business leaders, policymakers, agencies and educational institutions. Ireland continues to benefit from a highly skilled and innovative workforce, but the findings suggest there are opportunities to strengthen our position further on the global stage. "The report highlights the importance of ensuring that investment in talent aligns with value creation and underscores the need to continue developing the skills pipeline required for tomorrow. "Encouragingly, the report positions Ireland as a country with strong potential to lead through innovation, adaptability, and its commitment to education and workforce development. "At Hays, we support organisations turn insights into action by helping them build workforce strategies that enable long-term success. Our focus remains on connecting employers with talent that drives real value, ensuring Ireland remains a competitive and attractive place to do business globally."

Episode 197 - This episode delves into the profound significance of the Eucharist within the Catholic faith, exploring themes of humility, service, and the transformative power of participating in the Mass. The discussion highlights the connection between the Last Supper, the Passover, and the true presence of Christ in the Eucharist, emphasizing the importance of understanding and reflecting on these mysteries to deepen one's faith and relationship with God.TakeawaysThe Eucharist is a central mystery of faith that invites deep reflection.Humility is exemplified by Jesus washing the feet of His disciples.The Last Supper signifies the fulfillment of God's promise of salvation.The table represents both fellowship and sacrifice in the Christian life.The Passover is redefined through Jesus as the ultimate sacrifice.Participation in the Eucharist transforms us into the body of Christ.The Mass is a timeless memorial that connects us to Christ's sacrifice.Our lives are called to be offered and broken for others.Understanding the true presence of Christ in the Eucharist is essential for faith.We should continually seek to make the Eucharist a new experience in our lives.Hosts - Father Sean Danda & Nathanael Rea
Continuing our study of the Apostle Paul's view of circumcision, this week focuses on Galatians 6. To perpetuate a popular view that certain groups were inferior to others, some Christians required others to be circumcised. Paul believed this was so contrary to the gospel, and he took the issue so seriously, that he wrote this part of his letter himself with extra-large letters. So, why don't we take discrimination within the church as seriously as Paul did? Why do we passively participate in the prejudice of others?

We begin our exploration of Peter's second letter, where he invites followers of Jesus to share in God's divine nature. This participation comes through the precious faith granted to them by the righteousness of Jesus, and it culminates in mutual affection and self-giving love for others. By practicing this way of life—one already present in God's coming kingdom—believers will discover a rich and joyful welcome when it fully arrives. Scripture: 2 Peter 1:1-11

PREVIEW: China's View on North Korea's Unsuccessful Military Involvement in Ukraine Guest: Anatol Lieven Anatol Lieven discusses China's perspective on North Korea and Russia regarding the Ukraine war. North Korea's participation in Ukraine is obvious and well documented, though China neither encouraged nor prevented the involvement. The direct engagement of approximately 10,000 North Korean soldiers fighting in Kursk appears to have been unsuccessful, suffering very heavy casualties before being withdrawn from active operations. 1917 PASCHENDALE

In this conversation, Dr Andrew M. Davis joins Dr Tevin Naidu for a deep exploration of meaning, process philosophy, and the evolving story of consciousness. They discuss the modern meaning crisis, Alfred North Whitehead's process cosmology, philosophical praxis, and how value, agency, and mind might be fundamental features of an unfolding universe. From metaphysics to existential risk, and from science to spirituality - this conversation explores how philosophy can help us re-enchant our understanding of reality itself.Andrew M. Davis, PhD. is an American process philosopher, theologian, and scholar of the cosmos. He is research and academic director for the Center for Process Studies where he researches, writes, teaches, and organizes conferences on various aspects of process-relational thought. He is author, editor, and co-editor of nearly a dozen books including Mind, Value, and Cosmos: On the Relational Nature of Ultimacy (2020); Process Cosmology: New Integrations in Science and Philosophy (2022); Metaphysics of Exo-Life: Toward a Constructive Whiteheadian Cosmotheology (2023); and Whitehead's Universe: A Prismatic Introduction (forthcoming, 2026).TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) – Introduction | Meaning, Mind, and the Future of Philosophy(03:12) – What Is Philosophical Praxis?

Today Fr. Anthony covers Chapters Seven and Eight from Dr. Zachery Porcu's Journey to Reality, "The Life of the Church" and "The Bible and the Church." Enjoy the show! +++ Journey to Reality Chapters Seven and Eight You are What You Do (Including Eat) 10/29/2025 As creatures, we were made malleable. It was built into our design so that we could grow towards perfection eternally. While this is a characteristic of the entire cosmos – and every member of it – it has a special purpose for us. We are the shepherds, farmers, and priests of the cosmos. The system is designed so that as we become better, we are able to shepherd or grow the cosmos from one made good – that is to say made both beautiful and beneficial into one that is even better; that is to say even better and more beneficial. This malleability is built into us. Alas, we have left our true home, so that malleability leads to malformation. Let's talk about the malleability. The way Dr. Porcu puts it is that we become what we do. Much of my own work reflects on the way our rituals form us. These rituals are embedded within a culture, and living within that culture shapes us into members and bearers of it. A few weeks ago, we talked about how we live in a materialist, secular, and consumerist culture. Living in it means that we automatically participate in its rituals. These develop within us a certain way of thinking, acting, and relating to other people, God, and our environment. How could it not? The unfortunate thing for us is that our primary culture is imperfect and reifies its imperfections into our way of being. I propose that the answer is not really to actively oppose it – as in some kind of culture war – because doing so before we break out of its conditioning is just going to ingrain its patterns more deeply into our hearts. Rather, we must find a new way of living. This new way of living should come with its own rituals that will gradually get enough traction to lessen the hold that the majority culture has on us and replace it with its own. To the extent that we must participate in the old rituals, we should reframe our participation in a way that resonates with our new life rather than our old one. We have to give them new meaning, so that, eventually, even these old ways of doing things can work with our new rituals to deepen the hold that our new way of life has on us and on our minds and how we relate to God, other people, and the environment. Some rituals, such as pornography, fornication (i.e., sex outside marriage), and driving slowly in the left-hand lane on the expressway, cannot be redeemed and so they have to be avoided. It will take discernment to figure out how to best engage in this process, so this way of life should involve developing a community that is all focused on the same sort of new life. Now let's go through chapter seven, "The Life of the Church." Quotes for discussion: "[Y]ou don't have to do anything, but if you want to become something, you have to participate in it." (77) "Sacramentally, the purpose of attending church services is to participate in a higher spiritual reality." (70) "[N]othing is 'just' physical. Objects and actions have intrinsic, spiritual meaning. Everything is participatory… [I]f the physical and the spiritual can't be separated, then imitation is always participatory. … You can't participate in something physically without also participating in its spiritual meaning." (72) "[As Orthodox Christians, our] goal is to imitate, and therefore participate in, a spiritual reality through the physical ritual. And the spiritual reality that sacramental Christians are trying to imitate through their liturgy is nothing less than heaven itself…. This is why sacramental Christians call their liturgy the "Divine Liturgy." To participate in it is also to participate in the exact same cosmic liturgy that the angels perform around the throne of God…. [W]hen you step into a sacramental church space that's correctly imitating the heavenly liturgy, you are stepping into a small bit of heaven itself – you are participating with the angelic powers in a higher spiritual reality." (73) "Sacramental Christianity is not just about doing a particular set of actions; it's a whole way of life. One way to describe this life is as participation in what the Church calls "liturgical time." (75) "[T]o be sacramental is not merely a matter of attendance, nor is it merely about thinking a certain way or performing certain ritual actions; it is a lifestyle… [G]oing to church and participating in the sacraments is about living out the idea that the physical and the spiritual are bound up together, and that you encounter them together through participation – not just in church, but in everything you do and are." (77) "You can't become healthy by sitting at home and reading a lot of articles about health. You don't become a member of a family by skipping family gatherings in order to sit at home looking at pictures of past family events. If you want to be a part of something, you have to live it." (77) "[Y]ou don't have to do anything, but if you want to become something, you have to participate in it. And in sacramental Christianity, the thing you're participating in is the higher spiritual reality of the arche' Himself." (77) Chapter eight, The Bible and the Church "[T]he Bible is not the source of Christianity." (77) "The Bible is not a scientific of historical document in the particular sense that modern people mean this. It's important here to distinguish between truth and fact. Facts are those things that are objectively verifiable…. But even though facts are verifiable…, they have no deeper meaning. Truth, on the other hand, includes facts but goes beyond them to encompass the deeper meaning of reality itself." (77) "As modern people we tend to care only about facts [read whole section] … even over meaning." (77) "There are plenty of mistakes and errors in the Bible that have been thoroughly documented… The Bible is about truth, and truth is higher than fact. (78) "From the very beginning, ancient Christians recognized three levels of biblical interpretation: the literal, the moral, and the spiritual (what they called the typological). (78). "But how do you know which passages in the Bible have a literal meaning and which don't, or which have both? How do you know what the correct typological meaning is?" (81) "To really read the Bible with the mind of the Church requires that you have a certain kind of formation – not just intellectual but spiritual." (84) "And just as you can't really understand the Bible's true depths without participation in the life of the Church, so too the whole life of the Church [resonates with] imagery from the Bible." "The Bible… is not merely read or memorized, but lived and experienced. Or, to put it another way, being reconnected with the arche' is not something you do only in your mind. It's a new kind of life, and it must therefore be lived. Questions for Discussion What are some of the new rituals that a commitment to living the Orthodox Way gives us, and how do they help transform our thinking and way of relating to others? In addition to pornography and fornication, what are some of the rituals that you believe work against our new way of life? What are some of the things that we have always done that can be given new meaning and help us become better Christians? Are you concerned that the book claims that there are errors in the Bible?
