All aboard the Culture Train! In this episode, we head back to New York City on a chilly winter morning to ride along on a real garbage truck and discover what happens to our trash after we throw it away. With our friend Amelia from the New York Hall of Science, we explore the hidden systems that keep a city running. We learn why sanitation workers start their day before sunrise, how trash is collected from busy sidewalks, and why NYC sanitation workers are known as the “strongest” for lifting heavy bags by hand. • Why different neighborhoods have different trash pickup schedules • What “coned” trash cans are and how kids can help when bins are full • The difference between household trash and recycling • Why batteries, electronics, and glass should never go in regular trash bags • What a transfer station is and where trash goes next Then we hop on the Culture Train to visit a recycling sorting center, where we watch conveyor belts, giant machines, and real workers separate paper, cans, glass, and food scraps so they can be turned into something new. • Paper can become pizza boxes • Food scraps can become soil • Soda cans can become new cans • Glass can be crushed and reused in new materials This episode helps kids understand that everything has a system, a place, and a story, and that even small everyday choices, like using the right bin or holding onto trash until you find one, can help the people who keep our communities clean. About the New York Hall of Science This episode was created in collaboration with the New York Hall of Science (NYSCI), a hands-on science and technology museum located in Queens, New York, in Flushing Meadows Corona Park.

Mary of Modena and Mary II are two Queens whose lives have been lost in the story of the 'Glorious Revolution'. Yet they were fundamental to the machinations of the turbulent late 1600s, where heightened religious tension made for dangerous politics at the Stuart court.  So for today's episode, we're bringing them back into the centre of the story. Chief Historian Tracy Borman is joined by Assistant Research Curator Holly Marsden and Dr Breeze Barrington to reveal the women behind the 'Glorious Revolution.' 

n the first installment of this explosive trial coverage, we dive into the Commonwealth's case against federal agent Brendan Banfield. What initially appeared to be a tragic home invasion and the heroic defense of his wife, Christine, quickly unraveled into a twisted plot involving an affair with the family's 22-year-old au pair, Juliana Magalhaes. We break down the prosecution's opening statements, which allege Brendan masterminded a "fake rape fantasy" on FetLife to lure an unsuspecting man to his home—setting the stage for a double murder he hoped to blame on an intruder. Hear the chilling details of the initial 911 calls and the star witness testimony of Juliana Magalhaes, who describes the moments Brendan allegedly turned a knife on his own wife.

“I am not sad… I am angry.” In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about what chaos, a hotdog truck, bees and a friendly beekeeper can inspire, trying not to spoil what will come, and screaming butterflies … neat! in their discussion of The Young Queens by Kendare Blake.

Welcome to this episode of HALO Talks, where Pete Moore sits down with Angel Olavarria, founder of Strive mens skincare, and cosmetic chemist from Forest Hills, Queens. Angel reflects on his journey from a career in sales to becoming an entrepreneur in men's skincare. He reflects on the idea that people tend to attribute positive attributes to others who are very attractive, inspired him to dig deeper into self-presentation, which eventually led him down the path of skincare science. Angel discusses the often confusing (and slightly sometimes sketchy) world of men's skincare, his hands-on approach to developing formulas, and the importance of using the proper amount of evidence-based ingredients. He also opens up about the process behind launching his business, staying true to his principles, and building a brand that values authenticity over flashy marketing tricks. It doesn't matter if you're interested in men's skincare or not. What is key here are the lessons Angel has learned as he continues to (rapidly!) scale Strive. If you're an aspiring entrepreneur or even seasoned business owner and are looking for fresh insights into building a thoughtful and impactful brand, this episode offers a candid look at balancing passion, discipline, and business in today's competitive market. Key themes discussed Journey from sales to skincare entrepreneurship The complexity and science behind truly effective skincare Importance of authenticity and principles in entrepreneurship Product development: Balancing simplicity and efficacy Marketing strategies: Digital, SEO, and sampling challenges Pricing, margins, and growth without sacrificing values A Few Key Takeaways:  1.The Power of Skincare for Personal Branding: Angel shared how men's attention to self-care and skincare can enhance the tendency for people to attribute positive qualities to those who appear attractive and well-groomed. This observation sparked his journey into men's skincare and eventually founding Strive. 2. Authenticity in Entrepreneurship: He stressed how he builds his business on strong principles, refusing to compromise quality or add unnecessary complexity to men's routines. He wants Strive to be genuinely useful, not just another product pushed by aggressive marketing. 3. Science-Backed Formulations vs. Marketing Gimmicks: The chat also highlighted the importance of using ingredients with proven efficacy, like niacinamide or retinol, both backed by decades of research. Olavarria pointed out that many competitors focus on trendy but unproven plant extracts, often prioritizing marketing narratives over results. 4. Lean Operations and Smart Growth: Angel explained how he handles most of his business personally, takes advantage of contractors and US-based suppliers, and leverages technology (like AI) to stay nimble. He emphasized starting with fewer SKUs and growing thoughtfully to avoid complexity and inefficiency. 5. Philosophy of Continuous Improvement and Authentic Brand Building: The brand name "Strive" embodies the drive to always work toward something and improve. Angel wants the brand to inspire men to strive, not just for looks, but for personal growth. He also values authentic ambassador relationships, only working with those who genuinely connect to his products.

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal, and today I am speaking with Rebbetzin Lisa Babich all about Purim. Lisa is a Queens-raised New Yorker, full-time Rebbetzin, and licensed speech and language pathologist. She has been involved in Jewish education and outreach since the age of 19, teaching at TBY, EMETT Russian outreach, the Jewish Enrichment Center in the West Village, and now Fifth Avenue Synagogue alongside her husband, Rabbi Eli Babich who is the Rabbi there.She was also very vocal during the NYC mayoral election this past year when unfortunately, Mamdani was elected. Lisa was instrumental in trying to unite the Jewish people in prayer to attempt to stop his win yet even when he did, she did not let the news get her down. She is a strong advocate for the Jewish people and has really become a source of chizzuk, or strength for me, when it comes to the day-to-day issues we're facing these days. Plus, the whole experience with Mamdani has eerie parallels to the Purim story. He really feels like a modern day Haman and I knew I wanted to speak with Lisa around this time to give us insight into how we can use this experience to connect even more to Purim and Hashem, as the ultimate goal.And she really delivered. She shares sooo much wisdom in this podcast episode and I'm so glad we talked it all through. In our conversation, we speak about:-How to see Hashem in this hidden world-What the lessons in the Torah can teach us about the times we're living in now-How she's already seeing Hashem's Hand through Mamdani's election and why she's not scared-Why unity is one of the most important things we need to be focused on and how to work at it in your own life when you feel helpless-Her thoughts on if we should all be moving to Israel right now-How she personally connects more deeply to Hashem and how to work to make it more of a relationship vs just a give and take -What it means to be a strong Jewish woman...and so much more!Connect with Lisa on Instagram at @lisababich9 or via email at lisababich9@gmail.com.

Don and Dude keep the “I Love the 80s” journey moving into 1986, when pop music turned glossy, global, and emotionally grown-up while hip-hop kicked down the door to the mainstream and refused to close it. One of us drops the needle on a blockbuster art-pop record that turned a former prog-rock oddball into an MTV-era icon, and the other cranks a Queens rap classic where drum machines, DJ wizardry, and rock guitars collide to launch hip-hop into its album era.The Albums Peter Gabriel – So (1986) Peter Gabriel's fifth solo LP trades full-on prog theatrics for a song-focused blend of art-pop, soul, and worldbeat that still feels intimate and strange even as it aims for stadiums. "Red Rain" and "Sledgehammer" frame the record's range, from cinematic storms and ritual grooves to horn-driven 60s-style soul reimagined as big-budget 80s pop. "Don't Give Up," a duet with Kate Bush, turns Linn drums and warm keys into a slow-motion conversation between despair and reassurance that speaks to unemployment, depression, and stubborn hope. Deep cuts like "That Voice Again," "Mercy Street," "Big Time," "We Do What We're Told," and the Laurie Anderson collaboration "This Is the Picture" keep the emotional arc intact while proving that production maximalism and adult subject matter can still hit like pop.Run-D.M.C. – Raising Hell (1986) By 1986, Run, DMC, and Jam Master Jay had already changed rap once; Raising Hell is where they change the world's idea of what a hip-hop record could be. Peter Piper opens with the bell-driven Bob James break, 808 thump, and nursery-rhyme flips that double as a DJ showcase and statement of intent. "Walk This Way" rebuilds a 70s rock riff into a hip-hop framework, smashing the wall between rock radio and rap while relaunching Aerosmith and blasting Run-D.M.C. into MTV rotation. "It's Tricky" and "My Adidas" sharpen their minimal drum-machine-and-scratch template into pure hooks, while "Proud to Be Black" closes as a history lesson and manifesto that points toward the coming wave of conscious rap.Diggin' Albums Jay Buchanan – Weapons of Beauty (2026) The Rival Sons frontman strips away the big rock theatrics for a rootsier, Americana-leaning solo set, focusing on weathered vocals, open-sky arrangements, and songs that feel like they were written on long drives and sleepless nights.Genesis – Invisible Touch (1986) Phil Collins, Tony Banks, and Mike Rutherford lean fully into shiny 80s pop on their biggest commercial triumph, stacking drum-heavy radio singles and bright synths around a few lingering prog instincts on the longer cuts.Susanna Hoffs – The Lost Record (2024 / recorded 1999) A once-shelved garage-made collection that captures the Bangles singer reshaping her identity at home with a new baby and a circle of songwriter friends, marrying jangly pop, adult introspection, and late-90s alt-rock warmth.Kirsty MacColl – Real (2023 / recorded 1983) Finally released in full decades after being shelved, this early 80s set frames MacColl's sharp, clear voice with icy synths and programmed rhythms, revealing a tougher, more new-wave edge than her later, better-known work.Follow & Support Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing.“Well, I guess that's the difference between you and me.

It doesn't matter who you are, we all travel through dark and fearful places in life – and at those times, it can be so hard to remember that God is in the Light business.   The Darkest Nights I am always so excited to be starting a new series of messages and that's what we are doing this week on the programme – and it is a series that I have called "Dark Night, Bright Light." Dark and darkness – I wonder what those words mean to you? There are all sorts of connotations when we apply them to our lives. I remember when I was a young boy - even probably well into my teenage years – I was really afraid of the dark. I remember after dinner in the dining room, it was a long corridor – well it seemed a long corridor – especially in the dark. It was only about, I don't know, only eight or nine meters from the dining room to my bedroom. But I have to tell you, when it was dark, it was a long way for me to go. And I was afraid to walk from the light dining room into that dark corridor to my dark bedroom. Now in the house where we lived, we were blessed because there was a light switch for the lights at either end of the corridor so I could walk out of the dining room, turn on the light and the corridor was in light and then I could go to my bedroom – and I always used that switch. Now, we lived in a safe part of town and the house was secure and there was no logical or rational reason for me to be afraid of the dark – I just was – and it was a deep fear and I think a lot of kids go through that. It seems that darkness and fear, well, they often go together in life – young or old. Now the truth be known we need both – we need light and dark in this world. I love it when the sun goes down and it's time to go to sleep and again when the sun comes up in the morning and it's time to get up and get on with living life. That's a pattern we live by – it's a pattern of life. But imagine if it were only ever dark, how awful that would be. In some countries of course, far north and far south, they have many months of darkness. Now take a look at our own lives. If we look back on those dark times – those periods in life that we would rather forget – whether it was a broken relationship or sickness or the death of a loved one or some real financial difficulties or maybe you have been through a war and has seen people killed or been in prison. Perhaps you have seen everything that you have worked so hard for over so many years just go down the drain. Someone has hurt you incredibly deeply or someone you trusted – perhaps you have been through a time of depression or real loneliness or you are working so hard that you don't feel as though you have a life – that list just goes on and on and on. Life has its dark times, doesn't it? Maybe you are going through one right now or maybe, who knows, there is one just around the next corner or next year or the year after and that's why we are kicking off this series "Dark Night, Bright Light" because light is the opposite of darkness and when we are travelling through those dark times, light is the very thing that we need. The problem is it can be so hard to find; so hard to believe in or hope for and over these coming weeks, we are going to be spending some time with King David in Psalm 34. But before we go there, let's have a little foretaste about darkness and light. If you have got a Bible, I want you grab it; I want you to open it up at page 1 – Genesis chapter 1 and verse 1 – the beginning. Here's what it say: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said "Let there be light" and there was light. And God saw that the light was good and He separated the light from the darkness. God called the light 'day' and the darkness He called that 'night'. And there was evening and there was morning – that was the first day." I might hear you say, "Well, Berni, I know that passage and that's all well and good. You're talking about physical light here, that's fine but what about God shining His light into the darkness in my life?" We are going to talk about that shortly but the point that I'm making is this: creation tells us something about the Creator. You and I create different things because we are different. God, the very first thing He creates – the very first thing – is light. That tells us something about God but what a light! We tend to just think of the sun there; one of just an estimated trillion, trillion stars. God is seriously into light and that tells us something about who He is. Let's take a look at just another couple of verses in the Bible. There are so many of them that talk about God and light – Ezekiel chapter 10, verse 4: Then the glory of the Lord rose from above the cherubim and moved to the threshold of the temple. The cloud filled the temple and the court was full of the radiance and the glory of God. Words from Isaiah chapter 60, verse 19: The sun will no more be your light by day nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you for the Lord will be your everlasting light and your God will be your glory. And perhaps my favourite of all, where Paul seems to bring it all together in Second Corinthians chapter 4 and verse 6: For it is the very same God who said "Let light shine out of the darkness, that made His light to shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." The Bible is full of references about God being our light and our radiance. Can you see why I have called this series "Dark Night, Bright Light"? Over these coming weeks I believed we are going to be transformed by God's Word about darkness and light. If you have just been through a "darkness" or you are going through one right now or you are going to go through one in the future, the Word of God is going to shine a light into that dark place – "Dark Night, Bright Light."   The Wisdom of Hindsight As I said earlier in the programme we are going to spend some time in Psalm 34, this week and over the next three weeks. It's an interesting Psalm because it comes out of King David's life. It's a Psalm of praise for deliverance from trouble. So it is a Psalm written, if you like, with the benefit of hindsight. David has learned something – something about God in a dark time. Now we are not sure what that time was. The introduction to the Psalm says, "A Psalm of David when he feigned madness before Abimelech so that he drove him out and he went away." Now we don't have any other information about that. Abimelech was a judge; he was a leader of Israel; he was Gideon's son. Anyhow the fact of the matter is, even though we don't know the precise historical details it doesn't matter. David had to engage in some deception, it tells us; if was a fearful and scary time and he needed to escape. Now let's have a look at the first part of this Psalm. If you have got a Bible, open it at Psalm 34 – we are going to look at just the first eight verses today. This is what it says: I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise will always be on my lips. My soul will boast in the Lord, let the afflicted hear and rejoice. Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt His name together. I sought the Lord and He answered me – He delivered me from all my fears. Those who look at Him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. This poor man called and the Lord heard him; He saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him and He delivers them. Taste and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him It's a beautiful Psalm! You see, it's David looking back on a difficult time. And he starts out be praising God – "I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise will always be on my lips," because of God's faithfulness. And there's a purpose in him praising; a specific purpose. Look at verse 2. My soul will boast in the Lord, let the afflicted hear and rejoice. See, the purpose of this Psalm is to let the rest of us know when we are afflicted that God is faithful in those darks times so that we can hear that and rejoice. See, this Psalm was written for you and for me. Isn't God good? And David says, "You know why I am writing this Psalm? It's for you, you who are afflicted; you who are travelling through a dark and fearful time." You know why? Come and look at verse 3 again with me. David says: Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt His name together. In other words so that you and I can rejoice together even though we might be travelling through dark times. We are getting the benefit of what David discovered in his dark and fearful time. And what he discovered, well, it is as profound as it is simple. Look at verse 4; this is what he says; this is the heart of this first passage for me. David says: I sought the Lord and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears. You know what happens in the darkness? In the darkness we become afraid and that fear immobilises us – fear stops us dead in our tracks. We just kind of sit there and we ache and fear eats away at our hearts like a quick spreading cancer and in that fear - remember, David was as he had been many times before, in fear of his life; real fear – David had more than his share of dark times – he had real fear. Let me say it this way – he was in deadly fear and in the midst of his deadly fear he did the thing that he had learned to do over all of those times in his life when he had been in danger – when he was on the run from King Saul who was trying to kill him for all those years – he did the one thing he knew to do – Psalm 34, verse 4: I sought the Lord and He answered me. David sought God – he'd cry out to God for help. The one thing that we can forget to do when we are frozen by fear is just to cry out to God – just to pour our hearts out to Him. And what a surprise, "God answered him and delivered him from all his fears." I don't know about you but I can relate to that. In life and in ministry I come against giants of opposition all the time and I can tell you, some days they scare me – seriously. And we have a choice – we can just kind of sit there and tremble in fear and be completely immobilised or we can spend some time with God, crying out to Him in prayer and reading His Word and listening to Him – and He always delivers me from all my fears. David goes on to say this – verses 5 and 6 of Psalm 34: Those who look to Him are radiant; their faces are never covered in shame. This poor man called and the Lord heard him and He saved him out of all his troubles. There it is – the light word "radiance". The Hebrew word that sits behind our English translation means literally 'to beam or to burn with light'. It's an "over the top" kind of word – it's not a glow or a flicker or just a shine, but to beam and to burn with light and that's exactly what happens when we look to God; when we put our trust in Him in the middle of our darkness. See, in those dark times we are downcast; ashamed if you like, but David states this simple truth "This poor man called and the Lord heard him and saved out of all his troubles; He delivered him from all his fears." This is such a humble and beautiful picture, isn't it? David, probably the greatest King that Israel ever had, saw himself just as a poor man who cried out to God in his darkness. Don't you love it how the Bible is packed full of this real life stuff – this stuff that's right down where we are? The Word of God meant for us here and now; right where the rubber hits the road - the light and the radiance of God in our darkness and fear - and all this out of a simple step that David took; so simple and yet when we are afraid, so difficult. "I sought the Lord and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears."   Taste and See God is very much in the "light" business, isn't He – taking our fear and replacing it with His radiance? Perhaps that's why David writes in Psalm 18, verse 28: It is You O Lord who lights my lamp; the Lord my God lights up my darkness. And again in Psalm 139, verses 11 and 12: If I say surely the darkness will hide me and the light will become night around me, even the darkness will not be dark to You. The night will shine like the day for darkness is as light to You. You get the impression that David is a seasoned traveller through darkness and he has learned some stuff that God would have us learn, each in our own way. Now let's head back to Psalm 34, verses 7 and 8, just to finish off our look at what David learned. Let's have a read: The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him and delivers them. Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him. Now there are two things here we need to get into; the first is the bit about the angel of the Lord. Let's have a look at verse 7 again: The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him and He delivers them. Angels have a kind of funny symbology these days in our society – fluffy little creatures with wings – but you do just a short study of the angels that God describes in the Bible and you discover they are a fearsome lot. Often God uses them as a messenger and the first thing the angel says is, "Don't be afraid". They deliver a specific message to God's people to protect them from trouble and often they appear as fearsome beings to protect God's people. Look at Second Chronicles chapter 32, verse 20: King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah, son of Amos cried out in prayer to heaven about this and the Lord sent an angel who annihilated all the fighting men and the leaders and the officers of the camp of the Assyrian King. So he withdrew to his own land in disgrace and when he went to the temple of his god, some of his sons cut him down with his own sword. Get it? The angel is serious protection. Presidents or Prime Ministers or Kings or Queens all have their security contingents right around them when they travel. Well those security contingents have got nothing on an angel of the Lord. And you might say to me, "Berni, do you seriously believe in angels?" Absolutely! We can't see them but when we fear God; when we reverence Him – we will talk more about that idea next week – when we belong to Him, He sends His angel to encamp around us; to surround us; literally, to lay siege around us to protect us. How does David know that? Because he has been there; he has experienced it over and over again and that's exactly what he says in the next verse. Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him. Now, this verse is so often quoted out of context "Taste and see" – suck it and see! When you are in the darkness; when you are afraid, David is saying, "Try this thing that I am talking about 'Taste and see that the Lord is good', you will be blessed when you take refuge in Him." It's like an invitation to you and me today from God. Come on, try it – I can hear the Spirit of God saying through His Word – "Come on, try it because when you take refuge in Me". God is saying, "you will truly be blessed". I don't know about you but God has seriously spoken to me today and encouraged me through His Word; He is in the light business and it's something that David discovered through long, hard experiences in darkness and fear. And he comes out the other side of that singing God's praises specifically for you and for me to hear. I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise will always be on my lips. My soul will boast in the Lord; let the afflicted hear and rejoice. Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt His name. I sought the Lord and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to Him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. This poor man called out and the Lord heard him and He saved him from all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him and He delivers them. Taste and see that the Lord is good for blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him. Isn't that an awesome Psalm? People sometimes say to me, "Berni, why do you talk about this stuff? You know, is this Christianity thing for losers?" You don't have to be a loser to go through dark times – we all go through dark times – we all travel through difficult times. You know, a friend or a relative that is close to us dies young of cancer and we are left reeling and we think "God why has that happened?" We get retrenched; we lose someone else we love; we … – all sorts of things happen to us and at those times it feels like God has deserted us. Listen to David again: I sought the Lord and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears. In that darkness there is no light so bright as the light of God and His heart is to take a face that has been covered with tears and put His radiance on that face. God is a wonderful God. I want to encourage you to join me over the next three weeks as we further explore the Word of God and what God has to say about His light amidst our darkness. That's what this series "Dark Night, Bright Light" is all about.

En Bolivie, une commission contre l'impunité en matière de délits sexuels contre les mineurs doit se mettre au travail début mars 2026, trois ans après que le pays a été secoué par une affaire au sein de l'Église catholique. Mais la méthode choisie laisse certaines victimes sceptiques. Le scandale éclate en avril 2023 quand El Pais publie des extraits du journal intime d'un prêtre, le père Pica. Il y reconnaît avoir agressé 85 enfants entre 1972 et 2000, essentiellement quand il était directeur d'un pensionnat jésuite à Cochabamba, dans le centre de la Bolivie. Mais ce n'est qu'en septembre 2025 que deux dirigeants de la Compagnie de Jésus sont condamnés par la justice bolivienne à un an de prison chacun pour avoir couvert ces crimes. C'est bien peu, se désolent alors les victimes. D'autant que le père Pica, lui, est mort en 2009. Durcir les peines est l'un des objectifs de la commission, indique Marine de La Moissonnière, du service International de RFI. Celle-ci va enquêter sur tous les cas d'agressions sexuelles contre des mineurs qui n'ont pas été jugés ou qui sont prescrits pour comprendre ce qui s'est passé, si certaines personnes ont volontairement traîné des pieds ou détourner le regard.   Des victimes vigilantes Mais en face, les victimes ne sont pas très enthousiastes. Elles sont échaudées par de précédentes initiatives, de précédents cas comme celui du père Lucho Roma, un autre prêtre espagnol qui a abusé de dizaines d'enfants en Bolivie. L'Église a enquêté longuement mais n'a rien fait de ses sombres découvertes. Le parquet, lui, avait classé l'affaire faute, soi-disant, de retrouver des victimes. « La Compagnie de Jésus s'est dotée de lignes d'écoute et de dispositifs pour recueillir la parole de victimes. Mais tout cela n'a débouché que sur davantage d'impunité, reproche Wilder Flores, président de l'association La Communauté bolivienne des survivants, interrogé par Carlos Pizarro, de la rédaction en espagnol de RFI. Souvent, ce genre de commissions, c'est juste "beaucoup de bruit pour rien". On peut même parler d'un engagement de façade. Donc on va être très vigilants. On espère vraiment que cette commission n'a pas été créée pour mettre tout sous le tapis. » En ce qui concerne la perpétuité, Wilder Flores y est favorable. Mais selon lui, les complices des auteurs d'agressions sexuelles sur des enfants devraient, eux aussi, être passibles de cette peine. Il appelle tous les Boliviens ayant connaissance de cas de pédophilie, à parler. Mais selon lui, il faut qu'ils s'adressent directement à la justice, pas aux autorités ecclésiastiques.   Au Venezuela, des chavistes rongés par le doute Au Venezuela, la loi d'amnistie promise il y a trois semaines par la présidente par intérim Delcy Rodriguez a été promulguée hier, quelques minutes après avoir été adoptée à l'unanimité par les députés. Mais les journaux se font l'écho des réserves émises au sujet de cette amnistie, et notamment celles de l'opposant Juan Pablo Guanipa. Pour lui, le texte promulgué « est un document frauduleux qui cherche à faire chanter de nombreux Vénézuéliens innocents et qui exclut plusieurs frères qui sont encore injustement derrière les barreaux ». C'est ce qu'il a déclaré dans un communiqué que relaie La Patilla. Pendant ce temps, certains partisans du régime chaviste sont rongés par le doute, près de deux mois après l'enlèvement de Nicolas Maduro et de son épouse Cilia Flores. C'est à lire cette fois dans TalCual. Deux femmes employées dans un ministère qui discutent à voix basse dans un café de Caracas. Elles disent être des révolutionnaires très honorables. Ce qui ne les empêche pas de se poser mille questions : « Se pourrait-il qu'il y ait eu trahison ? Qui aurait pu être le traître ? Et Delcy, de quel côté est-elle ? » Beaucoup d'autres citoyens qui sont ou étaient chavistes, trouvent les événements récents étranges, paradoxaux, écrit TalCual. Alors ils doutent, même si on leur a dit que douter, c'était trahir. Il y a ceux aussi qui se demandent si Nicolas Maduro était vraiment le meilleur dirigeant pour le pays. C'est le cas de Perla, qui se souvient de la joie qu'elle avait ressentie lors de l'élection d'Hugo Chavez en 1999. Et sa déception après celle de Nicolas Maduro. Pour Perla, cette élection a été le début des désastres : l'inflation, les pénuries, la faim... Et en ce qui la concerne, la dépression. Un matin de 2021, Perla n'a pas réussi à sortir de son lit. Elle a démissionné et elle s'est consacrée à ses enfants et sa communauté. Aujourd'hui, cinq ans plus tard donc, la seule chose qui la rend heureuse, c'est cette libération des prisonniers politiques.   La loi préférée de l'ICE Aux États-Unis, les policiers de l'immigration ont ressorti des oubliettes une loi qui leur permet de placer en détention des citoyens états-uniens. C'est l'article 18 USC 111, qui interdit d'agresser, de résister, de s'opposer, d'entraver ou d'intimider un agent fédéral dans l'exercice de ses fonctions. Les agents de l'ICE l'invoquent à tour de bras à Minneapolis, Chicago ou Los Angeles, toutes ces villes où les habitants s'organisent face aux opérations d'expulsion. C'est à lire sur le site de CNN qui consacre une longue enquête à ce sujet. Depuis le retour de Donald Trump à la Maison Blanche, elle a été invoquée 580 fois. C'est 40% de plus que durant l'année précédente, lorsque Joe Biden était encore président. Le département de la Sécurité intérieure se justifie en affirmant que la violence contre ses agents est sans précédent. Mais sur 22 poursuites engagées en vertu de cet article 18 USC 111, 16 ont fini classées sans suite. Ce qui fait dire aux experts que l'administration Trump interprète la loi de manière extrêmement large, avec des conséquences inquiétantes pour la liberté d'expression et le droit de manifester. Sur le site du New Yorker, enfin, vous lirez l'histoire de Manuela et Ivan. L'histoire de deux immigrés équatoriens vivant dans le Queens, à New York, qui s'est effondrée quand Ivan a été arrêté par l'ICE. C'était à 7h49 le matin du 27 janvier. Une histoire singulière, dramatique, et désormais tristement banale.   Eau en sachets en Haïti : attention danger En Haïti, confronté à la violence des gangs et à une insécurité alimentaire chronique, un autre danger pèse sur la population : l'eau contaminée. Une enquête du ministère du Commerce et de l'Industrie a révélé que près de 92% des eaux consommées en Haïti, surtout l'eau vendue en sachets, sont contaminées aux bactéries coliformes, qui indiquent une présence de matières fécales. Mais à Port-au-Prince, l'eau en sachets se vend toujours. Depuis l'enquête, aucune mesure concrète n'a été annoncée, alors que les professionnels de la santé continuent d'alerter sur les risques pour la population. Reportage de notre correspondant à Port-au-Prince, Peterson Luxama.

In a world where spiritual identity is loudly declared and power is constantly performed, what does real embodied authority actually look like? In this uncompromising episode of Inner Voice of Knowing, Kaye Doran explores the difference between authentic power and performative empowerment — and why true Queen and Goddess energy is recognised through presence, not proclamation. This is a return to truth beyond the shadow of belief systems. Kaye dismantles the modern performance of spiritual archetypes and speaks directly to the spiritual ego, language-based empowerment, and the quiet disappearance of initiation and elders. True authority, she explains, is not claimed through titles or social media declarations — it is forged through inner trials, emotional integration, and deep personal transformation. In this episode, you’ll explore: What embodied power really is beyond identity or performance• The difference between authentic authority and assertive language• Why true Queen and Goddess energy is never self-declared• Spiritual initiation and the loss of elder wisdom• Masculine and feminine energy as internal harmony• Speaking truth from frequency rather than force This episode is for those who know that real power is not announced — it is recognisedSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Part Two of our series on Charlotte of Belgium (Empress Carlota of Mexico)… we wish we had better news. When we last left our neglected princess, she and her husband, Archduke Maximilian of Austria, had been approached by Napoleon III and offered the crown of Mexico. Charlotte—starved for purpose and convinced this is her destiny—is all in. Max is less sure, but with the blessing of Pope Pius IX, the new Emperor and Empress set sail for Mexico. Where the dream immediately implodes. What follows is one of the most tragic and debated breakdowns in royal history—and the fall of the Second Mexican Empire. We also draw parallels to one of our classic Queens Podcast episodes on Juana of Castile, another queen labeled “mad” and locked away. If this story leaves you thinking about power, politics, and madness, you can revisit Juana's story here.

Would Mike Evans instantly transform the Giants offense… or is signing an aging star receiver a risky move, even on a “reasonable” deal? Evan and Tiki debate whether the veteran Buccaneers wideout is a slam-dunk target or a move that could age poorly. Then the conversation pivots to Queens, where Carlos Mendoza's recent comments spark major questions. Why has the tone changed on naming Francisco Lindor captain? Is this coming from ownership? And what does it say about leadership inside the Mets clubhouse? Plus, the guys react to the Luke Weaver “Yankees bag” moment, the reality of players switching allegiances in New York, and the swirling rumors about politics, cliques, and chemistry behind the scenes. Tiki offers a blunt take on what a manager should actually know about his locker room and whether “I don't know” is ever an acceptable answer. Giants roster talk, Mets leadership debate, and a deep dive into how much clubhouse dynamics really matter when a season goes sideways.

In the streets of Astoria, Queens, New York City, the Islamic call to prayer now echoes loudly over loudspeakers, blending with everyday American life as pedestrians and vehicles pass by. This amplified broadcast, once limited, expanded significantly after 2023 city policies permitted it on Fridays and during Ramadan without special permits, raising concerns among many that it represents an aggressive push of Islamic practices into public spaces. Critics view the growing presence of these calls as a deliberate step in eroding traditional American culture and freedoms, with no similar accommodations granted to other faiths in comparable settings abroad. Are we seeing the Islamification of America? We also cover: Rhode Island Hockey Shooting We Have a Deal with Cuba? AOC Fact Checks Marco Rubio Kamala Harris Visiting Georgia RIP Rev.

Bobby Jain is the CEO and CIO of Jain Global, a global multi-strategy hedge fund he launched last year that manages about $6 billion with over 350 employees. Bobby's storied Wall Street career includes spending seven years as the Co-CIO of Millenium and twenty at Credit Suisse in a range of leadership roles spanning proprietary trading, derivatives, and asset management. Our conversation traces Bobby's path from growing up as the son of immigrants in Queens to the trading floors of O'Connor and Credit Suisse, all of which shaped his thoughtful, framework-driven perspectives on markets. We explore the evolution of prop trading and the migration of risk taking from banks to hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, and private credit. We then discuss Bobby's ambitious launch, including the principles guiding its design, scale and diversification out of the gate, talent strategy, risk management, portfolio construction, and the many tradeoffs that create the different cultures and complexions of multi-manager hedge funds. We close with Bobby's application of financial innovation to helping others.
