In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers Trump's new work requirements for welfare recipients, job losses from the AI revolution, major trade developments with China, new drone defenses for the Pacific, and the growing risks of a satellite disaster in orbit. Work for Welfare Begins: Starting tomorrow, able-bodied adults ages 18 to 65 without dependents must work at least 80 hours a month to receive food aid under Trump's "Triple B Bill." Exemptions include parents of young children and residents in areas with high unemployment. Bryan warns that states managing these programs may soon raise local taxes to offset new administrative costs. AI Cuts Human Jobs: Amazon and other major tech firms are laying off software engineers as AI begins writing code and automating support work. Bryan calls it "a quiet industrial revolution that's going to reshape America's middle class for decades." Trump and Xi Trade Gains and Tensions: China agreed to buy 12 million metric tons of U.S. soybeans this season, with promises to expand purchases later if relations hold steady. But Xi refused to curb Russian oil imports, signaling Beijing's intent to prolong the war in Ukraine. New U.S. Drone System — The X-BAT: A cutting-edge drone platform called the X-BAT can launch vertically, operate without runways, and land itself like a reusable rocket. Bryan calls it "a game-changer for a future war in the Pacific." A Coming Satellite Crisis: With 100,000 satellites expected in orbit by 2030, experts warn of potential collisions and cascading debris — the "Kessler Syndrome." Bryan explains how one accident could take down global communications and cripple modern life. Venezuela Airstrikes Under Review: Trump is considering airstrikes against Venezuelan drug ports and airfields tied to the Cartel de los Soles. Analysts believe the move could topple Nicolás Maduro and restore democracy under opposition leader María Corina Machado. Europe's Migration Backlash: Germany and Sweden face outrage over migrant crime after courts refused to deport rapists from Eritrea. Bryan highlights how "suicidal empathy" — compassion that undermines security — is destabilizing Western nations. Ukraine's Strain and Russia's Weakness: Russia cut interest rates to ease its stagnant economy while Ukraine faces mass draft dodging as 100,000 young men flee to Europe. Trump responded by reducing U.S. troop levels in Romania to refocus on the Pacific and Latin America. Crisis in Mali: Al Qaeda rebels have surrounded Mali's capital as the U.S. orders citizens to evacuate. Bryan warns that Ukraine's secret aid to jihadist groups could backfire and lead to a new Taliban-style regime in West Africa. Listener Mail — The Morality of Espionage: Bryan answers questions about ethics inside the CIA, sharing personal reflections on moral judgment, mentorship, and the gray zones of intelligence work.

Organizatorul manifestatiei, activistul Marian Rădună a fost amendat cu 3000 de lei, pentru depăşirea orei aprobate pentru manifestare. Insa potrivit legii, pentru comemorari, nu ai obligaţia să notifici autorităţile. Despre excesul de zel al autoritatilor, care s-a transformat intr-o actiune scandaloasa, discutam imediat. Care a miza înfrățirii PSD și AUR? PSD si AUR au facut front comun in Parlament. Premierul e chemat luni in Palament, sa dea explicatii referitoare la retragerea partiala militarilor americani din Romania. Va explicam miza acestui demers. Parlamentul francez a dat unde verde finală pentru schimbarea legii privind violul Acesta trebuie să fie „liber acordat, în cunoștință de cauză și înaintea actului”. Consimțământul poate fi revocat în funcție de circumstanțe și nu poate fi dedus din tăcerea sau lipsă de reacție a partenerului. Legea a fost prezentată prima dată public în ianuarie, când 51 de bărbați au fost condamnați pentru viol și abuz sexual în cazul lui Gisele Pelicot.

In this episode, Tony chatted with director Eduardo Rodriguez to sink his teeth into Fright Night 2: New Blood, a stylish reimagining of the cult classic with a seductive twist. Filmed in the shadowy corners of Romania, this American indie horror follows high schooler Charley Brewster and his friends on a study abroad trip gone terrifyingly wrong. Their professor, the alluring Gerri Dandridge — played with icy charm by Defiance's Jaime Murray — isn't just grading papers… she's hunting prey.

Campionii din lotul paralimpic al României au povești de viață incredibile. Deși s-a născut fără tibii, Gabriela Bantaș, este campioană națională la paracanoe iar Răzvan Nedu, nevăzător în proporție de 99 la sută, este cel mai medaliat sportiv român la para escaladă. Tudor Furdui ne spune povestea celor doi sportivi cu dizabilități care au arătat că voința poate învinge orice obstacol. Campioană pe apă, profesoară pe uscat... Are 29 de ani și s-a născut fără tibii, dar nu a lăsat nici o limitare să o oprească în drumul ei spre performanță. Campioană națională la paracanoe, de profesie meditator de română și engleză, Gabi demonstrează zi de zi că voința poate învinge orice obstacol. Pentru ea nu există „nu pot”. La prima ediție a Campionatelor Naționale, sportiva a urcat de două ori pe prima treaptă a podiumului. „Foarte emoționată, mi-au dat și lacrimile, după competiție, mă emoționez foarte ușor. E ceva excepțional” - Gabriela Bantaș, componentă a lotului național. Când e în caiac, Gabi este cea mai fericită. Acolo se simte cel mai bine de când a încercat pentru prima dată acest sport. Video: Comitetul National Paralimpic, Romania, via Facebook „Este locul meu preferat, sincer, glumesc foarte des că aș dormi acolo, în caiac, îmi place foarte mult și s-a prins virusul ca să zic așa de la bun început. Mi-a plăcut foarte mult în caiac , m-am adaptat foarte rapid și e locul unde aș sta zi lumină” Mereu cu zâmbetul pe buze, tânăra este cea care are tot timpul o vorbă bună pentru fiecare dintre colegii ei. Ea a spus și ce handicap major are și cum a trecut peste: „Vine natural cred să rămâi cu zâmbetul pe buze când faci ceva ce îți place! M-am născut fără tibie la ambele picioare, există practic - cum văd eu - două opțiuni: ori să rămânem blocați în aceste limitări, ori mergem mai departe și vedem ce putem face” - Gabriela Bantaș, componentă a lotului național. Gabi și-a dorit tot timpul să își depășească limitele. Și face niște lucruri care până și pentru un om normal sunt dificile: „Îmi place și să merg pe role. Am mers pe role chiar și cu ortezele, port aceste dispozitive medicale să mă ajute să merg” - Gabriela Bantaș, componentă a lotului național. Atunci când nu e la antrenamente și la concursuri, ea nu are timp să se plictisească: „Predau limba română străinilor, dar și engleză românilor care vor să învețe. Mai și consiliez elevi care vor să aplice în străinătate” Vede doar 1% și e campion mondial la paraescaladă! Un alt sportiv paralimpic care are o poveste de viață uluitoare este Răzvan Nedu, cel mai medaliat român la para escaladă sportul în care este și căpitanul echipei naționale. Răzvan și-a mai trecut în palmares o medalie strălucitoare: aurul la Campionatul Mondial de la Seul, acolo unde România s-a clasat pe locul 5 din 29 de țări. „Titlu de campion mondial este doar o încununare a muncii de aproape 9 ani jumate de când m-am apucat de cățărat și de antrenamente, de multe ore de antrenament”, spune el. Răzvan Nedu practică de aproape 20 de ani paraescalada și când s-a apucat de acest sport și-a făcut o promisiune! Să i se cânte Imnul României! „Când l-am ascultat, am simțit efectiv o relaxare în tot corpul și o bucurie și acel fior, acea emoție, care nu poate fi descrisă, dar care apare atunci când ascult imnul țării mele” La Campionatul Mondial de la Seul, România a terminat pe locul 5 din 29 de țări! „A fost ceva ce nici măcar nu ne-am propus sau nu visam! Incredibil că am fost în fața unor țări ca Marea Britanie, Spania, Italia, care au o infrastructură mult mai dezvoltată. Secretul e să muncești pentru că degeaba ai condiții dacă nu ai sportiv” Răzvan va fi și el prezent la Los Angeles în 2028 la Jocurile Paralimpice. Acum el are 29 de ani și nu știe cum arată lumea pentru că s-a născut cu o deficiență majoră de vedere. „Medicii spun că văd undeva aproximativ 1%. Este din naștere. Folosesc bastonul alb atunci când merg” Răzvan nu doar concurează, ci și antrenează! „Mă antrenez de la 9 la 13, iar apoi de la 13 la 9 lucrez. Deci e o zi full, eu lucrez ca și antrenor de escaladă, învăț copii tineri să se cațăre și să-și depășească limitele. Rămân mereu în sala de cățărat”
Amazon introduces its new AI feature “Help Me Decide” – a shopping assistant that uses your browsing and search history to make suggestions for your next purchase.

Alex Buciu's story reads like something from another era. From endodontics in Romania to amalgams in Northern Ireland, his path through dentistry mirrors a deeper journey through loss, resilience and reinvention. When your mum dies at 14 and you're watching it happen, something shifts inside. When you arrive in a new country with £3,100 in your pocket—half of it borrowed—you learn what matters. Alex talks about communication trumping clinical skill every time, about choosing kindness when you're capable of violence, and why he'd rather be a brilliant generalist than a mediocre anything-else. There's philosophy here, hard-won wisdom, and the kind of honesty that only comes from someone who's genuinely fought for everything they have.In This Episode00:02:15 - Qualifying in Romania and building an endodontics practice 00:03:10 - The shock of NHS dentistry 00:08:40 - Why leave Romania 00:18:45 - Finding mentor Kieran 00:20:05 - Arriving with £3,100 00:26:00 - How to choose courses wisely 00:26:45 - The occlusion eureka moment 00:32:05 - Why not endodontics in the UK 00:37:35 - Moving to Peterborough 00:42:45 - Building from zero patients 00:44:00 - Favourite courses and lecturers 00:52:40 - Communication beats clinical skill 00:58:15 - Growing up under Ceaușescu 01:08:25 - Losing his mother at 14 01:14:20 - Volunteering in trauma 01:17:10 - Near-death experiences 01:24:50 - Blackbox thinking 01:35:40 - Fantasy dinner party 01:41:55 - Last days and legacyAbout Alex BuciuAlex qualified in Romania in 2004 and built a successful endodontics-focused practice before moving to Northern Ireland in 2018, later settling in Peterborough. He works as a private associate, focusing on restorative dentistry, occlusion and TMD, with a particular passion for continuous education and patient communication. Despite significant personal challenges, including arriving in the UK with minimal resources, he's built a reputation as an excellence-driven clinician who believes communication matters more than clinical perfection.
Statele Unite isi redimensioneaza trupele din Europa si retrag aproximativ 800 de soldați de la baza Mihail Kogălniceanu. Aproximativ 1.000 de militari americani vor rămâne dislocați în țara noastră. Presedintele Nicuşor Dan sustine ca securitatea României şi a flancului estic nu va fi în niciun fel diminuată. Parteneriatul strategic rămâne în aceiaşi parametri. Daca e totusi o actiune care vulnerabilizeaza Romania si daca Rusia va specula acest moment, discutam imediat. Cui îi e frică de Oana Gheorghiu? PSD ar trebui sa se retraga de la guvernare daca continua sa faca opozitie in interiorul Coalitiei. Este opinia politologului Cristian Preda, profesor de științe politice la Universitatea din București dupa ce Sorin Grindeanu i-a cerut premierului sa retraga nominalizarea Oanei Gheorghiu pentru functia de vicepremier, mutare care in opinia liderului social-democrat ar dauna relatiei cu Statele Unite. Premierul desemnat al R.Moldova, Alexandru Munteanu, a avut consultări cu fracțiunile din opoziția parlamentară Socialiștii, comuniștii, deputații din partidul lui Costiuc și fracțiunea lui Renato Usatîi, spun că nu vor vota noul Guvern. Iar deputații din blocul ”Alternativa” se mai gândesc. Consultările vin după ce candidatul desemnat a prezentat echipa alaturi de care va merge vineri în Parlament pentru a cere votul de încredere. Donald Trump a anunţat că nu se va întâlni cu liderul nord-coreean Kim Jong Un în timpul turneului său asiatic aflat în desfăşurare, întrucât nu au putut „conveni momentul”. Intre timp, Phenianul a efectuat un nou test cu rachete balistice chiar înaintea sosirii preşedintelui american în Coreea de Sud, unde are loc summitul Forumului de Cooperare Economică Asia-Pacific.

True Crime Tuesday presents: Sisters In Death: The Black Dahlia, The Prairie Heiress, and Their Hunter with Producer/ Network Executive/Director/Creator/Author. Eli Frankel! Who killed the Black Dahlia? In this eye-opening shocker, an award-winning producer, true-crime researcher, and Hollywood insider finally solves the greatest - and most gruesome - murder mystery of the twentieth century just before its 80th anniversary. In January 1947, the bisected body of Elizabeth Short, completely drained of blood, was discovered in an undeveloped lot in Los Angeles. Its gruesome mutilations led to a firestorm of publicity, city-wide panic, and an unprecedented number of investigative paths led by the LAPD—all dead ends. The Black Dahlia murder remained an unsolved mystery for over seventy years. Six years earlier and sixteen hundred miles away, another woman's life had ended in a similarly horrific manner. Leila Welsh was an ambitious, educated, popular, and socially connected beauty. Though raised modestly on a prairie farm, she was heiress to her Kansas City family's status and wealth. On a winter morning in 1941, Leila's butchered body was found in her bedroom bearing the marks of unspeakable trauma. One victim faded into obscurity. The other became notorious. Both had in common a killer whose sadistic mind was a labyrinth of dark secrets. On Today's TCT, Eli Frankel joins us to talk about why he believes he has found the definitive killer in the Black Dahlia case after five grueling years of research. Eli also makes his case and draws the parallels between the two girls, not just in the similar ways they were killed, but in the one person they had in common that they both knew! and another interesting theory comes up during the show as to why the Black Dahlia Case stalled out and went cold!

Ep. 357: Radu Jude on his new film Dracula, plus One Battle After Another, shooting his next film, and more Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. Radu Jude's latest film, Dracula, is a fervidly imaginative, joyously profane look at this enduring myth through multiple stories, riffing on past tellings, a dinner theater, Francis Ford Coppola's film, a sweatshop run by vampires, assorted AI grotesquerie, and more. As a fan of Radu Jude's work, I couldn't resist another conversation with the multiple-award-winning Romanian director of Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World. He also dug into the history of the Dracula story in Romania and shared his recent viewing and reading, including thoughts on One Battle After Another. Dracula opens in theaters on October 29.

IG: PaulMuzichuk FB: Paul Muzichuk www.tscjax.com; www.arisebiblicalcounseling.com Moment of Reflection: Maria shared how she prayed specifically for her son's protection the night before their terrifying elopement incident. How important it is to pray for our children. Reflect: What are some specific things you can begin praying over your own child, your family, or even the families around you? How might God be leading you to intercede on someone else's behalf? Spend some time with those questions and then spend some time talking to God about it.
Mentor Sessions Ep. 036: Prince Filip of Serbia on Bitcoin Nation States, Hyperbitcoinization, TradFi Escape, Monarchy Revival & Serbia's 313M% Hyperinflation LessonsWhat happens when a prince trades asset management for Bitcoin nation-state adoption? In this conversation, Prince Filip of Serbia—heir to the throne and CSO at Jan3 (Samson Mow's Bitcoin-only firm)—walks us through pitching BTC reserves to emperors, presidents and central banks. From Top Down Japan's politicians and emperor to bottom up hyperbitcoinization via Aqua Wallet. Drawing from his TradFi days in quantitative equities, he exposes factor investing's FOMO trap—where sentiment and momentum crush fundamentals in a money-printing world. Bitcoin clarified monarchy for him: low-time preference rulers beat democracy's corruption cycles (shoutout Polybius). We unpack Serbia's 313,000,000% monthly hyperinflation that wiped life savings in days, Yugoslavia's fiat-fueled collapse, and revival whispers in Serbia, Romania and France. Price suppression by whales? Hyperbitcoinization breaks it. Monarchy + Bitcoin = stable governance. Plus Flag theory picks: Switzerland (no cap gains), UAE, Serbia rising.

Anastasia is an entrepreneur (founder of Anastasia Beverly Hills) and author of Raising Brows: My Story of Building a Billion Dollar Beauty Empire. From watching Oprah in Romania without speaking a word of English to eventually calling her a friend—and doing her brows—Anastasia Soare's story is the definition of the American dream. In this episode, we go deep into how she created an entire beauty category, built a global brand from scratch, and what she learned along the way. Anastasia shares how she went from working in a Melrose Place salon to shaping the faces of icons like Cindy Crawford, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Naomi Campbell, and the mindset that helped her persevere through countless “no's.” We also talk about the biggest misconceptions about entrepreneurship, how to make calculated mistakes, and the habits that keep her grounded. Plus, she reveals what's really in her beauty bag, her go-to skincare and makeup hacks, and her honest thoughts on microblading.This episode is brought to you by:Go to BellamiHair.com and use code WELL to get 25% off your first clip-in order and book a free consultation.

He was born early in the thirteenth century to a peasant family in the village of Basarov, then part of Bulgaria. Even in childhood, he gave himself to fasting and prayer. Once, walking across a field, he accidentally stepped on a bird's nest in the grass, killing the young birds. He was so filled with remorse that he went barefoot for three years, winter and summer, in penance. When he was grown he joined a monastery and, after a few years of community life, received a blessing to dwell in a cave near the River Lom. After many years of solitary struggle, he reposed in his cave. Three hundred years passed, during which all memory of the simple ascetic was lost. Then, one Spring the river flooded the cave and carried off Demetrius' body, which had lain incorrupt in the cave for centuries. The body was carried downstream and buried in gravel. Another hundred years went by, and the Saint appeared in a dream to a paralyzed girl, telling her to ask her parents to take her to the river bank, where she would be healed. The family, along with many clergy and villagers, went to a spot where some local people had earlier seen an unexplained light. They dug and soon unearthed the still-incorrupt and radiant body of St Demetrius, by which the girl was instantly healed. A church was built in the village of Basarabov to honor the precious relics, and through the years the Saint worked many miracles there.
Some people talk about perseverance. Coach Taneka Rubin lives it.From her humble beginnings to Division I basketball, from playing overseas to mentoring the next generation at Montverde Academy, Coach Rubin's story is proof that faith, focus, and hard work can turn any detour into destiny.In this Sports Life Talk: You Got Next episode, Head Coach KT and B Jones sit down with Coach Rubin to unpack her incredible journey — one that started without hype or headlines but evolved into a blueprint for young athletes chasing their dreams.Coach Rubin's story begins where most would have stopped — with an injury her senior year that sidelined her at a critical moment. But while others might've seen the end, she saw a reset.Starting at a community college, she grinded her way to the Division I stage at Florida A&M University (FAMU), where she learned lessons that shaped her entire career. “I needed that path,” she says. “It made me tougher — emotionally, academically, and athletically.”It's a reminder to every young athlete: you don't need the perfect start to create a powerful ending.After college, the dream didn't stop. Coach Rubin packed her bags and took her game international — playing professionally in England, Portugal, Spain, and Romania.The experience was more than basketball; it was personal growth on a global scale. “I learned patience, discipline, and how to adapt,” she says. “You realize basketball is a universal language — it connects people everywhere.”Her overseas career also came with its challenges, including a full year of uncertainty before her first contract. But true to form, she stayed ready. “That's what winners do — we prepare even when we can't see what's next.”Now, as an assistant coach at Montverde Academy, one of the top prep programs in the country, Coach Rubin is doing what she does best — developing leaders.“I try to be the mentor I needed when I was younger,” she says. Her players don't just learn X's and O's — they learn accountability, teamwork, and how to handle the pressure that comes with elite competition.Her message is simple: “You can't do it alone. Trust your teammates. Learn from everyone. And remember, effort costs nothing.”Whether she's coaching a future WNBA star or a student-athlete chasing a scholarship, Coach Rubin's influence stretches far beyond the scoreboard.In 2019, Coach Rubin turned her philosophy into a movement with her book, Winners Win. The book is part motivation, part memoir — a guide for anyone chasing excellence.“Everybody has a book inside them,” she says. “For me, this was about sharing what I've learned — not just as a player, but as a person.”Through her writing and her motivational videos on social media, she's become a digital mentor for athletes around the world. Her short, powerful messages on mindset, purpose, and persistence remind followers daily that greatness isn't an accident — it's a habit.“When someone says, ‘That video helped me,' that's what keeps me going,” she says.At Montverde, Coach Rubin is helping build something bigger than basketball — a global student-athlete development program that blends competition, character, and culture.“I want to prepare them for life, not just for the game,” she says. “Basketball will end one day, but leadership, discipline, and confidence last forever.”And with Montverde's next season on the horizon, Coach Rubin's fingerprints are all over a program ready to make history — not just in wins, but in the kind of people it produces.Coach Taneka Rubin's journey is proof that detours don't derail destiny — they define it. From overcoming injuries to playing overseas to mentoring future stars, her message rings loud and clear:“Make excellence a habit. Trust the process. Winners win.”So whether you're chasing a scholarship, a dream job, or just a better version of yourself, take a page from Coach Rubin's playbook — stay ready, stay humble, and never stop learning.
Author Tui Snyder joins Jim to explore some of the world's most extraordinary burial sites and the stories they tell. From marble sculptures depicting a lover's final farewell to wooden crosses painted with cheeky epitaphs in Romania, Tui reveals how art, humor, and faith intertwine in graveyards across the globe. Together they discuss the evolution of cemetery art — from the grand monuments of the Victorian era to today's simpler markers — and what those changes reveal about how we view life and death. Tui also shares highlights from her travels to places like Milan's Cimitero Monumentale, where thousands of life-size sculptures turn the cemetery into an open-air museum. It's a moving, fascinating conversation about the beauty and meaning found in the world's “amazing graves.” You can find Around The World In 80 Graves at Amazon: https://amzn.to/4oBoZsf Thanks Tui! --- OCTOBER SPECIAL: Get a 14 DAY FREE TRIAL OF SPOOKY STUDIO PLUS ON APPLE PODCASTS ONLY! https://apple.co/spooky This post contains Amazon affiliate links that benefit Jim Harold Media when you make a qualifying purchase.

Episode 170 is live! - 3 Oregon State Championships - 2011 McDonald's All-American - University of Kentucky (2012 National Champion) - Gonzaga University (A cool 20.6 and 6 RPG in his senior year) - Houston Rockets - 10+ years as an overseas pro, and still rolling The overall resume has to be one of the best we've seen on AHJ, but the dude we chop it up with is even better. Kyle Wiltjer grew up with a dad who put Canada first, and although Greg started hoops late at age 18, he ended up having a storied career as well, an example for Kyle to see and possibly follow! As stated, that set the tone as Kyle grew up in Oregon, attending Jesuit high school and really flourishing as a player, BUT….he was a dual citizen and was available to play for Canada. Since then, the 6'10 shooter has played for the National Team many times; however Kyle has found himself back with the Senior squad after a short break, and as you will hear, it means a lot to him. Between the Canada basketball experiences, Kyle attended two of the best NCAA programs in Kentucky and Gonzaga, and we discuss what it was like playing for both those coaching legends, and the style they brought! Wiltj comes across “cool as a fan”, but don't get it twisted, this is one of Canada's finest ever and an episode worth checking out. We chopped it up while on the road in Romania, so we really do appreciate Kyle's time being with us!

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Russia's been caught building a secret undersea spy network in the Arctic — powered by Western technology. We'll explain how the system works, what it means for NATO, and why this undersea network could shift the balance of power in the next great intelligence contest. Later, European security services foil another Russian terror plot. Authorities in Poland and Romania say they've stopped a plan to send explosive parcels to Ukraine — part of Moscow's growing campaign of sabotage across the continent.

In November 1989, the world changed when the Berlin Wall came down, marking the beginning of the unraveling of the Iron Curtain. Almost a month later, on December 16, 1989, Romania faced a sudden revolution that led to the fall of its central government in just over a week. While Romania was one of many Eastern European Communist countries that revolted in 1989, the revolution there, unlike those in other countries, was violent and deadly.

Silicon Bites Ep261 - Day 1,338 - 2025-10-23 | In this episode we follow the fumes: fires and explosions at refineries in Hungary and Romania, rumors of an apparent accident in Slovakia, and what unites all three refineries – their handling of Russian crude oil. Also, fresh U.S. and U.K. sanctions on Russia's oil giants, pressure on India's bulk buys of Russian crude, and Europe's newest squeeze on the shadow — or “grey” — fleet. Are we finally seeing the public and covert playbook to choke the Kremlin's oil revenues that are sustaining its war machine? ----------SOURCES: AP (Oct 21): “Firefighters… have contained a blaze… No injuries have been reported.” (Hungary)Digi24 summary via Ukranews (Oct 21): “a localized explosion in the industrial sewage system.” (Romania).

Exploring the cultural history of surveillance practices of the Securitate, Romania's secret police during its communist period, the book blends biographical details in a historical inquiry to establish the concepts of psuchegraphy, dossierveillance, and banalization of evil in the study of Securitate Archives. In the context of communist Romania under the reign of Nicolae Ceauşescu (1965-89), dossierveillance was a type of surveillance that stresses the miasmic effect of Securitate dossiers in the daily life of Romanians. Centered around the analysis of this concept, Dossierveillance, Collaboration, and Fear in Society: The Saga of a Journey Through the Securitate Archives and Beyond (Routledge, 2025) presents a unique account of the surveillance practices of totalitarian and authoritarian regimes, expanding its relevance to fear in the current neo-liberal societies. This book will appeal to students of Eastern European history and politics, criminology, sociology, anthropology, and surveillance studies. Learn more about your ad choices.

Farnoosh sits down with beauty icon Anastasia Soare, founder of Anastasia Beverly Hills and author of the new memoir Raising Brows. Known as the “Eyebrow Queen,” Anastasia shares how she built a billion-dollar brand from scratch after immigrating from communist Romania with nothing but determination. She opens up about learning the “alphabet of finance” in America, the early days shaping brows in a rented salon room, and the business risks that changed her life. Anastasia also reveals how she convinced Nordstrom to take a chance on her products, her unforgettable live TV moment shaping Oprah's brows, and the negotiation lessons that still guide her today. She talks candidly about working alongside her daughter Claudia, what keeps her motivated decades into her career, and how she continues to innovate while staying grounded. This is a story about beauty, grit, and building an empire one brow—and one bold move—at a time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Exploring the cultural history of surveillance practices of the Securitate, Romania's secret police during its communist period, the book blends biographical details in a historical inquiry to establish the concepts of psuchegraphy, dossierveillance, and banalization of evil in the study of Securitate Archives. In the context of communist Romania under the reign of Nicolae Ceauşescu (1965-89), dossierveillance was a type of surveillance that stresses the miasmic effect of Securitate dossiers in the daily life of Romanians. Centered around the analysis of this concept, Dossierveillance, Collaboration, and Fear in Society: The Saga of a Journey Through the Securitate Archives and Beyond (Routledge, 2025) presents a unique account of the surveillance practices of totalitarian and authoritarian regimes, expanding its relevance to fear in the current neo-liberal societies. This book will appeal to students of Eastern European history and politics, criminology, sociology, anthropology, and surveillance studies. Learn more about your ad choices.

Listen in as we examine some great NUFORC UFO cases from Romania. From swarms of orbs to flying cubes to head on collisions with fighter jets, Romania is at the center of a UFO wave.
Într-un episod special al podcastului IGDLCC, l-am avut invitat pe Dragoș Cabat, un analist economic lucid și un Chartered Financial Analyst. Am discutat despre măsurile economice propuse de noul guvern, inclusiv creșterea TVA-ului, și am încercat să înțelegem ce înseamnă toate astea pentru finanțele noastre personale și antreprenoriale. Aparent, soluțiile radicale sunt singurele pe termen scurt, o "chirurgie cu toporul" pentru a rezolva deficitul și a ne asigura că primim banii din fondurile europene. Am analizat cauzele acestei situații, de la corupție până la creșterea forțată a economiei românești. Însă, am căutat și oportunitățile care pot apărea într-o criză. Am vorbit și despre administrația publică și sistemul politic , dar și despre decalajul dintre orașele mari și zonele rurale. Am concluzionat că, deși am recuperat mult, încă mai avem de lucru pentru a ajunge din urmă Occidentul. Vă promit o conversație plină de claritate pentru a înțelege prezentul și a ne pregăti mai bine pentru viitor. IGDLCC înseamnă Informații Gratis despre Lucruri care Costă! Totul ne costă dar mai ales timpul așa că am făcut această serie pentru a mă informa și educa alături de invitați din domeniile mele de interes. Te invit alături de mine în această călătorie. Mi-am propus să mă facă mai informat și mai adaptat la schimbările care vin. Sper să o facă și pentru tine.

True Crime Tuesday presents The People Vs. The Golden State Killer with Attorney/District Attorney of Sacremento/Author, Thien Ho! In The People vs. the Golden State Killer, Thien Ho, the current District Attorney of Sacramento, recounts his harrowing and exhilarating experience as the lead prosecutor responsible for capturing and prosecuting Joseph DeAngelo. Referred to at various times by law enforcement and the media as the Visalia Ransacker, the East Bay Rapist, the Original Nightstalker, and finally the Golden State Killer, DeAngelo, a former policeman, is widely considered “one of the most notorious serial predators in American history.” Ho's book is the first official account of how the Golden State Killer was apprehended and put behind bars for life. Ho led an elite team of law enforcement from six California prosecutor's offices, using a newly developed tool known as “investigative genetic genealogy” to connect DeAngelo to multiple cold cases stretching back nearly a half century. Many previous narratives about DeAngelo, including two bestselling books and multiple documentaries, focused largely on the killer and his heinous crimes. This book not only provides hundreds of facts and details never revealed to the public about the Golden State Killer's crimes, it also presents the real-life story of the people who worked tirelessly to bring DeAngelo to justice. It also offers the unprecedented authorized perspective of three survivors of DeAngelo's crimes who courageously turned their pain into empowerment and activism. A portion of the book's proceeds will be donated both by the author and Third State Books to Phyllis's Garden, a nonprofit advocating for victims' rights begun in honor of a GSK survivor. On Today's True Crime Tuesday, we talk to Thien Ho about how he and his family fled from Vietnam in the early 70's, and how he went from not even knowing English when he came to this country, to wanting to defend his fellow citizens from the worst of the worst! We talk about how he got the case of Joseph DeAngelo assigned to him, the challenges he had to overcome to get an indictment and then a conviction, and then justice for the victims that, for the first time in his career, he made a PROMISE that he would deliver a guilty verdict to! PLUS AN ALL-NEW DUMB CRIMES/STUPID CRIMINALS W/TRAVIS THORPE!

It's Tuesday, October 21st, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Xi Jinping fired 9 Chinese military commanders China's communist system is in turmoil, as the defense ministry announces the removal of nine very senior military commanders from duty, including a number two general, He Weidong. Since 2023, the communist leader, Xi Jinping, has administered the removal of dozens of senior officers. These moves signal a factionalism from within the party and the Chinese military. Experts question whether Jinping will survive in his position. This week, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China is holding its Fourth Plenary Session where leaders will work out a Five-Year Plan. The outcome of this meeting will reveal Jinping's standing in party politics. Keep in mind: God is in control. Haggai 2:22 says, “The word of the Lord came unto Haggai … I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms. … I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, everyone by the sword of his brother.” Pakistani pastor survives murder plot A Pakistani pastor survived a murder attempt in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, on the morning of Sunday, September 21, reports Barnabas Aid. Pastor Kamran Naz had been traveling by bus, accompanied by his mother, from his home in Gujranwala to lead a church service in Islamabad when he was attacked by two unidentified gunmen. One bullet wounded the pastor in the right leg. A second bullet narrowly missed his head. The attackers then fled on a motorcycle as some church members who were present swiftly came to the pastor's aid and contacted emergency services. Pastor Kamran had previously notified the police of numerous death threats. He was warned to stop ministering at the church or face the consequences. Pastor Imran Amanat, leader of the Christian advocacy group LEAD Ministries Pakistan, said, “We will not be intimidated or silenced. We demand that the authorities immediately ensure the protection of Christian leaders and hold the criminals accountable. If the government continues to ignore these threats, it becomes complicit in the persecution.” According to Open Doors, Pakistan is the eighth most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. Swedish parents lost custody over kids' required church attendance Certain European nations have now been recognized for their systemic violation of parental rights, especially if the parents happen to be Christian. Alliance Defending Freedom International is working on a case in Sweden, where parents have lost custody of their children under charges of “religious extremism.” The parents had simply restricted the phone use of their teen children and required attendance at church meetings. After three years of attempts to regain custody, Daniel and Bianca Samson are appealing their case to the European Court of Human Rights. Recently, the High Court has already condemned countries like Spain, Portugal, Italy, Croatia, and Romania for systemic violations in family separation and child welfare cases. Iran threatens Israel Iran's Ayatollah Ali Khamenei took to social media (X) yesterday, effectively taunting the American government, threatening Israel, and asserting independence for the nation's nuclear program. He asked, “What authority do you, Americans, have to dictate what a country should or shouldn't do if it possesses nuclear industry? What position do you hold in the world? How is it any of America's business whether Iran has nuclear capabilities and nuclear industry or not? .. . The U.S. President boasts that they've bombed and destroyed Iran's nuclear industry. Very well, in your dreams!” Trump urges Putin and Zelenskyy to end the war President Donald Trump is urging Ukraine's leader, Volodymyr Zelenskyy to end the war on Russia's terms. He warned Zelenskyy of Russian President Vladimir Putin's threat to “destroy” Ukraine it there is no agreement. The Financial Times described the meeting as a “shouting match”, with Trump throwing maps in the room, and “cursing all the time.” Japan greenlights Morning After Pill Japan has just approved the abortifacient drug known as the over-the-counter “morning after” pill. Japan also approved the RU-486 abortion kill pill back in April 2023. Japan recorded 686,000 births in 2024. That's down from 762,000 in 2023, and down from 2,000,000 in 1975. Jeremiah 32:35 speaks of this child sacrifice. “They built the high places of Baal in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to offer up their sons and daughters to Molech, though I did not command them, nor did it enter into my mind, that they should do this abomination.” Day 21 of U.S. government shutdown The U.S. government shutdown is rounding its 21st day. With 900,000 employees furloughed, the shutdown represents the most severe in American history. Indeed, 7,850 flights were delayed due to air traffic control staffing shortages on Sunday. According to TheHill.com, 13,000 air traffic controllers and 50,000 TSA agents are presently working without pay. Housing bubble has burst The housing bubble has burst in multiple cities across the United States. The median house values in Oakland, California and Austin, Texas have dropped by 24% since the peak in 2022. Significant declines have also been reported in New Orleans, San Francisco, Fort Myers, Florida, and Denver, Colorado, reports WolfStreet.com. Gold and silver hit new record highs Metals continued their journey upwards and onwards in Monday's market activity. Gold hit $4,350 per ounce and silver hit $52 and change per ounce, reports Reuters. Trump's Education Dept. funds conservative ideology at colleges The Trump Education Department is offering preferential funding for those universities willing to bend more conservative. Only Vanderbilt, the University of Arizona, and the University of Texas at Austin have embraced to the idea out of the nine universities approached with the proposal, reports Breitbart. MIT, Brown University, the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Southern California have all rejected the Trump administration's encouragement to abolish their departments opposed to conservative ideas. Major jewel heist at Louvre in Paris, France And finally, a team of four thieves broke into the Louvre Museum in Paris over the weekend. They stole priceless jewels dating back to the 19th Century, reports Reuters. Among the stolen items were a tiara and brooch belonging to Empress Eugénie, wife of Napoleon III, an emerald necklace and a pair of emerald earrings from Empress Marie Louise, Napolean's second wife, and a tiara, a necklace, and single earring from the sapphire set that belonged to Queen Marie-Amelie and Queen Hortense. (Also a brooch known as the "reliquary brooch” was taken). Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, October 21st, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Britain's Prince Andrew says he will no longer use his royal titles amid renewed scrutiny over his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The move follows allegations detailed in accuser Virginia Giuffre's upcoming posthumous memoir, as King Charles and Prince William reportedly urged him to step back further from royal duties. In a statement, Prince Andrew said “continued accusations” “distract from the work of the royal family,” though he continues to deny the allegations against him.

The legends of vampires extend far beyond Romania and Stoker's "Dracula." Most are based on five major pillars: misunderstandings of decomposition and death, porphyria, rabies, improper burials, and either accidents or grave disturbances. The majority of these monsters can be repelled by garlic since it kills bacteria, fungus, and the like, including parasites. In some cases the vampire consumes only life force, as in China, though the idea of Qi or Prana (India), is found within the vital life-carrying substance of blood itself. Interestingly, researcher have found that blood does in fact carry the literal ability of rejuvenating the old, something reported by Stanford and Harvard. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

True Crime Tuesday presents Every Killer Leaves A Trace: The Fatal Mistakes That Exposed America's Most Elusive Killers with Researcher/Investigator/Author, Dennis Carson! They blended in. They raised families, held steady jobs, and hid in plain sight. But behind the mask of normalcy, they were monsters—responsible for decades of terror, pain, and death. Every Killer Leaves A Trace is a chilling narrative nonfiction thriller that exposes moments that led to the shocking unmasking and ultimate capture of twenty-six of America's most elusive killers. From accidental slips to cutting-edge forensic breakthroughs, each chapter reveals how justice caught up with murderers who thought they'd never be found. Meticulously researched and drawn from court records, autopsy reports, FBI case files, and firsthand interviews with investigators and victims' families, this book is a haunting journey through deception, violence, and the relentless pursuit of truth. These are not just stories of murder. They are blueprints of how justice, though often delayed, is never truly denied. They got away with murder—until they didn't. On Today's True Crime Tuesday, we talk to Dennis Carson about some of the motives of America's most famous serial killers and why and what trips thee devious criminals up in the end! Whether it be a mistake on the criminals' part, a victim who is quick on their feet, or circumstances beyond anyone's control... something almost ALWAYS gets them in the end!
