Aviation and marine transport together account for approximately 15% of global oil consumption—a substantial share driven by sectors that are among the hardest to decarbonize. Unlike road transport or power generation, these industries face unique constraints: the high energy density required, long operating ranges, and the limitations of onboard storage mean that electrification or hydrogen solutions remain technologically and economically unfeasible in the near to medium term.In response, policymakers and industry leaders are increasingly focusing on low-carbon liquid fuels as transitional solutions. Chief among these are Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA), both of which can be used in existing infrastructure and engines with minimal modification. These fuels can be of biological origin—typically derived from waste oils, agricultural residues, or purpose-grown feedstocks—or synthetic origin, such as Power-to-Liquid (PtL) fuels produced via electrolysis and CO₂ capture.Globally, significant efforts are underway to scale up these alternatives. The European Union, for instance, has introduced blending mandates through the ReFuelEU Aviation and FuelEU Maritime regulations, requiring a gradual increase in the share of SAF or other renewable fuels used in transport. These policies are supported by a range of subsidies, research programs, and emissions trading mechanisms (e.g., EU ETS inclusion for aviation and shipping), all designed to stimulate supply and demand for cleaner fuels.To help unpack the complex interplay of technical, economic, and regulatory challenges, we invited Callum McPherson, Chair of its Sustainable Business Forum and Head of Commodities at Investec, a London-based investment bank. With a mandate to structure and trade a wide array of fuels, Callum provides real-world insight into how these markets are evolving—and the limitations that remain.Some of the key topics Laurent and Gerard explored with Callum included: Which green fuels have realistic pathways to scale, and which are unlikely to work due to poor energy return on investment, unsustainable feedstocks, or prohibitively high costs? How will regional mandates, particularly those in the EU, impact global markets—and will they be enforceable in practice? What role will synthetic fuels play, given their dependence on clean electricity, high capital costs, and still-immature supply chains?What emerges is a highly nuanced picture. Despite the political momentum and technological progress, the fundamental economics remain challenging. Current estimates suggest that the cost of abating one tonne of CO₂ in these sectors can easily exceed €1,000 requiring considerable public support, whether stick or carrot.High costs and regulatory uncertainties are probably some of the reasons why Shell has decided not to complete the construction of a SAF refinery in Rotterdam.Laurent and Gerard conclude that while green fuels are a necessary part of the decarbonization toolkit, they are far from a silver bullet. The financial and ecological trade-offs are significant, and at current cost trajectories, these fuels will make only a marginal dent in overall emissions curves—at least in the near term.  Finally, an excellent book on the general topic of biofuels by Michael Grunwald:  "We Are Eating the Earth: The Race to Fix Our Food System and Save Our Climate."“The views and opinions expressed by Callum Macpherson are his own and are provided for information purposes only and should not be construed as investment advice, recommendation, or an offer to buy or sell any financial products or commodities.

Er is deze week een hoop te bespreken. Vriends heeft zichzelf een heus Australisch accent aangemeten en laten we in godsnaam hopen dat de mannen nooit in een gevecht terechtkomen. Twee van de drie kunnen niet uitdelen en eveneens twee van de drie kunnen een 100 procent sprint niet meer aan. Ken toch lastig worden dan.

Na een wedstrijd in de Kuip die beter liep dan verwacht, maar waar we desondanks verloren, is het deze week tijd om in Radio Camataru vooruit te blikken op de volgende wedstrijd. NEC Nijmegen komt op bezoek in ons eigen Abe Lenstra Stadion en is sterk aan het seizoen begonnen. Met attractief voetbal en veel aanvallend ingestelde spelers kan het wel eens een interessant potje worden. Hoe kunnen we daar het beste als winnaar uit de strijd komen? Deze week geen Frank én geen Redmer, maar regioambassadeur Albert Veen schuift wel aan bij Dave en Marnix in de digitale studio. Nadat er kort toch nog even teruggeblikt is op de wedstrijd in Rotterdam en de voorspellingscompetitie is besproken gaat de blik vooruit. Een vernieuwd NEC dat het zeker waard is om eens onder de loep te nemen. Normaal speelt NEC al met weinig verdedigers maar nu zijn er, net als bij ons, ook nog eens een hoop geblesseerd. Er wordt besproken wat voor kansen dat oplevert voor de Friezen. Moeten wij gaan "spiegelen" zoals PSV deed of moet er op dezelfde wijze gevoetbald blijven worden? De gast van deze week, Albert, heeft een mooi lijstje voorbereid van spelers met een verleden bij zowel sc Heerenveen als NEC en daagt Dave en Marnix hier flink mee uit. 18 namen stonden op het lijstje, dat redden ze niet, maar ze komen wel in de buurt! Uiteraard komen ook de historische ontmoetingen weer ter sprake waarbij Albert er ook twee uitlicht. Wanneer het over het huidige sc Heerenveen gaat dan kan een discussie over het middenveld, de gehavende verdediging, de spitspositie en het debuut van onze nieuwe keeper natuurlijk niet achterwege blijven (én dat zit er dus ook allemaal in). Zouden al die overpeinzingen nog steeds leiden tot positieve voorspellingen in de studio? Dat alles en nog veel meer hoor je deze week weer in een nieuwe Radio Camataru! 

In deze aflevering van Met Open Vizier is Sander de Kramer te gast: journalist, programmamaker en onvermoeibaar strijder voor dak- en thuislozen, kinderen in oorlogsgebieden en meer onrecht in de wereldIn een openhartig gesprek vertelt hij over zijn bijzondere levensweg. Van zijn eerste ontmoetingen met daklozen in Rotterdam tot zijn jarenlange inzet in Sierra Leone, waar hij duizenden kinderen uit diamantmijnen haalde. En over het brengen van verwarmingen naar getroffen huizen in Oekraïne.Sander spreekt over de harde lessen van het leven op straat, zijn gevoel dat hem soms redde, onderhandelingen, ontmoetingen met Johan Cruijff, én over zijn overtuiging dat idealisme en menselijkheid de wereld écht kunnen veranderen.Een indrukwekkend gesprek vol verhalen die je bijblijven!Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Als baby wordt Anèstos uit Griekenland geadopteerd door een strenggelovig Nederlands echtpaar. Zijn benauwende opvoeding leidt al vroeg tot onrust en een verslaving aan seks en spanning. Op Gran Canaria ontdekt hij hoe lucratief de handel in xtc kan zijn. Hij leeft tussen luxe hotels en logeerbanken, voelt zich onaantastbaar in het nachtleven en vliegt geregeld op en neer naar Amsterdam voor een nieuwe voorraad drugs. In 1997 wordt hij voor het eerst gepakt voor drugshandel. Maar vier jaar cel in Spanje weerhoudt hem er niet van door te gaan. Twee jaar na zijn vrijlating vindt de politie 13.000 xtc-pillen en 11 kilo speed in zijn keukenkastjes. Weer volgt een jarenlange gevangenisstraf.

Politica Barbara Kathmann (Groen Links – PVDA) stelt zich opnieuw kandidaat om in Den Haag te blijven knokken voor digitale zaken. Bert Hubert, tech-ondernemer, oud-medewerker van de AIVD en lid van de Autoriteit Online Terroristisch en Kinderpornografisch Materiaal, maakt zich zorgen over het verdwijnen van digitale expertise in de Kamer. Met initiatieven als NerdVote.nl probeert hij kiezers te mobiliseren om digitaal vaardige kandidaten te steunen. Barbara vertelt hoe haar ervaringen als wethouder in Rotterdam haar digitaal wakker hebben geschud. Sindsdien strijdt ze voor grip op algoritmes, transparantie in IT-aanbestedingen en een overheid die snapt wat ze digitaal in huis heeft. Bert legt uit waarom veel digitale expertise uit de Kamer dreigt te verdwijnen, hoe stemprocedures daar een rol in spelen en waarom NerdVote.nl nodig is. Er wordt gefileerd, gelachen en gefrustreerd geconstateerd dat digitale zaken nog altijd geen prioriteit hebben.

Europe led growth, North America hit a record as buyers rushed to secure tax credits, and China saw robust, if moderating, expansion, while BYD cut its sales target but expects significant overseas volume. FORD'S FOCUS-SIZED RECOVERY PLAN Ford will launch a new mid-sized crossover in 2027, built in Valencia, Spain, reflecting a shift toward affordable EVs following Fiesta and Focus factory closures. The model will compete directly with the likes of Tiguan and Sportage at a mid-£30,000 price point—aiming to recover relevance with lower emissions and competitive pricing without expecting past market share highs. EUROPEAN AUTOMAKERS SEEK 2035 FLEXIBILITY European automotive leaders are calling for flexibility in the EU's 2035 ban on petrol and diesel cars, citing tougher global supply chains and increased reliance on Chinese battery suppliers. Automakers advocate for hybrids and transitional support beyond 2035, while member states like Italy and France push for exceptions, highlighting the division over the full fossil fuel phase-out deadline. TOYOTA BUILDS EV SUVS IN KENTUCKY Toyota will begin producing its first electric vehicles in the U.S. next year, including two three-row SUVs at its Georgetown, Kentucky site, part of a $1.3 billion investment focused on domestic EV growth. The move aims to serve rising American demand, add jobs, and advance Toyota toward carbon neutrality by 2050, while balancing hybrids, plug-ins, and full EVs. STELLANTIS CANCELS ELECTRIC RAM 1500 REV Ram has scrapped its planned all-electric 1500 REV pickup in favor of a plug-in hybrid model, citing weak demand for battery-only trucks and financial constraints at Stellantis. The new Ram REV, featuring a gasoline generator with over 690 miles of range, appeals to users needing greater towing and long-distance capability, while Stellantis refocuses on hybrids and profitable platforms. NISSAN MICRA LIVE EVENT SHOWCASES NEW SUPERMINI EV Nissan unveiled its fully electric sixth-generation MICRA in Rotterdam, built on the dedicated AmpR platform, offering two battery sizes, 198–260 miles WLTP range, and advanced handling and tech features. Starting at £21,495 in the UK with government support, deliveries begin January 2026 as MICRA leads Nissan's European EV lineup expansion. GM REAFFIRMS EV-ONLY FUTURE, SLOWS TRANSITION GM CEO Mary Barra reaffirmed the company's long-term goal of going all-electric by 2035, positioning it as a strategic "North Star". However, she acknowledged that the full transition may take decades due to industry complexity and evolving market and regulatory challenges. AMAZON TESTS GM BRIGHTDROP DELIVERY VANS Amazon has started testing GM's BrightDrop electric vans alongside its existing Rivian fleet, part of its strategy to deploy 100,000 electric delivery vehicles by 2030. The pilot comes as GM faces production slowdowns, offering a chance to boost BrightDrop's visibility and demand while Amazon diversifies its supplier base. VOLVO CEO EXPECTS OTHER BRANDS TO FAIL Volvo recently rehired former CEO Håkan Samuelsson, who affirmed the inevitability of electrification and predicted only a few Chinese brands will dominate globally in the next decade. He expects legacy automakers will struggle, with survival dependent on agility and partnership with advanced firms like Geely, as newcomers like Tesla and BYD reshape the market. CHINA AUTO INDUSTRY THREAT TO GLOBAL MARKET Industry experts at the Detroit Automotive News Congress warned that U.S. automakers are underestimating the competitive threat posed by Chinese brands, whose EV market share in China surged to 50%. Fierce home competition is fueling aggressive export plans, targeting Europe, Mexico, and North America, with cost and technology advantages challenging established automakers. HYUNDAI-LG GEORGIA BATTERY PLANT STARTUP DELAY Hyundai and LG's Georgia battery plant faces a two- to three-month startup delay after a major U.S. immigration raid detained hundreds of workers, most employed by LG suppliers. Hyundai will offset production impact by sourcing batteries from other facilities while both governments negotiate skilled labor solutions for future projects. SCOUT CEO ARGUES FOR DIRECT SALES STRATEGY Scout Motors CEO Scott Keogh stated the company will pursue direct sales, comparing traditional dealer model unfavorably to buying directly from Apple and advocating for a seamless brand experience. He dismissed dealers as a distraction, reinforcing direct-to-consumer as the company's strategic retail approach. MAINE DISTRICTS FACE ELECTRIC SCHOOL BUS SERVICE ISSUES Maine school districts have seen electric buses sidelined due to unresolved service issues, with manufacturer Lion Electric's bankruptcy halting repairs and parts, leaving districts stuck with non-functional vehicles under federal grant terms. The state faces mounting frustration, a federal lawsuit against Lion, and reliance on emergency replacement options while the EPA oversees the troubled program.

Half of boundary-pushing production outfit Voices From The Lake and co-founder of Spazio Disponibile, Neel is an Italian producer with a keen ear for complex, enveloping sonics; his ample, elegant pieces of music sitting right at the junction of beatless abstraction and intricate webs of electronic pulsations. Boasting his works' most dynamic side, Neel's debut transmission on RYC ushers us into a smouldering pit of molten steel and glassy membranes. Playing with echoes and latency as he builds his own multi-sensory experience out of eclectic fragments, Neel transports us to a zone where movement and inertia rule in concerted harmony, and your suddenly weightless body feels eventually free from today's iteratively chaotic burden. Uplifting. 

Afgelopen weekend congresseerden maar liefst zes partijen. Ze staan in slagorde en zetten de kern van hun boodschap, hun strategie en tactische manoeuvres klaar voor hun offensief, voor hun defensieve flanken en de weg naar electorale triomf. Alle reden voor Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger om in kaart te brengen wat opviel, wat miste, wat verraste en wie zich mochten profileren. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

Toch heeft Geert Wilders het allerminst eenvoudig. Zijn triomf van 2023 en de regeerflop daarna heeft hem opnieuw een cordon sanitaire opgeleverd. En hem beroofd van thema's. Wilders zet alle ballen op asiel. Dat thema dient als codewoord voor alles wat hij haat: Islam, moslims, de Koran en 'woke'. De sociale Geert is verdwenen, net als al die PVV-bewindslieden die de boodschappen en de zorg goedkoop zouden maken. Ook wil hij best met iedereen samenwerken als hij maar premier wordt en 'de asielagenda' onverkort uitgevoerd. Het gaat dus maar om één ding: wraak op een verdampte vijand, Omtzigt. Daarvoor is hij zelfs bereid zijn gevaarlijkste opponenten op het schild te hijsen: Frans Timmermans en Henri Bontenbal. Het NSC De partij is Pieter Omtzigt voorbij, maar wil een brug blijven, onderstreepte lijsttrekker Eddy van Hijum. De vraag blijft: tussen welke oevers. In november 2023 wás NSC zo’n brug, die Dilan Yesilgöz en Caroline van der Plas toen wel wilden bewandelen. Nu NSC de PVV in de ban doet, ziet Jaap eerder een draaibrug voor zich. Het CDA Ruud Lubbers' Rotterdam paste als locatie wel bij de boodschap van Henri Bontenbal. Niet de somberheid van Sybrand Buma of de consultant-uitstraling van Wopke Hoekstra, maar Lubbers' eenheid van 'de drie p's' - partij, program en persoon - vielen op. Vier grote namen zweefden boven de zaal, de speeches en discussies. Angela Merkel met haar nadruk op de 'Besonnenheit' van 'die Mitte', Konrad Adenauer met zijn waarschuwing 'Keine Experimente', Lubbers met het nuchtere, aanpakkerige en Europese en Dries van Agt met “Wij buigen niet naar links en wij buigen niet naar rechts.” De VVD Het liberale dilemma is lastig. De partij van Ruttes stabiel bestuur vertoont labiliteit sinds in 2023 de deur werd opengezet naar de PVV. Haar bondgenoten heeft de VVD van zich vervreemd, op het niet-liberale BBB na. Dilan Yesilgöz verdedigde haar koers opmerkelijk: om rechtse resultaten te boeken had zij welbewust die Schoof-coalitie gesloten. En daarom wilde ze nu opnieuw 'centrumrechts', zij het nu dan met CDA, D66 en JA21 erbij. De VVD doet hiermee nu denken aan de periode-Nijpels die in 1986 moest hopen dat het CDA groot genoeg werd om zelf nog een kans te hebben. De zelfbewuste VVD van Frits Bolkestein die Paars mogelijk maakte lijkt geheel vergeten. En de pogingen van Mark Rutte om met GroenLinks te gaan regeren eveneens. Andere congressen - JA21, ChristenUnie, Partij voor de Dieren - waren ook boeiend en er komen er nog een aantal aan. De knallende schoten voor de boeg zijn nog maar het begin. *** Verder luisteren 524 - Met een wrakhoutkabinet naar de verkiezingen https://vriendvandeshow.nl/bb/episodes/524-met-een-wrakhoutkabinet-naar-de-verkiezingen 521 - Hoe saaier de politiek, hoe gelukkiger het land https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/521-hoe-saaier-de-politiek-hoe-gelukkiger-het-land 517 - Na de champagne de campagne https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/517-na-de-champagne-de-campagne 514 – De andere waarheid na Schoof https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/ad370858-1ae4-447b-8d4b-1bcf7bc33ac2 509 - Het verdriet van Geert Milders https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/509-het-verdriet-van-geert-milders 491 - De voortdurende twijfels van Nieuw Sociaal Contract https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/83010cd4-3e7d-474d-a4aa-502aa73c94ea 474 – Parlementair historicus Joop van den Berg: “De democratie is in groot gevaar.

Vanaf 20 september gaat ons Koninkrijksteam op jacht naar de 25ste Europese honkbaltitel. Dat mag het gaan doen in eigen land, want Rotterdam is het hele toernooi gastheer van Team Kingdom of The Netherlands. Voor Curaçao Neptunus pitcher Tom de Blok wordt het een thuistoernooi. Momenteel is hij met zijn ploeg nog volop in de strijd om de landstitel tijdens de Lucky Day Holland Series tegen HCAW, maar wat verwacht de beste pitcher van dit seizoen van het EK? Hoe is het om te mogen strijden om de Europese titel vanaf de heuvel waarvan hij elke zandkorrel kent? We spraken er met hem over. Presentatie: Robert Denneman Foto: KNBSB/Louie Jay Sienders

We all know that hardcore will never die – but do we really know what hardcore is? As a music journalist for 15 years and raver for much longer, Holly Dicker is no stranger to documenting dance music's heaviest, gnarliest and speediest niches – but in Dance or Die: A History of Hardcore, she attempts to finally answer that big question.From the pioneering hardware assault developed in Frankfurt and Berlin, to London's grubbiest squat raves, Dutch intercity gabber rivalries and Scotland's ‘tartan techno' explosion, Dance or Die is a historical map of hardcore in its many forms.Holly dials in from – where else? – Rotterdam to talk us through the crucial rave tales collected in her book, as well as revealing her personal history with hardcore and offering her thoughts on where the scene went wrong post-Covid.Feeling like a hardcore Taganista?

Wat te doen met de hypotheekrenteaftrek? Sinds het CDA pleitte voor afbouw, barstte het debat los. Maar volgens Matthijs Koorevaar gaat het meer om politiek theater dan om echte oplossingen voor de wooncrisis.Hij wijst op drie vergeten inzichten. Starters profiteren het meest van de regeling, ook verhuurders hebben recht op aftrek, en het eigenwoningforfait - ooit de reden dat de aftrek werd ingevoerd - is vrijwel uitgehold. Zijn conclusie: herstel en verhoog het eigenwoningforfait, in plaats van de renteaftrek te schrappen. Dat helpt starters meer en sluit beter aan bij de oorspronkelijke bedoeling. Matthijs Korevaar werkt als universitair docent Finance aan Erasmus School of Economics in Rotterdam. Hij publiceert regelmatig over de woningmarkt.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ralf zit deze week in Orlando, maar Jorn en Michiel staan paraat om je bij te praten over de nieuwtjes van deze week. Aladdin komt Live in Concert naar Rotterdam (én Antwerpen!), YouTube trakteert op een heerlijk nerdy kasteel-aflevering van We Call It Imagineering—met zelfs onze eigen Michel den Dulk in beeld. We duiken in de hergeboorte van Walt’s Griffith Park-carousel en bespreken waarom een dagje Walt Disney World steeds meer “VIP-prijskaartje” heeft. Verder: Toy Story keert terug in de bios tijdens de Bioscoop Tiendaagse en Only Murders in the Building S5 krijgt een officiële companion-podcast. In Parijs wordt Halloween extra spooky met de Unlucky Nugget (Phantom Manor-lore!), terwijl kerst weer alles uit de kast trekt—van tree lighting tot chalets. Ook beantwoorden we jullie vragen over (te) late character-alerts, allergieën in restaurants, Village Nature-pendels, én wagen een beredeneerde gok richting de World of Frozen-opening… met een tikkeltje hoop voor soft openings in maart.

Als je Manfred Weber vraagt "Spreken wij nu met de machtigste politicus in Europa?" glimlacht hij minzaam en zegt: "Het gaat niet zozeer om 'macht', het zijn wel grote verantwoordelijkheden bij elkaar." Zoals écht machtige mensen dat doen. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger praten met de Beierse voorzitter van zowel de grootste fractie als de grootste partijfamilie in de EU, de Europese Volkspartij. In die familie verenigen zich christendemocratische en sociaal-conservatieve partijen uit alle lidstaten van de EU, van de Duitse CDU en de Spaanse Partido Popular tot het CDA in Nederland. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend een mailtje en wij zoeken contact. *** Weber komt met concrete voorstellen voor een krachtige voortgang van de integratie van de EU en zijn bondgenoten. De top in Alaska en de tarievenoorlog van Donald Trump hebben hem meer dan ooit overtuigd dat Europa op niets of niemand meer kan rekenen. "Europa is teruggeworpen op zichzelf. We staan alleen.” Trump gebruikt de militaire en geopolitieke zwakte van de EU en haar lidstaten om hen economisch te onderwerpen en achter hun rug met Vladimir Poetin te dealen ten koste van Oekraïne. Daarbij acht hij de belangen van zijn 'tech bros' van grotere betekenis dan die van de NAVO- en EU-lidstaten die al decennia trouwe bondgenoten zijn. Weber zegt het ronduit: "Wij zijn te lang zwak geweest en hadden onze veiligheid uitbesteed aan de Amerikanen. Daar betalen we nu een hoge prijs voor." Hij wijst erop dat JD Vance en Elon Musk openlijk koketteren met anti-Europese partijen als de AfD. "Die juichen 'America First!'. Ze heulen met Poetin. Marine le Pen is door hem gefinancierd!" Tegenover deze krachten staat de EVP pal, benadrukt hij. Niet alleen het CDA tegenover de PVV en CDU-CSU tegenover de AfD, maar ook Peter Magyars Tisza versus Viktor Orbán, Donald Tusk tegenover PiS en de Tsjechische partij tegen Poetin-populist Andrej Babiš. Ursula von der Leyen moet daarom ‘Europa, ontwaak!’ roepen in de Staat van de Europese Unie, haar grote toespraak vandaag in Straatsburg. De lidstaten moeten veel nauwer samenwerken. Het Rapport-Draghi? "Honderd procent! Een Interne markt voor energie, voor digitale industrie, voor diensten, kapitaalmarkten. Mario Draghi voltooit wat Jacques Delors begon." Ook een wereld-vrijhandelsorganisatie van de EU met gelijkgezinde landen en regio's tegenover Amerika en China zet hij op de agenda. Dertien van de 27 EU-premiers zijn van de EVP en de meerderheid van de Commissie. Dit machtige blok wil hij nog verder versterken door radicaalrechts te versplinteren. In de conservatieve ECR-fractie wil hij Giorgia Meloni's Fratelli en de Vlaamse N-VA van Bart de Wever laten breken met hun extreme partners zoals die uit Spanje en Polen. Verdeel en heers. Europa moet zijn eigen boontjes doppen, meent Weber. De Frans-Duitse as functioneert weer dankzij Emmanuel Macron en Friedrich Merz. De Britten komen weer langszij. En Nederland kan, ja móet volop mee doen. De marginalisatie in de Schoof-fase vond Weber ergerlijk, want "Nederland is een middelgrote lidstaat met krachtige hightech, logistiek, de haven in Rotterdam, een sterke landbouw. Zo'n land moet mee doen en voorop lopen." Vincent van Peteghem (vanaf minuut 28) De Belgische vicepremier Vincent van Peteghem is de minister die over de begroting gaat en een van de toonaangevende gezichten van de Europese christendemocratie. Keken we in ons land vaak meewarig naar de langdurige crises en formaties bij de Zuiderburen, intussen vragen we ons af hoe zij naar onze perikelen kijken. Met een grijnslach ontkent Van Peteghem enig leedvermaak over Den Haag te hebben gehad. Veeleer vond hij de politieke absentie van Nederland in Europa verontrustend. "Je merkte toch dat deze ministers daar met een andere agenda zaten." De weigering met het Vlaams Belang in zee te gaan is voor zijn CD&V - zusterpartij van het CDA - principieel. De nieuwe, brede midden coalitie in Brussel is instructief voor de Haagse politiek. Men slaagde er bijvoorbeeld in rond 'Gaza' een breed gedragen lijn te vinden. "Wij verkeren in de mentale luxe dat wij ons niets hoeven aan te trekken van de agenda van het Vlaams Belang. Dat maakt hen meteen irrelevant." Van Peteghem is in deze regering een van de meest ambitieuze beleidshervormers. Vol vuur zet hij uiteen hoe een hervorming van arbeidsmarkt en sociale zekerheid ineengrijpt met een vergaand pensioenakkoord en fiscale hervorming. Lasten weg van arbeid naar consumptie en vervuiling. Met zijn 'staatsbons' onthutste hij de banken en de financiële markten. Met het enorme succes ervan bij miljoenen spaarders heeft hij naam gemaakt. Bijna achteloos vertelt hij hoe de Belgen het stikstofprobleem hebben. Ook hier kan Nederland van leren. Van Peteghems advies aan zijn Europese partijgenoot Henri Bontenbal is scherp: 'Hou vast aan je koers die vóór alles de lange termijn voorop zet.' En Manfred Webers strategie om radicaalrechts te splijten en conservatieven naar de EVP te lokken? Dat lijkt hem prima. Maar de N-VA hoort niet in de EVP, waarschuwt hij toch even. "Dat is een separatistische partij die Vlaanderen onafhankelijk wil maken en ook geen christendemocratische ondergrond heeft.” *** Verder luisteren Bij Manfred Weber 256 - Weber: 'Nu serieus werk maken van Europese defensiesamenwerking' https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/28bd6509-1c65-4bcf-b55f-78d857980689 427 - Europa wordt een grootmacht en daar moeten we het over hebben https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/84273d61-0203-4764-b876-79a25695bed1 497 – De krankzinnige tarievenoorlog van Donald Trump https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/6726d535-1e03-4b41-92d0-98b29876db9d 496 - De paradoxen van Giorgia Meloni https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/496-de-paradoxen-van-giorgia-meloni 490 – Duitslands grote draai.

Responsible for a handful exquisite platters on the likes of Dial Records, LARJ, Figures' sub-division LF RMX and his own imprint, Intergalactic Research Institute for Sound, Georgia-born, Berlin-based sound explorer Irakli lands his new transmission for RYC: a mix giving full vent to his ever innovative and shape-shifting approach to floor narratives. Always going the unsuspected route with no compass to guide us back onto the normative boulevard, Irakli takes us on a bumpy ride across jagged proto-technoid topographies, fractal-like foldings and mind-expanding new horizons of musical possibilities. The result is - as per the man's high-flying standards, an ode to techno's core values of innovation and fearlessness, developing the kind of pioneering mindset we miss so much these days. Electrifying.

Torenhoog was het ziekteverzuim in Nederlands grootste detentiecentrum voor vreemdelingen. Tot een nieuwe, ambitieuze directeur daar een einde aan maakte. Maar voor die prestatie betaalden medewerkers vaak de prijs: ziek zijn kon niet en een bedrijfsarts bezoeken mocht soms ook niet.

Het Amerikaanse Ministerie van Justitie was er vorig jaar nog zó blij mee. Rechter Amit Mehta bestempelde Google tot monopolie. Maar alle maatregelen die het Ministerie voorstelde om daar wat aan te doen, kunnen weer de prullenbak in. Dat zegt dezelfde rechter Mehta. Het dochterbedrijf van Alphabet mag webbrowser Chrome houden en het mag Apple blijven betalen om zijn zoekmachine voorrang te geven in je iPhone. Toch komt Google niet helemaal met de schrik vrij. Het moet verplicht data over de zoekmachine delen met concurrenten, waaronder OpenAI, het bedrijf dat dit jaar al marktaandeel weg zat te snoepen van de monopolist op de markt. We bespreken of de rechter zo toch het monopolie geweld aan weet te doen. Verder praten we over iets onbegrijpelijks waar we het in beursprogramma's maar zelden over hebben: de obligatiemarkten. Beleggers dumpten wereldwijd staatsobligaties omdat ze er niet langer op vertrouwen dat de overheden van Japan, het VK, Duitsland, Frankrijk én de VS het huishoudboekje op orde hebben. En dan mogen we het cliché van stal halen, want gedumpte obligaties betekenen lagere obligatieprijzen en dus hogere effectieve rentes. Waarna overheden meer betalen om te lenen. Je hoort wat dat betekent voor beurzen wereldwijd. Het gaat over Aegon, dat steeds Amerikaanser wordt. De financiële reus en verzekeraar kreeg aandelen van ASR in ruil voor het verkopen van zijn Nederlandse activiteiten, maar doet nu ook die aandelen van ASR van de hand. ASR staat op zijn beurt klaar om die weer in te kopen. En we vertellen je over een volgend bedrijf dat in Amsterdam naar de beurs wil. Een kleine déjà vu van twee weken geleden, want het gaat alweer om een Bitcoin Treasury. Dat wil met geld van aandeelhouders Bitcoin kopen. Deze keer is het wel een wat grotere partij, met steun van een nogal bekende tweeling in de financiële wereld. Laten we zeggen dat ze allebei geen Facebook-profiel hebben...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Boss of Madrid's seminal imprint Semantica, Spanish DJ and producer Svreca steps in the series with a monster two-hour jaunt into his multi-faceted techno headspace. As ever busy pushing the club sound's envelope with great loads of heavyweight kicks and trenchant snares, Svreca has us all kitted out for a breathtaking dive into gravityless territories and cragged moonscapes. Flush with hair-raising momenti, unsuspected plot twists and climactic rollercoasting, his mix shifts the focus constantly betwixt textural magnification and rhythm-enslaved abandon, having you wading into the instant's XTC to most mesmeric effect. A rough, Indus-minded masterclass from one of the finest to ever do it. Rampage mode on. 

In this episode of Fingal's Cave, host Ian Priston talks with Steve Anderson - creator of the iconic Floydboots website, visited over a million times by collectors, and author of the 2024 book Wizardo: Stories of a Bootlegger.Steve reflects on five decades of Pink Floyd: from being a 12-year-old at Wembley Empire Pool in November 1974 and the heartbreak of his prized Stoke bootleg being broken - to the challenge of hunting down and thrill of listening to rare titles. He recalls leaving home at 3am from Knebworth 1975, the ferocity and spectacle of the Animals tour, the monumental experience of The Wall shows, and meeting the band at the premiere of The Wall film.Steve also shares two extraordinary encounters with Syd Barrett in the 1990s - fleeting but unforgettable glimpses of the band's elusive founding genius. Along the way, he discusses Barrett superfan the late Bernard White, the legacy of John Wizardo, his adventures as a record dealer, and the time he was offered Roger Waters' Live at Pompeii bass. It is a fascinating story of how a lifetime can be shaped by music, soundtracked by Pink Floyd. This episode is in stereo - because, well, it just had to be. And if you think you hear a fly buzzing, dogs wanting attention, or even church bells chiming in the distance… you are not imagining things. Consider them accidental Pink Floyd–style sound effects.Subscribe to Fingal's Cave for more journeys to the edges of Pink Floyd music history.

Where in the world am I? In San Diego today. Trip Summary 2   Hi there. I'm Dr. Mary Travelbest, recently on a 90-day journey around the world, excited to connect with fellow travelers and share our experiences.   Listener Story Spotlight    Today's listener story is about 79 year old Sandi Biback who I met in Toronto and helped organize an afternoon with women from the JourneyWoman organization. She was called in to help and rose to the occasion. She is traveling to Bhutan in October and has shared several tips with me for purchasing Travel insurance. She's seasoned in Travel experiences and business conferences. She has been an active traveler for many decades. I tip my head to you, Sandi, and thank you for helping out in Toronto. Quick-fire FAQ: The FAQ for today is: about Single Supplements. These are extra fees that are essentially doubled when part of a package group tour. Refer to the notes for further information on this topic. When do I want to pay for them or not? Look at this link.    There may be times you will pay for this, but the practice is getting attention with cruise ship business, and the more successful ones are eliminating the fees or reducing them dramatically. I had to pay for a whole room on my cruise from Helsinki to Stockholm for one night. It was a tiny room on one of the lower levels, with no window. I'll address this issue again in future episodes, but I'd like to hear from you on the topic, too.   60-second confidence challenge   Find a world map, whether it is a flat map, a round map, or an atlas. Get one and explore the map as if you lived in the world. You do. I challenge you to know your geography a little better than you did yesterday. If you like today's Confidence Challenge, Chapter 3 of my book dives deeper—link in description.”   See Book A for addressing all of these items. Find it on our website at https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com/ or on Amazon. It's a several-part series.   Destination Deep‑Dive Today's special destination is:  A summary of my 90-day trip. Part Two  I ended Part One of this summary with my visit to South Africa, specifically Johannesburg. Let's move forward now on the second half. I flew on the shortest day of the year in the southern hemisphere, June 21, to the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere on June 22, when I landed in Athens, Greece, flying through and stopping off in Qatar overnight. Qatar's airport was immense.e I was shocked at how large it was. It was actually like a little city and quite the Commerce capital of the world from my perspective. You could stay there for weeks without going outside if you wanted to. There was just so much going on at any time of the day. I tried to access the airport lounge as I had a very long layover. Still, they insisted I couldn't check in until three hours before my flight or something like that, so I had to shop and come back. When I did go to the airport lounge, it was delightful, even at two in the morning. My credit card for this trip allowed me to use the Priority Pass lounges and even bring a guest, so I took advantage of that benefit and passed it on to others who became friends along the way. Now back to Greece. I didn't have a clear plan for what I was going to do in Athens. I stayed at a hostel located in a not-so-great area of the city. It was on the fringe, and by that I mean the only stores nearby were small markets that primarily sold take-out groceries. No other stores, such as dry cleaners or dog grooming shops, were in the neighborhood. The residents here were mainly short-termers, not people planning to stay for very long, hence markets that sold convenience goods. However, they were not called 7-11's or chain stores, and inside, they had a small selection because the stores were small for the most part. There were many intersecting streets, and not all of them had well-marked names. I also had some struggles with Google Maps on this trip, but I enjoyed the visit nonetheless. I went to an island called Hydra. The locals called Ira, and then I also went and visited an island called Paris. I stayed overnight on the island and had a pleasant visit, spending time swimming in the ocean, hiking along the shore, and exploring its natural beauty.  The next day, when I returned to Athens, I checked back into the hostel, more for convenience and budget, and stayed one more night. I did feel a bit more secure. I remember it being so hot that even several stores and shops had closed. I took a taxi to the Acropolis Museum and enjoyed the air conditioning inside before heading back to my Hostel. The next day, I took a train to Thessaloniki, a five-hour ride, and stayed there for two nights to explore the outskirts of other cities beyond Athens. I returned to Athens a few days later and visited the Acropolis, the architectural museum, as well as several other local places of interest. I flew to Krakow, Poland, and then to Warsaw, Poland. I then returned to Dansk for another night. These cities hold significant historical importance for World War II. However, when I arrived at Dansk, I saw the World War II museum and realized that it had many artifacts well displayed for the public. If you're in Dansk, Poland I recommend this museum. Some of the things I did in Dansk, such as getting a haircut and having a massage, were important for self-care. After, I flew to Finland and then took a ferry to Estonia for a few days. Then I went back to Helsinki and stayed some time there before going to Stockholm, Sweden, and then going to Oslo and then to Bergen, Norway for a few days, I went back to Oslo and then went to Copenhagen for a few days and then I went to our house denmark, and then back to Copenhagen before going to the Netherlands. I had a friend in the Netherlands. I visited Melvin, who lived in Amsterdam, but I also visited Haarlem, Rotterdam, and Harlem while I was there. Afterwards, I flew to Edinburgh, Scotland, and took a train to North Berwick, where I spent a wonderful day exploring, swimming, and getting to know the town. I left Edinburgh for Halifax, Nova Scotia, on July 27 and spent the next two weeks in Canada. I enjoyed the Eastern Canadian hospitality, the Celtic culture, and the nature I saw throughout the 1,500 kilometers I drove. I finished my week in Toronto, exploring Niagara Falls, the city, and its suburbs, and swam three times during my stay. It was hot before I came home to San Diego.   Smart Move and Slip-up pairings    My slip-up in Edinburgh was dropping my iPad on my tiny toe at 5 AM in the dark. I was hurt, but I didn't know how badly it had broken. Four other people were sleeping in my hostel room at the time. I was getting ready to leave for the airport when this happened. Still, three weeks later, my toe is sensitive, but I think it will be okay. My lesson for you is this: when you're packing your bags, turn the light on so you can see what won't fall on your foot.   60-second confidence challenge    Here's my challenge for you.   My travel challenge for you is to get to know your apps on your phone. Download at least three travel apps, including Google Maps, Rome2Rio, and consider moving it. You might have some other good apps that you would recommend, so please let me know what they are. You need these to help you navigate your way in a new city or a new country. Always download your city's Google map so that you have it if you're not in a Wi-Fi area. Download it in advance.   Resources Roundup    One of my favorite apps is called Currency. I can look at the currency of my current location and compare it to another currency, such as the US dollar or the currency of a destination I may be traveling to. This Currency App is a valuable resource that does not require Wi-Fi to use.   Take away mantra and goodbye.    Today's takeaway is about not trying to see everything on your first visit; save something for later. Be kind to yourself and don't try to overextend; just do what you can.   Thanks for listening. Be encouraged to travel with confidence.

A gifted, sure-handed groove manipulator, Alienata has been carving out a niche for herself as one of the scene's most reliable DJs in both actual floor impact and mixing skillset. Also curating the ever consistent Discos Atónicos, which she founded in 2017, she keeps on delivering sets that combine a wide array of styles, from dark disco to acid, through D-town electro, industrial and IDM outbursts with equal poise and gusto, time and again. Expert in chiselled transitions and pristine track selections, the Spanish born DJ builds her mixes like one creates mosaics, building a cohesive whole out of disparate rhythmic elements and tempi, while she snaps ankles and flips brains by the dozen along the way. Yet another faultless mix from a DJ whose palette and perspective here surface in all their abrasive, unadulterated glory. Jet propulsion activated. 

Send us a textIn deze aflevering van Soul Session ontmoet psycholoog Huibrecht Boluijt hoogleraar Gedrag en Prestatiemanagement aan de Erasmus Universiteit te Rotterdam, Michaéla Schippers.In dit zeer openhartige gesprek praat zij over haar levenspad vanaf haar kinderjaren tot nu.Ook als verklaring waarom ze, als het erop aankomt, tegen opgelegde structuren in, blijft staan voor haar eigenwaarde.Ze vertelt over hoe ze als kind leerde overleven in een destructieve gezinssituatie met een narcistische vader en een emotioneel afwezige moeder.Over het gevaar dat latere relaties in de liefde, maar ook ouder-kindrelaties, stuk kunnen lopen door een traumareflex als men blijft steken in slachtofferschap en niet het onzichtbare gevaar heeft kunnen ontlopen om zelf dader te worden en dus blijft wijzen naar de ander en kil en overtuigd van zichzelf leeft in een eigen vervormde wereld die steeds kleiner wordt. Tragisch genoeg onbewust. Feedback daarop verdraagt men niet. Voor partner of kind rest slechts volgzaamheid. Voelen dat iemand van ze houdt lukt niet. Angst voor krenking domineert. Het antwoord daarop is domineren, krenken. Continu. Onbewust.Ze trekt daarbij parallellen naar de samenleving die dezelfde valkuilen en opgaven kent als het gaat om helen en het vinden van vrede met elkaar.Een must-see voor mensen die trauma kennen of die zelf hebben te dealen met narcistische trekken. De dapperen die de zelfconfrontatie aan willen gaan omdat ze iets opvalt in hun relationele leven. En voor hen die de huidige samenleving beter willen begrijpen.Support the showWaardeer je deze video('s)?

The suspect went the wrong way around the traffic circle continuing at high rates of speed through the town towards Rotterdam. The suspect then made their way onto I-90 from the traffic circle near Dunkin-Donuts. Suspect has a BOLO out for the car no further updates regarding this unique but dangerous high-speed pursuit. Units did end up terminating the pursuit most likely due to the dangerous speeds along with GPDs pursuit policies.

An Icelandic Cruise Episode 63: Show Notes In mild protest against our usual summer holiday trend, Tom decided to go on a big trip, and today, we unpack everything he experienced on his Icelandic cruise aboard the Holland America Rotterdam. We begin with Tom's transatlantic flight in economy (the horror!) before learning about local transport options when traveling from Amsterdam to Rotterdam. Tom goes on to deliver an overview of the Holland America cruise line as we hear about the on-board food quality, housekeeping and safety protocols, how they live entertainment measures up against Royal Caribbean's benchmark, and everything you need to know about the Holland America casino. We also unpack multiple chance encounters Tom had with familiar faces, as well as his highlights from the ports and tourist attractions he visited. To end, Tom details his journey home on a low-cost carrier airline, and Trevor offers a sneak peek into his upcoming cruise on one of the Mediterranean's largest vessels.       Key Points From This Episode: [00:00] How Tom's summer trip began with a transatlantic flight in economy to Amsterdam.    [06:43] Getting to port: How he traveled from Amsterdam to Rotterdam.    [15:16] An overview of the Holland America Rotterdam.   [16:18] Food quality on board, how the main dining room works, and housekeeping protocols.  [20:18] How the live entertainment measures up against the Royal Caribbean benchmark.   [23:01] Chance encounters with familiar faces, sharing points and rewards, and gift cards.  [29:21] Highlights of the Holland America casino. [33:48] The ports and attractions Tom visited, starting with Norway and ending in Iceland.   [45:08] Departing from Keflavík International Airport on a low-cost carrier.  [48:40] Tom's final thoughts on Holland America, and a peek at Trevor's upcoming cruise.  Quotes: “For a six-hour flight across the Atlantic, the economy experience was not bad at all. It was very reasonable and pretty comfortable. Lately, all my transatlantic flights have been economy, one stop over the Atlantic, and they've been working out so far.” — @TktweetsKim [05:18] “The quality of food was very high, and we only did complimentary food; we didn't go to any specialty restaurants.” — @TktweetsKim [16:48] “One of the things that always separates a cruise experience from almost any other vacation experience [is] the ability to have a meal at the same time, with the same waiter, [and] at the same table. You get this feeling like you're a local by the second or third day.” — @tmount [17:51] “The live music was good, and if you're a music lover, you'll probably find something to enjoy. [However], if you're looking for an ice show or acrobatics or a Broadway musical, I don't think you're going to find it on Holland America.” — @TktweetsKim [21:58] “I'm so glad I didn't have to buy too much in Iceland because everything is expensive there.” — @TktweetsKim [42:21] Links Mentioned in Today's Episode: Holland America Rotterdam KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Winmatch365 Chase Sapphire Airport Lounges Hyatt Place Amsterdam Airport JetBlue Hurdy Gurdy Travel Podcast Princess Cruises Norwegian Fjords Cruises Celebrity Cruises Carnival Cruise Line Royal Caribbean Cruises Episode 33: Cruise Loyalty with Traveling Well for Less' Debra Schroeder Port of Rotterdam Ålesund City & Surroundings Akureyri, Iceland | Arctic Wonders on a European Cruise Mývatn Nature Baths Goðafoss Waterfall Ísafjörður, Iceland | Wild Westfjords on an Iceland Cruise Keflavík International Airport Icelandair WOW Air The Ritz-Carlton Thomas Kim on X Trevor Mountcastle on X The Milenomics Podcast Network

#502 Meet Coach Lauren Brown   Welcome Welcome to Episode #502 of the 303 Endurance Podcast. We're your hosts Coaches Rich Soares and April Spilde. Thanks for joining us for another week of news, coaching tips and discussion.   We are back after being away at USAT Nationals in Milwaukee and TriDot Pool School in Tempe, Arizona.   April, how was it coaching swimming on the Sun?   Rich, I might as well be walking on the sun, LOL! I remember I texted you and Coach La that I was living in Satan's butthole the past couple of days. I thought I was going to melt a couple of times. But seriously, even though it was hellfire hot, I had an incredible time and I can't wait to unpack that later in the show.   Show Sponsor: UCAN UCAN created LIVSTEADY as an alternative to sugar based nutrition products.

We had an improvement rate 15% across the board. Coach Dennis Hetland and I had the privilege of running Lane 3 – Aim High! – and we say remarkable results in both dropping stroke counts and smashing the 100-yard benchmark.   I want to give a special shout-out to Coach Gene Deyoe who was in my lane. Coach Gene dropped two strokes from his 25-yard distance, and 11 seconds off his 100-yard time! He had such a great attitude and always appreciated the feedback we gave. He was a joy to coach.   Second, we had Jay Camp, Coach Chad Rolf's athlete, in our lane and he was a hoot to work with! I especially enjoyed his dry sense of humor–very much like Coach Chad. He was also very receptive to feedback and his results showed how much work he put into his Functional Freestyle. He reduced his stroke count by 4 for 25 yards which is massive! Think about all that energy he will save because of his efficiency in the water! Get this, he shaved 29 seconds off his 100-yard benchmark. I was blown away by his improvements. He winked at me and told me not to tell his coach, which I promptly did LOL! Can't wait to hear how his new zones treat him after that incredible improvement.   Finally, the last thing I'll share is that even though it was hotter than hell on deck, we had some of the best lifeguards. They would come around every 20 minutes or so with buckets of cold water with rags that we could put on our heads and necks. It kept me from being a heat casualty for sure as the temps reached 114 degrees. So again, thank you to the McClintock Pool Lifeguards for coming in clutch last weekend! You made our pool school a huge success!    USAT Nationals Update: Milwaukee transformed into the epicenter of multisport excellence as it hosted the 2025 USA Triathlon Sprint and Olympic Distance National Championships. Thousands of amateur athletes from across the country descended on the city to compete, connect, and celebrate the sport we love. Race Highlights The action kicked off Friday with an open water swim in Lake Michigan, open to all registrants. Saturday brought the Olympic Distance National Championships, featuring a 1,500m swim, 40k bike, and 10k run. Athletes raced through Milwaukee's scenic lakefront, crossing the iconic Daniel Hoan Memorial Bridge and finishing in Veterans Park [1]. Sunday was slated for the Sprint Distance Nationals and Paratriathlon Championships, but heavy overnight rain led to the cancellation of the sprint race for safety reasons [1]. Despite the disappointment, many athletes expressed gratitude for having raced earlier in the weekend. One athlete shared on Facebook: “Grateful I got to race yesterday. The stitches and bandaging got me through great. Heat, humidity, and wind were the factor yesterday, not the ankle wrap.” Yes, you heard that right—this athlete raced with stitches, tetanus, and antibiotics after a pre-race injury involving a bike and a hotel room. Talk about grit and determination! Celebration of Sport Gala & Hall of Fame Inductions Thursday night's Celebration of Sport Gala, hosted at Discovery World, was a moving tribute to the spirit of triathlon. The event honored the USA Triathlon Hall of Fame Class XIII, which included: Colleen Cannon – 1984 Nice World Champion and founder of Women's Quest. Graham Fraser – Race producer and visionary behind Ironman North America. Ellen Hart – 18-time World Age Group Champion and Ironman podium regular. Paul Martin – Paratriathlon legend and author who turned adversity into triumph. Kenny Souza – Duathlon pioneer and charismatic ambassador of the sport [2] [3]. Here's a breakdown of the 2025 USA Triathlon Hall of Fame inductees and their connections to Colorado: Colleen Cannon Lives in Boulder, Colorado. After retiring from professional racing, she founded Women's Quest, a Boulder-based adventure retreat company focused on empowering women through outdoor activities and wellness. She was inducted into the Boulder Sports Hall of Fame in 2017 [1]. Ellen Hart Lives in Niwot, Colorado, and previously served as First Lady of Denver during her marriage to former Denver Mayor Federico Peña. She is a longtime Colorado resident, Harvard graduate, and University of Colorado Law School alum. Hart has been a prominent figure in the Colorado endurance community and was inducted into the Colorado Running Hall of Fame [2].

After years of competing in the figure and bodybuilding world, she found her way into multisport through duathlon in 2018 and transitioned to triathlon in 2019. She now races across sprint, Olympic, and 70.3 distances, with 70.3 being her favorite. Lauren is passionate about working with athletes of all backgrounds and experience levels, helping them navigate real-life challenges—like time constraints, fitness level, or self-doubt—to discover what they're truly capable of. As the Grit2Greatness Ambassador Program Manager, Lauren will lead the charge in building a vibrant community of athletes who proudly represent G2G—at races, on social media, and in everyday moments that matter. She's here to empower you, connect you, and help each of you feel even more supported on this journey. Lauren, we are beyond excited to have you on board Questions for Lauren: Two Truths and a LIe Icebreaker: I danced on stage with Brittney Spears, I once got lost on a training ride and ended up in a different state; Before being an endurance athlete, I competed as a pro with the International Federation of Body Builders Where did you grow up and where do you call home? Tell us about your athlete journey? Tell us about your coach journey? Your vision for the G2G ambassador program? When I think about the Grit2Greatness Ambassador Program, I picture a true community—one that builds on the incredible foundation we've already created, but keeps growing in depth, reach, and connection. In our world, every athlete has a seat at the table. Whether you're brand new to the sport or you've been racing for decades, whether you prefer the excitement of a sprint or the challenge of an IRONMAN, you belong here. This is a space where every athlete is encouraged to step in, be seen, and thrive. My biggest hope for this year is to welcome a wave of new athletes into triathlon—people who may have been curious, but unsure if they'd fit in—and show them that this sport is for everyone. And beyond racing, I want this to be a place where we support each other's growth both inside and outside of sport. I'd love for us to lead more community events, take part in races together, and deepen relationships with race directors and the brands that make our sport stronger. My heart tells me this program is just at the beginning of its potential, and I truly cannot wait to see what we create together. Get Gritty Tip: 66-Day Challenge! Rich, as you know, I am a huge fan of the book, The ONE Thing, by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan and one of the favorite lessons I learned is about the power of breaking down habits into bite size pieces that you can consistently sustain over time. I've actually crafted several keystone habits over the past five years through using the tools from The ONE Thing.  For example, I built the habit of setting aside my gym clothes every night before work. We have our habit of reading the Daily Stoic as a morning ritual, and now we share our 3 wins and 3 things we are grateful for each day. These habits have been critical for helping me make each day purpose-driven and intentionally meaningful. So that brings me to the habit I am now currently working on. I decided at the beginning of the year that I wanted to complete 10 unassisted pull-ups by the end of 2025. I was going strong for the first 3 months and kind of fell off with the start of race season. Well, after doing my mid-year reset I realized I needed to get back on the proverbial horse, and what better way to do that than a 66-day pull-up challenge! So why 66 days? If you've read The ONE Thing then you'll remember in Chapter #6 the discussion around a study the University College of London did on how long it takes on average to create a habit–66 days. So my challenge, because I know how important it is to start small, is to complete 1 pull per day for 66 days. Now, I do as many as I can and right now, I'm on Day 10 and I'm up to 4 unassisted pull-ups. I also use a band and knock out as many as I can with the assist to help me continue to progress. I'm also hoping I can start adding in weighted pull-ups as we get further down the road. The other part of the challenge is to post the evidence on social media which 1) keeps me accountable, and 2) inspires others to join me! I found out today that Coach Will Nichols, @coachironwill on Instagram, bought his own pull-up bar and started his 66-day pull-up challenge!  So I want to throw the challenge out there to you, Rich, and to our audience! It doesn't have to be pull-ups, but what's one thing you can commit to doing for 66 days that helps you on your athletic journey! I want you to share with us and tag me @getgrittywithme on Instagram so I can cheer you on just like Coach Will!   TriDot Workout of the Week: Orientation Swim   Open Water Swim is the Workout of the Week I've chosen for a couple of reasons. One, it is so helpful to get in the body of water you will be racing in and get a feel for swim start, current, temperature, lighting, sun direction, weeds, swim exit, which goggles work best,  etc.    In Milwaukee this was key. They had the course setup and we were able to swim the buoys through the bridge and practice the swim exit as it would be on race day. It also gave us the opportunity  to get comfortable with the high likelihood of the race not being wetsuit legal.I chose to do the practice swim in just my TriDot swim jammers.   Here's a full list of benefits: Course Familiarization Swim the actual course (or as much as allowed) to understand sighting landmarks, turns, and exit points. Identify key buoys: Start buoy, turn buoys, and finish buoy. Practice sighting using fixed landmarks (buildings, trees, flags) beyond the buoys. Note water entry and exit terrain: Is it sandy, rocky, slippery, or grassy? Environmental Awareness Assess water conditions: Temperature, current, chop, visibility. Practice breathing on both sides if waves or sun glare may affect one side. Check for wind direction and how it may affect swim navigation. Gear Check Test your race-day gear: Goggles (anti-fog), wetsuit, swim cap. Practice wetsuit entry and exit to simulate transitions. Try different goggles if visibility or sun glare is an issue. Mental Preparation Visualize race morning: From lining up at the start to exiting the water. Practice your start strategy: Deep water start, beach start, or time trial start. Swim with others to simulate race-day contact and drafting. Technique & Strategy Practice sighting rhythm: Every 6–10 strokes is typical. Work on pacing: Start controlled, build into race effort. Try drafting behind or beside another swimmer if allowed. Safety & Logistics Locate lifeguards or safety personnel and understand emergency protocols. Note the location of medical tents or aid stations near swim exit. Time your swim to understand how long it takes at race pace.   Fun Segment: Triathlon Hot Takes Debate! So I happened upon this article in Triathlete Magazine titled “7 Spicy-Hot Debates Triathletes Can't Stop Arguing” and I thought this would be a perfectly juicy topic of discussion for this week's fun segment! Your assignment is to convincingly argue your case in 20 seconds or less. Time to bring the heat! Are you Team Bare or Team Hair: Do you shave your body hair for triathlon or go au naturel? Which is harder: Training for an Ironman or training for a marathon PR? Flying dismount or unclipping, foot down? White Tri Suits? Yay or Nay? Sprint or jog into the finisher chute? Post every workout on social media, or no? Which is more impressive? Ironman World Champion or Olympic Champion? Well there you have it. We laid our opinions on the line and now it's your turn! We want to hear from you: are you team bare or team hair? Is training for a marathon PR harder than training for an Ironman? And what about white tri suits? Give us your opinions and we'll see who truly won the Triathlon Hot Takes Debate!   Closing:   Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed and enjoy the endurance journey!  

Send us a textIn the last couple of years, we have started checking off some bucket list cruises. Given that they are bucket list destinations, vessels, or both it is of little surprise that several of those bucket list check offs made it on to this list. And as we have a number of bucket list cruises in front of us, i suspect this list will evolve over time. Like later this year, our next cruise is a bucket list trip to the Panama Canal on Holland America Lines flagship, Rotterdam, and if what I have researched turns out to be the case I suspect it will crack our top ten. This is an absolutely subjective list, not just that it is our opinion only, but offered from the perspective of non-professional reviewers. We don't have a YouTube channel, so we don't go over ships anywhere near as comprehensively as many of those content creators. We just thought it would be fun to do. Exactly half of the top ten were before The Joy of Cruising Podcast was created, and the other half have been since the podcast, and thus we have done a reflections podcast for each of the five on the list that we have done since the podcast started two and-a-half years ago. So, you could check them out if you missed them.Paul's article about the AmaWaterways AmaKristina Soulful Experience cruise at Quirky Cruise https://quirkycruise.com/amawaterways-soulful-experience-cruise/ 1.     AmaWaterways, AmaKristina by Friends of Festival At Sea2.     Fire & Ice, Hawaii to Alaska to Vancouver on Norwegian Spirit 3.     Celebrity Beyond Mediterranean 4.     Soul Train Cruise on Holland America Line Nieuw Amsterdam5.     The Smooth Jazz Cruise on Celebrity Millenium6.     Explora Journeys, Explora I7.     Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady Transatlantic Cruise8.     Festival At Sea On Celebrity Equinox9.     Carnival Mardi Gras10.   Royal Caribbean Symphony of The Seas Do you have a dream car?Support the showSupport thejoyofcruisingpodcast https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/newSupport Me https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulthContact Me https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.htmlBook Cruises http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/US Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast)The Joy of Cruising https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingCruising Interrupted https://bit.ly/CruisingInterruptedThe Joy of Cruising Again https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgainIntl Orders via Amazon

Tales of 5 A's and Rotterdam

Internationaal is er felle kritiek op het plan van het Israëlische het kabinet om over te gaan tot de militaire bezetting van Gaza-stad.  Rotterdam werd het toneel van een protestmars tegen femicide. De mars werd georganiseerd door Dolle Mina, de vrouwenbeweging die een halve eeuw geleden actie voerde voor gelijkheid, emancipatie en rechtvaardigheid.  De slag van de dode mannen'; de veldslag bij een fort boven Warschau in Polen uit de Eerste Wereldoorlog. Daarbij zetten de Duitsers gifgas in tegen de Russische soldaten, die zich daartegen niet konden beschermen.  Deze zomer voeren in het Oog gesprekken over de traditionele muziek van verschillende landen. Hoe levend is die muziek nog? We zijn aanbeland in Italië.
