Vote by Israeli cabinet on Gaza ceasefire delayed, as Israel continues to carry out strikes; S Korea's arrested president refuses to take part in more questioning, and Pakistan's national airline accused of bad taste.

Latest Israeli strikes kill at least 12 Palestinians across Gaza "At least 12 Palestinians were killed, and several others wounded, in Israel's latest air strikes on Gaza. A medical source reported that three were killed when a drone targeted a motorcycle near Rafah in southern Gaza. Four more lives were lost in an air strike on the Asdaa police station in Khan Younis, the source added. In Abasan Al-Kabira, east of Khan Younis, two Palestinians were killed, and others injured when civilians were hit by another air strike. Meanwhile, Al Awda Hospital confirmed that a strike on a house in Nuseirat camp, central Gaza, claimed two more lives. In Gaza City's Shujaiya neighbourhood, one Palestinian was killed, and several others were injured in an attack on a civilian gathering. " S Korea anti-corruption agency asks police to execute Yoon's arrest warrant "South Korea's anti-corruption agency has asked the police to take over enforcing the arrest warrant for impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol. This comes after a standoff with Yoon's presidential security service prevented his detention last week. Officials confirmed the discussions last week, just hours before the one-week warrant for Yoon's detention was set to expire. The Corruption Investigation Office for High-Ranking Officials is likely to seek a new warrant to extend the detention window, police said, adding that they are currently reviewing the agency's request. " Winter storm won't delay Trump election certification process — Johnson "House Speaker Mike Johnson says the massive winter storm sweeping across the US won't stop Congress from certifying Donald Trump's presidential election win on Monday. Under the Electoral Count Act, the task must be completed at 1 p.m. on January 6, regardless of conditions, Johnson told Fox News. He added that he has encouraged lawmakers to remain in Washington to ensure full attendance despite the storm. " Trudeau to announce resignation as early as Monday — Canadian media "Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is reportedly preparing to announce his resignation as Liberal Party leader as early as Monday, according to The Globe and Mail. Three sources told the outlet they expect the announcement before a key national caucus meeting on Wednesday. However, it's unclear if Trudeau plans to step down immediately or stay on as prime minister until a new leader is selected. " Musk does a U-turn on support for UK's anti-immigration party leader "Elon Musk seems to have reversed his stance on Nigel Farage, leader of the anti-immigration Reform UK party, after a public disagreement with the former Brexit figurehead. On Sunday, Musk posted on X that the Reform Party needs a new leader because Farage lacks what it takes. Farage had recently claimed he was in talks with Musk about a significant donation to his party, which had split the right-wing vote and helped Labour win July's general election. But things soured after Musk voiced support for jailed British extremist agitator Tommy Robinson, a move Farage publicly criticised."

I recommend the excellent complete 19 minute interview which is available on Youtube, search for Paul Watson France 24. From GERMANY-As Israeli troops continue raiding the West Bank with lethal force- the Israeli government announced plans to annex more territory for new settlements in the occupied area. First Akiva Eldar, an Israeli political analyst, talks about the West Bank with Trump as US president and the shift in the Israeli cabinet. Then Laura Blumenfeld, a Mideast analyst at Johns Hopkins University, says Trump is twice as popular as Netanyahu in Israel, and talks further about Israeli plans to annex more of the occupied West Bank.

Press reviews on Israel decided to close their embassy in Ireland, primarily because the Irish government recognized the state of Palestine and divested from Israeli companies. Wednesday was International Migrants Day- an interview with Boston University Global Studies Professor Mark Storella. He talks about the record number of migrants in the world, especially the huge increase from forced migration. He connects the situation with the increase in nationalism and borders. From GERMANY-Israel plans to double the population of the occupied Golan Heights, taken from Syria in the 1970s. Steve Simon from the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft talks about why Israel is bombing weapons storage in Syria and exploiting the overthrow of Assad.

This week's show features stories from France 24, Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba, and NHK Japan, http://youthspeaksout.net/swr241213.mp3 (29:00) From FRANCE- I think press reviews are often the best way to see how unfolding events appear on from a global perspective. So on the topic of the overthrow of Syrian leader Assad, we will begin with reviews from Monday. There was a mixture of celebration from some countries and anger from others. There are 6 million Syrian asylum seekers and refugees worldwide, well over a million in Europe- several countries immediately halted asylum hearings and prepared to send them back. Other press reviews covered Assad receiving asylum in Russia and Israel launching airstrikes and ground incursions in Syria. The Canadian press responded to Trump joking about Trudeau and proposing a 25% tariff on imports from there. Then some press reviews about the South Korean President Yoon, who was nearly impeached for instituting martial law and proposing aggressive military actions into North Korea. Then a report on Israel military airstrikes and ground maneuvers in Syria and the Golan Heights. From GERMANY- Mohammed al-Bashir, former leader of al-Qaeda in Syria and religious governor of Idlib province, has become the interim Prime Minister of Syria- journalist Matthias Ebam gives some background on the man and what some Syrians fear may be a move to Muslim fundamentalism. Then a report on Israeli airstrikes and IDF movements in Syria. From CUBA- Iran accuses the US of playing a key role in the overthrow in Syria. Israeli troops have occupied several villages south of Damascus. Netanyahu says he will not stop the war in Palestine despite ceasefire talks. From JAPAN- The Japanese group of atomic bomb survivors went to Oslo to receive their Nobel Peace Prize.

Dan Roberts "The major western democracies are moving towards corporatism. Democracy has become a business plan, with a bottom line for every human activity, every dream, every decency, every hope.

Having existed through the glory and the doldrums of German wine, the VDP, the association of top wine growers in Germany, has set out to re-establish German wine as one of the finest in the world. With 20 years under its belt, the Grosses Gewachs (“GG”) system has elevated the status of dry German wines in a short time. Theresa Olkus, Managing Director, and Steffen Christmann, President, discuss the history, goals, and role of the VDP and how the GG classification is bringing quality back to dry German wine. Detailed Show Notes: Verband Deutscher Prädikats- und Qualitätsweingüter (“VDP”)“P” standards for quality, those looking to produce top wines from top vineyardsThe goal is to bring the global recognition of German wines back to when the wines were considered some of the best in the world201 members (2023), up from 160 members (1990)10 regional associationsVDP historyStarted end of 19th centuryA movement to counter the industrial winemaking trendCreated quality requirements (e.g. - estate bottling, wine was sold in auction by the barrel and bottled elsewhere; no additions except sulfur, sugar was added before)Post WWI/WWII - cheap, sweet wines became popularGerman Wine Law of 1971 - created quality classification based on must weights, varietal agnostic, leading to consumer confusionThe late 70s/early 80s - German wine quality sank (yields too high), and the law created consumer label confusion, leading to VDP revamp, focus on vineyard sitesJoining the VDP1990-2023 - 130 new members, 1-2 new members/yearMust fulfill criteria, blind tasting, vineyard, and cellar inspectionYou can't apply or buy a membership; a region must invite a wineryBenefits for VDP membersKnowledge sharing Leveraging the VDP brand (eagle logo) - an international sign of qualityVDP events and marketingExporting expertise - 27% of VDP wines exportedLeaving the VDP1-2 members/year leaveMost coached to leaveMostly leave post generational change - don't want to follow VDP rules, quality not at the top levelDry German winesTraditional style before 1900Germans drink as much dry as anywhere else in the world, and the reputation for sweet wines is an international perspectiveHistorically - 2-3% potential abv difference between entry-level and best wines. Today, due to climate change, the sugar levels are the same; only the yields and quality of site create differences~60-70% of VDP members don't make sweet wines, Mosel/Nahe most make sweet, Rheinghau ~20-30% do sweetGrosses Gewächs (“GG”)2002 - implemented in all regions, started w/ Rheingau 1994/5, Pfalz 1996Created positive brand for dry German wines - increase in the average price of GG wines - 2002 - €16, 2023 - €40 (range from €25-150+)German market response was positive, creating pride in German winesUK pushback - writers thought dry German wines were too sour and lacked quality; last to adopt the new style, only in the last 5 yearsScandinavia - a hot spot for German wineElements for GG success - wineries can only make 1 GG wine from 1 Grosses Lage site; wines have gotten betterSignificant markets for GG - used to be Northern Europe, Asia (China, S Korea, Thailand, Singapore)Africa/India/S America - not strong for German winesMore than Riesling - Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc, SilvanerThe next priorities for VDPRenewing German Wine Law, potentially moving VDP classification into lawSustainability/climate change Get access to library episodes Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to Hart Inspired, the show dedicated to highlighting individuals in their pursuit of authentic leadership. We peel back the layers to uncover the roadblocks we all face, explore the actions we can take, and how to persevere toward the best version of ourselves.Meet Tori CampbellTory Campbell was born in S Korea, but orphaned at birth. She was raised in the US by Caucasian parents. While she embraces her ethnicity, it has been a struggle to fully identify with her Asian heritage. After graduating college armed with a major of study that wouldn't be applied, Tory fell into her career path of general administrative work. Using those transferable skills, she managed to land in roles within manufacturing, IT/AV procurement for the DoD and Navy, and most recently within the Design/Planning industry.This podcast was created by Hartmetrics Consulting, editing and co-produced by David Castle Productions and co-distributed by BusinessTravel360.  For more information about Hartmetrics consulting, visit us at Hartmetrics.comSupport the show

*) US-Afghan talks on release of frozen assets to continue US President Joe Biden's administration will press ahead with talks on releasing billions of dollars in Afghanistan's foreign-held assets. This is despite the late Al Qaeda leader's presence in Kabul, and Washington's frustration with the pace, according to sources with knowledge of the situation, Reuters news agency has reported. The decision to pursue the initiative to help stabilise Afghanistan's collapsed economy underscores growing concern over a humanitarian crisis as the United Nations warns that nearly half the country's 40 million people face "acute hunger" as winter approaches. *) Russia's Ukraine soldiers trial to undermine talks Russia might take the provocative step of putting Ukrainian soldiers on trial as Kiev marks 31 years of independence on Wednesday, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has warned. Zelenskyy warned: "If this despicable court takes place, if our people are brought into these settings in violation of all agreements, all international rules, there will be abuse." Ukraine's Independence Day on August 24 will also mark six months since Russia attacked the former Soviet republic, in a devastating war that has cost thousands of lives. *) Police file terrorism charges against Pakistan's Imran Khan In Pakistan, police have filed terrorism charges against former prime minister Imran Khan, escalating political tensions in the country. Pakistan's media watchdog has banned the live telecast of Khan's speeches, after he was accused of threatening top police officials and a female judge during a rally in Islamabad. Following that rally, Islamabad police registered a criminal complaint against Khan under the country's anti-terrorism act. *) ​​US, S Korea begin biggest military drills since 2018 amid N Korea backlash The United States and South Korea have begun their biggest combined military drills since 2018 – a move likely to enrage North Korea, which has been ramping up its nuclear threats. The two countries have long carried out joint exercises, which they insist are purely defensive but North Korea sees them as a rehearsal for invasion. The annual joint military drills mark the resumption of large-scale training sessions after they were scaled back due to Covid-19 and a bout of failed diplomacy with Pyongyang. *) Computer-animated movie 'Dragon Ball' slays at box office in North America Computer-animated martial arts film "Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero," the 21st in the Japanese franchise, has seized control of the North American box office. With an impressive $20.1 million in ticket sales, it was hailed as the best global opening ever for an anime movie by distributor Crunchyroll. The film outshined the $11.6 million take of another new release, Universal's "Beast".

So this time, we are taking a trip to the Emerald Isles with Jesse Candelori and Janine Dahling to talk about the 2012 movie Grabbers!
