And what does this partial opening mean for the devastated state of Gaza’s health system, and for wounded patients and their families, and the fragile "ceasefire"?

"Quattro presunti familiari" di Daniele Mencarelli e "Casa, dolce casa" di Andrea KerbakerUn romanzo nero che gira intorno al ritrovamento di uno scheletro nei boschi vicino Latina. Appartiene a una donna e la morte risale a circa venti anni prima. I carabinieri decidono così di convocare i parenti delle tre ragazze scomparse in quel periodo. Questa è a grandi linee la trama di "Quattro presunti familiari" (Sellerio) scritto da Daniele Mencarelli, noto per romanzi come "Tutto chiede salvezza" e "La casa degli sguardi". Se nei precedenti romanzi aveva narrato le dipendenze e il disagio mentale, in questo sembra virare verso il noir. In effetti c'è un'indagine (bisogna scoprire l'identità della vittima comparando il DNA delle ossa con quello dei familiari), ma quella che prevale è soprattutto l'indagine sulla psicologia di questi familiari e anche sui carabinieri che lavorano al caso. C'è la voce narrante, l'appuntato Emanuele Circosta, che si definisce un mediocre: di fronte alle violenze e ai soprusi commessi dal collega Liberati, preferisce tacere diventando in parte complice. Sarà Circosta a dover gestire i difficili equilibri dei quattro presunti familiari: i coniugi Martelli che hanno perso la figlia, la signora Parrino che aveva denunciato la scomparsa della sorella, il giovane Lucio Marini, la cui madre era scomparsa quando lui aveva solo dieci anni. Nella seconda parte un romanzo tenero e amaro sulla vecchiaia, narrato con ironia. In "Casa, dolce casa" (Guanda), Andrea Kerbaker racconta la storia di George, un quasi novantenne che vive in una residenza per anziani nel sud della Gran Bretagna. Ha spesso dei vuoti di memoria, si intuisce che ha una forma di demenza senile, ma ha la sufficiente lucidità per capire che le condizioni di vita nella residenza per anziani non sono accettabili. Il personale è gentile, ma c'è una condiscendenza affettata. George è disturbato, per esempio, dalla mancanza di dignità personale, ma soprattutto reclama libertà e indipendenza. Per questo decide di scappare dalla residenza per anziani e tornare nella propria abitazione. Questo breve viaggio sarà l'occasione per riflettere sulla sua condizione, ma anche per fare un bilancio personale sul passato: che marito e che padre è stato George? Un romanzo puntellato dall'ironia e che narra, utilizzando la seconda persona singolare, una vicenda dolce e nello stesso tempo amara.

Unfortunately, after recent elections, we are almost guaranteed to be facing an assault weapons ban along with a myriad of other gun control next year. I'm currently stocking up in hopes of a grandfather clause. I have plenty of AR15 components; however, I don't have any piston guns. Any suggestions for something I should consider picking up before I can't anymore? I'm not interested in an AK, and I would like to stick to either 556, 300 Blackout, or 6.5 creedmore.

It was about making a pistol brace for your 3d printed firearms. My follow up question is. What is the likelihood that any of the 3d printed pistols with a pistol brace, would have gotten a letter from the ATF. Case in point, the MacDaddy MAC 11 has a pistol brace designed on it. So then since that designer most likely has not gotten a letter from the ATF, does that mean the 1000s of people that have printed it and installed it are breaking the law? That being said, is there any negative effects on submitting a brace design to the ATF. I carry every day with my DB Alloy MAC 11 in my backpack? And last follow up question. If a steel plate at had a serial number engraved on it to ATF specs that then was inserted into the printed frame during the printing process and could not be removed without destroying the print be in compliance with the ATF rules?

Il cacciatore di libri

"L'alba dei leoni" di Stefania AuciIl nome di Stefania Auci è legato alla saga dei Florio. Nei romanzi "I leoni di Sicilia", libro più venduto in Italia nel 2019, e poi "L'inverno dei leoni", aveva narrato la parabola della famiglia Florio, arrivata a Palermo dalla Calabria a cavallo fra il '700 e l'800. L'ascesa, il successo commerciale, le vicende personali e poi la caduta. Ora il romanzo "L'alba dei leoni" (Nord) racconta le vicende dei Florio prima del trasferimento in Sicilia. Siamo, dunque, fra il 1772 e il 1799 a Bagnara Calabra. Ci sono Vincenzo Florio, fabbro, e la moglie Rosa con i vari figli, fra cui c'è Francesco, considerato il ribelle perché non vuole fare lo stesso mestiere del padre. Viene rapito da una banda di briganti ed è costretto a stare con loro per diversi mesi. La vita di stenti, la violenza, la paura, ma sempre il costante desiderio di essere artefice del proprio destino. C'è poi il terremoto del 1783 che distrugge quasi completamente Bagnara, infine il focus si sposta su un altro personaggio, Paolo, che come il fratello Francesco non vuole fare il fabbro ma vorrebbe andare per mare. Sarà lui, insieme al fratello Ignazio, ad andare poi a Palermo, avviare l'aromateria e dare inizio alla storia imprenditoriale dei Florio. Questo è dunque un prequel de "I leoni di Sicilia", ma è soprattutto la storia di due ragazzi, Francesco e Paolo, che vogliono segnare il proprio destino, ribellandosi alle imposizioni del padre. Ed è anche la storia di tante donne che alla fine del '700 vivono una condizione di sottomissione e silenzio, in cui si inserisce qualche raro tentativo di indipendenza.

Join us for a timely and insightful conversation on the evolving landscape of anti-money laundering (AML) compliance in consumer financial services. In this episode of the Consumer Finance Monitor Podcast, Alan Kaplinsky, founder and senior counsel of Ballard Spahr's Consumer Financial Services Group, hosts Terence Grugan, co-chair of Ballard Spahr's AML team and a recognized authority in financial crimes compliance. Together, they deliver a comprehensive discussion on the latest regulatory developments, enforcement trends, and strategic implications for institutions across the industry. Episode Overview and Key Takeaways: 1.     Regulatory Streamlining: Explore how AML and Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) compliance requirements are being recalibrated, with a focus on reducing unnecessary burdens, modernizing supervisory practices, and emphasizing substance over form. 2.     Bank Examination Modernization: Learn how recent policy changes are promoting risk-based, targeted examinations for community banks, enabling institutions to allocate resources more effectively while maintaining compliance. 3.     Non-Bank Financial Institution Developments: Gain insights into emerging proposals from FinCEN and the Treasury aimed at gathering industry feedback and potentially scaling back AML obligations for non-bank entities such as casinos, money services businesses, and others. 4.     SAR Reporting Reforms: Hear about FinCEN's clarifications that are refining suspicious activity reporting (SAR) requirements, streamlining documentation, and reducing operational complexity for financial institutions. 5.     Evolving Crypto Regulation: Assess the regulatory retreat within the cryptocurrency sector, implications for AML risk, and anticipated impact of new regulatory initiatives including upcoming Stablecoin rules. 6.     Enforcement Trends: Review notable shifts in enforcement priorities, with fewer high-profile AML fines this year and an increased focus on targeting substantive violations rather than technical compliance failures. 7.     National Security and Economic Policy Alignment: Understand how AML and financial crime policies are aligning with broader national security priorities, including sanctions compliance, immigration enforcement, and efforts to disrupt international cartels. 8.     Future Outlook: Preview possible future developments, including greater centralization of AML enforcement within the Treasury Department and continuing modernization of compliance obligations. This episode equips financial institutions, compliance professionals, and industry leaders with expert perspectives on the regulatory, operational, and strategic changes transforming AML compliance. Consumer Finance Monitor is hosted by Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel at Ballard Spahr, and the founder and former chair of the firm's Consumer Financial Services Group.

Ilaria apre la puntata parlando di endometriosi, una patologia infiammatoria cronica che colpisce circa il 10–11% delle donne in età riproduttiva, ma che continua a essere poco compresa e fortemente sottofinanziata. Per anni l'endometriosi è stata considerata quasi esclusivamente una malattia ormono-dipendente; oggi, però, nuovi studi suggeriscono che il sistema immunitario giochi un ruolo chiave fin dalle primissime fasi. In particolare, un modello patogenetico a due fasi mostra come neutrofili e macrofagi possano favorire l'attecchimento delle lesioni prima ancora che entrino in gioco gli estrogeni, aprendo la strada a nuove prospettive diagnostiche e terapeutiche.Nell'esterna, Giuliana ci porta fuori dallo studio per affrontare una domanda solo apparentemente paradossale: perché dimenticare è importante? A rispondere è Sergio Della Sala, professore di neuroscienze cognitive umane all'Università di Edimburgo, che spiega come l'oblio non sia un difetto del cervello, ma una funzione fondamentale per filtrare le informazioni, ridurre il sovraccarico cognitivo e rendere la memoria davvero efficiente.A chiudere la puntata è Andrea, che ci porta lontano dalla Terra, su Titano, la luna più grande di Saturno. Una nuova rianalisi dei dati della missione Cassini suggerisce che il celebre oceano sotterraneo ipotizzato per anni potrebbe non esistere. Al suo posto, l'energia mareale sembrerebbe dissiparsi in uno strato di ghiaccio ad alta pressione, forse “slushy”, con sacche di acqua liquida. Sarà la futura missione Dragonfly a dirci se Titano ha ancora qualche sorpresa da svelare.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scientificast-la-scienza-come-non-l-hai-mai-sentita--1762253/support.

In this series, we've been talking about four names given to Jesus before He was born. In this message, Lead Pastor Jamie Nunnally shares the significance of the name: Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6 tells us that Messiah's name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.Today we focus on Prince of Peace. In Hebrew, Sar Shalom.Sar means Captain, Chief, General, Ruler. Jesus doesn't give sentimental peace—He establishes peace by enforcing the rule of the King.So what is peace? In Hebrew, Shalom.Shalom is an all-encompassing word that describes when everything is as it should be.Calling the Messiah the Prince of Peace isn't a promise of fewer battles; it's God promising His presence through them. When your world is falling apart, God sent the One who holds all things together. He doesn't just have peace—He is peace.Peace does not come from inactivity.1 Peter 3:11 says to seek peace and pursue it. Peace won't come by doing nothing. If the world has to stop for you to have peace, you'll never have peace. Peace isn't the absence of problems; it's remaining resolute despite them.Peace does not come from control.Some people think peace comes when they get their own way. That's not peace—that's immaturity. Proverbs 3:5 reminds us to trust in the Lord and not lean on our own understanding. You cannot control your way into peace.Three Things Jesus Does as the Prince of PeaceJesus demonstrates how to live a life of peace. In Mark 4, Jesus sleeps during a storm while the disciples panic. A storm outside doesn't have to mean a storm inside. Fear responds to facts; faith responds to truth. Sometimes peace isn't God calming the storm as much as God calming His child.Jesus secured the peace treaty between God and mankind. Colossians 1 tells us that through the cross, Jesus made peace between God and humanity. You can't experience the peace of God until you've made peace with God. Peace with God isn't earned—it's received.Jesus offers us His peace. John 14:27 says Jesus gives us His peace, not the world's version. You can't have the peace of God while fighting the rule of God. Peace is a person you must yield to. Where Jesus is Lord, peace will rule; where He is not, chaos will rule.ClosingIsaiah 26:3 says God keeps in perfect peace those whose minds are fixed on Him. Peace doesn't come from changing everything around you—it comes from fixing your focus. When your thoughts are fixed on fear, peace gets blurry. When they're fixed on the Prince of Peace, clarity comes.A new year is right around the corner. What if we don't need a new year—we just need a new ruler? Where the Prince rules, His peace reigns.Are you letting Jesus be your Prince of Peace?

La vergine si chiamava Maria. Entrando da lei, disse: «Rallégrati, piena di grazia: il Signore è con te».A queste parole ella fu molto turbata e si domandava che senso avesse un saluto come questo. L'angelo le disse: «Non temere, Maria, perché hai trovato grazia presso Dio. Ed ecco, concepirai un figlio, lo darai alla luce e lo chiamerai Gesù. Sarà grande e verrà chiamato Figlio dell'Altissimo; il Signore Dio gli darà il trono di Davide suo padre e regnerà per sempre sulla casa di Giacobbe e il suo regno non avrà fine».Allora Maria disse all'angelo: «Come avverrà questo, poiché non conosco uomo?». Le rispose l'angelo: «Lo Spirito Santo scenderà su di te e la potenza dell'Altissimo ti coprirà con la sua ombra. Perciò colui che nascerà sarà santo e sarà chiamato Figlio di Dio. Ed ecco, Elisabetta, tua parente, nella sua vecchiaia ha concepito anch'essa un figlio e questo è il sesto mese per lei, che era detta sterile: nulla è impossibile a Dio».Allora Maria disse: «Ecco la serva del Signore: avvenga per me secondo la tua parola».

The Space Show presents Manuel Cuba of Helix Space Luxembourg, Friday, 12-12-25.Quick SummaryOur program focused on Helix Space's operations in Luxembourg and their role in the European space sector, including discussions about funding, defense services, and commercial space activities. Manuel explained how Helix Space helps European companies access funding and develop innovation programs, while also addressing European space initiatives and launch capabilities. The conversation concluded with discussions about space medicine research, European space capabilities and challenges, and potential collaboration opportunities between American and European space companies.Detail SummaryOur guest shared that Helix Space, based in Luxembourg, has been operating for five years, noting that the COVID period was relatively mild in Luxembourg compared to other regions. John Jossie inquired about the impact of the UK's cancellation of its space department on European space activities, to which Manuel responded that it caused some media attention but had minimal practical impact, as the UK continues to contribute to the European Space Agency. This program began with an introduction to Helix Space and its ecosystem, focusing on the Luxembourg Space Agency (LSA) and its role in accessing European Space Agency funding. Manuel explained the differences between the European Space Agency and the European Union Space Agency, highlighting their distinct responsibilities and occasional conflicts. The discussion also touched on European space initiatives like Iris Squared and the competition among European nation-states in the space sector.Manuel discussed his role as Managing Director of Helix Space in Luxembourg, explaining the company's focus on space technology and satellite manufacturing. David announced upcoming programs featuring Isaac Arthur, Michael Listner and Dr. Mike Griffin, and reminded listeners of the ongoing annual campaign. The show also highlighted the importance of listener support and various payment options, including PayPal, Zelle, and Substack.Manuel explained that Helix Space, which he co-founded over five years ago, initially focused on developing microgravity research products for both humans and animals, but later shifted its focus to 90% defense-related services and 10% civil space services. He detailed how the company helps European companies obtain public and private funding, develop innovation programs, and improve cybersecurity standards. David inquired about the commercial space boom, to which Manuel shared that both Luxembourg's Space Agency and the European Space Agency prioritize funding projects with strong commercial viability, requiring detailed business plans and evidence of market potential before supporting research and development.Manuel discussed the Feed for Start program, a national accelerator in Luxembourg that supports space companies worldwide, with successful graduates eligible for government funding to establish operations in Luxembourg. He highlighted a French company that enables rocket launch bookings, noting its improved website and growing customer base. John Jossy inquired about the market sectors for satellite customers, and Manuel outlined the main categories: traditional SATCOM, Earth observation, space services, and space resources, with Europe focusing on defensive measures rather than weaponization in space. David asked about Europe's stance on space weaponization, to which Manuel confirmed that Europe prioritizes defensive capabilities and cybersecurity measures, such as zero-trust architectures and potential robotic arms for satellite protection.Manuel discussed the significant impact of the Russian Ukrainian war on Europe's space sector, highlighting increased investments and the rapid sale of SAR satellites by Finnish company Ice Eye. He mentioned European companies like Redwire and Tumi Robotics developing autonomous systems for microgravity research and lunar exploration. Manuel also explained Helix Space's involvement with the European Space Resources Innovation Center's Startup Support Program, which helps startups develop terrestrial applications of lunar technology, and addressed the criticism and potential impact of the Artemis program on the European space industry.Next, the discussion focused on European space launch capabilities and trends. Manuel explained that while Ariane Space remains a significant provider with 11-12 launches annually, Europe is developing multiple new rocket companies including Rocket Factory Augsburg, ISAR Aerospace, and PLD Space to reduce dependency on foreign launch providers. Marshall inquired about European preferences for launch providers and payment methods, to which Manuel responded that public procurement follows open tenders while private actors choose based on availability and cost. David raised questions about European spaceports and private space stations, with Manuel noting that while there's activity around autonomous vehicles and payload capabilities, European companies like Airbus are partnering with American companies like Voyager Holdings for space station development.Manuel discussed Helix Base's for-profit business model, highlighting their success in helping companies raise funds and their work with European Space Resources Innovation Center. He mentioned several companies they work with, including Tumi Robotics, Space Backend, and Polymux Space, which are developing innovative technologies for space exploration and resource utilization. John Jossy inquired about Luxembourg's space resources law and asteroid mining, to which Manuel provided insights into the companies involved in these activities and their progress.Manuel explained that Helix Space focuses on preventive medicine rather than pharmaceutical development, drawing inspiration from his father's experience with alternative treatment in Peru and historical medical practices. He noted that healthcare costs are skyrocketing globally, with a significant portion of budgets dedicated to healthcare, and emphasized the need for preventive measures. Manuel and his wife, a systems biology expert, are exploring unconventional medical approaches based on historical anecdotes and scientific research, though he acknowledged that some of their findings should be taken with a grain of salt.Manuel discussed his company's efforts to develop preventive medicine treatments for conditions like osteoarthritis through space-based experiments. After assessing microgravity service providers in Europe, they found limited interest and decided to pause their efforts until there is more commercial demand. Manuel expressed frustration with the current space research ecosystem, particularly regarding the International Space Station's capabilities and the lengthy development processes, and emphasized the need for streamlined, autonomous operations in the future.Our guest explained that while space medicine research exists, there are no concrete medical products developed in space that have made it to market on Earth. He described the European Space Agency's requirement for business plans, which led to the adoption of the Business Model Canvas as a structured framework for proposal submissions. Manuel detailed how the Value Proposition Canvas tool helps identify and balance the diverse needs of different stakeholders in a business context, particularly relevant for space projects where system engineering processes are crucial.Manuel explained the opportunities for American startups to access the European market through Helix Pace, a chartered member of the American Chamber of Commerce in Luxembourg. He highlighted the country's openness to American companies setting up subsidiaries or headquarters, as well as access to funding and expertise. He also discussed the European Space Agency's interest in lunar exploration and the selection process for astronauts, emphasizing the need for diplomatic negotiations and collaboration with NASA.Toward the end, our Managing Director guest discussed Europe's space capabilities and challenges, noting that while Europe lacks expertise and infrastructure to compete with China's moon program, it is focused on defense and rearmament. He mentioned that the European Space Agency is concerned about space debris and space weather and is developing programs to track debris and study its impact on infrastructure. Manuel also shared that RSS Hydro, a Luxembourg-based commercial space company specializing in flood and wildfire risk management, has been doubling revenue for the past three years and is expanding in the US. David invited Manuel to join the show's advisory board and suggested potential US events for Manuel to attend, including the Space Symposium and ISDC in Washington, D.C.Special thanks to our sponsors:Northrup Grumman, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.
