It's one small step for SpaceX, one giant leap for New Zealand's fledgling space industry. A rocket bearing a first-ever experiment built in Lower Hutt has lifted off from Cape Canaveral. The mission, called Hēki, will plug onto the outside of the International Space Station. Scores of scientists and others watched the launch on a screen at a Victoria University facility in Lower Hutt this morning. Phil Pennington reports.

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW SCHEDULE  9-12-25 GOOD EVENING. THE SHOW BEGINS IN GAZA WITH THE GOAL OF DEHAMASIFICATION.. FIRST HOUR 9-915 John Bolton criticizes the "two-state solution" as a dead idea post-October 7th, proposing a "three-state solution" where Gaza returns to Egypt or is divided, and the West Bank is managed by Israel and Jordan. He emphasizes "De-Hamasification" as crucial and humanitarian, arguing that Arab nations, particularly Egypt, resist taking Gazan refugees due to fears of importing Hamas/Muslim Brotherhood influence. Bolton believes this is necessary for a stable future in the region. 915-930 Lorenzo Fiori shares a traditional Milanese recipe for "rice with saffron" (risotto alla Milanese), often served at La Scalagala dinners, describing it as delicious and creamy with parmesan cheese. He recommends pairing it with Italian wines like Barolo or Barbaresco from Piedmont. Fiori also discusses Italy's economic concerns regarding political instability in France and Germany, and the ongoing international interest in NATO events. 930-945 Gene Marks describes a mixed economic picture, noting that a national "slowdown" isn't universally felt, with many small businesses thriving. He highlights challenges like rising healthcare costs, spurring interest in self-insurance and health reimbursement arrangements. Marks discusses AI's impact on the workforce, specifically reducing sales and tech roles in large companies like Salesforce, but predicts a surge in demand for skilled trades not easily replaced by AI. 945-1000 CONTINUED Gene Marks describes a mixed economic picture, noting that a national "slowdown" isn't universally felt, with many small businesses thriving.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Jim McTague reports from Lancaster County, PA, challenging the narrative of an economic slowdown. He shares examples of busy local businesses like "Phil the painter" who has never been busier. McTague observes a trend of housing price cuts, but notes vibrant local tourism and events. He highlights the significant economic boost from two new data centers, creating 600-1000 construction jobs and 150 permanent positions, bringing the county into the 21st century. 1015-1030 Max Meizlish, a senior research analyst, highlights how Chinese money laundering networks are fueling America's fentanyl epidemic by cleaning drug proceeds for Mexican cartels. These networks also enable wealthy Chinese nationals to bypass capital control 1030-1045 Richard Epstein discusses federal district court judges defying presidential orders, attributing it to a breakdown of trust and the president's "robust view of executive power" that disregards established procedures and precedents. He explains that judges may engage in "passive resistance" or "cheating in self-defense" when they perceive the president acting for political reasons or abusing power, such as in budget cuts or dismissals. Epstein also links this distrust to gerrymandering and increasing political polarization1045-1100 Richard Epstein discusses federal district court judges defying presidential orders, attributing it to a breakdown of trust and the president's "robust view of executive power" that disregards established procedures and precedents.

Epstein also links this distrust to gerrymandering and increasing political polarization. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Henry Sokolski addresses the critical challenge of the US power grid meeting AI data center demands, which are projected to require gigawatt-scale facilities and vastly increased electricity by 2030. He questions who bears the risk and cost of this buildout, advocating for AI companies to fund their own power generation. Sokolski also discusses the debate around nuclear power as a solution and Iran's suspect nuclear weapons program, highlighting the complexities of snapback sanctions and accounting for uranium. 1115-1130 CONTINUED Henry Sokolski addresses the critical challenge of the US power grid meeting AI data center demands, which are projected to require gigawatt-scale facilities and vastly increased electricity by 2030.

Sokolski also discusses the debate around nuclear power as a solution and Iran's suspect nuclear weapons program, highlighting the complexities of snapback sanctions and accounting for uranium.1130-1145 Professor John Cochrane of the Hoover Institution attributes current inflation to the fiscal theory of the price level. He explains that massive government spending, such as the $5 trillion borrowed during COVID-19 with $3 trillion printed by the Fed, combined with no credible plan for repayment, directly causes inflation. Cochrane differentiates this from monetarism, noting that quantitative easing (printing money and taking back bonds) did not lead to inflation. He emphasizes that the 2022 inflation spike was a loss of confidence in the government's ability to pay its debts. Successful disinflations, he argues, require a combination of monetary, fiscal, and microeconomic reforms. 1145-1200 Professor John Cochrane of the Hoover Institution attributes current inflation to the fiscal theory of the price level.

He notes the president's decisiveness, courtesy to subordinates, and long workdays, with constant activity in the Oval Office. Black contrasts this informal style with Roosevelt and Nixon, suggesting it's a "three-ring circus" that nonetheless works due to Trump's methods. He also touches on Canadian perceptions, acknowledging Trump's work ethic despite political differences.EV1215-1230 Brandon Weichert highlights the immense power demands of AI and AGI data centers, requiring gigawatts of electricity and facing significant regulatory hurdles. He discusses the potential weaponization of AI, noting human nature's tendency to weaponize new technologies. Weichert shares personal experiences with AI tools like Grok, Gemini, and Claude, including instances of AI "diversion" rather than hallucination. He emphasizes the need to master this technology, as the substantial investment ensures its permanence.1230-1245 Bob Zimmerman details SpaceX's expanding Starlink reach, including a $17 billion deal to acquire Echostar's FCCspectrum licenses, ensuring Echostar's survival by partnering rather than competing. He also reports on Starship Super Heavy's 10th test flight, where metal thermal tiles failed but significant lessons were learned, with plans for an 11th flight and version three development. NASA's Dragonfly mission to Titan is vastly over budget and behind schedule, risking failure.

Comentamos el futuro de la Starship tras sus múltiples lanzamientos y los desafíos pendientes para alcanzar las misiones a Marte y la Luna, en particular el programa Artemis. Explicamos la complejidad de los repostajes orbitales y las presiones a las que se enfrenta SpaceX, y la dificultad de cumplir con los plazos prometidos, como la llegada a la Luna en 2026. Repasamos el Master Plan 4 de Tesla. Ha quedado muy vago y etéreo en comparación con los planes maestros anteriores de la compañía. Comentamos cómo este nuevo plan, centrado en conceptos generales de IA, robótica y sostenibilidad, carece de la especificidad y las metas concretas que caracterizaron las estrategias pasadas de Tesla. Continuando con Tesla, profundizamos en el estado de sus promesas de Full Self-Driving y los Robotaxis, señalando que, a pesar de los anuncios, el servicio de robotaxis en Austin todavía requiere de un supervisor humano, lo que pone en cuestión el nivel de autonomía real. Analizamos las audaces predicciones de Musk sobre la cobertura de robotaxis y el valor futuro del robot Optimus, comparándolas con el historial de retrasos de otros proyectos como el Tesla Semi y el estancamiento del Cybertruck. - Tesla on X: «Master Plan Part IV» / X - Tesla moves ‘Robotaxi' safety monitor from passenger to driver's seat | Electrek - El nuevo Tesla Model Y Performance es una auténtica bestia, más potencia, más autonomía… y un precio que sorprende - Tesla sorprende con el nuevo Model Y L, un SUV más familiar con 6 plazas y tamaño de BYD Tang - SpaceX hace sin problemas un segundo encendido estático de la próxima Starship que va a lanzar - Musk Donated $15M to Trump, GOP in June | Newsmax.com - Exclusive: Tesla's brand loyalty collapsed after Musk backed Trump, data shows | Reuters - Cybertruck Leads Tesla's Used-Car Collapse - Tesla mantiene la caída de las ventas en Europa ante el ascenso de su rival chino BYD ELON está presentado por Matías S.

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW SCHEDULE  9-10-25 Good evening. The show begins in Poland as the government and military respond to drones crossing the Belarus to Poland border... FIRST HOUR 9-915 General Blaine Holt NATO Reacts to Russian Drone Incursions into Poland General Blaine Holt analyzes Russiandrone incursions into Polish airspace from Belarus, triggering a NATO Article 4 meeting. While NATO calls it an "intentional incursion" to allow de-escalation, Poland considers it an "act of war." The incident highlights NATO's rapid response capabilities and the broader "poly crisis" in Europe, requiring diplomatic de-escalation. 915-930 CONTINUED General Blaine Holt NATO Reacts to Russian Drone Incursions into Poland General Blaine Holt analyzes Russiandrone incursions into Polish airspace from Belarus, triggering a NATO Article 4 meeting.

The LDP lacks a majority, complicating coalition-building. Takaichi Sanae, a conservative candidate critical of China, is opposed by Beijing's propagandists, highlighting China's active influence in the Japanese political landscape .945-1000 Captain James Fanell NATO Article 4 Invoked Amidst Russian Drones, China's South China Sea AggressionCaptain James Fanell discusses NATO's Article 4 invocation after Russian drones entered Polish airspace during Zapad exercises, potentially testing defenses. He also details China's escalating aggression in the South China Sea, where its navy chased a Philippine vessel near Scarborough Shoal. The "poly crisis" necessitates increased US defense spending and alliances. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Steve Yates Pentagon's National Defense Strategy Amidst Global Crises Steve Yates discusses the Pentagon's new National Defense Strategy (NDS), which prioritizes China as the "pacing challenge" over climate change. The "Fortress America" concept of homeland defense is debated against the need for alliances and extended deterrence. Events like Russian drones in Poland underscore the loss of US initiative and the urgency of adaptive defense strategies. 1015-1030 Charles Burton Canada's Dilemma: Chinese EVs and National Security Charles Burton discusses Canada'sreluctance to link national security with China, specifically regarding Chinese EVs (dubbed "spy machines"). Canadaimposed 100% tariffs at US request, leading to China's retaliation on Canadian canola. This creates a dilemma, as Canada prioritizes economic gain despite China's espionage and potential US border bans on Chinese EVs.1030-1045 Andrea Stricker Iran's Nuclear Program Targeted, Verification Crisis Ensues Andrea Stricker discusses Israel and USstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities like Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan, destroying centrifuges and weaponization capabilities. The IAEA cannot verify Iran's nuclear material locations after inspectors were expelled. Iran's 60% enriched uranium poses a proliferation risk, leading to anticipated UN sanctions. The strikes prevented JCPOA-allowed centrifuge surges.1045-1100CONTINUED Andrea Stricker Iran's Nuclear Program Targeted, Verification Crisis Ensues Andrea Stricker discusses Israel and USstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities like Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan, destroying centrifuges and weaponization capabilities.

In this episode of Pushing the Limits, Lisa Tamati sits down with Cern Basher, financial analyst and commentator, to explore how Elon Musk's companies are not just reshaping industries but also driving us toward an entirely new economic and technological system. We break down Tesla's disruptive role in the automotive and energy sectors, SpaceX's transformation of space access, and how Musk's broader ecosystem, including Starlink, Neuralink, and The Boring Company, represents a coordinated push to re-engineer our future infrastructure. Cern explains how these companies function as a parallel system, shifting us from legacy industries and centralised control toward decentralised, tech-driven frameworks. We also explore: Tesla's market dominance and its implications for energy sovereignty SpaceX and the geopolitics of global satellite communication The Musk “ecosystem effect”, how each company feeds into the other The financial, cultural, and political risks that accompany these transitions How investors and everyday people can position themselves in this shift If you want to understand how the Musk industry empire is changing the way we live, work, and build wealth, this conversation is for you.

In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, host David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck are joined by Valkyrie Holmes, the CEO and co-founder of FAURA, for a look into the future of risk assessment. Valkyrie explains how her background in data science at NASA and SpaceX led to the creation of FAURA, a platform that quantifies a property's ability to withstand natural disasters, a concept she calls property survivability. They discuss how this technology equips agents with the tools to explain risk, justify pricing in a hard market, and offer clients actionable steps for mitigation. The conversation covers the agent education gap, building codes as "minimum wage," and how granular, property-level data is changing the insurance landscape. Key Highlights: Introducing FAURA: Quantifying Property Survivability Valkyrie Holmes details how FAURA uses hundreds of data points to generate a simple 0-100 survivability score, moving beyond general climate risk to assess how a specific property will fare in a disaster. This provides a clear, understandable metric for agents and policyholders, empowering them with the principle that "if you can't explain the risk, you can't justify the price." Arming Agents in a Hard Market The conversation addresses the agent education gap. In a market where agents struggle to explain rate increases, FAURA provides property-specific data that acts as "weaponry," allowing them to have informed conversations about risk factors and justify pricing, ultimately helping them retain clients by offering proactive solutions instead of just bad news. From Assessment to Actionable Mitigation FAURA's platform is more than just a score; it's a solution. After an initial assessment, a digital inspection generates a detailed report with a prioritized list of mitigation actions. It then connects users with vetted local contractors, turning a complex problem into a manageable and actionable plan for homeowners. The Science of Wildfire & Hail Resilience The discussion dives into specific perils, revealing that simple, low-cost actions can dramatically increase a property's chance of survival. Valkyrie shares examples, such as ember-resistant screens for wildfire defense, showing how data-driven insights can lead to effective and accessible mitigation strategies that agents can share with their clients.

Nicole Stott had a remarkable career with NASA, logging more than 100 days in outer space.  Her time on the International Space Station drives her appreciation for the importance of cooperation across cultures and national boundaries.  On this Blue Sky episode, she describes lessons learned from her time as an astronaut, and the inspiring work she does today through the Space For Art Foundation, and her optimistic and solutions-oriented approach to life.    Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to Nicole Stott  This chapter introduces Nicole Stott, a retired NASA astronaut, aquanaut, engineer, artist, and author. It highlights her unique experiences as one of fewer than 600 people to have flown in space, her inspiration from her father, and her journey into aeronautical engineering after a personal tragedy.  03:42 From Tragedy to Astronaut  Nicole shares the profound impact of her father's tragic death in a plane crash on her career path, explaining how it fueled her desire to understand how things fly, leading to aeronautical engineering and eventually NASA. She also touches on her ‘aquanaut' experience, spending 18 days underwater as training for spaceflight.  12:07 The Power of Optimism in Space  Nicole discusses the ‘here's how we can' approach essential for space travel, contrasting it with pessimism, and emphasizing the importance of teamwork in an international setting. She details her missions on the Space Shuttle and International Space Station, highlighting the global collaboration required for such complex endeavors.  19:18 Earth as Spaceship, Us as Crewmates  Nicole reflects on the profound perspective gained from space, seeing Earth's thin atmosphere as a fragile ‘thin blue line' and the International Space Station's hull as a parallel. This realization fuels her belief that all humans are ‘crewmates' on ‘Spaceship Earth,' inspiring a collective mission to protect our planet.  27:01 Art, Space, and Healing  Nicole shares her passion for art, which developed from a young age and continued during her space missions, where she created the first watercolor painting in space. This passion led her to establish the Space for Art Foundation, which uses space-themed art therapy to inspire and unite children in pediatric hospitals and refugee centers worldwide.  34:38 The Future of Space and Humanity  Nicole discusses the current landscape of space exploration, including public-private partnerships with companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin, and the broader motivations behind these endeavors. She also highlights the ‘never underestimate the importance of bugs' principle, emphasizing that small individual actions can lead to significant planetary solutions.  45:12 Mars, The Moon, and Space Solar Power  Nicole addresses the potential for space-based solar power, highlighting its significant cost but comparing it to other large global expenditures. She concludes by expressing her optimism about humans landing on Mars within the next 30-50 years, with the Moon serving as a crucial steppingstone for this ambitious journey.

Marc Tarpenning is Co-founder of Tesla and a venture partner at Spero Ventures. In 2003, Marc and Martin Eberhard saw two signals: GM killed its beloved EV1, and Californians snapped up Toyota's Prius despite its compromises. They realized the market was ready for an electric car that was better than gas, not worse. Their breakthrough: 7,000 off-the-shelf laptop batteries powering a sports car that outran a Porsche and drove over 200 miles. The Tesla Roadster was born, before Elon Musk joined the company.Marc shares how his time in Saudi Arabia exposed him to oil dependence, how NuvoMedia taught him about the pace of battery improvement, and why a software mindset helped Tesla out-innovate incumbents. Now at Spero Ventures, Marc backs founders building solutions that are both economically compelling and environmentally vital, and explains why, to him, EVs have already won.Episode recorded on Aug 12, 2025 (Published on Sept 9, 2025)In this episode, we cover: [05:58] Marc's experience fixing software projects in Saudi Arabia[07:06] Why TELO's compact electric pickup makes sense[09:09] Marc's Star Trek optimism versus Blade Runner dystopia[10:29] On founding NuvoMedia and the first e-book readers[17:40] Brainstorming EVs after the dot-com collapse[20:25] Prius demand proves customers value efficiency[22:18] Reducing oil dependence as national security[24:46] Roadster powered by 7,000 laptop lithium-ion cells[30:28] The Tesla launch playbook[32:14] Acceleration as the hook for high-end EV buyers[37:20] Early interactions with Elon Musk at SpaceX office[40:11] Lessons from early Roadster builds[43:36] Vertical integration only where it truly differentiates[48:15] Why EVs are inevitable[50:30] Marc's thoughts on Tesla today Enjoyed this episode?

大主播：Flora（一席老师） 小主播：Sofia（一席学生）01. China Holds V-Day Commemoration中国举办庆祝反法西斯战争胜利80周年纪念活动September 3, 2025 [Photo/CGTN]2025年9月3号，中国环球电视网CGTN发布了一条标题为China Holds V-Day Commemoration的新闻。hold这个词用的很地道。在英文中：举办一场活动的“举办”就可以用hold。V-Day其实是Victory Day的缩写，也就是胜利日，在这里指“中国人民抗日战争暨反法西斯战争胜利80周年纪念日”。commemoration (读音/kəˌmeməˈreɪʃn/) ，这个词看起来很难，其实就三部分：前缀com-，词根memor和后缀-tion。我们一起来看一下：其中，前缀com-表示“和……一起”，例如community（读音/kəˈmjuːnəti/）意思是“社区”，其实就是大家一起住的地方。词根memor和“记忆”相关，比如memory（读音/ˈmeməri/），意思是回忆、记忆。commemor就是大家一起回忆、纪念，加上一个名词后缀-tion，就变成了commemoration，意思是“纪念活动”。中间这个字母“a”只是起发音上的连接作用。所以，V-Day commemoration在这里是指中国人民抗日战争暨反法西斯战争胜利80周年纪念活动。那新闻标题China Holds V-Day Commemoration的意思就是中国举办庆祝反法西斯战争胜利80周年纪念活动。⏩Language Note2025年9月3日，中国在天安门广场举行了阅兵仪式。值得注意的是，在中国的英文新闻网站报道里，“阅兵”一词几乎都是用的V-Day parade，而外媒一般都会用military parade（军事游行）。新闻来源：CGTN02. Putin: Russia will Reciprocate Visa-free Policy for Chinese普京：俄将对等实施对华免签政策September 5, 2025 [Photo/Agencies]2025年9月5号，中国环球电视网CGTN发布了一条标题为Putin: Russia will Reciprocate Visa-free Policy for Chinese的新闻。Putin是指现任俄罗斯总统普京。在新闻标题中，人名Putin后边直接加了冒号，这是一个英文新闻标题的固定用法，表示后面这句话是这个人的观点；它就等于Putin said（普京说）。那Putin到底说什么了呢？Putin said, Russia will reciprocate.Russia（读音/ˈrʌʃə/）是俄国的意思。reciprocate（读音/rɪˈsɪprəkeɪt/）意思是“回报”，在政治和外交新闻中会经常见到。首先，它的前缀re-在英文单词中很常见，是“往回”的意思。其次，recipro的“pro”表示“向前”（forward），再加上动词后缀-cate，就变成了reciprocate。别人向前给你的好处你再给回去，就是“回报”。所以reciprocate的意思就是“回报，或者两国之间互惠互利”。回报什么呢？Visa-free policy，我们可以把这个词组拆开来看。free大家很熟悉，就是免费的意思，那么“...free”就是“免掉……”。visa（读音/ˈviːzə/）是签证的意思。policy（读音/ˈpɑːləsi/）是政策。那么合起来visa-free policy，意思就是“免签政策”。接下来，我们再回看新闻标题——reciprocate visa-free policy。reciprocate这个词在这里用的很妙。之所以用reciprocate，是因为在这条新闻报道之前，中国宣布试行对俄罗斯免签政策；在这个基础上，俄罗斯总统普京表态要回报我们的免签政策，所以才用reciprocate一词。总的来看，新闻标题Putin: Russia will Reciprocate Visa-free Policy for Chinese就可以翻译为——普京：俄将对等实施对华免签政策。新闻来源：CGTN03. SpaceX Launches 24 Starlink Satellites to Orbit from CaliforniaSpaceX从加利福尼亚州发射24颗星链卫星进入轨道August 30, 2025 [Photo/SpaceX]2025年8月30号，Space X（马斯克创立的航天公司）发布了一条标题为SpaceX Launches 24 Starlink Satellites to Orbit from California的新闻。从标题中我们可以直接得知，这条新闻是在说SpaceX 做了一件事——launches 24 Starlink satellites to orbit。launch（读音/lɔ: ntʃ/）是指“发射，把什么东西送上太空”。It means to send something into the space.Starlink 看起来生僻，实则简单。Star是星星，link是链路。那starlink就是“星链”。satellite（读音/ˈsætəlaɪt/）是“卫星”的意思，在科技领域非常常见。例如，satellite TV就是卫星电视。orbit（读音/ˈɔ: rbɪt/）是“轨道”的意思。所以，“lanuch Starlink satellites to orbit”就是“发射星链卫星进入轨道”的意思。它是从哪发射的呢？From California，是从加利福尼亚州发射的。California（读音/ˌkæləˈfɔ: rniə/），加利福尼亚州（美国西部太平洋沿岸的一个州）。SpaceX Launches 24 Starlink Satellites to Orbit from California意思就是SpaceX 从加利福尼亚州发射24颗星链卫星进入轨道。新闻来源：SpaceX04. Young Children Diagnosed with ADHD are Often Prescribed Medication too Quickly, Study Finds研究发现，被诊断患有多动症的幼儿往往被过快开药治疗September 2, 2025 [Photo/CBS News]这是一条来自CBS哥伦比亚广播公司在医疗领域的新闻标题：Young Children Diagnosed with ADHD are Often Prescribed Medication too Quickly, Study Finds这条新闻中主语是young children（小孩子）。那是什么样的小孩子呢？Young children diagnosed with ADHD.ADHD是注意缺陷与多动障碍，就是我们俗称的多动症。diagnose（读音/ˌdaɪəɡˈnoʊs /）是诊断病症的意思，那diagnosed with就是“被确诊患有……疾病”。所以，Young children diagnosed with ADHD就是指“患有多动症的儿童”。我们继续往下看，“are often prescribed medication too quickly”。prescribe（读音/prɪˈskraɪb/）是“开药方、开处方”的意思，“are prescribed medication”就是被动语态——被开药治疗。它的名词形式常出现在药瓶上：Prescription（读音/prɪˈskrɪpʃ(ə)n/）处方药。所以，“are often prescribed medication too quickly”就是指“往往被过快开药治疗”。最后，新闻标题里补充了study finds，意思是“研究发现”。study 除了有学习的意思之外，还可以被翻译为“研究、调查”。整合来看，Young Children Diagnosed with ADHD are Often Prescribed Medication too Quickly, Study Finds 就可以被翻译为——研究发现：被诊断患有多动症的幼儿往往被过快开药治疗。新闻来源：CBS News05. Disney to Pay $10 million to Settle FTC Lawsuit over Collecting Kid's Data迪士尼将支付1000万美元解决联邦贸易委员会关于收集儿童数据的诉讼September 2, 2025 [Photo/ Los Angeles Times]今天的最后一条标题是Disney to Pay $10 million to Settle FTC Lawsuit over Collecting Kid's Data。看完标题，你也许会疑惑：Disney to Pay $10 million，这里为什么没有谓语动词呢？其实这种结构在新闻标题里经常出现，“主语+ to +动词”，表示“将要做某事”。所以“to pay”就等于“be going to pay”。那标题里“Disney to pay $10 million”就是说“迪士尼将要支付1000万美元”。我们继续看，迪士尼将要支付1000万美元干什么呢？To settle FTC lawsuit.settle（读音/ˈset(ə)l/），意思是“解决、结束”。FTC 是美国联邦委员会的缩写。lawsuit（读音/ˈlɔ: su: t/）是“诉讼案件”的意思。所以to settle FTC lawsuit，就是为了解决被FTC起诉的诉讼案件。那么是关于什么的诉讼案件呢？Over collecting kid's data，收集儿童的数据。当然采取的是一种非法途径。Disney to Pay $10 million to Settle FTC Lawsuit over Collecting Kid's Data就是说迪士尼将支付1000万美元以解决因收集儿童数据而被FTC起诉的案件。新闻来源：CBS NewsRead the world, expand your view! 英语读世界，热点拓视野！每周二晚8点我们不见不散！下期见喽！收听方式《儿童视界周刊》将在：微信公众号、苹果播客、喜马拉雅、网易云、小宇宙等平台同步更新。别忘了订阅我们的节目哦！

US equities were higher in uneventful Monday trading, with the Dow Jones, S&P500, and Nasdaq finishing up 25bps, 21bps, and 45bps respectively. Upside was limited and trading very rangebound, though the Nasdaq still set a fresh record close. Data from the NY Fed showed 1-year inflation expectations up 10bps m/m to 3.2%; noted job replacement/rehiring optimism lowest since June of 2013. Echostar finished up nearly 20% on a deal to sell AWS-4 and H-block spectrum licenses to SpaceX for around $17B in cash and stock.

00:00:00 – Storms, Sleep & Studio Power Mike opens with an eight-hour power outage recap, generator logistics, and a running gag about terrible sleep (“maybe aliens”), setting a punchy, sleep-deprived mood. 00:10:00 – Skinwalker Ranch: The “Bubble” Returns Season recap kicks off: the ranch's 200-meter-wide “bubble” over the Triangle scrambles GPS, knocks out electronics, and throws radiation spikes; lidar suggests a defined volume. 00:20:00 – Eyes in the Sky: A Daily Satellite Pass The team partners with a SpaceX integrator to loft a dedicated smallsat that will pass the ranch daily, augmenting drones, rockets, and choppers in the hunt for energy anomalies and UAPs. 00:30:00 – Mesa Mystery: 1960s Dig, Ceramics & Kecksburg A weird manufactured “ceramic” found ~200 feet inside the mesa behaves like a superconductor; a 1964 coin hints the site was dug decades ago. Mike ties it to the 1965 Kecksburg “acorn” and a wider 60s test program. 00:40:00 – Operation… Brain Fog? Detour into historic U.S. Army aerosol tests (San Francisco, St. Louis rooftops), used to argue military secrecy isn't unprecedented; show phones open; YouTube recording hiccups noted. 00:50:00 – Portals, GPS Glitches & Remote Viewers Three big frameworks for Skinwalker: interdimensional/“portal,” trickster intelligence, and covert tech. Reported GPS oddities, “gateways under the mesa,” and remote viewers' sketches feed the theories. 01:00:00 – The Drone That Mutilates Cattle Remote-viewing thread lands on a robotic, possibly interdimensional—but military-linked—“drone” behind cattle mutilations. Wild, but on-brand for the ranch. 01:10:00 – Doomscrolling… on the Throne News riff: celebrity asides lead to a study on phone use in the bathroom and hemorrhoids; the crew roasts toilet-time doomscrolling culture. 01:20:00 – “Smart” Thermostats, Dumb Idea? (Ohio) A proposed Ohio peak-demand bill could let utilities nudge your thermostat and cycle appliances. Spirited rant about smart meters, heat waves, and control vs. reliability. 01:30:00 – Annabelle & A Death on Tour Paranormal investigator's fatal heart attack while touring with the Annabelle doll sparks a talk about curses and how “dark forces” might push back. 01:40:00 – Breakdancing Against Property Taxes Viral clip: a New Jersey candidate breakdances at a town meeting to protest tax hikes. The guys debate property taxes, fixed incomes, and optics—then keep chuckling at the moves. 01:50:00 – “Even the Experts Got Phished” At Singapore's anti-fraud confab, a QR “gotcha” snares attendees; tangent into Southeast Asian scam compounds, Facebook Marketplace headaches, and hygiene tips for digital life. 02:00:00 – AI ‘Slop' & The Human Touch Segment on freelancers fixing botched AI logos and copy; Mike's rant about a friend's AI-generated article that read like “wall-to-wall trash” underscores why craft still matters. 02:10:00 – Late-Night Stream, Early-Morning Blackout After-show vibes: Mike recalls a midnight stream that died in a wide local power outage—no clear cause from the utility—then winds down for the week.   Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research ▀▄▀▄▀ CONTACT LINKS ▀▄▀▄▀ ► Phone: 614-388-9109 ► Skype: ourbigdumbmouth ► Website: http://obdmpod.com ► Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/obdmpod ► Full Videos at Odysee: https://odysee.com/@obdm:0 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/obdmpod ► Instagram: obdmpod ► Email: ourbigdumbmouth at gmail ► RSS: http://ourbigdumbmouth.libsyn.com/rss ► iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/our-big-dumb-mouth/id261189509?mt=2
