We hebben er lang op moeten wachten, maar het is eindelijk zover: er ligt een deal tussen de VS en de EU. Wat begon als een golftripje van Donald Trump naar Schotland eindigde in top-overleg met Ursula von der Leyen. Samen vertelden ze met een glimlach wat de uitkomst van de onderhandelingen is. Maar of beleggers diezelfde glimlach moeten hebben, dat is nog maar de vraag. Want in het rijtje aan eisen en voorwaarden staan vooral voordelen voor de VS. Heeft Europa zichzelf gered van een doemscenario, of heeft het overhaast een deal willen bereiken? Die vraag beantwoorden we deze aflevering voor je. Dan hoor je ook uitgebreid wie er in de huidige deal de grote winnaars en verliezers zijn. En wat er in de komende maanden nog kan gaan veranderen. Daarnaast hebben we het ook over een andere mega-deal. Twee bedrijven die er slecht voorstaan bundelen de krachten, om allebei hun eigen concurrenten weer aan te kunnen. Tesla en Samsung gaan voor 16,5 miljard dollar met elkaar in zee. Tesla betaalt daarmee een groot deel van een investering in een nieuwe chipfabriek van Samsung terug. En Samsung belooft de volgende generatie AI-chips voor Tesla te maken. En we vertellen je over de foute inschatting van Heineken. Dat presenteert met trots de halfjaarcijfers, maar dondert naar beneden op de beurs. Beleggers maken zich zorgen om de dalende verkoopvolumes. Waarom heeft de topman die zorgen niet?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Melvyn Bragg and guests explore dragons, literally and symbolically potent creatures that have appeared in many different guises in countries and cultures around the world. Sometimes compared to snakes, alligators, lions and even dinosaurs, dragons have appeared on clay tablets in ancient Mesopotamia, in the Chinese zodiac, in the guise of the devil in Christian religious texts and in the national symbolism of the countries of England and Wales. They are often portrayed as terrifying but sometimes appear as sacred and even benign creatures, and they continue to populate our cultural fantasies through blockbuster films, TV series and children's books.

Most health care providers understand the importance of goals-of-care conversations in aligning treatment plans with patients' goals, especially for those with serious medical problems. And yet, these discussions often either don't happen or at least don't get documented. How can we do better? In today's podcast, we sit down with Ira Byock, Chris Dale, and Matthew Gonzales to discuss a multi-year healthcare system-wide goals of care implementation project within the Providence Health Care System. Spanning 51 hospitals, this initiative was recently described in NEJM Catalyst, showing truly impressive results, including an increase from 7% to 85% in goals of care conversation documentation for patients who were in an ICU for 5 or more days. How did they achieve this?  Our guests will share insights into the project's inception and the strategies that drove its success, including: Organizational Alignment: Integrating GOC documentation into the health system's mission, vision, and strategic objectives. Clinical Leadership Partnership: Collaborating with clinical leaders to establish robust quality standards and metrics. Ease of Documentation: Upgrading the electronic health record (EHR) system to streamline the documentation and retrieval of GOC conversations. Communication Training: Conducting workshops based on the Serious Illness Conversation Guide to equip clinicians with the skills needed for impactful GOC conversations. Join us as we explore how these strategies were implemented and learn how you can apply similar approaches in your own healthcare setting.

Jonathan Milan is niet onder de immense druk bezweken. De groenetruidrager moest woensdag het volle pond halen om zijn voorsprong ten opzichte van Tadej Pogačar en slaagde daar wonderwel in. Het is voor hem nu zaak om de komende twee etappes de tussensprint te winnen en daarna de Alpen te overleven. Het klassement staat daarin namelijk op het spel. In de WielerFlits Update blikken we ruimschoots vooruit.WINACTIEDe winactie van vandaag: maak kans op een Lazer Z1 Kineticore TDF-helm van Shimano! Wil jij kansmaken op deze prijs? Speel dan deze Tourzomer mee met de WielerFlits winactie.Etappe zeventien van Bollène naar Valence was een dubbeltje op zijn kant. Door de opgave van Mathieu van der Poel was er echter geen enkele ploeg bij gebaat om het sowieso niet op een massasprint te laten aankomen en dus was de vlucht van de dag al snel als een muis voor de kat. Toch sputterde met name Jonas Abrahamsen fel tegen. Met een ongeziene chasse patat van Wout van Aert als gevolg. Uiteindelijk kwam er in een regenachtig Valence toch een sprint, maar een grote valpartij ontsierde dat flink. Milan bleef buiten schot en deed zo een gouden zaak.Biniam Girmay lijkt vooralsnog het grootste slachtoffer van die valpartij, waar Europees kampioen Tim Merlier na afloop niet over te spreken was. Ondanks dat er slechts tien renners overbleven voor de laatste sprint, zagen we daarin nog wel een opvallend beeld. Kazachs kampioen Yevgeniy Fedorov trok de sprint fors aan voor ploegmaat Davide Ballerini, waarna Fedorov zich liet wegzakken. Hij pikte op een lagere snelheid toch weer in en hinderde daarmee zijn collega's. Een bewuste actie constateren onze verslaggevers Maxim en Youri. Zij roepen op tot een gele kaart.Maar het duo kijkt vooral uit naar de etappe van donderdag. Dan staat de koninginnenrit op het programma van Vif naar de top van Col de la Loze van buitencategorie. In aanloop naar de 26 kilometer lange klim (!) liggen er met de Col du Glandon en de Col de la Madeleine nog eens twee bergen van buitencategorie te wachten. Vluchters lijken kansloos, want onze mannen verwachten dat Visma | Lease a Bike de koers ontzettend hard gaat maken in functie van Jonas Vingegaard. Zij geloven dat ze de Tour kunnen winnen. Hoe dat allemaal zit hoor en zie je in de WF Update!Deze podcast wordt mede-mogelijk gemaakt door Alpecin DMG shampoo en de casual (wieler)kleding van Le Patron.

The Mishnah is a massive, sprawling, and utterly comprehensive canon of Torah law. Spanning 60+ books over 6 Orders, the Mishnah includes all the laws of the Torah. To study it all would take a very long time. To know it all, takes a lifetime. In this podcast, we try to gain an appreciation for the general concepts of Mishnah, beginning in the Order of Planting (Agriculture).– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

He is co-author with Jason Jones of “God, Guns, & the Government.”   John Zmirak's new book: No Second Amendment, No First  by John Zmirak  Available March 19, 2024 Today's Left endlessly preaches the evils of “gun violence." It is a message increasingly echoed from the nation's pulpits, presented as common-sense decency and virtue. Calls for “radical non-violence” are routinely endowed with the imprimatur of religious doctrine.   But what if such teachings were misguided, even damaging? What if the potential of a citizenry to exercise force against violent criminals and tyrannical governments is not just compatible with church teaching, but flows from the very heart of Biblical faith and reason? What if the freedoms we treasure are intimately tied to the power to resist violent coercion?  This is the long-overdue case John Zmirak makes with stunning clarity and conviction in No Second Amendment, No First. A Yale-educated journalist and former college professor, Zmirak shows how the right of self-defense against authoritarian government was affirmed in both the Old and New Testaments, is implied in Natural Law, and has been part of Church tradition over the centuries.   --------------------------------------------------------------------  --------------------------------------------------------------------  Check out our ACU Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/ACUPodcast   HELP ACU SPREAD THE WORD!  Please go to Apple Podcasts and give ACU a 5 star rating.

Since October 2020, Soumya Dinesh has been Managing Director and Co-Founder of Atula Technologies – a Buckinghamshire based business specialising in bespoke software solutions for SMEs. Soumya grew up in the cantonment city of Bengaluru, India and excelled academically. She originally wanted to become a pilot but did not pursue this, instead opting to go to Pondicherry University where she got a master's degree in finance. This enabled Soumya to go on to work with one of the biggest accounting firms in the world.Despite an enjoyable and enriching stint there, she learnt it was not what she wanted to do, surprising many by taking the reins of an at-home flower delivery company based around her parent's flower shop when she was in her early 20s. It was here that Soumya got her first taste of e-commerce, which would later become the foundations of Atula Technologies. “It led to tremendous growth for the florist shop, which was once a single unit on one high street. We were the most well-known florist in India for several years after that because we could deliver across the country with our branding.” The florist business was later sold, Soumya married Dinesh and moved to the UK. She then retrained in IT and worked for Lloyd's TSB and SONY Corporation. At the same time, Soumya decided to start creating her own chocolates, which gradually spiralled into her own business. Her company Cherish Chocolates earned several Great Taste awards and was sold up and down the country but was eventually wound down after 10 years when she decided to focus on family.Several years later, Soumya launched Atula Technologies with Dinesh, bringing their IT knowledge and experience together. Now in its fourth year, Soumya says it is “onward and upward” with plans for growth and success for herself and her clients. “I have a lot to offer and so much to give back.” https://www.linkedin.com/in/soumyadinesh/www.atulatech.com

The nation-states of the greater Middle East are a contentious group, with a long, complicated history and even longer memories. Spanning some 17 countries from Iran in the east to Turkey in the west, including North Africa, the eastern Mediterranean states, and the Arabian peninsula — the region is riven by political, religious, & ethnic conflicts. Yet the music of the Middle East shows a broad similarity of instruments, scales, rhythms and formats that cut across national boundaries and create a kind of super-cultural unity. Today, progressive middle eastern musicians are promoting a non-political form of communication through their music, bringing together traditional and electronic instruments to create a shared experience of beauty and soulfulness. On this transmission of Hearts of Space, another journey in the contemporary Middle Eastern soundscape, on a program called EQUILIBRIUM 2. Music is by MERÇAN DEDE, SYRIANA, DHAFER YOUSSEF, LIAN ENSEMBLE w/DJIVAN GASPARYAN, ALBERTO IGLESIAS, ANOUAR BRAHEM, DAVID PARSONS & JON MARK.

Episode 2.19Walls, Warfare, and WorshipIn Episode 4 of our Ezra/Nehemiah series, we follow the bold return of Nehemiah as he hears of Jerusalem's broken walls and leads a movement of restoration from ruin. Spanning chapters 1–7, this episode traces Nehemiah's heartfelt prayer, strategic leadership, and relentless faith in the face of both external opposition and internal corruption. We explore the teamwork behind the wall's rapid reconstruction, the justice issues Nehemiah confronts among the returned exiles, and how faith-fueled resilience empowered a people to finish their task in just 52 days. Through conflict, reform, and organization, God's hand is clearly seen rebuilding not just a wall—but a nation.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/QD_-BLICe5EMerch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stone⁠License code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com

As long as there have been poets, they have been writing war elegies. In this episode, Mark and Seamus discuss responses to the American Civil War (Walt Whitman), both world wars (W.B. Yeats, Wilfred Owen, Rudyard Kipling, Keith Douglas) and the conflict in Northern Ireland (Michael Longley) to explore the way these very different poems share an ancient legacy. Spanning 160 years and energised by competing ideas of art and war, these soldiers, carers and civilians are united by a need that Mark and Seamus suggest is at the root of poetry, to memorialise the dead in words.

WIVES OF THE ROMANS: 1/8: The Missing Thread: A Women's History of the Ancient World Hardcover – July 30, 2024 by  Daisy Dunn  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Missing-Thread-Womens-History-Ancient/dp/0593299663 Around four thousand years ago, the mysterious Minoans sculpted statues of topless women with snakes slithering on their arms. Over one thousand years later, Sappho wrote great poems of longing and desire. For classicist Daisy Dunn, these women—whether they were simply sitting at their looms at home or participating in the highest echelons of power—were up to something much more interesting than other histories would lead us to believe. Together, these women helped to make antiquity as we know it. In this monumental work, Dunn reconceives our understanding of the ancient world by emphasizing women's roles within it. The Missing Thread never relegates women to the sidelines and is populated with well-known names such as Cleopatra and Agrippina, as well as the likes of Achaemenid consort Atossa and Olympias, a force in Macedon. Spanning three thousand years, the story moves from Minoan Crete to Mycenaean Greece, from Lesbos to Asia Minor, from the Persian Empire to the royal court of Macedonia, and concludes with Rome and its growing empire. The women of antiquity are undeniably woven throughout the fabric of history, and in The Missing Thread they finally take center stage. 1593 ROMAN WOMEN

In this episode of PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf, renowned photographer Dana Lixenberg discusses the power of portraiture and how editorial autonomy enabled her to safeguard the portrayal of individuals featured in her work within marginalized communities. Lixenberg shares the origins of Imperial Courts, her seminal project documenting life in the Los Angeles housing project of the same name, and the deep relationship of trust she built over more than two decades of work there. The conversation also explores her iconic portraits of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls, as well as her poignant book project, The Last Days of Shishmaref, which captures the lives of an Indigenous community on a disappearing Alaskan island. https://grimmgallery.com/artists/42-dana-lixenberg/ https://www.instagram.com/danalixenberg Dana Lixenberg is known for her stripped-down portraits that revel in the elemental characteristics of her subjects. She uses a large-format field camera – a cumbersome tool, which necessitates what the artist refers to as a ‘slow dance' between her and her subjects. The resulting portraits contain an enormous amount of detail and texture, and are as revelatory as a personal encounter. The power of the work arises from its intimacy, compositional rigor and, importantly, the absence of social stereotyping. Lixenberg has been predominantly active in the United States, and her thorough understanding of the country and its society seeps through palpably in her work.  Besides her extensive editorial practice, for which she photographed many cultural icons, she pursues long-term projects with a primary focus on marginalized communities. These projects include Jeffersonville, Indiana (2005), a collection of landscapes and portraits of a small town's homeless population and The Last Days of Shishmaref (2008), which portrays an Inupiaq community on an eroding island off the coast of Alaska. Lixenberg's most extensive body of work to date is Imperial Courts, 1993-2015 (2015), which she begun in the aftermath of the 1992 Rodney King riots. Spanning 22 years, the project tracks the changing shape of an underserved community in Watts, Los Angeles. In contrast to the often one dimensional, sensationalized media coverage of this neighborhood, Lixenberg employs a more subdued and collaborative photographic approach. Like her other projects, Imperial Courts consists of a series of photographs and a publication. Exploring other media for the first time, Lixenberg also included audio recordings and created a three-channel video installation. The project was awarded the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize in 2017 and continues to be exhibited internationally.

12 core reasons why you can trust that the Bible is God'sWord to us. Do you know these 12? Memorize these because you can use them toshare the gospel with unbelievers and doubters. Reason #1 of 12.Diverse perspectives: Written by around 40 authors from different backgrounds — kings, prophets, fishermen, scholars — yet it tells one unified story.Spanning centuries: Compiled over roughly 1,500 years, showing remarkable consistency across time and culture.Different literary styles: Includes poetry, history, law, prophecy, letters, and wisdom literature — all pointing to God's message.Prophecies fulfilled: Earlier books predict things that are fulfilled in later ones, creating a cohesive, supernatural thread.A shared foundation: Jews and Christians have preserved and shared these writings over centuries, shaping law, art, and moral frameworks worldwide.A living book: Millions still read and find meaning in its pages today, despite its ancient origins.

IMAGO DEI—the centrality of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in our Christ Tradition. While traditional depictions of God center on cisgender white male images, we will explore the multiple images of God that we see when we look into the mirror. We are all created in God's image, so God's image includes all of our reflections. We will focus on who we are as followers of Jesus and how we carry on his mission. We will revisit the story of the

Telepylos and Homer's Odyssey In Homer's Odyssey, Telepylos is described as the city of the Laestrygonians, a race of giants who ambush Odysseus and his crew. The vivid depiction includes towering cliffs, a narrow harbor entrance, and dramatic landscapes, suggesting a location of strategic maritime importance. Traditionally dismissed as myth, these detailed descriptions raise the question: could Telepylos have been a real place, its memory preserved through oral storytelling? By analyzing Homeric texts alongside physical data from the region between Malta and Sicily, this study investigates the plausibility of identifying Telepylos as a submerged site.Spanning approximately 80 square kilometers, the site lies at a depth of 250 meters between Sicily and Malta and features striking geometric formations. A central mound, comparable in scale to the Great Pyramid of Giza, and an encircling canal—529 meters wide and 50 meters deep—underscore the engineering sophistication of this ancient settlement. These features suggest a city of immense scale and importance, potentially serving as a waypoint for ancient mariners. Through a recalibration of sea-level models using datasets from EMODnet and GEBCO, this study proposes that the Mediterranean basin, isolated from the Atlantic during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), experienced a localized sea-level drop to approximately -250 meters, exposing vast landscapes suitable for human settlement. This stable plateau, lasting nearly 3,000 years, likely provided the conditions for Telepylos and similar civilizations to thrive before a gradual sea-level rise submerged the city by 8,600 BC. Unlike Atlantis, Telepylos's submersion was not sudden but marked by centuries of encroachment as nature slowly reclaimed the city. The findings challenge conventional paradigms about LGM sea levels and ancient Mediterranean civilizations.André Chaisson is a seasoned civil engineering designer with over 25 years of CAD experience, including five years as a senior designer shaping large-scale infrastructure projects. With a knack for crafting plans and maps—honed through work on urban designs, municipal systems, and bathymetric surveys—he built a career grounded in pragmatism. Yet beneath the surface, a lifelong fascination with the mysteries of the past, from Atlantis to the Great Pyramids, simmered quietly. Self-taught with years of college education, including naval architecture, he's now channeling his skills into a bold new chapter. Already, he's uncovered the lost city of Telepylos, a discovery he's determined to bring to the world's attention. With sights set on revealing Atlantis next, André is on a mission to rewrite the history of humankind. Humble yet driven, he aims to spark a renaissance in archaeology, blending meticulous expertise with an adventurer's heart to inspire future exploration.https://grahamhancock.com/author/andre-chaisson/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

The superstructure bridge deck parts of the River Suir Sustainable Transport Bridge in Waterford, Ireland - designed by Knight Architects in collaboration with Roughan & O'Donovan as lead Engineer and Hardesty & Hanover as M&E Engineer - have now been successfully installed. The 207m-long pedestrian and cycle bridge is a centrepiece of the €200million Waterford North Quays Infrastructure Project, Ireland's largest urban regeneration initiative. Commissioned by Waterford City & County Council and constructed by BAM, the crossing will create a vital active travel connection across the River Suir when it opens to the public in 2026, linking the historic city centre to the Strategic Development Zone (SDZ) at the North Quays. The bridge forms a critical component in unlocking the SDZ's potential for private sector-led regeneration, including new homes, offices, hospitality, and public amenities. Spanning the river with a quiet elegance, the bridge pays tribute to the city's vibrant trading legacy and its deep-rooted connection to the majestic River Suir. The structure's subtle curves and faceted steel superstructure take inspiration from Waterford's celebrated tradition of crystal glassware, while its twin-leaf bascule span - concealed discreetly within the deck - ensures continued navigability of the river for marine traffic. Above each of the feature piers, the bridge deck widens to form generous viewing platforms, furnished with bespoke seating to invite pause and reflection over the Suir and its evolving surroundings. Designed for multi-modal use, the bridge will facilitate pedestrians and cyclists, forming a new section of urban greenway that ultimately links the Waterford to Dungarvan and Waterford to New Ross Greenways. The bridge design is also future proofed to facilitate a future electric shuttle bus connecting the north and south quays. To ensure efficient movement on the bridge coupled with safe transitions at the end, Knight Architects designed a new urban realm at the South Plaza landing site which features an array of surfaces which help intuitively guide pedestrians and cyclists in the right direction. This area activates the waterfront and integrates the area's wider active mobility network, further enhancing the public realm of Ireland's oldest city. In addition to enhancing local transport, the project aligns with Ireland's climate goals by encouraging modal shift and reducing car dependency. Tom Osborne, Director at Knight Architects, says: "This bridge does far more than connect two sides of a river. It connects the past with the future, catalysing the transformation of Ireland's oldest city whilst responding sensitively to its historic cultural and urban context. It represents a bold and forward-looking investment in the city's future and will act as a key enabler for the North Quays development, bringing new homes, jobs and cultural offerings to Waterford. It's been a privilege to help shape a structure that so clearly demonstrates the value of sustainable, people-centred infrastructure."

In this episode, Tony Bell shares how a childhood choice between football and karate sparked a lifelong journey in martial arts. From training under Sensei Virgil Kimmey with his brother Melvin, to competing with the USC Karate Club, Tony reflects on the bonds, battles, and mentors—like Sam Chapman and Ronnie Barkoot—that shaped him. Beyond Karate, he opens up about caring for his elderly parents and the deep values of service, legacy, and tradition. Spanning the 1970s to today, Tony's story is a powerful reminder of why we preserve the past while guiding the future of martial arts.

In this episode, Dr. Robert Do, founder of SGH2 Energy, delves into the company's groundbreaking work in producing carbon-negative H2 from waste and biomass—leveraging a proprietary technology with origins in the NASA space program.

Spanning two searing segments, this broadcast investigates the unsettling intersection of U.S.-China trade talks and covert biological threats. With Howard Lutnick touting progress in negotiations, the commentary challenges this narrative by exposing China's simultaneous bioweapon smuggling attempts, including the recent arrest of a Wuhan researcher carrying invasive roundworms. The host links this to a broader pattern—from the COVID-19 outbreak following Trump's trade deal to agricultural sabotage and rising geopolitical aggression. With support from baffled editorial voices like the New York Post, the broadcast paints a picture of economic delusion, strategic manipulation, and a nation at risk of sleepwalking into disaster.

Throughout his career, artist John Wilson was inspired to capture the faces of his community: Black people who lived in Roxbury. He chose to do figurative paintings, drawings and sculptures, rather than abstract work, because he was determined  that Black people should be seen in the fullness of their humanity. That was the overall theme of his work, which is now in an exhibit at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts – “Witnessing Humanity: The Art of John Wilson.” Callie speaks with a curator and a John Wilson collector to learn more about Wilson's work.
