The World Cup has kicked off, with three red cards and a win for co-hosts Mexico while the USA face Paraguay later, but President Donald Trump is set not to attend America's opening game. Before a ball was even kicked, this tournament wasn't short of controversies, from strict border controls and eye-watering ticket prices to the prospect of two countries who are at war with each other playing a game of football. So, has the beautiful game's biggest tournament become impossible to separate from global politics? Is this simply the reality of staging a World Cup across borders in an increasingly divided world - or are the doubters right that this World Cup could be spoiled by the drama off the pitch?On this episode of The Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy was joined by our sports reporter Jordan Jarrett-Bryan, superfan Billy The Bee who is in Mexico right now and will head to America to follow England's games and journalist Marcela Mora y Araujo.

Fire up the grill and grab a fresh pistachio muffin, because the What's on Your Mind show is broadcasting live from the Petro Serve USA station in beautiful Harwood, North Dakota. Host Scott kicks off a packed Friday Talk Radio Town Hall with U.S. Senator Kevin Kramer, diving headfirst into the high-stakes chess match with Iran, the real motives keeping the Strait of Hormuz tight, and whether it's time to "finish the job". Scott also gets remarkably candid about his recent travels to Norway, sparking an evolutionary look at America's food supply and the growing "Make America Healthy Again" movement. Later in the hour, the studio turns into an international stage. We sit down with four legal Persian-Iranian student and employment visa holders who share harrowing, first-hand accounts of the murderous regime back home, detailing the absolute gravity of public executions, internet blackouts, and the unintended fallout of the administration's recent sweeping visa pause. Scott gives a passionate call to action, offering listeners the exact blueprint to bypass the gatekeepers and let their voices be heard in Congress. Plus, we recap world-class insights from the Williston Basin Petroleum Conference with American Petroleum Institute CEO Mike Sommers, who lays out why AI, natural gas, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum are the key trifecta to winning the global tech race against China. Finally, we wrap up with an inspiring "Feel Good Friday" segment featuring Tracy Allen, founder of Amistad Worldwide, to explore how a grassroots North Dakota charity is rescuing castaway orphans and abandoned widows in India and Nepal through the power of clean water and local sewing centers. Standout Moments & Timestamps [00:01:25] Bullying the Globe for 50 Years: Senator Kevin Kramer breaks down the fundamental challenges of negotiating with a regime whose soldiers value dying more than living, exploring Trump's refusal to sign a weak, Obama-style nuclear clock-runner. [00:03:55] A Hooligan's Message to the Senate: Live at the pump, a decorated Air National Guard veteran from the "Hooligans" commands the mic, urging Senator Kramer to let the military finish the job for the North Dakota service members who paid in blood. [00:05:00] Squeezing the Pillows of Harwood: Scott breaks multi-tasking protocol to rave about the locally-sourced John & Wayne burgers and Petro Serve's famous daily-baked buns that are literally "as soft as a pillow".

Live from the exhibit floor of the Williston Basin Petroleum Conference in beautiful Bismarck, North Dakota, this episode kicks off a massive three-day broadcast celebrating 75 years of the historic Bakken play. Host Scott Hennen balances his jet lag from a recent trip to Norway with full-throttle interviews featuring the absolute heaviest hitters in global energy, aerospace technology, and state legislation. First, Bernie Bourgeois from Chevron details the multi-billion-dollar acquisition of Hess and breaks down how cutting-edge "chemical EOR" literally washes subterranean rock to maximize American energy prosperity. Then, legendary local public servant Lynn Helms uses a pizza analogy to explain why the U.S. is barely on "first base" when it comes to oil recovery. State Representative Mike Nathy takes us inside the legislative trenches to expose the real economic data surrounding data centers and look ahead to a critical upcoming Republican primary. Finally, we talk to UND aviation graduate Grayson Miller about real-world life-and-death drone warfare, tracking how elite Ukrainian "Spider Web" drone swarms managed to set the Russian military back by multiple decades.

[43:42] Washing the Subterranean Stone: Bourgeois delivers a fascinating technical breakdown of Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), detailing how specialized solvents act just like hand soap to alter rock characteristics and make oil more "slippery". [44:11] Unconventional Permeability: A masterclass in geology as Bernie describes tight rock unconventional formations, explaining that the microscopic pore spaces in shale are less permeable than a kitchen granite countertop. [44:31] The Emerging Argentine Frontier: Chevron's shale general manager maps out the world's top shale assets, crowning West Texas's Permian Basin a behemoth while identifying Argentina as the next massive global resource destination. [45:34] Seven Slices of Pizza: Former Director of Mineral Resources Lynn Helms stuns the hosts by revealing that current technology has only extracted a meager 15% of the oil trapped in the Bakken and Three Forks formations—declaring that nobody would buy a pizza, eat one slice, and throw the rest away. [45:54] Geological Records vs. Extinction Climate: Helms cuts through standard political rhetoric to discuss real geological history, noting that the Earth's climate has constantly shifted across millennia and tracking how special interest groups managed to weaponize the education…

It's never funny when a worker is injured on the job, but some cases do raise eyebrows. In their annual look into some “unusual” Workers' Comp cases, Jud and Alan uncover some incidents that challenged the system, some by just being so weird. Where did my ladder go? A worker on a rooftop was stuck when others removed the ladder and left the job. Desperate to get down, he jumped, suffering back and foot injuries. Is the worker to be blamed for intentionally jumping, or was he left with no choice? The falling clipboard case. From the Supreme Court of Idaho, a helicopter pilot died in a crash when a passenger dropped a clipboard that struck the tail rotor and damaged it. Who's liable? What's an accident, and where does civil liability intersect with Workers' Comp? A tryst in France, during a work trip, and the ensuing heart attack?

Rabobank's Head of Research for South America, Andy Duff, discusses the impact of rising diesel prices on sugar, grain, and soybean production. As Brazil relies heavily on long‑distance truck transport to move agricultural products inland, logistics costs can negatively impact Brazilian farm margins. Sugar prices have been on a roller-coaster ride in recent weeks, and Andy explains why the high probability of an El Niño event is a key price driver to watch.

“Mommy and daddy would always bring home boring notebooks, pens, and chargers with company names on them, but that would just go in the trash. But why not stuffies? You never throw stuffies away.” Quincy Fuller is 8 and already delivering that line like he spent too much time in pitch meetings. He and his 10-year-old brother, Jackson, are co-CEOs of Stuffers, a family-run business that makes custom stuffies, or plush toys, for corporate swag. Their customers include companies like Reddit and marketing agency New Engen. Their office is their play room. Their design team includes an AI model. Their first-year revenue: $100,000. That makes the Fuller siblings a case study for the "AI-native" generation, one where the gap between a child's imagination and the finished product has effectively vanished. In previous decades, kids' entrepreneurship was limited by what they could do physically. Delivering newspapers. Squeezing lemons for lemonade. Mowing lawns. But with AI, the internet, and parents handling the adult work, the gap between a kid's idea and a manufacturable product has dramatically narrowed.

The U.S. blockade of Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz is aimed at squeezing Iran's economy by millions in daily oil imports and exports. As the blockade continues, the State Department hosted the first round of negotiations between Israel and Lebanon as senior Hezbollah officials announced they will not abide by any agreements made in the negotiations. Meanwhile, Pakistan has proposed hosting a second round of U.S.-Iran talks in Islamabad this week, just ahead of the current ceasefire expiring. FOX's John Saucier speaks with Behnam Ben Taleblu, Senior Fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies and Senior Director of FDD's Iran program, who says the actions taken in the Strait have been a possible bargaining tool against Tehran for a while, but only now has been a real option.

Article text: David Stokes Was Right: Property Tax Caps Are Squeezing Local Budgets Nationwide By Patrick Tuohey Property tax relief has become a rallying cry for state policymakers across the country. Frustration over rising home values and the cost of living has driven lawmakers in states including Indiana, Ohio, and Wyoming to enact sweeping property tax cuts in recent sessions. But while these measures may look attractive on the campaign trail, they are already putting real strain on local governments that depend on property taxes to fund schools, public safety, and other essential services. An article in the publication Governing titled “State Property Tax Relief Pushes Local Budgets to the Brink” highlights this emerging dynamic. Lawmakers in several states have pursued homeowner tax credits, rate caps, or other limitations without fully compensating counties, cities, and school districts for the revenue they lose. The result? Significant budget shortfalls, belt-tightening by local governments, and even more political pressure from local leaders to revisit state legislation cutting their revenue. These developments matter to Missouri because they illustrate the unintended consequences of well-meaning tax cuts. As my colleague David Stokes has written in testimony before the Missouri Legislature, Missouri depends on property taxes to fund local services efficiently, and ill-designed state interventions can do more harm than good. Stokes emphasized that “Missouri's property assessment and tax system needs reforms, but efforts to reduce it dramatically or eliminate it entirely go too far,” and that the state should not trade one revenue problem for another by hollowing out the tax base localities rely on. What's happening outside of Missouri mirrors Stokes' concerns. In Indiana, a roughly $1.2 billion homeowner tax relief package enacted in 2025 will cost local governments an estimated $1.5 billion over three years, forcing many towns and counties to cut services or revise budgets mid-cycle. Wyoming's 25 percent cut on assessed home value for tax purposes similarly leaves schools—which receive roughly 70 percent of property tax revenue—scrambling to balance their books. Stokes has warned that limiting property tax growth without careful policy design reduces the property tax base, shifting the burden to other, more distortionary taxes. He argues that property taxes—particularly on land and real estate—are among the least harmful taxes to economic growth compared with income or sales taxes. Wholesale caps or freezes discourage local fiscal responsibility. Missouri's recent property tax changes—including the creation of “zero percent” and “five percent” counties where valuations can't drive tax increases without voter approval—reflect a similar temptation to cut taxes without addressing the broader revenue implications. Stokes has noted that such approaches may do little to improve fairness while shrinking the tax base that supports schools and local services. If policymakers in the Show-Me State pay attention to the experience of other states, they'll proceed with caution. Cutting property taxes without sustainable alternate revenue exacerbates budget stress for counties and schools and shifts costs to taxes that are more damaging to growth, such as income or sales taxes. Ensuring that relief targets those most in need—as opposed to broad caps that change how local governments fund core services—preserves local autonomy and avoids the fiscal cliff other states are now confronting. Missouri's leaders should focus on reforms that improve fairness and economic efficiency—not simply reducing bills at the expense of services Missourians value. Produced by Show-Me Opportunity

This episode continues the discussion of the melachah of squeezing (sechita) on Shabbos, focusing on practical halachic applications.The shiur examines the dispute regarding removing or replacing a cloth stopper in a wine barrel when liquid will inevitably be squeezed out. Even if the result is unintended and undesirable, some opinions prohibit it because the squeezing is inevitable, while others are lenient. The widespread custom follows the lenient view under specific conditions, particularly when the stopper extends beyond the cloth and no container is placed underneath to collect the liquid.A key distinction is made between different liquids. With wine and other beverages (besides water), the concern is extraction (similar to squeezing grapes or olives). With water, however, squeezing cloth may involve the prohibition of laundering, which is more stringent. Some authorities treat white wine like water in this regard.The episode then explores practical modern applications:Cleaning spilled drinks from a tablecloth without forceful squeezingThe rabbinic prohibition of squeezing hair after bathingThe permissibility debate regarding using a wet toothbrush (depending on bristle spacing)Drying with a towel after washing or bathing, which is generally permitted when done normally and without intent to squeeze
This episode continues the laws of squeezing (Sechitah) on Shabbos, focusing on practical and nuanced cases. We clarify the difference between passive melting (like placing ice into a drink, which is permitted) and actively causing melting or squeezing, which may be prohibited.Key topics include:Urinating on snow: Some authorities permit it since it resembles trampling snow, while others are stringent because the melting is inevitable and directly caused.Spreading cloth over a barrel: Prohibited if it may become wet and lead to squeezing (a form of laundering). If the cloth is designated for that purpose, it may be permitted.Stuffing material into a flask opening: Forbidden due to inevitable squeezing, which can involve either laundering or extracting liquid (similar to threshing).Using a sponge: Not allowed unless it has a handle, reducing direct squeezing.Plugging a barrel hole with cloth: Debate over whether an inevitable but undesired squeezing (Psik Reisha d'lo nicha lei) is permitted. Some allow it when no benefit is gained; others prohibit it rabbinically.The shiur highlights a central principle: when an outcome is inevitable but unwanted, it may still be rabbinically prohibited on Shabbos—even without direct benefit.
This episode explores the laws of extracting liquids on Shabbos, focusing on the distinction between different food categories. Olives and grapes are most restricted because they are primarily grown for juice, while most other fruits are generally permitted to squeeze unless commonly used for juicing in a given locale. A key principle is the difference between a food's natural internal moisture (considered part of the food) and externally absorbed liquids from cooking or pickling, which are more restricted.The discussion then shifts from fruits and vegetables to fish, where squeezing out absorbed external liquid is prohibited, but natural internal moisture may be permitted. The podcast continues with the laws of crushing snow and ice: actively crushing to produce water is rabbinically prohibited, but allowing ice or snow to melt on its own—especially when placed into an existing drink—is permitted. Practical extensions include hand-washing with soap, use of liquid soap, breaking surface ice to access water, walking on snow, and handling salt water mixtures. The episode emphasizes intent, direct action versus indirect results, and rabbinic safeguards designed to prevent squeezing produce for drinkable juice.

Hey GIGI kids, Today we have a beautiful Bible story about a woman called Dorcas - you can find her story in the Bible in Acts 9:39-42. Here is a sneak peek.... Days passed, and Cyrus and his mother waited anxiously for Dorcas to send word that she had completed the dress. But the only news they got was that Dorcas was very sick. "Oh, no!" Cyrus' mother sobbed. "Poor Dorcas! She has done so much to help everyone in this village; there must be something we can do to help her." Cyrus and his mother walked through the city to Dorcas' house so that they could cheer her up with kind words and some flowers that Cyrus had picked from the garden. When they reached the house, Cyrus saw that Dorcas' small bedroom was already crowded with local people who had come to visit her and pray for her. Squeezing into the house, they found a spot where they could see Dorcas. She was lying very still on her bed. Her skin was burning up with fever, and she let out a dreadful cough. Her face looked thin and pale, and Cyrus could tell that she was very sick indeed. What happened next? To find out, find a comfortable spot and listen to the episode. _____________________________________________________ Story by: Ashlee Price READ STORY ON THE BLOG VISIT OUR WEBSITES SHOP OUR BOOKS SHOP OUR AUDIOBOOKS Special effect editing: James Wagner Music credit: http://www.purple-planet.com/ Email us: stories4gigi@gmail.com Write to us: GIGI KIDS STORIES PO BOX 6505 Upper Mt Gravatt Queensland Australia 4122

In this conversation, Robin reflects on what it means to stay fully alive at every stage of life—curious, engaged, and open to growth. She shares how her early exposure to aging and mortality shaped her drive to “squeeze every drop of juice out of life,” and how dance, spirituality, and improv acting continue to teach her the art of balance between strength and softness. From her work in real estate to her spiritual direction practice, Robin sees every encounter as an opportunity to notice grace and choose joy over fleeting happiness. Her message is a reminder that purpose doesn't fade with age—it deepens when we keep showing up, keep learning, and keep finding the sacred in the everyday.Connect with Robin Kencel:WebsiteInstagramLinkedInYouTubeFacebookLet's Connect:WebsiteInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Find out how to improve blood sugar control and stop making common blood sugar mistakes! In this video, we'll cover 13 blood sugar mistakes to avoid, along with the best blood sugar management tips for healthy blood sugar levels. 0:00 Introduction: Stop making blood sugar mistakes!0:25 High blood sugar explained2:41 Insulin resistance and diabetes5:47 Common blood sugar regulation mistakes 12:22 How to lower blood sugar naturally14:05 More blood sugar management tips Did you know that all of the blood in your body should only contain a single teaspoon of sugar? Our bodies tightly regulate the amount of sugar in our blood at any given time. If you have prediabetes, that number rises to 1.5 teaspoons. With diabetes, the blood contains 2 teaspoons of sugar. The average person consumes between 50 and 100 teaspoons of sugar every day. Insulin removes the sugar from your blood and converts it to fat or stored sugar in the liver and muscles. The body only needs a tiny amount of sugar (which the liver can make on its own), so we don't actually need to consume any sugar at all. Chronic excessive sugar consumption can lead to the development of insulin resistance, which is at the root of many chronic diseases.Improve blood sugar control by avoiding these common mistakes when testing your blood sugar. 1. Not washing your hands2. Using alcohol wipes incorrectly 3. Using expired strips4. Hot sauna or cold plunge before testing5. Tylenol usage6. Taking vitamin C and other supplements 7. Squeezing fingers8. Using different fingers 9. Using continuous glucose monitors 10. Testing at high altitudes11. Drinking coffee 12. Checking glucose in the morning 13. DehydrationAn A1C test measures the average blood sugar over a period of 3 months. Several factors, including ethnicity, anemia, and diet, can affect these results. The liver is at the root of the problem when it comes to type 2 diabetes. Fortunately, a low-carb diet with intermittent fasting can quickly eliminate liver fat and correct insulin resistance and diabetes.To further support healthy blood sugar levels, try the following:•Consistent exercise •Apple cider vinegar diluted in water before meals•Morning walks•Berberine •Get plenty of sleep•Reduce stress levels•Increase sunlight exposureDr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

The fellas sat down with former NFL long snapper, Vanderbilt grad, PhD candidate, and full-time force of nature, Andrew East. Dave kicks things off by recounting his extremely awkward cornhole tournament experience, a moment of social anxiety where he suddenly found himself in a new "gauntlet" of gigantic, ripped athletes.Andrew then dives deep into the absurdity of competing on Special Forces: World's Toughest Test alongside his Olympic gold medalist wife, Shawn Johnson. He reveals the terror of backing out of shrinking tunnels and the grueling 15-hour interrogation where they were put in stress positions while listening to "pigs getting slaughtered."Andrew shares why the zero-to-one jump was the hardest identity shift, leading him and Shawn to intensive counseling after having their third child. Plus, hear Andrew's "free-range parenting" philosophy and why elite athletes often adopt a "relaxed posture" toward sports. It's a rollercoaster ride from awkward cornhole to the torture chamber!
