Russia's Slowing Wartime Economy Pushes Kremlin to Increase Taxes and Fees. Michael Bernstam analyzes Russia's economic stagnation due to war expenditure and shortages, leading the Kremlin to raise taxes, including the VAT, to close the budget gap. Sanctions are biting deep, forcing Russia to offer huge discounts—up to $38 per barrel—to its primary oil cu1900stomers: India, China, and Turkey. Guest: Michael Bernstam.

To help make sense of it all Emile Donovan speaks to distinguished professor emeritus and research director at Massey University, Paul Spoonley.

China's Economic Slump: Export Decline, Policy Failures, and Property Market Stagnation Guests: Anne Stevenson-Yang and Gordon Chang Anne Stevenson-Yang and Gordon Chang discussed the unprecedented slump in China's economic activity, noting cooled investment and slowing industrial output, with exports falling 25% to the US, attributing this long-term decline to the government's 2008 decision to pull back economic reforms and the current 15th Five-Year Plan lacking viable solutions or bailouts for hurting localities, while consumption remains dangerously low (around 38% of GDP) and is expected to shrink further as the government prioritizes technological development and factory production, with the property market collapsing as capital investment, land sales, and unit prices decline, forcing people to hold onto decaying apartments and risking stagnation for decades similar to Japan post-1989, a problem largely self-created due to overcapacity, although other countries like Brazil are also restricting Chinese imports.

In dieser besonderen Folge haben wir erneut einen unserer Pastoren zu Gast: Daniel Siemens. Mit ihm tauchen wir tief in die bewegende Geschichte unserer Heimatgemeinde, der Evangelischen Freikirche Köln (EF Köln), ein. Daniel ist seit der Gründung im Jahr 1976 Teil der Gemeinde und hat jede Phase der Gemeindeentwicklung – Neubeginn, Wachstum, Herausforderungen, Veränderungsprozesse und geistliche Erneuerung – miterlebt und mitgestaltet.Wir sprechen über prägende Momente, mutige Entscheidungen, historische Hintergründe und geistliche Prinzipien, die aus einer Kirche nicht nur eine Organisation, sondern eine gesunde, lebendige Glaubensgemeinschaft machen. Dabei geht es unter anderem um:•⁠ ⁠verfolgte Christen aus der Sowjetunion und ihre erste Erfahrung echter Glaubensfreiheit in Deutschland•⁠ ⁠Pastoren und theologische Prägungen, die Gemeindewachstum behindern und Stagnation erzeugen•⁠ ⁠die Auswirkungen von gesetzlichem Glauben auf eine Kirche und warum Freiheit im Evangelium zentral ist•⁠ ⁠den Unterschied zwischen Tradition und authentisch gelebtem, lebendigem Glauben•⁠ ⁠die Bedeutung eines missionarischen Auftrags für jede Freikirche•⁠ ⁠den Mut, gesetzliche Strukturen loszulassen und geistliche Erneuerung zuzulassen•⁠ ⁠warum Leitung und Verantwortung niemals auf eine einzelne Person konzentriert sein sollten•⁠ ⁠konkrete Prinzipien für eine gesunde, geistlich reife GemeindeentwicklungDiese Episode verbindet ehrliche Rückschau mit mutmachender Perspektive für die Zukunft. Sie spricht Menschen an, die Kirche und Glauben aktiv mitgestalten wollen, aber auch jene, die sich nach Freiheit, Heilung und neuer geistlicher Lebendigkeit sehnen – besonders wenn sie selbst unter gesetzlichen oder einengenden Strukturen leiden.Wenn du es auf dem Herzen hast, kannst du das Projekt finanziell unterstützen (Verwendungszweck „TIG“): https://paypal.me/efkoeln

Der neue FINANCE-Gehaltsreport 2025 ist da! Und er zeigt: Die aktuellen Unsicherheiten und Krisen wirken sich auch auf den Recruiting-Markt und die Gehälter der Corporate-Finance-Spezialisten aus. Doch: „Eine generelle Stagnation der Löhne können wir nicht feststellen“, beobachtet Hays-Manager und Personalexperte Erich Schwinghammer. Allerdings beeinflusst eine deutlich gestiegene Kostensensibilität die Gehälter der Finanzer. „Die Unsicherheiten spielen hier am stärksten hinein“, sagt er weiter. In den Fokus rücken nun vor allem Positionen, die eine wichtige strategische Rolle einnehmen. Aufpassen sollten dafür Finanzer, die strategisch weniger relevante Aufgaben übernehmen: „Es geht darum, Einsparpotentiale zu identifizieren,“ sagt Schwinghammer. Dazu zählen beispielsweise Kosteneffizienzprogramme. „Je wichtiger eine Rolle oder eine Position dafür ist, umso weniger ist sie von diesem Kostendruck betroffen.“ Welche Positionen in der Finanzabteilung derzeit die besten Gehaltsaussichten haben, ob in den nächsten Jahren Gehaltssteigerungen zu erwarten sind, und welchen Herausforderungen sich Unternehmen bei der Besetzung von Finanzpositionen stellen müssen, das und mehr erfahren Sie im neuen FINANCE-TV-Talk. Hinweis: Dieser Talk von FINANCE TV wird präsentiert von Hays.

In this episode, I talk about why hustlers struggle to rest… and why it feels like going backwards, the spiritual and emotional cost of tying progress only to productivity, how God redefines forward movement through alignment, not output, why growth happens in multiple domains… not just work, stillness as strategy, sharpening, and spiritual renewal, how expanding your definition of progress creates deeper fulfillment and more.

Is your Empire feeling less than fresh? Does it feel like the modern world's best days are behind it? Do conquest and global power politics not hit as good as they used to? Welcome to the Age of Stagnation, a time when the fruits of the Industrial Revolution can be enjoyed but not replicated.It's making us all a little crazy, especially world leaders. With us today on the show is Michael Beckley, a political science professor at Tufts University and his career includes stretches at the Pentagon, the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and the RAND Corporation. To hear Beckley tell it, stagnation might not be such a bad thing. If we can avoid repeating the worst mistakes of the 20th century and let go of a “number go up” mind set, then maybe we can all learn to enjoy a long age of stabilization.The diminishing returns of the Industrial RevolutionWinners and losers in the Age of AscentMoore's Law sputters outStabilization isn't so bad. “We're some of the luckiest people who've ever lived.”Shenanigans and shithouseryAI isn't “ready” yetWhy conquest doesn't work anymoreChina as a paper tiger in the age of stabilizationAmerica's unique advantages“Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.” - Mike TysonThe Stagnant OrderI Tried the Robot That's Coming to Live With You.

Russian Economic Stagnation and War Finance. Michael Bernstam confirms that the Russian economy is stagnating, expecting no growth for years due to exhausted resources and reliance on military production. Oil and gas revenues are down significantly due to Western sanctions and high discounts, widening the budget deficit. Russia is increasing taxes, including the VAT, which drives inflation in staples. This economic pain damages the popularity of the war by hurting the low-income population—the primary source of military recruitment. 1951

Die Wirtschaftsweisen legen ihr Jahresgutachten vor. Vermutlich werden sie gemischte Signale senden. Die Warnung vor Stagnation wird wohl eine der wichtigsten Nachrichten in dem Gutachten sein. Kanzler Friedrich Merz bekommt die Zahlen am Vormittag, am Nachmittag folgt die Veröffentlichung. Mit Romanus Otte spricht Gordon Repinski über die Stimmung in der Wirtschaft, die Rolle des EU-Binnenmarktes und die Frage, welche Rolle die Sondervermögen spielen. Im 200-Sekunden-Interview erklärt Tanja Gönner, Hauptgeschäftsführerin des BDI, was Unternehmen jetzt brauchen: verlässliche Energiepreise, schnellere Entscheidungen und eine Politik, die Vertrauen schafft. Sie warnt, dass Entlastungen zu spät wirken. Zum Schluss geht es um den Streit in der Union über das Rentenpaket. Die junge Gruppe und der Arbeitnehmerflügel von CDU / CSU rücken zusammen und stellen sich womöglich gegen den Kanzler. Rasmus Buchsteiner erklärt, warum das zur Machtfrage werden könnte und weshalb der Deutschlandtag der Jungen Union zum Risiko für Merz wird.

Professor Ivette Fuentes makes impossible physics testable, with verified predictions on the Casimir effect and quantum vacuum. Now she's building a "third way" to quantum gravity, a surprisingly simple model that changes both quantum mechanics and relativity instead of forcing one to dominate the other.

Die deutsche Wirtschaft rutscht tiefer in die Stagnation. Immer mehr Unternehmen planen Stellenabbau statt Investitionen. Die Zeit für eine wirtschaftspolitische Trendwende läuft ab.

"Das ist eine Zeit gewesen, in der man auch als Vorsitzender wirklich lernt und begreift, was Einsamkeit bedeutet und, dass es nur sehr wenige Menschen gibt, denen man sich anvertrauen kann", sagt Franz Gasselsberger. Im STANDARD-Podcast CEO mit Gerold Riedmann erinnert sich der Chef der Oberbank an die "Fehde meines Lebens". Fünf Jahre lang befand sich seine Bank in einem komplexen Rechtsstreit mit der Unicredit. Allein seine Anwaltskosten beliefen sich auf sieben Millionen Euro. Heute sieht er die Oberbank auf sichere Beine gestellt. Und auch der heimischen Wirtschaft gehe es trotz Stagnation "besser als es oft medial kommuniziert wird". Einen Grund für das schlechte Bild sei ein Fingerzeigreflex, den heimische Insolvenzen auslösen würden. "Wenn es Probleme gibt und wenn es Insolvenzen gibt, und die gibt's natürlich, dann werden meistens die Konjunktur oder die Standortfaktoren als Grund angeführt. Aber niemand spricht von Managementfehlern." Gasselsberger plädiert im Podcast dafür, die Rolle von Managern stärker zu hinterfragen und auf Erfahrung zu setzen. "Ich sage meinen Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeitern, auch denjenigen, die es nicht hören wollen: ein Mann oder eine Frau bist du erst ab 40. Da zucken sie dann meistens zusammen", meint Gasselsberger. "Das gilt auch für Politiker." Und um ein Unternehmen durch schwierige Zeiten zu führen, müsse man dazu auch das noch wissen: "Nicht der Kunde ist König, sondern der Mitarbeiter und die Mitarbeiterin ist das Wichtigste. Wenn du eine motivierte Belegschaft hast, dann gewinnst du jeden Kampf und jeden Krieg." Um diese zu motivieren brauche es Gespräche und Stabilität. Von ausufernden variablen Gehältern für Manager hält er hingegen nichts. Wie viel Gasselsberger selbst verdient und, wie dieses Interview ausgeht, das hören Sie in dieser Folge von CEO.

Send Me a Message! Good days don't last forever which is why they need to be used wisely. In this episode, I talk about using the times when mood, energy and motivation finally line up to take full advantage by being action-orientated and not just sitting back relaxing. How it's important to prepare for the eventual drop that's coming. Because it's true that as humans we have to endure both the good and the bad days. When my mood is elevated, I find even the most mundane of tasks bearable. Having the motivation and inspiration to clean my room, send the resume, apply for the job, book the appointment, set things in motion. Because when the clouds roll back in, it's a lot easier to cope if you've already taken steps forward. Progress makes the darkness less heavy. Stagnation makes it brutal.This episode is about momentum, not perfection. Action over comfort. Not letting the good days go to waste, so when the tough ones come, the work has been done to ensure the rewards are coming. And then the sun comes back again and sticks around for a bit longer than before.--Follow my journey through the chaos of mental illness and the hard-fought lessons learned along the way.Lived experience is at the heart of this podcast — every episode told through my own lens, with raw honesty and zero filter.This is a genuine and vulnerable account of how multiple psychological disorders have shaped my past and continue to influence my future.Support the showYou can follow me on Instagram: @elliot.t.waters, and the show on Facebook!

In this episode of On The Ball (United WeCast Network), Ric Bucher breaks down the widening gap between American-born NBA stars and their international counterparts — and what it says about player development, discipline, and leadership in today's game.Bucher dives into the latest around Ja Morant, including front-office chatter about his trade value, locker-room issues, and whether the Memphis Grizzlies can still build around him. He compares Ja's stalled maturity and Zion Williamson's lack of evolution to the steady growth and professionalism of Victor Wembanyama, Nikola Jokić, and Giannis Antetokounmpo — stars who treat the game as craft, not performance.Ric also examines why American player development has fallen behind Europe's, how Pat Riley's shift toward international talent reflects a changing NBA, and what the Chicago Bulls' surprising start reveals about teamwork over showmanship.From leadership accountability to the future of U.S. basketball, this episode challenges the culture of “flash over fundamentals” and asks the question: What happened to making American players great again?

What happens when a bartender from New York gets hit by a car, and ends up building a $350 million real estate empire? Jason Yarusi joins The Aspiring Solopreneur to share how that wake-up call sparked his Live 100 mindset, a simple yet powerful framework for breaking patterns, building momentum, and magnifying results. From redefining success to fighting perfectionism, Jason gets real about how self-awareness, consistent action, and gratitude can completely reshape your life and business.FAQs From The ShowWhat exactly is the “Live 100” framework?Live 100 is Jason Yarusi's three-part system, Break, Build, and Magnify, for creating lasting change. You start by breaking habits that no longer serve you, then build meaningful rituals through consistent, intentional action, and finally magnify your growth by inspiring others and compounding small wins over time.Jason talks a lot about self-awareness. How can solopreneurs strengthen it? He recommends honest reflection without judgment (notice how you're showing up in moments of stress and identify which “version” of yourself is leading the way). Then ask: How would the version of me who's already achieved my goals respond right now? Over time, that awareness shifts both mindset and behavior.What does Jason mean by taking action over perfection? Perfection is just a fancy form of procrastination. Jason urges solopreneurs to take one small step, because movement creates momentum. Every step reveals new information, while inaction keeps you stuck. As he puts it, “Most people think they're jumping off a building when really, they're just stepping off a curb.”

Milliardenverluste bei Volkswagen und Porsche, massiver Gewinneinbruch bei Mercedes, Stagnation der deutschen Wirtschaft – die Autonation Deutschland kämpft mit den Folgen großer Umbrüche und eigener Versäumnisse. Die Automobilindustrie spiegelt wider, wie schwer Deutschland der Wandel von einer industriellen Erfolgsnation zur digitalen Innovationsgesellschaft fällt. Wie lässt sich der Standort zukunftsfähig machen? Caren Miosga diskutiert mit ihren Gästen, wie wir uns im Wettstreit zwischen den USA und China behaupten können. Was braucht es, um die Wende zu schaffen, Abhängigkeiten zu verringern und neue Innovationen voranzubringen?

Politiker und Interessenvertreter sprechen gerne von „Marktversagen“, um staatliche Eingriffe zu rechtfertigen. Tatsächlich ziehen aber staatliche Eingriffe allzu oft Fehlentwicklungen nach sich, die dann als angebliches Marktversagen gerechtfertigt werden. Beispiele gibt es dafür mehr als genug: die Energiepolitik, die Wohnungspolitik oder auch die Geldpolitik. Der sogenannte Greenspan-Put – die implizite Garantie der Notenbank, bei Krisen die Zinsen zu senken und die Risiken zu übernehmen – hat dazu geführt, dass Banken und Investoren immer größere Wetten eingehen konnten, ohne die Konsequenzen tragen zu müssen. Die Europäische Zentralbank setzt diese Politik der Manipulation bei den Staatsanleihen der Eurozone fort. Wenn aber das Haftungsprinzip aus dem marktwirtschaftlichen System herausgenommen wird, dann funktioniert es nicht mehr. Die Folge sind immer öfter auftretende und in ihrer Dimension immer größere Krisen an den Finanzmärkten, sowie eine deutlich gestiegene Verschuldung. Vieles spricht dafür, dass die Stagnation, die wir in Deutschland seit 2018 durchleben und die sich mittlerweile zu einer Dauer-Rezession auswächst, in erheblichem Maße die Folge zunehmender staatlicher Eingriffe ist. Das ist die zentrale Feststellung von Prof. Dr. Stefan Kooths, Direktor der Forschungsgruppe Konjunktur und Wachstum am Kiel Institut für Weltwirtschaft, in seinem neuen Buch „Marktwirtschaft – Wohlstand, Wachstum, Wettbewerb" und darüber spricht Daniel Stelter mit ihm im Experteninterview. Aktueller Einschub zu Beginn: Daniel Stelter berichtet von seiner gerade zu Ende gegangenen Reise nach China. Sein Fazit: China entwickelt sich zum Deutschland des 21.

Flute 360 | Episode 348: "Movement Is Healing – How Flutists Can Break Free from Stagnation and Step Into Clarity" Have you ever felt stuck in your music career? Like you're waiting for the perfect sign from God before making your next move? In this heartfelt solo episode, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay shares a vulnerable, faith-centered reflection on how movement—both physical and spiritual—can lead to deep healing and renewed clarity. From overcoming a life-changing neck injury to navigating a season of career uncertainty, Heidi unpacks the power of taking small, faithful steps forward. Drawing from Isaiah 40:31, she reminds us that waiting on the Lord isn't about standing still—it's about trusting while moving. If you're a flutist, teacher, or creative who feels paralyzed in decision-making, this episode will encourage you to breathe, move, and watch how God meets you along the way. Main Points: Movement as a pathway to physical, emotional, and career healing How waiting on the Lord can be active faith, not passive idleness The difference between obedience and stagnation Why clarity comes after you move—not before Real examples from Heidi's neck-injury recovery and career pivots How to align your free will with God's direction Scripture Highlight: "But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint."

Her transparency and humor will inspire you to embrace your truth and imperfections, and lead with both power and compassion.Episode Highlights00:00 – “Progress brings happiness.” 01:15 – “Look good, feel good, do good.” How inner confidence fuels outer success.05:30 – Energy equals productivity — lessons from Tony Robbins on physiology and focus.09:30 – The truth about mom guilt, mom shaming, and giving yourself grace.17:00 – Setting boundaries and choosing family over constant business travel.21:30 – “People like you when you're authentic.” Leadership lessons from letting go of ego.31:15 – Owning her anxiety — how Mara turned fear into focus and vulnerability into power. 43:00 – “Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.” Choosing resilience and self-love.49:30 – “You're not going to be everybody's cup of tea — and that's okay.”Key Takeaways:Progress Creates Purpose Growth — even small — fuels happiness.

Give yourself permission to be human.Anxiety Can Be Power Instead of resisting fear, Mara reframes it as heightened awareness — a tool for empathy and performance.Authenticity Wins Success feels better when you stop performing for approval and start living in alignment.Feminine Energy Is Strength Nurturing, empathy, intuition — these aren't weaknesses. They're leadership advantages.Boundaries Build Balance Saying “no” with intention creates space for what truly matters — family, health, and peace of mind.Notable Quotes:“There is absolute guilt. I'm the mom at the football meet in heels, on the phone, juggling everything. But at some point, you've got to give yourself grace.” Mara Dorne“You're not going to be everybody's cup of tea — and that's okay. Peel back the layer and be who you want to be.” Mara Dorne“Being a woman is a superpower. It really is a superpower, especially in sales, because men like to talk to women and women like to talk to women.” Mara Dorne“We're all going to experience pain. But what you don't have to experience is suffering. You don't have to suffer.” Dwayne KerriganMara is a self-made millionaire, best-selling author, public speaker, and award winning BILF ('Boss I'd Like to Follow') who built a remarkable career in a male-dominated industry.

In this conversation, Dr.Vlatko Vedral discusses the complexities of quantum mechanics and its implications for our understanding of reality. He explores the stagnation in physics, the importance of thought experiments, and the potential for new discoveries through technological advancements. Vlatko emphasizes the need for adventurous research and the role of quantum information in shaping future scientific inquiries. He also speculates on the transformative possibilities of quantum technologies and their impact on human perception.Takeaways Quantum mechanics challenges our understanding of reality. The observer effect is central to quantum mechanics. Physics has been stagnant with two main theories for over a century. Technological advancements are paving the way for new experiments. Thought experiments can guide genuine scientific discovery. The integration of quantum mechanics and general relativity is crucial. Quantum information theory expands our understanding of computation. New theories may emerge from the intersection of quantum mechanics and technology. The perception of reality may evolve with quantum technologies. Funding and research approaches need to be more adventurous.Chapters 00:00 Exploring Quantum Reality 04:48 The Stagnation of Physics 08:41 The Clouds of Uncertainty 12:46 Thought Experiments and Their Power 16:01 Five Experiments for the Future 24:54 Technological Feasibility of Experiments 28:27 Quantum Theory and Its Foundations 34:08 The Role of Quantum Information 39:35 Imagining New Realities Through PortalsFollow Vlatko on LinkedIn, Substack, and find their new book here.Subscribe to Breaking Math wherever you get your podcasts.Follow Breaking Math on Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Website, YouTube, TikTokFollow Autumn on Twitter, BlueSky, and InstagramBecome a guest hereemail: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

Pastor Dharius Daniels from Atlanta said at a recent conference that we sometimes have to choose closure without clarity. These are moments in which the matter has been settled even though we don’t understand everything, and it’s a liberating truth. When you have questions weighing you down and situations you can’t explain, it can either keep you stagnant or just walking in circles. Instead, we want to learn how we can continue to move forward. If you have been walking through a season of doubt, confusion or questioning, it’s time to lift up your head. The season of head-hanging and stagnation is over. Stop looking at where you’ve been and look up to see where you’re going. Jesus gave His life as a sacrifice for us to give us an abundant life, but you will never find God’s abundance looking down or looking back. You have to lift up your head and let the King of Glory into your everyday life.

Forrester's latest report indicates that the AI hype wave is reaching its peak, with many enterprises expected to delay a significant portion of their AI spending until 2027 due to challenges in proving return on investment (ROI). As a response to increasing regulatory complexities, 60% of Fortune 100 companies are anticipated to appoint heads of AI governance by next year. This shift highlights a growing focus on compliance and risk management rather than pure innovation. Meanwhile, G2's findings present a contrasting narrative, revealing that nearly 60% of companies have successfully deployed AI agents, with a low failure rate and high satisfaction among users.Despite the positive deployment statistics from G2, a study by Atlassian uncovers a paradox: while individual usage of AI tools has surged, 96% of businesses report no significant improvements in efficiency or innovation. The survey indicates that only 3% of executives believe AI has driven transformational change within their organizations. This disconnect suggests that while AI tools are being adopted widely, their impact on actual business outcomes remains limited, leading to skepticism among decision-makers.Anthropic's recent research raises concerns about the security of large language models, revealing that as few as 250 malicious documents could effectively poison these models, compromising their functionality. This alarming finding underscores the vulnerabilities present in AI systems, particularly those relying on public or partner data. The implications for businesses are significant, as they must now consider the security of their AI systems alongside their operational capabilities.In the hardware arena, Apple and Intel are igniting a new chip race, with Apple launching its M5 chip, which boasts enhanced AI performance and graphics capabilities. Intel's Panther Lake chip is set to compete with improved efficiency and performance metrics. As AI technology becomes increasingly integrated into devices, managed service providers (MSPs) must adapt to the complexities of endpoint management and AI readiness. The evolving landscape emphasizes the need for governance, security, and effective measurement of AI outcomes, positioning MSPs as crucial enablers in this transition.Four things to know today 00:00 Forrester, G2, Atlassian, and Anthropic Paint a Complex AI Picture — Success, Stagnation, and Security Risk06:09 Apple's M5 and Intel's Panther Lake Show the Future: Every Device Becomes an AI Engine09:17 GoTo, Gradient, and LevelBlue Show the Next MSP Evolution — Refinement, Not Reinvention12:21 Microsoft's Final Windows 10 Update and IE Mode Lockdown Signal the End of Legacy Tolerance This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://try.auvik.com/dave-switchhttps://scalepad.com/dave/

Guest: David Desharnais, a coach at CEO Coaching International. David  is a high-impact technology CEO and enterprise operator with over 25 years of experience leading organizations through scale, transformation, and value creation across more than 20 industries. Quick Background:   Companies don't stall because their industries are stalling, or because of tariffs, or because of AI. They slow down because the CEO doesn't have a plan to maintain growth through the good and the bad.  When your dashboards start blinking red, you need to find ways to plug your company into a broader ecosystem of customers, products, and partnerships that can recalibrate your business' trajectory, no matter what's going on in the rest of the world.  On today's show, David Desharnais discusses how CEOs can break out of stagnation and accelerate their growth, as well as how to build a Jim Collins-style flywheel that will keep propelling your company towards BIG.
