I will grant peace to their families. 2. They will be enlightened about the Divine Mysteries. 3. I will console them in their pains, and I will accompany them in their work. 4. I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not oppose the adorable will of my Divine Son or the sanctification of their souls. 5. I will defend them in their spiritual battles with the infernal enemy, and I will protect them at every instant of their lives. 6. I will visibly help them at the moment of their death—they will see the face of their mother. 7. I have obtained this grace from my divine Son, that those who propagate this devotion to my tears and dolors will be taken directly from this earthly life to eternal happiness, since all their sins will be forgiven and my Son and I will be their eternal consolation and joy.

We're joined by Kurt Budge, CEO of Leading Edge Materials are a European-focused company at the forefront of the energy transition, developing projects in critical raw materials that are essential to the future of clean energy, electric mobility, and advanced technologies. In this episode, we'll get an overview of Leading Edge Materials and discuss how today's shifting geopolitical landscape creates unique opportunities for companies strategically positioned in the critical minerals space. We'll also explore the broader outlook for rare earth elements and natural graphite, and where Leading Edge is focusing its efforts across its three core business areas. Kurt shares why the Norra Kärr project in Sweden is considered so vital to Europe's supply chain resilience, and we'll look ahead at what's next for the company as it helps build a more sustainable and secure materials future for the region. KEY TAKEAWAYS Leading Edge Materials is a Canadian company focused on critical raw materials projects in Europe, including a graphite mine in Sweden and a heavy rare earth project called Norra Kärr, which is vital for Europe's supply chain resilience. The ongoing geopolitical tensions, particularly between the U.S. and China, have heightened the urgency for Europe to diversify its supply chains for critical raw materials Rare earth elements, particularly heavy rare earths, are crucial for defence applications and the energy transition, making projects like Norra Kärr strategically important for Europe's industrial and military capabilities. The permitting process for mining projects in Europe is often slow and complex, which has hindered the development of critical projects like Norra Kärr BEST MOMENTS "What we've seen in the rare earth space, specifically in geopolitics this year, is a trade conflict between the US and China... the drive for diversification is more important than ever to build... resilience on a single supplier of critical raw materials." "Norra Kärr is the most advanced heavy rare earth project in Europe... it has this long history of other groups saying this is strategically important to Europe." "If you want a mine to produce, you can't just turn a tap and stop the critical raw materials flow. We are talking probably a minimum of 10 years from discovery to a built mine that's producing." "We need to take responsibility for putting these supply chains together... the Critical Raw Materials Act is great legislation, but we need to do more and we need to do it now."

Like always, Dan has two awesome tales this week! We are headed to Sweden! The first story is about Borgvattnet Vicarage.  For nearly a century, this remote, rural house has terrified priests, guests, and paranormal investigators with apparitions, phantom voices, and a grieving woman known only as the Gray Lady.  Then we go deep in the forests of Värmland.  Frammegården is an 18th-century parsonage so haunted that priests, investigators, and overnight guests have all fled in terror. From crawling shadow figures to violent attacks and the infamous “Black Hallway,” this house's spirits seem less interested in communicating… and more interested in hunting. Lynze has a theme to her stories as well this week: strange women raising havoc in two different homes!  Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

For the final episode of this season's Wraparound Roundtable, we're joined by Chris Kibui — the creator behind Hockey Tutorial, one of hockey's most respected and widely‑watched channels. From humble beginnings making “how to hockey stop” videos to producing gear reviews, expert tutorials, and international documentaries, Chris has spent over a decade bridging the gap between gear tech, on‑ice performance, and global hockey culture.Lee and Chris dive deep into:

Today we talked about why there are no excuses if you really want to level up, with players flying into our London and Miami camps from the US, Canada, India, UAE, Ireland, Sweden, South Africa and more. We shared what happens when players come back for a second camp and why the sooner you put yourself in that environment, the quicker you improve. On the live we brought viewers on stage for 1-to-1 chats about finding your best position, fixing decision making, bouncing back from injuries like Achilles tendinitis and hamstring problems, and even heard from a Nigerian academy owner and a US sports nutritionist about recovery, creatine and playing multiple games a week! We also broke down Harry Kane and Chicharito as perfect models for strikers to study, and highlighted Callum as an example of consistency, mindset and preparation paying off. If you want real talk about mentality, pathways, camps and what it actually takes to move forward, this session is for you.

Donny is joined by one of the world's first supermodels, Paulina Porizkova. Porizkova takes us on a journey from her early years that saw her leave Czechoslovakia for Sweden, how meeting modeling scout John Casablancas changed her life, and how the end of her marriage to rock star Ric Ocasek impacted her. Paulina also gives her thoughts on the differences between men and women aging and discusses how aging impacts the careers of models.  Learn more about your ad choices.

President Trump is unapologetic about his comments about Rob Reiner's death on Truth Social and - in under one minute - explains why he thinks the director was bad for America. A DC police commander is accused of fudging crime data and bullying cops into underreporting violent crime in the nation's capital. The former CEO of the Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce is accused of creating a fake nonprofit and a bogus CEO to funnel taxpayer money to himself. Plus proof that Minnesota was the blueprint for Somalian fraud... that's also happening in Sweden.

n this episode of Risky Benefits, Rick and Kyla interview Jordan Epstein, co-founder and CEO of Juno, about a fast-emerging benefit most employers and employees haven't encountered: child disability insurance—essentially “long-term disability, but for kids.” Jordan shares his family's personal experience navigating serious childhood medical issues and explains the massive financial and career impact families face when a child has a severe illness, injury, or lifelong condition.The conversation breaks down how the coverage works (including triggers, payouts, and support resources), why this protection is common in places like Sweden but historically absent in the U.S., and how brokers and employers can offer it on an employer-paid or voluntary basis.To listen in and subscribe to more episodes, visit our website: fbmc.com/podcast.

In episode 220, host Galit Friedlander and guest Chad Geiger (dance agent at The Movement Talent Agency) pull back the curtain on what representation really looks like from the agency side and what dancers often misunderstand about it. We talk about essential pieces of a sustainable dance career: communication, contracts, headshots and resumes that actually serve you, and how your choices off the floor impact your opportunities just as much as your training on it. Chad shares insight on navigating direct bookings, building trust with your team, and why “doing the basics well” is still one of the biggest differentiators in today's industry.

The tribe of Asher was populous, and their land allotment in the Levant bordered Sidon and Tyre. Their descendants included the Vandals, and they spread to many lands, including the Eurasian steppes, Wales, Sweden, and North Africa.  Many of them ultimately became Arian Christians, and amazingly God has the ability to identify who are His, and where they all went!

In this episode of the Nomad Futurist Podcast, co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence are joined by Lovisa Tedestedt, Strategic Account Executive for Cloud & Service Providers at Schneider Electric. Lovisa shares her unique journey from studying economics in Sweden to building a career that spans textiles, entrepreneurship, and leading complex technology accounts globally. Lovisa opens up about the importance of following your passions while embracing unexpected career pivots. She reflects on how her early experiences — studying textiles, interning at APC, and later moving to China — shaped her approach to business and leadership: "Very rarely in life do we get a chance to press the stop button or pause button and rediscover what we want to do in life." Her story highlights the value of cross-industry learning. Lovisa explains how the skills she developed running her own small fashion business translated seamlessly into managing large-scale accounts in the tech sector: "The way I approached the job was the same way I approached growing a small fashion company. It's all about scaling, it's all about resources, it's about understanding the customer, understanding the business." Lovisa also emphasizes the need for purpose and continuous learning. After years in corporate leadership, she recently returned to school to deepen her technical knowledge in data center systems, enhancing her ability to authentically connect with customers: "If I could deepen my knowledge of everything I talk about every day with customers, that would give me purpose, that would kind of give me a sense of achievement." Finally, Lovisa offers practical advice for young people entering the workforce, urging them to consider trades and technical fields as viable and lucrative career paths. She stresses the combination of skill, opportunity, and entrepreneurship in shaping meaningful, high-impact careers. This episode is a fascinating exploration of adaptability, lifelong learning, and bridging diverse experiences to create professional success.

The Daily Mail's Richard Eden reports on “Project Thaw,” a supposed effort to soften the Sussex freeze, with Harry's security review framed as part of a wider plan that could include UK schooling for the children—prompting a pointed response from royal insider Deep Crown about the logistics and emotional reality. New claims also swirl about tension between Queen Camilla and Catherine over whether Harry deserves any path back, while separate reporting suggests Kate's friendship with Sarah Ferguson is being watched closely amid worries about leaks. Overseas, Sweden's Royal Court confirms Princess Sofia was introduced to Jeffrey Epstein around 2005, stressing she declined a Caribbean invitation and has had no contact for 20 years. We also spot a small but loaded detail at Clarence House: family photos on display include images tied to Harry and Meghan's wedding and Louis's christening.

In this explosive episode of Habari Live, we break down Donald Trump's latest rally remarks where he openly praises “white countries” while attacking Black and brown nations, Somali communities, and Rep. Ilhan Omar. We examine how this rhetoric isn't accidental — it's part of an authoritarian immigration agenda that includes expanded status checks, ICE raids, and the criminalization of entire communities.We expose why Trump's obsession with Norway and Sweden ignores reality: universal healthcare, strict gun laws, and affordable childcare — policies Republicans fight at every turn. As GOP leaders prepare to let Obamacare subsidies expire, millions face rising healthcare costs while ignorance is weaponized for political power.The episode also covers a federal judge ruling that stripping protections from Venezuelans was illegal, the seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker, and Trump openly discussing ground troops — exactly as we warned weeks ago.Plus: Christian nationalism exposed, ICE chasing U.S. citizens, MAGA crowds chanting “send her back,” Barack Obama inspiring kids in Chicago, Rep. Jasmine Crockett fighting back, and why performative cruelty has become Republican policy.This is Habari Live — News Our Way.#HabariLive #Trump #Immigration #ICE #Authoritarianism #Healthcare #ChristianNationalism #Venezuela #IlhanOmar #Politics #BreakingNews #NewsOurWay

Princess Sofia's newly exposed ties to Jeffrey Epstein have triggered heavy criticism because the palace's explanation leans heavily on distance and hindsight rather than accountability. While the Royal Court insists she merely “met” Epstein a few times in the mid-2000s, leaked emails paint a picture of someone orbiting his social world far more closely than the sanitized palace version suggests. She didn't just bump into him — she was introduced, socialized, exchanged emails, and was even invited to his private island. The palace's claim that she “declined” the trip reads more like damage control than moral clarity, especially given how many young women in that era were drawn into his orbit under similarly innocuous pretenses. Critics argue that Sofia benefited from the glamorous social connections Epstein helped facilitate while now relying on the defense that “no one knew” who he really was.The timing has also raised eyebrows. Her sudden withdrawal from the Nobel Prize ceremony — a major royal showcase she has consistently attended — didn't go unnoticed, and it fueled suspicion that the royal family is scrambling to contain fallout rather than confront it. The broader criticism is that the Swedish monarchy is handling Sofia's Epstein ties with the same evasive tone we've seen from other powerful institutions: acknowledging the bare minimum while declining to explain why she maintained contact long enough for invitations, introductions, and social overlap with a man who already had a reputation — even then — for inappropriate behavior around young women. The palace's framing tries to minimize the connection, but in doing so, it underscores the same elitism and selective amnesia that let Epstein operate untouched for decades.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Royal princess curiously vanishes amid shock Epstein revelations after the ex-lingerie model was invited to Paedo Island

This week we start with a new international study examining everyday social norms in Sweden, including why silence in the cinema matters so much, and how these behaviours compare across countries. We then turn to a serious incident at a workers' housing complex in northern Sweden, where an alleged attempted murder has raised concerns about safety and living conditions. After that, Swedish Radio's political commentator explains the latest positioning among Sweden's governing parties and their cooperation with the Sweden Democrats. Finally, we look at Lucia traditions with an anthropologist at the Nordic Museum, as Sweden enters the Christmas season.Presenters: Babak Parham & Dave Russell.

Britain's military has seen better days - that much everyone can agree on. Enter ex-Royal Marine Commando Colonel Alistair Scott Carns, aka Wee Al, the UK's brand new Minister for Armed Forces. Part of the fresh batch of Labour MPs who entered Parliament in 2024, he has risen quickly through the Ministry of Defence and is considered "one to watch". Carns sat down with The Telegraph's associated defence editor Dominic Nicholls to talk about his plans to get the military into shape, the UK's commitment to Ukraine, and the ongoing Ajax debate. Plus he shared his views on Reform leader Nigel Farage and the legacy of Stakeknife in Northern Ireland.

We spend our lives waiting for the "real" moment to start. We wait for the apology, the warm bed, the recovery, or the flight announcement. But what if the waiting room is actually where the life happens? In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, we dismantle the anxiety of the delay. We look at a mother in Sweden paralyzed by pride, a homeless veteran in Russia who refuses to abandon his dog, a nurse in the Philippines keeping watch over a coma patient, and a group of stranded travelers in Germany finding a song in the dark. We ask the difficult questions: Is your pride a shield or a cage? Why do we treat the sick like they are invisible? And how do we turn a brownout into a cathedral? Join me as we learn how to stop checking the clock and start singing in the dark.

Since joining NATO in 2024, Sweden has taken on a more prominent role in European security. Swedish Defense Minister Pål Jonson joined Ryan in Washington to discuss how Sweden is supporting Ukraine, rebuilding its own military with more resources, and pushing for a faster, more agile defense acquisition system.

On this festive but delightfully off-kilter edition of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro return from an impromptu cruise with a pocketful of overheard conversations, a temporarily abandoned “walking rock,” and the kind of people-watching moments that make you wonder if Thin Mints are actually the glue holding society together. Then Jethro descends—figuratively—into the chilling depths of Sweden's historic Falun copper mine to uncover the true story of Fat Mats, the perfectly preserved miner whose body was found in 1719 after vanishing four decades earlier. Why did he look freshly deceased after 40 years? Why were his legs missing? And how did a simple silver coin become a family heirloom that still survives today? Kat follows with a world-tour of wonderfully unsettling holiday traditions: a rhyming duel with a Welsh dead horse named Mari Lwyd, a frog-eating, piggyback-demanding winter demon lurking in the Balkans, and Frau Perchta—an Alpine holiday enforcer who rewards the tidy and industrious while punishing the lazy with… well, creatively aggressive disembowelment. It's a globe-spanning celebration of strange seasonal folklore, preserved miners, questionable cruise-ship conversations, and precisely the kind of merry madness you've come to expect from The Box of Oddities.

“Peace on earth begins with birth.”In this powerful episode, Meagan sits down with Anna Lundqvist, founder of Sacred Birth International. Anna is a seasoned midwife from Sweden whose work has evolved into educating birthing families, doulas, and birth professionals on how to protect birth as a sacred, primal, and physiological event. Drawing from years of attending births around the world, Anna now focuses on teaching how to reclaim the innate design of birth, preserve reverence throughout the process, and support mothers in advocating for their autonomy. Her philosophy is rooted deeply in trauma-informed care and physiological birth wisdom. Meagan and Anna let the conversation flow naturally as they dive into induction, cervical checks, trauma, and the harsh realities many families face within the medical system. Anna offers heartfelt insight on processing fears, discerning intuition from anxiety, and why she often encourages VBAC at home for those who feel aligned with that path. Thank you for joining us today, @sacredbirthinternational for a very special conversation!!Content warning: This episode includes frank discussion of birth after sexual abuse and trauma.
