AI has taken us into uncharted territory.

Over the past decade, tobacco control has waged war on vaping. They have demonized, taxed, restricted, and banned safer nicotine products. They've misrepresented science and misinformed the public, all in a misguided effort to eliminate nicotine use entirely. But U.S. consumers aren't buying it. They're rejecting the panic, sidestepping the bans, and switching to nicotine vapes by the millions. According to Goldman Sachs, sales of smoke-free nicotine products will overtake combustible cigarettes in the U.S. this year. It's a seismic shift in the nicotine market, and yet public health remains silent. Joining RegWatch to break down this realignment is Dr. Charles Gardner, a key figure in tobacco harm reduction and a relentless advocate for evidence-based public health. Gardner says the age of smoking is ending and almost nobody knows it.

This episode of SpaceTime covers a range of exciting topics, including the delayed launch of Gilmour Space's Eris rocket, groundbreaking discoveries on Venus, and a billion-year-old asteroid impact in Scotland that raises new questions about the evolution of life on Earth.Eris Rocket Launch DelayedGilmour Space has postponed the maiden launch of its Eris orbital rocket due to technical issues encountered during pre-flight checks. The rocket, designed to carry small satellite payloads, will now face a delay of at least three weeks as the company investigates the unexpected deployment of the launch vehicle's nosecone fairings. We discuss the implications of this delay and what it means for future commercial launches.Tectonic Activity on VenusIn a fascinating discovery, scientists have identified possible tectonic activity on Venus, based on data from NASA's Magellan mission. Researchers found evidence of unique geological features known as coronae, which may indicate ongoing deformation of the planet's surface due to molten material from below. This research not only enhances our understanding of Venus but also offers insights into Earth's geological history.Ancient Asteroid Impact in ScotlandA recent study has revealed that a massive asteroid impact in Scotland occurred 990 million years ago, much later than previously thought. This discovery, based on dating tiny zircon crystals, suggests a connection between this impact event and the emergence of early freshwater eukaryotes on land. We delve into the implications of this revised timeline for our understanding of life on Earth and the environmental changes triggered by such impacts.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesScience Advanceshttps://www.science.org/journal/sciadvJournal of Geologyhttps://www.geosociety.org/publications/gsa/geo.aspBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.00:00 This is Space Time Series 28, Episode 60 for broadcast on 19 May 202500:54 Gilmour Space's Eris rocket launch delayed10:15 Possible tectonic activity discovered on Venus18:45 Billion-year-old asteroid impact in Scotland raises questions about early life on Earth25:00 Science report: Unexplained communications equipment found in Chinese-made solar panel inverters

What do you do when the subject of your research lies deep beneath the waves? Send down an underwater robot, of course! We chat to volcanologist Sofia Della Sala about her recent fieldwork expedition to Santorini, where she used a Remotely Operated Vehicle, or ROV, to search for hydrothermal vents in the Aegean Sea. These vents - which are like hot springs on the sea floor - could provide vital insight into the volcanic and tectonic activity in the region.

Has Egypt switched sides? For over five decades, successive Egyptian governments have received enormous amounts of U.S. foreign aid and military assistance – essentially rewards for making peace with Israel and for remaining generally aligned with American regional policy and interests. We had a taste of what could happen to this arrangement when Barack Obama encouraged the toppling of longtime ally, President Hosni Mubarak, and the Muslim Brotherhood came to power. Fortunately, the Brothers' regime was overthrown before it fully imposed Sharia law and threw in with Israel's enemies.  Now, Egypt's government is violating the peace treaty with Israel by massing forces in the Sinai. It's recently conducted air and naval exercises respectively with China and Russia and improved relations with Iran. And it has released top Muslim Brothers from jail.  These manifest the strategic equivalent of tectonic shifts. Brace for impact.  This is Frank Gaffney.

SpaceTime Series 28 Episode 46The Astronomy, Space and Science News PodcastUnraveling Black Hole Jets, Martian Dust Devils, and Earth's Tectonic MysteriesIn this episode of SpaceTime, we explore groundbreaking research that sheds light on how black holes generate their powerful plasma jets. A new study reveals that these jets are formed when superheated gas experiences a rapid shrinking towards the black hole's event horizon, offering insights into galaxy evolution and the fundamental physics of black holes. We discuss the implications of these findings for understanding cosmic phenomena and the behavior of matter in extreme gravitational fields.NASA's Mars Perseverance Rover Observes Martian TwistersNext, we delve into the fascinating observations made by NASA's Mars Perseverance Rover, which has captured images of dust devils swirling on the rim of Jezero Crater. These dust devils, including one consuming another, provide important data on Martian atmospheric conditions and help refine our climate models of the Red Planet. The rover's findings highlight the role of these phenomena in influencing Martian weather and surface interactions.New Insights into Earth's Tectonic PlatesAdditionally, we discuss a new study that uncovers how anomalies in the Earth's mantle transition zone affect the movement of tectonic plates. The research suggests that thick basaltic rock compositions within this zone can influence the trajectory and speed of subducting plates, which is vital for understanding the recycling of surface materials and the long-term stability of Earth's climate. This discovery opens new avenues for studying plate tectonics and its implications for our planet's habitability.00:00 Space Time Series 28 Episode 46 for broadcast on 16 April 202500:49 Mechanisms behind black hole jet formation06:30 Implications for galaxy evolution and black hole physics12:15 Mars Perseverance Rover's dust devil observations18:00 Importance of dust devils in Martian climate studies22:45 Insights into Earth's tectonic plate movement27:00 Summary of recent geological findings30:15 Science report: Social media's impact on body imagewww.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com

Episode #67 with Nigel Morris-Cotterill, Oonagh van den Berg and Malcolm NanceIn this episode of Regulatory Ramblings, the panel tackles the Trump administration's controversial move to suspend enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA)—a key anti-money laundering (AML) initiative passed under the Biden administration. The decision, announced by the U.S. Treasury Department in early March, stated that it would halt all penalties and fines associated with beneficial ownership information reporting under current regulatory deadlines. Crucially, it also confirmed that no penalties would apply even after forthcoming rule changes take effect—effectively dismantling the mechanism meant to expose the real owners of shell companies.The net result: the U.S. government will no longer require shell companies to disclose their beneficial owners, allowing wealthy individuals and corporations to hide their profits from public scrutiny. The CTA, passed in 2021, had required companies to submit ownership data to FinCEN (Financial Crimes Enforcement Network) as a means to tackle tax evasion and corporate cronyism. The rule's enforcement had already been frozen by a federal court order. Reacting to the Treasury's announcement, President Donald Trump took to Truth Social, calling the CTA “an absolute disaster for Small Businesses Nationwide” and celebrating the suspension of what he described as “the economic menace” of beneficial ownership reporting.This episode's Spotlight segment features returning guest Nigel Morris-Cotterill, a renowned expert in counter-money laundering and financial crime compliance. He breaks down why the term “beneficial ownership” is a legal misnomer in corporate law and argues that the CTA was always set up to fail—especially in a country like the U.S. that has historically resisted full FATF compliance. Nigel discusses how this rollback affects compliance expectations in Asia-Pacific financial hubs like Hong Kong and Singapore, stressing that legal and compliance professionals in the region must remain vigilant. He also cautions that the rollback creates tension between U.S. and local AML standards, while selective extraterritorial enforcement by the U.S. is all but guaranteed.Joining the discussion, Malcolm Nance and Oonagh Van den Berg weigh in on the global implications of the move. They explore whether this rollback represents a temporary pause for regulatory review or a tectonic shift in the U.S.'s approach to corporate accountability, transparency, and AML enforcement. Oonagh underscores that while the CTA imposed real burdens on SMEs, the abandonment of enforcement could signal a broader retreat from anti-corruption efforts—especially as the Trump administration also moves to suspend the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and disband units focused on fighting kleptocracy.Together, the panel explores pressing questions: Will deregulation lead to more illicit finance? Is this the start of a new multipolar world order where financial crime enforcement becomes political and transactional? They touch on how trade-based money laundering, sanctions evasion, and the exploitation of legacy systems like hawala continue to pose massive risks to financial systems.The conversation ends with a consensus that blanket deregulation is not the answer. Instead, they call for smarter, more risk-based, tech-enabled regulation that moves beyond box-ticking and uses modern tools—like AI and data analytics—to target the real threats. It's a sobering yet thought-provoking discussion on what may be the beginning of a global recalibration in financial crime compliance.HKU FinTech is the leading fintech research and education in Asia.

After a week of market chaos, President Trump pulled back from the brink. But he didn't pull that far back. He left a 10 percent tariff on most of the world and launched a trade war with China. It's unclear what he will do after this 90-day pause or what countries need to do to satisfy him. But one thing that is very clear now is that our economy is subject to one man's whims.How are businesses supposed to adapt to this new reality? What is this new reality?Peter R. Orszag is the chief executive and chairman of Lazard, one of the world's largest asset management and global financial advisory firms. He also served as the director of the Office of Management and Budget under President Barack Obama, so was a policymaker during a financial crisis. And over the past few months, he's been talking to lots of C.E.O.s and corporate board members as they try to process these changing policies. I wanted to ask him what he's been hearing and how he sees the volatility of this moment.Mentioned:“A User's Guide to Restructuring the Global Trading System” by Stephen Miran“Paul Krugman on the ‘Biggest Trade Shock in History'” by The Ezra Klein ShowTrade Wars Are Class Wars by Matthew C.

In this episode of the Glowing Older podcast, host Nancy Griffin interviews Carl Honoré, a global keynote speaker and bestselling author, about the evolving landscape of ageism and the importance of embracing aging. They discuss the positive shifts in societal attitudes towards aging, the significance of intergenerational connections, and the role of mindfulness in living a fulfilling life. Honoré emphasizes the need for active resistance against ageism and the power of language in shaping perceptions. The conversation also touches on the potential of social media and AI in redefining aging and planning for a vibrant future.About Carl Carl Honoré is an award-winning writer, broadcaster and speaker. His bestselling books have been published in 35 languages. His second TED Talk is called Why We Should Embrace Ageing As An Adventure. Whether online or in person, Carl's keynotes and workshops are dynamic, inspiring, informative, and full of humor. His audiences range from business leaders, entrepreneurs and marketers to engineers, lawyers, and medical practitioners. Carl's latest book, Bolder, explores how we can age better and feel better about ageing. It's a spirited takedown of ageism. Bolder was a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week and a Reader's Digest Book of the MonthCarl Honoré Links TED TALK: In praise of ageingTED TALK : In praise of slownessKey TakeawaysOutdated myths, assumptions and stereotypes box you in and limit possibilities. Throw off the shackles of the cult of youth and don't pine for the past or shrink in horror from the future.Research suggests that one of the benefits of aging is that we get better at slowing down and being in the moment. We get better at focusing on one thing at a time and are less prone to multitasking.Mixing with different generations fosters understanding. When it comes to taking down the ageist industrial complex, mixing with other generations is at the top of the list. Language shapes our perceptions of aging. The soundtrack in your head affects how you age and how you feel about aging. Try to avoid terms like “senior moment” that reinforce negative stereotypes. It is important to be polite and civil on social media—especially in this incredibly polarized time. As soon as you get angry, you lose the argument and can turn people off.Life planning can help you find the future self that you aspire to be. Start living the “right” life for you instead of stumbling along an autopilot, which is what a lot of us are doing at many stages of our lives.We are at an inflection point in history with artificial intelligence. AI can be the ultimate wingman and co-pilot in later life with our database of experience and understanding.

Did you know there's a massive underground ocean hiding beneath our feet? Scientists just discovered what could be Earth's largest underground water reservoir, buried hundreds of miles below the surface. This hidden ocean isn't like the ones we see—it's trapped inside a special type of rock called ringwoodite, which holds water like a giant sponge. In fact, there might be three times more water down there than in all the oceans on the surface combined! This mind-blowing find could change what we know about Earth's water cycle and where our planet's water originally came from. Who knows—maybe there are even more hidden oceans waiting to be found deep below!

In this episode, we chat with Tony Reda, Founder, President, and CEO of Tectonic Metals, a mineral exploration company, focused on the acquisition, exploration, discovery and development of mineral resources from district-scale projects in politically stable jurisdictions that have the potential to host world-class orebodies in North America. Tony has been in mining for 20+ years in investor relations and corporate development roles before taking the helm at Tectonic back in 2018 and shares his journey, give us an update on the company, their key partnerships and the broad milestones and strategy the company is looking to execute. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tony's career in mining began at the age of 21 when he invested in mining stocks, leading to a significant loss during the Bre-X scandal. He returned to the industry in 2005, focusing on corporate development and investor relations, which laid the groundwork for his role as CEO of Tectonic Metals. Tectonic Metals emphasises early-stage discovery opportunities and aims to partner with local communities and Indigenous groups from the outset. This approach includes forming impact benefit agreements to ensure community support and involvement in the exploration process. The Flat Gold Project, located in Alaska, has shown promising results, including a new gold discovery with significant grades. The project is situated in a mineral belt that hosts one of the largest undeveloped gold deposits in the world, indicating strong potential for further exploration and development. Tectonic Metals has established key partnerships with organisations like Doyon, the Alaska Native Regional Corporation, and Crescat Capital. These partnerships not only provide financial backing but also streamline the permitting process and enhance community relations, which are crucial for project success. BEST MOMENTS "We are partnered up with one of Alaska's largest leading native regional corporations... they’ve invested over $4 million supporting our efforts to explore on their land." "If you can hit gold in a kilometre-long target on your first attempt and hit grades as high as that, that tells you the system is huge." "We want something that's at least 5 million ounces or larger... this is not a one deposit system. Now there's potential for six of them." "The Trump administration is vocal about sort of, you know, homegrown resources and reducing their reliance on other countries for their natural resources."

It's wild to think about, but the continents haven't sunk into lava because of how Earth's crust works. The crust, which includes the continents, is like a giant jigsaw puzzle of solid plates floating on a gooey layer called the mantle. Even though the mantle is hot and partly molten, it's dense enough to keep the crust floating instead of letting it sink. Plus, continents are made of lighter, less dense rock compared to the heavier ocean floors, so they naturally stay on top. Earth's tectonic plates might shift and collide, but they're surprisingly sturdy over millions of years. So, while there's plenty of molten rock beneath us, the continents are safe from sinking anytime soon! Credit: CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...

We're picking up speed from here on, the fulcrum that was the mid-19th Century is passed and our story is developing quickly - this is episode 203 the Siege of Makapansgat and Reconstituting history. It is 1854, almost mid-way through the sixth decade of this momentous century and the region that's under our gaze is the northern Limpopo territory, the Waterberg. Those who live there today will know of its grandeur, and its extensive mountain ranges, riverine bush, delightful geology. Thaba Meetse is the northern Sotho name for the Waterberg, where the average height of the peaks here are 600 meters, rising to 2 000 meters above sea level. The vegetation is officially known as dry deciduous forest, or just the Bushveld to you and me. The original people here date back thousands of years, early evolutionary stages of hominid development can be traced here, so in some ways, it's part of the story of human existence on the planet. Its all about the type of rocks here, and the soils. Clamber amongst the red koppies and ravines and you can look out over the bush veld, with it's minerals such as vanadium and platinum, part of the Bushveld Igneous complex I spoke about in episodes one and two. Tectonic forces forced the rocks upwards, creating the famous Waterberg, the Thaba Meetse ranges, rivers deposited sediment and in these sandstone layers, you'll find the famous caves surrounded by cliffs hundreds of feet high, rising from the plains. Scientists and palaeontologists tracked our very first human ancestors who lived at Waterberg as early as three million years ago, and inside the cave we're going to hear about, Makapansgat, skeletons of Australopithecus Africanus have been found. Homo Erectus remains have also been found in the cave. This site has yielded many thousands of fossil bones, and what is known as The Cave of Hearths preserves a remarkably complete record of human occupation from Early Stone Age “Acheulian” times in the oldest sediments through the Middle Stone Age, the Later Stone Age and up to the Iron Age. It also is where one of the earliest Homo sapiens remains were found, a jaw found in the cave layers by archaeologists. The lime enriched deposits and dry conditions within the cave have allowed for the exceptional preservation of plant, animal and human remains as Amanda Beth Esterhuysen points out in her 2007 Wits University PhD. So its really metaphorical — an iconic cave because this is where the Boers and the Kekana people were going to go to war. Part of our story this episode is about a track, a wagon trail, that passed between the ivory hunting centre of Schoemansdal, Soutpansberg and the newly established Boer town of Pretoria and which cut straight through the middle of Kekana chief Mokopane's territory. And inside this territory is Makapansgat. Since the first trekkers had arrived in 1837, the Langa and Kekana people who lived in the Waterberg had watched in some disquiet as the numbers of Boers increased over the years. It was almost two decades after Louis Trichardt had wheeled his wagons through the Waterberg, and by the mid-19th Century there wasn't a week that went past without hunters or prospectors wandering through. It's a double irony then to relate that both the Langa and Kekana had origins further south, they were part of the amaNdebele who had fled from Northern Zululand during Shaka's reign, related to the amaHlubi, and had been involved in some land seizing themselves. Don't simplify history, its more radical than a buffet hall of red berets. King Mghombane Gheghana of the Kekana, and Mankopane of the Langa, were not prepared to accept Trekker overlordship like they had fought against Mzilikazi's overlordship. They rejected the trekker system of labour where every black adult male was supposed to work for the Boers for nothing. Mokopane by the way is a northern Sotho form of Mghombane Gheghana, and he was known throughout the territory as Mokopane.

California's next big earthquake could be a real game-changer, especially for the western part of the state. Scientists are keeping a close eye on the San Andreas Fault, which has the potential for a massive megathrust quake. If it hits, the shaking could be strong enough to cause land to sink along the coast, leading to flooding and major damage. This would be a big deal for cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles, which are already dealing with rising sea levels. Experts are urging people to prepare by having emergency kits and plans in place. It's a reminder that living in earthquake country means staying ready for the unexpected!

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Anna Bower and Natalie Orpett and Lawfare Contributing Editor Michel Paradis to talk about the week's biggest national security news stories, including:“A Justice Delayed Still Has Justice on the Mind.” After weeks of waiting, New York state court judge Justice Juan Merchan has finally become the first judge to apply the Supreme Court's Trump v. United States immunity decision, holding that incoming President Donald Trump's convictions under New York state law may stand and did not unduly rely on conduct for which he is immune. How persuasive is his ruling? And what can it tell us about the future of both Donald Trump's criminal case and the Supreme Court's immunity holding?“A Break in the Case.” Tectonic shifts in Syrian politics over the past few weeks that has led, among other consequences, to the release of thousands of former prisoners, have brought back to the fore the case of Austin Tice, an American journalist who has been missing in Syria for more than a decade. Believed to have been held by the Assad regime before its collapse, some are concerned that he might have been injured or killed during Israeli airstrikes over the past several weeks. What does Tice's case tell us about the challenges of wrongful detention cases like his? And what should we make of allegations that the Biden administration is not doing enough to bring him back?“Gym, Tan, Low-flying Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.” The state of New Jersey has a new signature activity, as Americans and politicians of all stripes have been voicing concern over reports of mysterious drones of unknown origins operating in the state's skies. What might explain this phenomenon? And what should we make of the reactions around it? For object lessons, Anna recommended “Intermezzo,” by Sally Rooney as a read over the holiday. Natalie Orpett endorsed Washington, D.C.'s Eastern Market as a worthwhile visit for holiday shopping, and Scott doubled down with another local recommendation of Middleburg, VA, as a holiday wonderland not to be missed. And Michel wrapped things up with a final endorsement of Weike Wang's dryly comedic book “Rental House,” for those needing to commiserate over managing family relations over the holiday.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

On this edition of Parallax Views, Bashar al-Assad has fled Syria as the country's rebels have taken over the capital, Damascus. Assad has been President of Syria since 2000. His toppling at the hands of Syrian rebels, most notably Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham led by Abu Mohammed al-Golani, represents a historic moment both for Syria, which has been ravaged by a civil war since March 2011, and the wider Middle East. What does this mean for all the various players in the region such as Iran, Turkey, the U.S., Russia, the Kurds, Islamic State, and, perhaps most importantly, Syria itself? In order to answer some of these questions, journalist, scholar, and frequent Parallax Views guest James M. Dorsey returned to the program to unpack this historic moment. We'll discuss the potential scenarios for Syria's future, the question of HTS and its relationship to ultra-conservative Sunni Islam, jihadism, the winners and losers in this moment of Syria's history, the Syrian Civil War, Obama's record in Syria, U.S. President-elect Trump's comments that the U.S. should not get involved in Syria going forward, and much, much more!

Hello beloved, I was chatting in a community space recently with “my people” who revel in ancient wisdom. As we all sat at the digital table, we were being fed and inspired by the GREAT MYSTIC and AUTHOR, Alan Watts.You know those distilled perspectives that bring you much deeper by just sitting with the vibration of thought and meaning making? This post and video will draw you into - JUST THAT through the analogy of our soul and body being a VERB vs a NOUN. You could also say that the VERB is DYNAMIC energy and the NOUN is STATIC energy.Victim consciousness is characterized by a "static energetic" state, stems from a misunderstanding of self-responsibility and a lack of self-awareness. This static state contrasts with a dynamic view, which transcends linear time and space, emphasizing the present moment as our connection to a universal consciousness.In an Akashic reading, three components of energy come into play: Intention, Connection, and Conduction. But what if we're not just static entities? Alan Watts suggests we're more like verbs, constantly in motion and flowing like a river. This dynamic perspective allows us to understand the energy continuum—a flow between potential and manifested form. You are your present moment. Your present moment is not a noun.Your present moment is a cat purring. A waterfall roaring. A fly buzzing. Wind blowing. Clouds moving. Tectonic plates shifting.A human reading this right now.The present moment never ceases. Thanks for reading The Growth Guild! This post is public so feel free to share it.It is infinitely changing. Infinitely moving. Infinitely experiencing.My mission is to share how a dynamic, energetic perspective empowers us to transcend these limiting beliefs by seeing the truth behind the distortions that drain our energy. This involves mastering the delight of the unknown and making conscious choices based on a deeper understanding of ourselves as a VERB.By embracing our many archetypes we play over lifetimes, we step into the animation of our true nature as verbs - where we can feel more connected, liberated, and part of the ongoing dance of life. Remember, you're not meant to be static - you're a verb, flowing through life. Just be, flow, and enjoy the journey!Makes sense, right? YOU are the expression of your soul, in every moment and on the continuum. It's through the dynamic and view of the VERB that we reclaim access to the infinite potential of the quantum field and our imagination becomes the portal to the future and the past.With love, Kassandra.
