Since the peak year of 2018, German steel production has fallen by around 25 percent. Germany's economic crisis is accelerating. Sky-high energy costs, relentless competition from China and India, and the EU's absurd push for “green steel”—a climate-neutral variant no one demands on the world market—are pushing companies either into insolvency or out of the country. Industrial electricity prices have hovered around 16–17 ct/kWh for months. German industry still pays up to 70 percent more than U.S. or French competitors, who benefit from nuclear power as their energy base. This is the cost of the green transition. Green Deal Fails The frequency of summits is telling. Germany's transition to a climate-neutral economy has already failed. Reality refuses to bend to Brussels' Green Deal diktat.

According to some reports, ground beef and steak prices are up nearly 50% since July 2020. Trump has launched an investigation into meatpacking companies for possible price fixing and manipulation.     these Corporations are not criminally profiting at the expense of the American People. I am asking the DOJ to act expeditiously. Thank you for your attention to this matter! Overview of Alleged Price Fixing in the Beef IndustryThe "Big Four" meatpacking companies—JBS, Tyson Foods, Cargill, and National Beef—control about 85% of U.S. beef processing. They have faced multiple antitrust lawsuits and Department of Justice (DOJ) investigations accusing them of colluding to suppress prices paid to ranchers for live cattle while artificially inflating wholesale and retail beef prices. This creates a wide "meat margin" profit for packers at the expense of producers and consumers.

Migration Routes and Genetic Groups 2. Professor Meltzer details the migration routes of ancestral Native Americans, explaining that while they crossed the land bridge during maximum glaciation, they were initially trapped in Alaska by two vast continental ice sheets. The "ice free corridor" along the Rockies was not a viable route until around 13,000 years ago, so the likely path was down the Pacific coast, which may have cleared as early as 16,500 years ago. Meltzer introduces the concept of a "genetic ghost," which is evidence in the genomic record of a contributing population for which no physical sample has yet been found.

Trapped underground: my 54-hour cave rescue. For George Linnane, an experienced caver from England, being underground is his happy place, somewhere he can feel calm away from the chaos of daily life. But when he and two friends set out for a routine trip in the Ogof Ffynnon Ddu cave system in Wales one Saturday lunchtime in November 2021, they couldn't know it would turn into a nightmare. After a stone bridge gave way underneath him, George fell ten metres onto solid rock and couldn't move. He suffered a broken leg, shattered jaw, a punctured lung and spleen and was drifting in and out of consciousness. When news of his predicament got out, 300 extraordinary volunteers from around the UK mobilised and came to his rescue. Thanks to the quick thinking and skill of his friends and the hundreds of fellow cavers who rushed to his aid, George counts himself very lucky to be alive. His remarkable true story became the longest cave rescue in UK history, taking a mammoth 54 hours to bring him back to the surface.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Hamas announced that the body of IDF officer Lt. Hadar Goldin, held by the terror organization since 2014, will be returned to Israel at 2 p.m. We learn about Operation Protective Edge, the Hamas operation to ostensibly recover Goldin’s body that occurred yesterday, as well as what’s happening with the 150-odd Hamas gunmen who are trapped in a tunnel in the same part of the southern Gaza strip in an IDF-controlled area. Military representatives on Saturday morning notified the family of Lior Rudaeff that his body was returned to Israel by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad on Friday night, after forensic experts completed their identification. Fabian describes what we know of Rudaeff's killing on October 7, 2023. Former military advocate general Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi was hospitalized this morning. This comes a day after her elusive phone was discovered on a Tel Aviv beach by passersby. Fabian takes up the thread of the Hollywood-esque narrative about Tomer-Yerushalmi, who is accused of multiple crimes, including obstruction of justice. We also hear about Itai Ofer, who has been named as Tomer-Yerushalmi's replacement, and the obstacles he faces to secure the role. Defense Minister Israel Katz said Thursday he was “declaring war” on weapon smuggling via drones over the Egyptian border, instructing the military to declare a closed military zone in the area and the Shin Bet to define such attempts as terrorism. Fabian describes the uptick in smuggling and weighs in on the measures currently taken against it. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

The precarious situation the world is now in at every fractal level, from the macro social political level to the micro-emotional, can be considered similar to that of Zugzwang, a position in the game of chess where one must make a move, but every option loses. In this timely and urgent teaching, Shunyamurti reveals that this deadlock is of a divine nature, acting as the final catalyst for the soul to choose to awaken from the illusion of the burden and control of a fictional ego character and return home to the stillness of the Self.

The Forum for South Africa, FOSA is calling for the government to urgently help 17 South African men trapped in Ukraine's war-torn Donbas region. The men, aged between 20 and 39, were reportedly lured with job promises and are now stranded with limited access to basic necessities. FOSA accuses the government of failing to create jobs and protect its citizens and is demanding an investigation into how the men ended up in Ukraine.

For most people, debt isn't a mistake; it's just life. The mortgage, the car loan, and the credit cards are what everyone does. Making the minimum payments feels normal, but that actually keeps people stuck. Millions of families are drowning in debt, and they're barely managing. They're working hard, keeping up with their bills, but almost every dollar they earn goes right back out in interest. They're not moving forward; they're treading water. The hard part is, they're not doing anything "wrong." They're doing what the system taught them to do: stay cash-poor while the banks collect. People proudly lock in their 30-year loans at "record low rates," convinced they've made the smartest financial move of their lives. But they don't realize that even at 3%, they're giving away hundreds of thousands in interest. That money could be building security, breathing room, and financial freedom.  What if the same dollars you're paying the bank every month could start working for you instead? What if your paycheck could reduce your interest, shorten your payoff timeline, and create new cash flow, without earning a cent more? In this episode, Velocity Banking expert Christy Vann and all-in-one loan expert Harrison George return. We unpack how the system keeps you cash poor, and the simple shifts that can set you free. From using tools like the all-in-one first-lien HELOC to applying velocity and Infinite Banking principles, you'll learn how to redirect your money and eliminate debt faster.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The minimum-payment illusion Most people think staying current on their bills means they're managing their money well. What if that belief is the very thing keeping them broke? The hidden cost of a low-rate mortgage A 3% mortgage feels like a win, until you realize it's still costing you hundreds of thousands in interest. How can you flip that money back in your favor? Turning interest into opportunity Every month, you hand a portion of your paycheck to the bank. What happens when you start redirecting that same money toward your own freedom instead? The smarter way to get debt-free You don't have to earn more or live with less to change your situation. How do systems like the all-in-one HELOC, Velocity Banking, and Infinite Banking make that possible?   Guest Bio   Harrison George is a highly accomplished Mortgage Loan Officer at CMG Financial in Meridian, Idaho, specializing in both purchase and refinance solutions.

Some hauntings don't scream — they whisper. They begin with a reflection that doesn't belong, a heartbeat that quickens before the mind can name the fear. Jill from Illinois experiences a haunting unlike any other. It starts on a quiet night at her computer, when a friend's frantic message flashes across her screen: “There's something behind you.” She turns toward the kitchen—and in the mirrored surface of the dishwasher, she sees him. A small boy, maybe six or seven, with tear-streaked cheeks, a faded striped shirt, and a red scratch above one brow. He looks exhausted, heartbroken… and pleading. When she steps forward, he vanishes—fading into the reflection as if it's the only place he exists. Weeks pass. Then months. But the boy isn't gone. He returns—first in the glass, then in the room itself. Each time he appears, he seems a little braver, stepping closer to the line between life and death. Jill begins to realize this isn't just a spirit—this is a soul trying desperately to reach her. Trapped, lonely, and seeking peace, he crosses the boundary between reflection and reality. Now, every night, Jill wonders if the next time she looks toward the dishwasher, she'll see him not in the glass… but standing right in front of her. #trueghoststory #hauntedhouse #ghostchild #realhaunting #paranormalencounter #ghostreflection #supernatural #creepystory #realparanormal #ghoststories Love real ghost stories?

Cages | Zoochosis (Living a Trapped Life) by Collective Church

Mark 11:27-33 marks the beginning of a series of confrontations between Jesus and Jerusalem's religious leaders. Jesus had overturned tables and halted temple commerce in a bold act of divine judgment, and returning the next day, a delegation of chief priests, scribes, and elders (three groups that made up the Sanhedrin) confronted Him. Their loaded question—“By what authority do you do these things?”—isn't curiosity. They are not seeking to be taught or informed. These men have already begun plotting His death (Mark 8:31). The religious leaders knew of His miracles, heard His teaching astonish crowds, and saw demons flee, yet refused to bow. Mark's Gospel began focusing on Jesus' authority. The One who has authority to forgive sins, calm storms, and feed thousands now stands in the holy courts, and His authority is challenged by those who should recognize it most. Yet, Jesus exposes the authority to which these religious men submit with a question of His own. Trapped between admitting John the Baptist was sent from God (and thereby admitting Jesus was the Messiah John pointed to) or facing the angry crowds who believed John was from God, they answer, “We don't know.” The religious leaders, who claimed to represent God, reveal that their true authority is self-preservation, status, and control. Therefore, Jesus leaves them without any explanation. Having rejected the light, they are left in their darkness. This isn't mere history; it's a mirror for every heart. It is easy to claim Christ's authority in theory. Yet, when He enters our “temple" and starts rearranging our priorities, purging idols, or commanding obedience in our lives, we can respond like these religious men: “Who are you to demand this?” All of us live under authority—either Christ's or our own corrupted version—and Jesus' word exposes which rules us. A day is coming when every knee will bow, either in saving faith or under wrath. This passage isn't academic—it's urgent. Will you submit to the King who cleanses temples and claims lives, or ride the fence like these priests, saying, "We don't know." I. Jesus' Authority Is Challenged (v. 27-28) II. Jesus Exposes Our Corrupt Authorities (v. 29-33a) III. Jesus' Judgment For Rejecting Authority (v. 33)

Rick Woldenberg of Learning Resources explains why he's standing up to Trump's monarchic power grab, and why he sees himself standing shoulder-to-shoulder with James Madison. Want more Amicus?

In breaking news, a South Carolina Federal Judge who will decide whether Trump's novice prosecutor Lindsey Halligan will keep her judge, has issued a devastating order against Halligan, calling her “the indictment signer” only and refusing to use her US Attorney title, and ordering that “all documents relating” to her “participation in the grand jury” be turned over to the Judge. Michael Popok explains why this is so damning as the Judge considers whether to bounce Halligan AND whether she will throw out the Former FBI Director James Comey and NY AG Tish James Indictment along with it.

Most people live their entire lives inside invisible walls - false constructs built by the mind, society, and collective conditioning. These illusions keep you playing small, doubting your power, and chasing what already exists within you. But here's the truth: you are infinite consciousness.

In this episode, Susan Francis reveals the four biggest false constructs; and shows you how to dissolve them so you can step back into your infinite creative power and align with your highest timeline.   In this episode, you'll discover: How time keeps you locked in limitation, and why every shift happens in the present moment The illusion of "how" and why needing to know the steps blocks quantum flow The truth about worthiness and why your value is not something to earn How separation is the biggest illusion of all,  and how to reconnect with Source What it truly means to live beyond the mind's constructs and create from pure consciousness LINKS & RESOURCES > Work with me 1:1 https://www.susanfrancis.com.au/coaching > Download the Abundance Frequency Activation (Free Audio): https://www.susanfrancis.com.au/abundance-frequency-activation > Explore all courses and masterclasses: https://www.susanfrancis.com.au/courses-masterclasses > Follow Susan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamsusanfrancis > Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@iamsusanfrancis

#187 - A childhood marked by chaos. A career built on service. And a second act shaped by faith, language, and a blank page. Jake sits down with Ken Webb to trace a life that refuses to settle for mere existence—from praying his way through a turbulent home to leading across Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, and beyond.Ken opens up about how his grandparents' steady love and a lived-in faith helped him endure abuse and instability, and how those early lessons informed three decades in the Army Reserve. We walk through his pivot from military police to intelligence, the realities of early Iraq deployments, the nuance of embassy duty in Baghdad, and the complexity of retiring when your identity is wrapped in a uniform. Ken shares why he turned down comfortable contracts, chose Miraflores in Lima, and made Spanish class and the gym his new daily discipline.We also dig into his debut novel, Trapped in Deception, a work of fiction threaded with real messages and real emotions. The story explores gaslighting, misplaced trust, and moral courage through a protagonist who—like Ken—keeps moving forward even when life tilts sideways. Along the way, Ken reframes adventure: not cliffs and bravado, but consistent growth, honest discomfort, and choices that expand your life. If you're wrestling with what comes after a big chapter ends, or wondering how to trade drift for direction, this conversation offers practical hope and hard-won insight.Listen, share with a friend who needs courage today, and if the story speaks to you, leave a quick rating or review.

We all do things that we don't want to do. We say things we don't want to say. We act in ways that we don't want to act. Why? Why did I say that? Why did I do that? Why did I act that way? How can we start to be who we want to be? How do we break free when we feel trapped?

Alex Sloley: Coaching Teams Trapped Between Agile Aspirations and Organizational Control Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "The team says, oh, we want to try to do things this way, and the org keeps coming back and saying stuff like, no, no, no, you can't do that, because in this org, we don't allow that." - Alex Sloley Alex shares his current challenge working with a 10-person pilot Scrum team within a 1,500-person organization that has never done Agile before. While the team appears open-minded and eager to embrace agile ways of working, the organization continuously creates impediments by dictating how the team must estimate, break down work, and operate. Management tells them "the right way" to do everything, from estimation techniques to role-based work assignments, even implementing RACI matrices that restrict who can do what type of work. Half the team has been with the organization for six months or less, making it comfortable to simply defer to authority and follow organizational rules. Through coaching conversation, Alex explores whether the team might be falling into learned helplessness or simply finding comfort in being told what to do—both positions that avoid accountability. His experimental approach includes designing retrospective questions to help the team reflect on what they believe they're empowered to do versus what management dictates, and potentially using delegation cards to facilitate conversations about decision-making authority. Alex's key insight is recognizing that teams may step back from empowerment either out of fear or comfort, and identifying which dynamic is at play requires careful, small experiments that create safe spaces for honest dialogue. Self-reflection Question: When your team defers to organizational authority, are they operating from learned helplessness, comfort in avoiding accountability, or genuine respect for hierarchy? How can you design experiments to uncover the real dynamic at play? [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

It has been delayed by one year due to strong opposition from the U.S., Singapore, and other nations, pushing the adoption vote from October 2025 to October 2026. This postponement could further delay implementation until 2030 if additional hurdles arise.The levy aims to fund low- and zero-emission fuels by imposing fees on high-emission shipping (potentially raising $10 billion annually), but critics argued it would disproportionately burden exporters like the U.S., adding up to $150 billion in costs over a decade.   (function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:18510697282300316,size:[0, 0],id:"ld-8599-9832"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src="https://cdn2.decide.dev/_js/ajs.js";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,"script","ld-ajs"); https://twitter.com/ProfMJCleveland/status/1980324660366741740   A key example given is Jennifer Alba, who in 2021 bought a used 2018 Subaru Outback with a six-year loan totaling about $565 per month (after a $1,500 down payment).
