Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a special "Holy-and-UN" Day rip-roaring discussion of things that don't fall into the regular annual Torah reading cycle, but are absolutely relevant 'for such a time as this.' For the Erev Shabbat (Friday evening) reading, Mark was led to examine Ezekiel's vision in chapters 8 and 9, in a story he refers to as the "angel with the inkhorn." And it is undeniably relevant to much of what is happening now, and this weekend in particular. The Erev Shabbat reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/SSM-4-18-25-Dealers-Choice-special-teaching-for-Ishatar-sun-god-day-Ezekiel-8-9-podcast-xxx.mp3 During the 'change-of-pace' Sabbath Day message, Mark again takes up the theme of the current 'cusp,' or turning point, but with the understanding that we have been told that "things hidden will be revealed." (Matthew 10:26 et al) And it's not just pagan practices that have supposedly been 'christianized,' in spite of the fact that YHVH says so bluntly that He "hates" them. It's virtually every aspect of our world that you can name, from economics, to politics, to science...and even the no-longer-hidden open treason among those "Black-robed priests of Satan." Buckle up.

This week on #TubtaNabadda we mark UN Day, which commemorates the birth of the world body in 1945. For this, we'll be highlighting the United Nations' role in supporting Somalia across a whole range of other areas. In the first segment, we hear from Abdulrahman Yusuf Al-adala, Somalia's Deputy Minister for Information, Culture and Tourism. He shares insights on the partnership between the Somali government and the United Nations in addressing national priorities, including security, humanitarian and development needs. Mr. Al-Adala also highlights the significant progress Somalia has made through various UN initiatives. In the second segment, we hear from George Conway, who wears three hats in his work in Somalia: the UN Secretary-General's Deputy Special Representative, UN Resident Coordinator and Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia. He discusses key humanitarian and development initiatives currently underway and how the UN is adapting its strategies to meet the country's evolving needs. He also tells us about the importance of effective collaboration among local communities, the Somali government and the UN to better meet those needs.

It is also the first episode in our new portrait series, where we will interview inspiring people from all walks of life and all over the world to bring you the best insight into their fascinating lives and opinions.

(This is a bilingual episode, mostly spoken in the Indonesian language. Apologies to any of our international/non-Indonesian-speaking audience members who will not be able to tune in.) Disclaimers: This episode is meant to represent an honest reckoning of  personal experiences from our own respective schools and schooling systems, and not meant to be a representation for any academic institution or system whatsoever. Additionally, please also note that both of the featured talents in this episode are part of the high school graduating class of 2016, and that a lot has changed not only in terms of respective institutional cultures and rules, but also legal legislation.  Episode Description: We're not here to talk about the vapid, shallow, obvious shit like tuition, school facilities, whether or not rich kids come to campus dripping in luxury designer brands head to toe and all that kind of stuff — We're diving in much deeper and much more intimate in this episode where Indah and Esther sit down to discuss about the cultural and political paradigms of Indonesian public schools vs. international schools. Are all local schools here in Indonesia religious/Islamic? How do students get treated as the religious/racial minority? What is 'Tawuran?' Do international schools conduct 'Upacara' every Monday morning? Are international curriculums such as IB, AP & IGCSE curriculums really that much better than the local curriculum? Do international school kids put down public school kids as being "inferior?" Do public school kids put down international school kids as being "spoiled, entitled fake Indonesians?" All of the skin-deep questions the people have been wanting to know the answers to, we've answered.

On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, tomorrow February 4th is the UN Day of Human Fraternity, and not too much longer past that we shall see the opening of the Abrahamic Family House in Abu Dhabi, the headquarters for the One World Religion of Chrislam. On the Abraham Accords front, Netanyahu is in Paris as you read this, deep in talks with Emmanuel Macron, and business is booming. Right now there are 7 or 8 Muslim nations on the verge of joining the Accords, including the nation of Sudan. In other news, a Chinese spy balloon was spotted yesterday over the northern United States, Russia is preparing to release 500,000 new ground troops into Ukraine as Putin warns that he will “gain the world's attention” on the one-year anniversary of the Ukraine war on February 24th. All this and much more on this Prophecy News Podcast! Today we are going to present you with a whole boxful of end times puzzle pieces that with the Holy Spirit's leading we will endeavor to put together and connect all the dots. For example, did you know that the Declaration of Human Fraternity, the constitution of the One World Religion of Chrislam, was created by Pope Francis and sold to the Muslims by Mohamed bin Zayed? Furthermore, did you also know that the Abraham Accords, not created by Jared Kushner and Donald Trump, actually comes from…wait for it…Mohamed bin Zayed and Pope Francis? Have you ever asked yourself why these two end times characters would team up to do this? We have.

This episode features a conversation about the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in your career development work with Dr. Candy Ho, inaugural Assistant Professor, Integrative Career and Capstone Learning at the University of the Fraser Valley in British Columbia, Canada.

This week on #TubtaNabadda, we celebrate UN Day, observed globally on 24 October, which marks the anniversary of the entry into force in 1945 of the UN Charter.

He explains how, 76 years after its creation, the United Nations remains very relevant to the current global situation.

Over the past weekend some changes were made to Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Foundation website. Meghan and Harry are also using their website to promote International Women’s Day that will take place on March 8th.This is not the first year that Meghan either as a working or non-working Royal has celebrated International Women’s Day.International Women’s day dates back to the early 1900’s with the early focus being on obtaining rights for women to votes. The United Nations began celebrating International Women's Day in the International Women's Year, 1975. In 1977, the United Nations General Assembly invited member states to proclaim March 8 as the UN Day for women's rights and world peace.Every year has a theme and for 2021 the theme is Choose To Challenge.Meghan and Harry’s approach on their website is somewhat different. Continuing their theme of Compassion in Action, the couple are encouraging their followers in the month of March to unleash a groundswell of real acts of compassion for the women in our lives and in our communities. https://www.archewell.com/iwd To make things easy, Meghan and Harry have included links to various non-profits on their website and you can click these to learn more about some of the domestic and international organizations that are active in advocating for women and children, and you can also make donations or shop from the websites of the various charities. What we are learning is that Harry and Meghan are back on a roll. When they were working Royals, they used their Sussex Royal Instagram account to raise awareness to causes and charities that many of us hadn’t heard of. It seems that Meghan and Harry as non-working Royals are relaunching this initiative, but using their Archewell Foundation website as the means to get their messages out.Those of you listening from America and Canada, don’t forget to set your TV pre-recorders for the CBS Interview between Oprah, Meghan and Harry.

In this episode, Rachel and I revisit our first moments learning about the United Nations, the importance of speaking up for what one believes in, why the United Nations should matter to Americans across the country and more about the work she leads as the Executive Director of UNA-USA. Rachel Bowen Pittman serves as Executive Director of UNA-USA, a grassroots movement of more than 20,000 Americans in over 200 chapters across the U.S. who are dedicated to supporting the work of the United Nations in communities, on campuses, and on Capitol Hill. Rachel works to maximize UNA-USA's advocacy impact by guiding the strategic vision for the organization, overseeing membership expansion, and managing partnerships. Rachel works closely with UNA-USA's National Council and Affinity Group leadership to spearhead new initiatives that support a strong U.S.-UN partnership. Before she was appointed Executive Director in June 2019, Rachel served as UNA-USA's Senior Director of Membership and Programs. In this role, she managed UNA-USA's national programs and events, including the annual Global Engagement Summit at UN Headquarters, Global Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C., and UN Day events across the country. She also led a nationwide fundraising campaign to provide education to youth in refugee camps. Learn more about UNA-USA by clicking here.

Il day after il comizio flop di Tulsa, il giorno prima del libro di Bolton (che è già il libro più venduto - cioè prenotato - del 2020): certamente non uno dei periodi più brillanti dell'era Trump alla Casa Bianca. In Germania, visto il nuovo focolaio del Nord Reno Westfalia, si parla di possibile ritorno al lockdown.

Dear DCIS Parents, We have finally reached the end of a very busy and successful term and I am sure all members of the DCIS community are looking forward to a well-earned rest. The highlight of the half term was the visit by the CIS and WASC accreditation teams. As I write we are still waiting for the formal outcome of the process but we had some lovely feedback from the visitors and we eagerly await the formal reports. We are very proud of our achievements at Dover Court and (without getting too far ahead of ourselves!) therefore we are grateful of an external validation of this from two respected accreditation agencies. I will be in contact early next term with the official outcome of the visit and a summary of the commendations and recommendations the team makes. We have had some really interesting visitors to the school including Adrian Hayes, who holds the record for climbing Everest and visiting both poles in 18 months. He will be back next term to speak to more of our year groups. Zoe Griffiths enchanted our Secondary students with the wonders of the power of Maths and we had visitors from Michael Ng and Esther Seah Hui En from The Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (ISEAS) to support our students’ learning in History. We also enjoyed two very powerful visits from NAE Juilliard specialists in Drama and Dance. The UN Day was another wonderful success this year. It was fantastic to see our families representing and sharing information on the 55 countries and territories we have in the school community. I am grateful for the hard work of our UN committee led by Ms Hyland and Ms Gray for their great work pulling this together. One of my many regrets of not being at DCIS next year is seeing how the school continues to develop this lovely exposition of our diverse Dover Court community. Our choir have been involved in two high profile events this half term. The first was singing, with the choirs from the other British Schools in Singapore and southern Malaysia, at the annual Remembrance Service at Kranji. The second was providing the welcome entertainment at the Great British Ball organised by the British Chamber of Commerce and the British Club. We had a number of trips and expeditions this term. A group of intrepid Secondary students took part in the World Scholars Cup, firstly in Manila and then at the Grand Final in Yale, USA. The team came back with an impressive haul of medals. Year 5 started the year group expeditions with a four-day trip to Indonesia and came back with many an exciting tale of their adventures. In sport our first ever NAE games team made up of 19 boys and girls from Years 5 and 6 competed against 9 other NAE SEA schools in Vietnam. A great time was had with some good team performances. The ACSIS season 1 ended in November, with some fantastic results for DCIS. Our U16 boys football team won a bronze medal and our U12 netballers “cleaned up” with gold, silver and bronze medals in their respective divisions. There was also the Middle School Swimming Championships, with many swimmers setting personal records. It was really good to see over 90 runners from Years 3-12 representing DCIS at the ACSIS cross-country championships held at Pasir-Ris. A huge well done to our U14 Boys team who gained a bronze medal out of 19 schools. Within Primary PE it has been superb to see a record number of teams and students competing in a variety of sports in a non-competitive environment, with up to 15 teams playing each week. We have also been really pleased to introduce numerous new teams, including our first ever U11 boys and girls basketball teams, secondary girls contact rugby teams an U16 boys rugby team and several dance groups.

Dear DCIS Parents, With Christmas just around the corner, and at the end of another busy term, it seems the perfect time to reflect on what has been happening in the Primary School. We returned from our restful half term break straight into our busy UN Day preparations which saw the children busily researching the country assigned to their class, as well as making and collecting artefacts for their displays. The culmination of the week was UN Day itself with our annual parade and spectacular country displays down on the field. A big thank you to the teachers who supported to the children with their work, the parents who also helped to set up the displays and of course the Mrs Gray and Mrs Hyland who once again came up with the grand plan for the day! We have had several other celebrations this term. Our Deepavali cultural dress-up day saw 2RB and 2SL, and 3CD and 3AS present their assemblies to staff, children and parents, sharing some interesting facts and stories with us all. Thank you to the students and staff for their collaboration and hard work on this. The DCA treated us to a spooky affair for Halloween, the school looked truly terrifying thanks to the creative decorations and gruesome costumes around the place. Thank you to the DCA for frightening us even more than last year! This year, we raised awareness of Remembrance Day across the school too. You may have noticed the sea of poppies in the corridors; our first ever red and black day was a huge success and we were proud to hand over a financial contribution to the British Legion. Kindness Week, which linked with House Day, got us all thinking of ways to look after each other and was a thoroughly thought-provoking week for us all. Thank you also to Miss Sanderson and Miss Lindars for planning World Children’s Day for us. It was fantastic to see the children take a lead with their learning as they became the teachers and shared skills with their friends in other classes. Our trips continued this term with Year 1 taking part in drama workshops at Centre Stage and Year 2 visiting the National Gallery. There was great excitement as Year 5 headed off to Telunas for their annual residential, with Mr Odey and the Year 5 team. We were delighted to also send a group of children off to Ho Chi Min City for the South-East Asia NAE games led by Mr Carswell and Miss Hughes. As well as this, Mr Baines and Mr Northridge chaperoned a party of Y6 and Y7 students to the NAE STEAM festival in Bangkok. I know the children loved it – they were praised for their innovation, creativity and their impeccable behavior. Trips such as these take a great deal of preparation and planning – a special mention goes to Mr Odey for his work on the Telunas trip and to Mr Carswell for planning the NAE games and to Mr Baines for all the prep with the STEAM trip. A great number of staff have given up their time to support the children – a great big thank you to each and every one of them for their dedication to the school. We were delighted to invite our Year 6 parents into school for an Open Morning in which they found out about the transition to Secondary School. Our Year 6 children thoroughly enjoyed a day in Secondary, meeting the teachers and having a taste of secondary lessons and life as a secondary student. Christmas crept up on us and once again the DCA sprang into action with reindeer, elves and some very familiar faced gingerbread people popping up around the campus! The lower primary nativities were amazing and well-enjoyed by children, parents and some lucky grandparents too. Both nativities were absolute bonanzas and certainly got us all into the Christmas spirit! Wishing happy holidays to you all and for those who celebrate Christmas, I hope you enjoy the festivities.

Newstalk becomes the first radio programme to use text-to-speech technology to broadcast a radio programme, called 'Living with a Disability', presented by Newstalk's-own, Steve Daunt sitting in for Andrea Gilligan. Steve has a speech disability, so presents the programme with the support of text-to-speech technology. To mark UN Day of the Disabled Person, Between The Lines gave a platform to 5 people to reflect on what it's like to live with a disability in Ireland today. Among the five was Robin Barnett, the UK ambassador to Ireland who spoke honestly about his childhood and living with a disability. The other four guests were Pádraig Naughton from Arts and Disability Ireland, James Cawley and Maryam Madani from the Independent Living Movement, and Freelance Journalist, Louise Bruton. They spoke about topics as diverse as growing up, finding love in the age of Tinder and all the things you would expect from a Newstalk Panel. They talk about these topics with their experience of living with a disability in Ireland.

The United Nations have designated 17 October as the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty. The Day presents an opportunity to acknowledge the effort and struggle of people living in poverty and a chance for them to make their concerns heard. At an event organised in Dublin, President Michael D. Higgins spoke of the reasons why the day is being marked across the world, and of the importance of going beyond strategies that merely alleviate poverty, by resolving to eradicate poverty at its root causes.

Our panel discussion commemorates a momentous occasion, the 70th anniversary of the United Nations on Friday, 23rd October, the eve of “UN Day” that marks the entry into force of the Charter. Does multilateralism, the bedrock of the world organisation, matter in today’s increasing fragmenting world? Why did it matter in 1942-45? Was the post-World War Two global order truly multilateral? In particular, what presence did the global ‘South’ have in crafting it? Our panellists are Valerie Amos, Director of SOAS and long associated with the UN and international development, Winnie Byanyima, Executive Director of Oxfam International, and Thomas Weiss, one of the most eminent scholars of international relations and the politics of the UN. They will discuss and debate the UN’s role in providing the global ‘South’ an adequate platform for creating a multilateral world order in which their collective voice has been recognised—both in 1945 and in 2015. The event will be introduced by Dan Plesch, Director of CISD, and Natalie Samarasinghe, Executive Director of United Nations Association UK, and chaired by the former senior UK diplomat Sir Jeremy Greenstock, best known for his chairmanship of the UN Association in the UK and extensive experience in international politics.
