Palestinians point to Israel's retention of 600+ bodies after Trump's remark "Palestinians are pushing back against US President Donald Trump's fiery demand that Hamas return Israeli captives and bodies of those killed, reminding him that Israel has long been keeping hundreds of bodies of Palestinians. According to multiple media sources, Israel is holding 665 bodies, including those of 59 children. Israeli officials say they keep Palestinian bodies as leverage — to deter attacks, to trade in future negotiations. Palestinians and human rights groups call it something else — collective punishment." Ukraine, US to hold talks next week to end war "President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he would travel to Saudi Arabia and his team would stay on to hold talks with US officials about ending the war between Ukraine and Russia. The talks follow a letter from Zelenskyy to US President Donald Trump. "There was an apology, there was an acknowledgment that the United States has done so much for the country of Ukraine, and a sense of gratitude,"" US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff told reporters in describing the tone of Zelenskyy's letter." EU leaders agree to boost defence following decades of hesitation "European Union leaders have committed to a massive step in defence cooperation following decades of hesitation. The 27 leaders signed off on a move on Thursday to loosen budget restrictions so willing EU countries can increase military spending. They also urged the European Commission, the EU's executive branch, to explore new ways to facilitate significant defence spending in all member states, a statement said." CAIR urges Muslim immigrants not to leave US ahead of potential Trump ban "The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) warned regular immigrants in the US not to travel overseas this month ahead of potential President Donald Trump's Muslim travel ban. CAIR Government Affairs Director said they do not know ""for sure"" whether the administration will issue a new ban or which countries would be targeted. CAIR encourages the Trump administration to reconsider any plans to impose any new total travel bans on Muslim-majority countries under the guise of protecting national security, the official said." Turkish researcher to study women astronauts' health on all-female spaceflight "Begum Aydogan Mathyk, an obstetrics and gynecology researcher at the University of South Florida, will investigate the health of an all-women flight team scheduled for 2026. Underlining the lack of studies on women's health in space, she pointed out that while animal reproduction studies have been conducted in space, her approach is different. Mathyk highlighted the importance of moving women's health studies from Earth to space, as the long-term effects of space on women astronauts' reproductive health and hormonal systems remain unknown."

A graph of FSU membership growth up to the end of August was shared on our social media channels this week and it is impossible to miss the moment at which the new government began its crackdown on free expression in Britain. As listeners and viewers will already know, one of this government's earliest anti-free expression decisions was to shelve the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act. The Telegraph revealed this week that Professor Arif Ahmed, who was to be the first director for freedom of speech and academic freedom at the Office for Students, has been named as an interested party on the FSU's application for a Judicial Review of the Education Secretary's decision. This means that he will be able to make written submissions to the High Court and also appear in person with a barrister to challenge the Government on its arguments. The FSU's chief legal counsel, Dr Bryn Harris, is quoted in the article, “These proceedings are of the highest constitutional importance. For almost 350 years, the governance of this country has rested on a golden premise: ministers of the Crown may not set aside the law made by Parliament”. Underlining the urgent need for the (now paused) Higher Education Act to be activated, the Telegraph has also reported on the extent to which students on campus are scared to speak their mind for fear of being cancelled. Meanwhile, yet another ludicrous speech code was revealed this week in the Mail, this time at the World Intellectual Property Organisation, a UN agency. The latest target of the speech police is gendered language, meaning no more fishermen, Englishmen or, rather oddly, lumberjacks. Finally, two religious groups have independently raised concerns about the All Party Parliamentary Definition of Islamophobia that appears to be looming ever larger on the legislative road ahead. The Network of Sikh Organisations has written to the Deputy Prime Minister saying that this definition would negatively impact the ability of people to freely discuss religion, speak openly about historical truths, and cause an amplification of a government hierarchy for different faiths. Separately, Christian Today raises concerns that Christians who deny Islam is a saving faith could also fall foul of the law.   ‘That's Debatable!'  is edited by Jason Clift.

Title: Threats Against American Judges Amplify in Wake of Trump TrialsOver the past several months, a disturbing trend in the realm of American justice has come to light. The trials involving former President Donald Trump have unveiled escalating threats and menacing rhetoric against judges overseeing a myriad of his legal cases. This developing pattern is generating concerns about the potential dangers posed to the US judicial system and the people working within it.The intricate web of Trump's legal cases is attracting nationwide attention, and disturbingly, a surge of threats against the appointed judiciary. This rising intimidation against judges serving on these cases is rapidly becoming a topic of discussion and cause for concern among representatives of the legal fraternity, policymakers, and observers of the American judicial system.Undoubtedly, this development not only presents a threat to individual judges' safety, but also undermines the integrity of the judicial process, which forms the bedrock of the American democracy. The role of the judiciary is to impartially dispense justice, a purpose hampered by intimidation or threats of violence. This situation presents a significant challenge to the rule of law, a foundational principle of the United States that guarantees fair, equal treatment under the law.Moreover, the threats against American judges are a chilling reflection of the increasingly polarized political landscape in the United States, where political differences provoke potentially violent repercussions rather than rational debates.While this issue has been thrust into the limelight due to its association with Trump's trials, it points to a much broader problem. The increasing frequency of threats and attempts to intimidate judges overseeing diverse legal cases in recent years signals a troubling trend that surpasses any specific association with the past President's legal disputes.In addition to the direct physical dangers these threats pose, they also have a potential psychological toll on the affected judges and may influence the way judiciary work is conducted. These threats can be a source of tremendous stress and anxiety, potentially impacting judges' mental health and professional performance.Legal experts, government officials, and the general public must therefore unite to recognize and curtail this growing threat, strengthening protections for judges, preserving the integrity of the American judicial system, and above all, upholding the rule of law.Underlining this point, it is crucial to remember that an impartial judiciary, free from intimidation and threat, is not merely a pillar of the American legal framework. It is also a cornerstone of a democratic society, a place where even the most politically influential individuals are held accountable for their actions. For democracy to thrive, it is vital that those tasked with dispensing justice are able to do so without fear or favor.

In a recent conversation, former President Donald Trump partook in an unconventional discussion with radio host Hugh Hewitt, an established voice among conservative thinkers. During the expansive talk, the former Commander-in-Chief made a surprise proposition regarding President Joe Biden's potential for participation in the forthcoming presidential debates. Central to Trump's contention was the insinuation that perhaps some kind of stimulant might be influencing Biden's performance. The core of Trump's argument during the radio chat revolved around the unexpected discovery last summer of a notable substance in the heart of the nation's capital. Reports suggested that the substance in question, found in the White House lobby near the West Executive Avenue entrance, was cocaine. Trump then took this revelation, weaving it into his argument regarding Biden's potential participation in the debates. Trump brought attention to Biden's conduct during a recent important assembly in the country. The former President observed stark fluctuations in Biden's energy levels during this assembly, which he seemed to find rather curious. His assertion was that Biden started the meeting with an unusually elevated sense of vigor, declining rapidly towards the end, something Trump found suspicious. In expressing his interest in participating in imminent debates, Trump proposed an additional caveat. To ensure a level playing field, he suggested that candidates, particularly President Biden, undergo a drug test ahead of the debates. This idea stemmed from his underlying suspicion around the unexpected energy fluctuations noted in his counterpart's performance. When the radio host pressed further to clarify if Trump was outright accusing Biden of cocaine use, the former president chose to leave the topic more nebulous. He did not specify the exact nature of his allegation but maintained his stance that Biden's performance seemed abnormally heightened, similar to being 'higher than a kite.' Regardless of allegations or insinuations, Trump minced no words in stating his opinion about Biden's profound address. In his estimation, it was one of the most disappointing such displays he had witnessed. The erstwhile President used the opportunity to criticise the content and delivery of the address, terming it anything but an accurate representation of the American state. In Trump's assessment, he found discrepancy between the somnolent image frequently projected by Biden and the surprising level of energy exhibited in the address. This led him to the conclusion that there may be external aids influencing Biden's energy levels. The abrupt change in demeanor, as Trump observed, highlighted an inconsistent landscape. Underlining the importance of the State of the Union address, Trump stated his disappointment as he watched an address that he believed did not resonate with the people. The former president asserted that the intention of the address is to mirror the state of the nation; in this case, he felt the connection missed its mark. In a summarizing note, Trump conveyed a mix of anticipation and concern about the impending presidential debates. He expressed a strong desire to return to the debating stage, albeit with an extra layer of scrutiny. An integral part of his recommendation was to incorporate drug testing into the process as a standard measure. As part of his discussion with Hugh Hewitt, Trump comprehensively addressed the recent cocaine discovery at the White House. While the former president did not directly connect the discovery with the current administration, he did allude to a potential link, an indication that further clarification is needed in the interest of transparency. Looking forward, Trump's comments left many speculating about the probability of implementing pre-debate drug testing procedures. The former president seemed to perceive it as an essential benchmark for facilitating fair and unbiased debates. While his suggestion may be controversial, it continues to spark conversations among political commentators and the wider public. In the heart of Trump's comments was his critique of the current administration's representation of the American people. He underscored his discontentment with what he described as a lack of proper representation, resonating with his listeners who share similar viewpoints. Trump retains his eager readiness to step into the debating arena once again, craving the platform it offers him to voice his views. However, his desire for the inclusion of drug testing for participants, especially President Biden, adds an unexpected dimension to his eagerness to return to political engagement. While the dust has far from settled on this contentious discourse, it undeniably introduces a novel examination of presidential debates. Only time will highlight if former President Donald Trump's unconventional proposition regarding drug testing will indeed influence future presidential debates or fade as a fleeting suggestion in an ever-evolving political landscape.

Television personality Bill Maher, renowned host on HBO and, put forth a spirited critique of the mainstream media's reporting on the potential 2024 presidential race during his most recent episode of 'Real Time with Bill Maher'. Certainly striking a chord, Maher admonished a 'painting with too broad a brush' approach to reporting, reiterating that 'Donald Trump is not equivalent to Adolf Hitler.' Maher chided the media, saying that the practice of constantly 'cranking the dial of rhetoric all the way up' must discontinue. He then proceeded to showcase an illustration of his point, using a clip of Fox News's Sean Hannity claiming, 'There's not a single aspect that hasn't deteriorated under Joe Biden.' Maher artfully countered this statement with a satirical quip indicating a certain mundane exaggeration in Hannity's remarks. Maher's sarcastic response, 'As if a slight increase in the price of Mars bars is equivalent to announcing the death of the American dream', served to repudiate the outlandish comment. With a humor-laced snarkiness designed to subtly undercut the hyperbolic impact, Maher drove home the point that not everything has gone from bad to worse under President Biden's reign. Continuing his satirical stretch, Maher playfully suggested, 'According to this logic, under Biden, even the flowers have lost their scent, internet speeds have slumped, and breakfast at IHOP has become stickier. Even our waning romance could be attributed to Biden, as if even the potency of the illegally circulating fentanyl has dipped.' Premised on remarking the repetition of doomsday language, Maher observed, 'It's wearisome to persistently listen to the same old criticisms regurgitated—criticisms that we know would be leveled regardless of the reality on the ground.' In this vein, Maher sought to demonstrate an innate bias in the often-repeated fractious assessments of President Biden's performance. Yet, Maher was not without a sense of balance. He admitted Biden might not be his first choice of ally in a potentially perilous situation, cleverly using an analogy with the popular Netflix series 'Squid Game'. Underlining a subtle acknowledgement of Biden's perceived weaknesses, he quipped, 'Would I pick Joe Biden as my partner in a Squid Games life-or-death scenario? No.' Still, Maher wasn't all criticism for the Biden administration. The 'Real Time' host complimented Biden on certain positive macro-economic indicators, such as low unemployment rates and a record-breaking stock market, even in the face of roaring inflation that continues to batter the U.S. economy. Subsequently, Maher shifted his focus to the governor of the Sunshine State, Ron DeSantis, posing a curious question as to why the left-leaning media constantly reacts with utmost intensity at any mention of the Florida governor. Maher playfully instructed the media to not always dial their criticism 'up to the maximum level' when it comes to Governor DeSantis. Maher pointed out that there was a time when liberal reports were brimming with articles claiming DeSantis was not just at par with Trump when it came to critique, but potentially even worse. In Maher's view, there were suggestions being made that DeSantis was graver danger—a statement he then humorously compared to referring to the openly controversial Trump as Hitler. Maher then neatly brought the point home, jesting, 'Just to clear things up, Donald Trump is not Adolf Hitler.' Adding an extra ounce of his well-known sardonic humor, he continued, 'He's merely a staunch admirer.' In questioning the necessity of unwarranted escalation in rhetoric, Maher reiterated his point, 'Does every disagreement need to skyrocket to the highest levels of confrontation?' Demonstrating a sort of exhausted frustration with the polarized discussion climate, Maher hinted at the need for more nuanced, varied, and level-headed evaluations of political figures. Driving home his point yet again, Maher said, 'Surely it's possible to voice your disagreement with DeSantis, without necessarily likening him to Trump?' His critique here emphasized a plea for differentiation, for understanding that different conservative figures may embrace different facets of conservative values, and not necessarily follow identical ideological paths.

This FPSO, operational in the North Sea since 2017, is set to be modified for Buchan's redevelopment, emphasizing the project's scale as one of the North Sea's largest developments. Jersey Oil and Gas has successfully farmed out the project to two major companies, enhancing its financial and operational foundation. Benitz also reflected on the company's journey, from acquiring a company out of administration in 2015 to becoming a significant player in the North Sea exploration and development sector. The company's strategy has led to a retained 20% interest in the Buchan project, with a projected net cash flow exceeding £500 million. The presentation outlined the project's robust economics, funding arrangements, and the expected timeline towards first oil, highlighting the company's low-carbon vision and the team's entrepreneurial spirit. Benitz also addressed the disconnect between the market cap and the core NAV of the assets, presenting a compelling investment case based on high-quality development, strategic partnerships, and significant future cash flow potential. This strategic update from Jersey Oil and Gas PLC illustrates a clear path to production, emphasising the company's resilience, strategic acquisitions, and focus on carbon-efficient operations, positioning it as a significant player in the UK North Sea oil and gas sector. #ProactiveInvestors #JerseyOilAndGas #AndrewBenitz #ProactiveInvestors #OilAndGasIndustry #NorthSeaOil #FPSO #BuchanOilField #EnergySector #InvestorForum #OilFieldDevelopment #OffshoreDrilling #UKOilAndGas #EnergyInvestment #LowCarbonEnergy #OilAndGasExploration #StrategicPartnerships #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #FinancialPerformance #OilPriceProtection #ProjectSanction #OilAndGasEngineering #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Welcome to the first of a few special Legal Week 2024 edition episodes of "The Geek in Review," where we looked for innovative and creative ideas on the road and recorded live from the bustling environment of the 2024 Legal Week conference in New York. Marlene Gebauer notes the transformation of Legal Week into a thought leadership conference, with a special mention of keynote speaker Bryan Cranston's impactful talk on storytelling, branding, and the thoughtful application of AI in both the acting world and the legal tech space. Joey Seeber, the guest for this episode, brings his experience and insights as the representative of Level Legal, a company that recently celebrated its 15th anniversary. Seeber shares the origin story of Level Legal, starting from its humble beginnings in 2009 in East Texas, evolving from a document review team within a law firm to a full-service eDiscovery and forensics company based in Dallas. Underlining the transition from paper to digital and the challenges of data hygiene, Seeber emphasizes the company's growth and its focus on human-centric service in the legal tech industry. Discussing the influence of generative AI and other technological advancements on legal services, Seeber provides a grounded perspective on the hype versus the reality of AI's impact on the industry. He stresses the importance of human-to-human connections and hospitality in legal services, suggesting that while technical skills are essential, the ability to serve and delight clients sets Level Legal apart. Seeber notes the challenges of adapting to various eDiscovery platforms, the importance of a diverse skill set among staff, and the evolving roles within the legal tech ecosystem. Seeber's vision for Level Legal includes a focus on what he terms the "excellence reflex" – a combination of curiosity, service instinct, and the anticipation of client needs. In the "crystal ball" segment, Seeber cautiously predicts the trajectory of generative AI in legal tech, suggesting that significant changes may be more gradual than some expect. He reflects on the legal industry's slow pace of adoption and the importance of integrating new technologies thoughtfully and effectively.   Listen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠ Contact Us:  Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@gebauerm⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@glambert⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads: @glambertpod or @gebauerm66Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Transcript

Interview with Marshall Abbott, Director & CEO of Arrow Exploration Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/arrow-exploration-axl-high-margin-oil-production-funds-development-1801Recording date: 16th January 2024Colombian Producer Poised for Breakout GrowthArrow Exploration holds prime acreage in the oil-rich Llanos Basin of Colombia, where it has built steady production growth and proven oil well economics. After doubling 2023 output to 3,280 barrels per day, the company anticipates replicating its success in 2024. "We have doubled production from the beginning of last year to now and we feel we're on a path to double production again by the end of 2024," stated CEO Marshall Abbott.The current production base generates robust cash flow, funding an active $45 million drilling campaign this year. Arrow will drill 15 new wells, focused on lower-risk development locations, but also testing "a couple of exciting exploration prospects." Prior 3D seismic imaging helps de-risk reservoir targets within the company's core holdings.Most tantalizing is the shift towards horizontal drilling. Arrow has scheduled six horizontal wells in 2024, with over 1,000 barrels per day expected from each. "The technology is fabulous and geost steering is a fun part of the game," remarked Abbott. By unlocking greater contact with reservoir rock, horizontal completions translate to substantially higher recovery rates and value creation.Underlining its financial position, Arrow held approximately $15 million in cash exiting 2023, with no debt obligations. Operating cash flow is on track to average $2.5-3 million monthly this year after royalties. The scaled-up drilling program funded through internal resources provides non-dilutive growth. Abbott stressed, "From a financial perspective we're very healthy."Trading at just 2x cash flow, Arrow remains undervalued relative to near-term production and cash flow expansion. Once the market recognizes Colombia's high-margin barrels and Arrow's consistent execution, shares could re-rate materially higher.—View Arrow Exploration's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/arrow-explorationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

At the end of 2022, the world was introduced to ChatGPT, which has been a watershed moment for artificial intelligence as it enables millions of regular users to experiment with AI. In just a year, it has changed so much of how we work and search for information on the internet. So, what will 2024 and beyond hold in store for us? In this interview with Biznews, futurist Pieter Geldenhuys, the Director at the Institute for Technology and Innovation, dives into several technological developments that are shaping our world including robo air taxis, moon mining for helium-3 as an alternative energy source, post-quantum computing, smart glasses, and the hu.ma.ne smart pin. Underlining these technology developments, he says, are currents that are shaping our world which includes a demographic decline in the northern hemisphere that will lead to a severe drop in consumption. By 3035, he says, “a reality might be that a company would be proud to announce our revenue only fell by 3% while our competitors fell by 8%.” Peak consumption will have a severe impact on Africa with its growing population but the light at the end of the tunnel for Africa, he says, is for the continent to embrace new types of technology, but that “does mean that the mindset of technology adoption will have to change significantly."

Kim and Spencer discuss the importance of cash flow, or financial flow, over stagnation in wealth building. They argue that one of the often-overlooked principles of prosperity is the necessity for cash flow rather than letting money sit idly. For them, cash flow refers not only to money coming in but also the money going out. Important elements of cash flow include expenses, investments in real estate and life insurance, and outgoing cash flow in general.  Prosperity Thinkers is proud to be an affiliate of the transformative Gravy Stack movement, helping individuals around the world unlock their potential and achieve financial freedom.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence and data science, today's episode of the Tech Talks Daily Podcast brings forth a critically important yet often overlooked aspect—securing data through its entire lifecycle. Our esteemed guest is Anand Kashyap, the CEO and Co-founder of Fortanix, a company that has pioneered in the realm of confidential computing.  Anand and his team at Fortanix have uniquely positioned themselves in the industry, focusing not just on securing stored or in-transit data, but also data while it's being processed. As AI models increasingly become the linchpins for competitive advantage, it's no longer just about the intricacies of these models but the treasure trove of data that fuels them. Giants like Google and Microsoft, armed with vast amounts of data, seem to have an edge. Yet, this edge brings its own challenges around the ethics, privacy, and compliance of using such data—questions that are resonating loudly, not just in the EU under the shadows of regulations like GDPR, but across the globe, including the US. During our conversation, Anand demystified the concept of confidential computing, a term that is gradually becoming a cornerstone in the discussion around data security. At its core, confidential computing involves leveraging hardware-based trusted execution environments to protect both data and code. One might wonder how this impacts the realm of privacy regulations. Interestingly, confidential computing provides an effective, transparent mechanism to demonstrate compliance without diminishing the operational integrity of AI models. As the conversation unfolded, Anand offered valuable insights, pointing out that while confidential computing does augment runtime security, it is not a silver bullet. The necessity for well-crafted applications and comprehensive security measures remains unabated. He emphasized that this form of computing, though robust in security mechanisms, does not negate the need for diligent application development and maintenance. We also touched upon the far-reaching implications of data privacy laws like GDPR on the global architecture of data solutions.  Anand highlighted how such regulations are catalyzing the adoption of confidential computing solutions across different jurisdictions, with an intriguing possibility of creating sovereign cloud zones within public clouds. Ethical considerations in data protection strategies occupied a significant segment of our discussion. With a discerning perspective, Anand shared his thoughts on deploying confidential computing for a myriad of new use cases, from healthcare to financial services. Anand, who continually evolves through self-education, including listening to thought-provoking podcasts, left us with an enriching viewpoint on the challenges and opportunities lying ahead in the data security spectrum. As the spotlight continues to shine on AI and data, understanding how to secure this data effectively is not just an operational need but an ethical imperative. This conversation with Anand Kashyap illuminates that pathway, shedding light on both the potential and the limitations of confidential computing.  Whether you are a business leader, a tech enthusiast, or someone deeply involved in data privacy concerns, this episode offers a comprehensive lens through which to view the evolving narrative of data security.

To most of us, learning something "the hard way" implies wasted time and effort. Good teaching, we believe, should be creatively tailored to the different learning styles of students and should use strategies that make learning easier. Make It Stick turns fashionable ideas like these on their head. Drawing on recent discoveries in cognitive psychology and other disciplines, the authors offer concrete techniques for becoming more productive learners.Memory plays a central role in our ability to carry out complex cognitive tasks, such as applying knowledge to problems never before encountered and drawing inferences from facts already known. New insights into how memory is encoded, consolidated, and later retrieved have led to a better understanding of how we learn. Grappling with the impediments that make learning challenging leads both to more complex mastery and better retention of what was learned.Many common study habits and practice routines turn out to be counterproductive. Underlining and highlighting, rereading, cramming, and single-minded repetition of new skills create the illusion of mastery, but gains fade quickly. More complex and durable learning come from self-testing, introducing certain difficulties in practice, waiting to re-study new material until a little forgetting has set in, and interleaving the practice of one skill or topic with another. Speaking most urgently to students, teachers, trainers, and athletes, Make It Stick will appeal to all those interested in the challenge of lifelong learning and self-improvement.On this episode of The Burleson Box, we hear from Professor Henry L. "Roddy" Roediger III, author of Make it Stick about the importance for students and teachers to know whose advice to take on how best to go about learning, what should we really be asking if we want to solve complex problems, the concept of massed practice and why our faith in it is misplaced, how learning and experience come together, how to avoid illusions of knowing, and how we can be more mindful about how mastery really works.***The Burleson Box is brought to you by In Hand Dental:Are you trying to increase your treatment plan close rates while also increasing revenue?

We speak to his former coach Stuart Blunt about the 19-year-old Welshman, who Blunt describes as a "British Filippo Ganna".We've got a Jumbo-Visma double, starting with the latest from team manager Richard Plugge on the Dutch team's search for a new lead sponsor. Plugge refuses to confirm press rumours of discussions with Saudi enterprise Neom City, but says there's been global interest in backing the team that features Jonas Vingegaard, Wout van Aert and Primož Roglič and that he's confident a deal will soon be concluded.Underlining their long-term commitment to the sport, Jumbo-Visma have also been busy in the transfer market. We reveal the latest on their rumoured deal with Ineos GC prospect Ben Tulett, and we speak to their head of development Robert de Groot about their newly announced signing of three British 17 year olds to their development team, as squad that's designed to keep them competitive but at relatively low cost.

We examine the reasons for the dispute that left the Italian race looking into the abyss. Every year there's a major Tour non-selection story and this year's has featured four-time champion Chris Froome, who has been passed over by his Israel-PremierTech team. We look at what was behind that decision and at what's next for Froome, whose immediate racing future is decidedly uncertain.Support the show

What God did at Pentecost is remarkable. Underlining the fact that the the Good News of our salvation in Christ is for all people, the Spirit enabled the apostles to preach in the languages of everyone who was present. As much as we marvel at what the Holy Spirit did on this day, we might overlook the ever greater miracle He continues to do this day in our midst.

Debi Hake was drawn to counseling as a profession after working in several non-profit, community and church positions, the education field, and being a foster parent for many years.

Today, on the Rational Reminder Podcast, we are tackling a few interesting topics that tie into recent and forthcoming conversations with our amazing guests. In this 'us only' episode, we are focusing on thematic ETFs and the truth about dividend investing. After a quick look at The Quick Fix by Jesse Singal, some reflections on the past six months at ARK Invest, and the lessons we can still learn from the dot-com crash, we get into the meat of today's episode by way of Ben's recent experiences on a discussion panel about the utility of thematic investing. From there, we transition into the 'relevance of dividend irrelevance' and share some of the most illuminating and pertinent findings. In the end, our argument is simply that dividends are not the way to go and are an inefficient policy on many fronts. This has not deterred many investors, however, and we get to grips with the kinds of behaviours associated with dividends before espousing what this can mean for you and your objectives. To catch all of this and links to some of the best research available, be sure to listen in with us today.   Key Points From This Episode:   Today's book review of The Quick Fix by Jesse Singal and its critique of popular psychology. [0:12:30] Inflows at ARK Invest; the startling commitment that we are currently seeing. [0:21:48] Reflections and information that we dug up on the dot-com crash in the '90s.
