Unpacking the Far-Reaching Impacts of Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill'. Matt dives into the newly passed Republican budget bill alongside communications expert Mark Bergman. The bill's controversial health and food assistance cuts are set to significantly affect millions of Americans, including the loss of healthcare for 17 million people. With a handful of Republican Senators saying the quiet part out loud--that this is a human and political disaster--the big question is: are they right? 00:34 Introducing the Guest: Mark Bergman04:15 Political Implications for Republicans12:47 Trump-Musk Feud and Campaign Dynamics16:08 Democratic Messaging and Strategy20:42 Social Media Influence in Politics29:23 Navigator Research Insights33:43 Healthcare and Messaging37:05 Cliff Joins the Discussion38:39 Introducing the Soundcheck Fund42:30 Critique of Republican Policies48:02 Conclusion and Final Thoughts
Imaginez une balle posée contre un mur vertical. À l'arrêt, elle tombe. Classique. Mais maintenant, imaginez qu'elle commence à grimper toute seule, lentement mais sûrement, sans moteur, sans aimant, sans trucage. Ça semble impossible ? Et pourtant, c'est ce qu'ont réussi des chercheurs de l'Université de Waterloo, au Canada. Leur expérience repose sur un principe de physique méconnu mais fascinant : l'asymétrie des frottements dans un système vibré.Le dispositifLe mur n'est pas totalement passif : il est vibré verticalement à haute fréquence. En d'autres termes, il oscille de haut en bas, des dizaines de fois par seconde. C'est ce mouvement qui alimente le système en énergie.La balle, quant à elle, est souple, élastique et adhérente. Elle est légèrement comprimée contre le mur, ce qui crée un contact ferme. Ce point est crucial : le comportement de la balle dépend de sa forme et de sa capacité à se déformer au contact.Le cœur du phénomène : briser la symétrie temporelleQuand un objet est soumis à des vibrations périodiques, on pourrait penser que le mouvement est symétrique : autant d'énergie vers le haut que vers le bas, donc aucun déplacement net. Mais ici, les chercheurs exploitent une rupture de symétrie temporelle induite par la nature du contact entre la balle et le mur.Lors des phases descendantes des vibrations, la balle a tendance à rester collée au mur (par adhérence et inertie). Mais quand le mur remonte rapidement, la balle, plus lente à réagir, est légèrement décollée, comprimée puis relâchée, ce qui provoque un mini bond vers le haut. Ce déséquilibre dans la dynamique des contacts produit une force moyenne dirigée vers le haut.Un moteur sans moteurCe type de mouvement est un cas particulier de ce qu'on appelle un moteur brownien ratchet, ou "cliquet brownien". C'est un système dans lequel une source d'énergie non dirigée (ici : les vibrations) peut être transformée en mouvement dirigé, grâce à une asymétrie structurale ou matérielle.La combinaison :d'une base vibrante,d'une balle souple avec un comportement non linéaire,et d'un frottement directionnel variable selon les phases du cycle,…permet à la balle de grimper sans aucune commande externe.Une prouesse fondamentaleCette expérience n'est pas juste une curiosité : elle ouvre des pistes en robotique douce, en nanotechnologie, ou pour le transport passif de matériaux dans des environnements où l'énergie est diffusée de façon globale et non ciblée. Ce genre de système pourrait inspirer des machines capables de se déplacer ou de grimper sans moteur, alimentées uniquement par des vibrations ambiantes. Hébergé par Acast.

In episode 2 of Season 4, we consider how the science of climate change has become one of the key issues defining the evangelical mindset. We speak with Jon Peerbolt, an international aid worker for the NGO Novi who was raised among onion farmers in Michigan by parents who were deeply entrenched in the conservative Christian ecosystem. We also interview Dr. Ryan Juskus, assistant professor and faculty director at Notre Dames' Institute for Social Concerns who walks us through the historical roots of environmentalism within the evangelical movement. Finally, we talk with Dr. Paul Thagard, distinguished professor of philosophy emeritus at the University of Waterloo, who spent his career working in the cognitive sciences, explaining why the human mind is so susceptible to misinformation.

Hasta al final de una semana que comenzamos pendientes de Ávalos y Colomer en el Tribunal Supremo la hemos visto terminada con el Constitucional hablando de la ley de amnistía, un texto negociado por cierto por Santos Cerdán, sí sí el mismo, con Carles Puigdemont en Waterloo donde sigue fugado el expresident que todavía tiene vigente la orden de detención por delito de malversación. Por eso hoy ha cargado contra los jueces del Tribunal Supremo a los que acusa de prevaricar al loro, como están las cabezas dice, a las órdenes del rey. Que el margen prevaricador del Supremo se va estrechando, sé ...
By entering this war, the US is accelerating toward direct conflict with opposing great powers. Gog and Magog may soon enact the prophesied battle of Armageddon. What better time to attain divinization? The secret of receiving the grace of the Rapture is to surrender to the Presence of the Transcendent Absolute God-Self by simply letting go of all else.

It's Wednesday, June 25th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus 313 attacks on Christians in India this year The United Christian Forum has recorded 313 attacks on Christians in India during the first five months of this year. That's over two attacks per day, a trend that has held since 2023. Attacks have risen significantly since 2014 when only 127 incidents were recorded A. C. Michael with United Christian Forum warned, “If this trend is not stopped immediately, it will threaten the identity and existence of the Indian Christian community in its motherland.” Please pray for the persecuted church in India. The country is ranked 11th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult countries to be a Christian. 80% of young French Protestants optimistic about future The Protestant Federation of France released a survey of young Protestants in the country. Seventy-seven percent of respondents cited the Bible as their primary source of spiritual information ahead of other sources like discussion groups and digital content. Eighty percent of these young Protestants in France are optimistic about the future compared to 58% of 15 to 30-year-olds nationally. Researchers noted that young Protestants view their faith as not just a personal but also a public commitment. 1 Timothy 4:12 says, “Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.” Netanyahu commends President Trump for bombing Iran's nuclear sites Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu commended President Donald Trump for authorizing the June 22nd “Operation Midnight Hammer” which led to America's bombing of Iranian nuclear sites NETANYAHU: “Congratulations President Trump! Your bold decision to target Iran's nuclear facilities with the awesome and righteous might of the United States will change history. “In Operation Rising Lion, Israel has done truly amazing things. But in tonight's action against Iran's nuclear facilities, America has been truly unsurpassed. It has done what no other country on Earth could do. “History will record that President Trump acted to deny the world's most dangerous regime, the world's most dangerous weapons. His leadership today has created a pivot of history that can help lead the Middle East and beyond to a future of prosperity and peace. “President Trump and I often say, ‘Peace through strength!' First comes strength, then comes peace.” U.S. strike set back Iran's nuclear program by only a few months The New York Times reports that a preliminary classified U.S. report says the American bombing of three nuclear sites in Iran set back the country's nuclear program by only a few months. The strikes sealed off the entrances to two of the facilities but did not collapse their underground buildings. Before the attack, U.S. intelligence agencies had said that if Iran tried to rush to make a bomb, it would take about three months. After the U.S. bombing run and days of attacks by the Israeli Air Force, the report by the Defense Intelligence Agency estimated that the program had been delayed, but by less than six months. The report also said that much of Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium was moved before the strikes, which destroyed little of the nuclear material. Iran may have moved some of that to secret locations. Presidential Commission on Religious Liberty holds first meeting The Presidential Commission on Religious Liberty held its first meeting last Monday at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C. Texas Republican Lt. Governor Dan Patrick chaired the meeting which included religious leaders and legal experts. Listen to comments from former U.S. Housing Secretary Dr. Ben Carson. CARSON: “This commission promotes freedom of beliefs and that spiritual aspect of our existence that advances civilization. We will strive to facilitate the maintenance of one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” Back in May, President Donald Trump established the commission by executive order to advise him on protecting religious liberty in the United States. Students for Life to give away nearly 400,000 diapers Students for Life of America is planning the largest diaper giveaway this coming Saturday on Capitol Hill. The pro-life group will distribute 392,715 diapers. Each one represents an unborn baby murdered at Planned Parenthood abortion mills, according to its 2022-23 annual report. Kristan Hawkins, the president of Students for Life of America, said, “While this diaper drive is a large, singular feat, we hope it drives the pro-life movement to keep pushing Congress to defund abortion mills, hold up and encourage mothers and families, and be pillars of Life in their communities.” Proverbs 24:11 says, “Deliver those who are drawn toward death, and hold back those stumbling to the slaughter.” U.S. giving up 6.3% compared to 2023 A new report from Giving USA found that U.S. charitable giving increased to $592.5 billion in 2024. Total giving was up only 6.3% last year compared to 2023. Adjusted for inflation, it was up only 3.3%. Every type of recipient organization saw an increase in donations in current dollars. However, religious groups were the only ones to see a slight decrease in giving when adjusted for inflation. U.S. Marshals rescued 60 missing children & arrested child predators The U.S. Marshals Service rescued 60 missing children during an operation in Florida this month. The operation also led to the arrests of eight individuals, including child predators. William Berger, U.S. Marshal for the Middle District of Florida, said the operation “signifies the most successful missing child recovery effort in the history of the United States Marshals Service. … “The unique part of this operation was the fact that underaged, critically missing children … were not only recovered but were … provided with physical and psychological care. This operation further included follow-up assistance in hopes that these youths will not return to the streets to be further victimized.” 10 Worldview listeners gave $2,132 to fund our annual budget And finally, toward our $123,500 goal by Monday, June 30th to fully fund The Worldview annual budget for our 6-member team, 10 listeners stepped up to the plate. Our thanks to an anonymous donor who gave $7, Daniel and Abigail in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada who gave $25 as well as Luke in Bastrop, Texas and Glenn and Linda in Palmdale, California – both of whom gave $50. We're grateful to God for John in Kentwood, Michigan who gave $100, Robin in Simsbury, Connecticut who gave $120, and Gena in Youngsville, Louisiana who gave $176. And we were touched by the generosity of Emilia in Greenwood, Missouri who gave $244, Thomas in Spokane, Washington who pledged $30 per month for 12 months for a gift of $360, and Nellie in Caldwell, Idaho who gave $1,000. Those 10 Worldview listeners gave a total of $2,132. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (Drum roll sound effect) $67,533.55 (People clapping and cheering sound effect) That means by this coming Monday, June 30th, we need to raise a whopping $55,966.45 in just 6 days. That's $9,327.74 per day! We are looking for 9 super donors. Could you give $10,000? Or perhaps you feel the Lord prompting you to become one of 3 businesspeople who could give $5,000? Or one of 5 businesspeople who could contribute $2,500? If so, those donations would total $37,500. Then, we would need another 7 people to pledge $100/month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200. And another 14 people to pledge $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600? Please, go to TheWorldview.com and click on Give on the top right.

This week marks the 210th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo, the epic battle that resulted in the defeat of Napoleon and the rewriting of European history. But recent research has revealed that one man who fought at the battle had a fascinating connection with Australia. Lieutenant Andrew White of the Royal Engineers had been born in the fledgling colony of NSW, the son of a convict. His journey from colonial child to gentleman officer serving on the staff of the Duke of Wellington is one of the most remarkable tales of early Australia. Join Mat as he tells the story of Andrew White, Australia's first returned serviceman and only Waterloo veteran.Presenter: Mat McLachlanProducer: Jess StebnickiJoin one of our battlefield tours and walk in the footsteps of the Anzacs!

Te gast zijn Dick den Bakker en Eric van 't Zelfde en we spreken over goed onderwijs, gemeenschapszin en liefde naar aanleiding van hun boeken, Het ambacht van de schoolbestuurder, naar een pedagogische bestuurscultuur en Super sociaal, waarom een schooldirecteur nu voor daklozen zorgt.Dick werkt in zijn boek een radicaal andere kijk op de schoolbestuurder uit en daarmee op goed onderwijs. In plaats van technisch-instrumenteel besturen, leidinggeven en lesgeven, pleit Dick voor de mens en de pedagogiek. Onderwijs besturen is een ambacht, net als het werk van schoolleider en leraar, waarin je op vier manieren goed handelt: bescheiden, liefdevol, vanuit besef van niet-maakbaarheid en vanuit gemeenschapszin. In bestuurlijke taal noemt Dick zijn visie gekscherend community governance. Daarin heeft het technisch-instrumentele handelen een plek, maar de kern is het als schoolgemeenschap gezamenlijk liefdevol-begrenzend pedagogisch aanmodderen.Eric beschrijft in zijn boek zijn reis door het onderwijs tot aan zijn werk als sociaal werker in de Pauluskerk te Rotterdam. Zijn succesvolle reis als leraar en leidinggevende is doordrenkt van liefde voor leerlingen, leraren en goed onderwijs. Totdat hij als rector tegen een schoolcultuur opliep, waarin niet de leerlingen, de schoolgemeenschap en goed onderwijs de lakmoesproef waren, maar de belangen van enkele individuen. Toen hij die cultuur wilde veranderen, vond hij zijn Waterloo als rector en hervond hij zichzelf als sociaal werker. Deze podcast is mede mogelijk gemaakt door schoolleidersopleiding ATTC, onderwijsadvies School Matters en rustplek De vallei van het goede leven.

I'm Still Not Over My PhD — 15 Years LaterIt's been almost 15 years since I ended my PhD. I graduated in 2011.And if I'm being honest, I'm still not over it.I came in strong—undergrad and master's at one of the best engineering schools in the world. The first in my family to get an university degree told me I was no slouch. I thought I'd accelerate through a top business school, graduate in four years, and be on my way. Perhaps being a business professor or management consultant.But that's not what happened.What happened was… grief, confusion, silence, rejection.Two years of wandering at the beginning of my PhD program, trying to find mentors and figuring out me. I eventually found extraordinary mentors that pushed me every day and were often there to listen to lement.A job market that punished my pedigree— Canadian schools just don't have the same cache in the market.I can't tell you the number of times I heard: Waterloo what?Ivey who?I didn't know about the US academic market, so I never applied to those programs. I WAS living my dream schools.Endless ambiguity and crushing self-doubt.I nearly quit. Perhaps, more than once.I had a newborn one the way and a toddler. I was ready to work in a factory for nearly minimum wage if one more door closed.Then, one opened at one institution. I've been here ever since.But the scars linger.The questions. The bitterness. The confusion over why some thrive and others feel like they never quite click. Even today.And the deep, unshakable sense that I had to figure it out alone.That's why I built the R3ciprocity Project—to help fix this broken system. I've spent embarrassingly amounts of money and time trying to build this platform because of it.I get the same rejection. The same silence.But, I keep going forward because I know that this is important.I get the private messages and nods.If you're in it right now and struggling, you're not weak. I can tell you the majority of the professors out there feel the same way that I do. You just don't see it.You're not alone.You're living through what most of us never talk about.Keep going.
It's Monday, June 16th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Pakistani Christian acquitted of blasphemy against Islam charge Last Thursday, a Pakistani judge acquitted a 28-year-old Christian named Farhan Masih of blasphemy against Islam and terrorism charges after the prosecution failed to prove its case against him, reports Morningstar News. Masih had developed a mental illness due to excessive use of synthetic drugs and was entrapped in the false accusation by the complainant. According to Open Doors, Pakistan is the eighth most difficult country worldwide in which to live for Christians. Dear God, we thank you for enabling Farhan Masih, this Pakistani Christian, to be acquitted. Amen. Israel attacks Iran over atomic weapon; Iran retaliates Israel launched blistering attacks on the heart of Iran's nuclear and military structure Friday, deploying warplanes and drones previously smuggled into the country to assault key facilities and kill top generals and scientists, reports the Associated Press. Israeli Prime Minister Benajmin Netanyahu explained. NETANYAHU: “Moments ago, Israel launched Operation Rising Lion, a targeted military operation to roll back the Iranian threat to Israel's very survival. This operation will continue for as many days as it takes to remove this threat. For decades, the tyrants of Tehran have brazenly, openly called for Israel's destruction. They backed up their genocidal rhetoric with a program to develop nuclear weapons. “In recent years, Iran has produced enough highly enriched uranium for nine atom bombs – nine! In recent months, Iran has taken steps that it has never taken before, steps to weaponize this enriched uranium. If not stopped, Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in a very short time. It could be a year. It could be within a few months.” Iran retaliated by firing waves of ballistic missiles at Israel, where explosions flared in the skies over Jerusalem and Tel Aviv and shook the buildings below. The Israeli military urged civilians to head to shelter, as missiles damaged homes and killed two people. U.S. Senate considers defunding Planned Parenthood In the midst of the U.S. Senate's ongoing debate about the budget, they are determining whether to defund Planned Parenthood, as President Trump has requested, reports Liberty Counsel Action. The situation is fluid and can change at any moment because of the razor-thin margin of votes. Only two weeks remain to get the budget on President Trump's desk. Whether or not your two U.S. Senators are Republicans or Democrats, please call them at 202-224-3121 – any time of the day or night -- and urge them to DEFUND Planned Parenthood. Democratic Minnesota Rep. killed and Minnesota Senator injured in targeted attack A Minnesota Democratic lawmaker and her husband were shot and killed in their home early Saturday by someone posing as a police officer and a second Democratic lawmaker and his wife were wounded in what some have described as “targeted political violence,” reports the Associated Press. Former Democratic House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her spouse were killed in their Brooklyn Park home. The other lawmaker, Democratic State Senator John Hoffman, and his wife, were shot multiple times in Champlin, a suburb of Minneapolis. Bob Jacobson, Minnesota Commissioner of Public Safety, spoke at a press conference. JACOBSON: “This is a dark day today for Minnesota and for democracy, but we will not allow fear or violence to define who we are or how we move forward.” The gunman has been identified as Vance Luther Boelter, whom Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had previously appointed to the Governor's Workforce Development Council. Christian singer Michael Tait confesses homosexual conduct & drug abuse Last Tuesday, Michael Tait, the former lead singer of the Christian rock band Newsboys and a member of the Grammy-winning group DC Talk, publicly confessed to a history of "reckless and destructive behavior," including drug and alcohol abuse and unwanted sexual conduct involving men, reports The Christian Post. In a written statement on Instagram, the 59-year-old singer acknowledged that the reports are “sadly, largely true." He wrote, "For some two decades, I used and abused cocaine, consumed far too much alcohol, and, at times, touched men in an unwanted sensual way. I am ashamed of my life choices and actions, and make no excuses for them. I will simply call it what God calls it — sin. “I was violating everything I was raised to believe by my God-fearing Dad and Mom, about walking with Jesus and was grieving the very God I loved and sang about for most of my life. By His grace, I can say that for the past six months, I have lived a singular life—one of utter brokenness and total dependence on a loving and merciful God." Tait's confession follows an in-depth investigative report published on June 3rd by The Roys Report documenting that three men accused him of sexual assault during separate incidents dating back to 2004. Tait quoted Psalm 51, King David's famous prayer of repentance: "Blot out my transgressions … create in me a new heart, O God." God-haters upset with 10 Commandments displayed in Arkansas schools A group of God-hating organizations has filed a lawsuit against a recently passed law in Arkansas that requires public schools to display the Ten Commandments on the wall in a 16-inch by 20-inch poster with a font size that makes it easily readable, reports The Christian Post. Americans United for Separation of Church and State, the American Civil Liberties Union, and the Freedom From Religion Foundation filed a complaint on Wednesday on behalf of a religiously diverse group of parents. At issue is Act 573, a measure signed into law by Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders in April and is scheduled to take effect in August. The lawsuit argues that "Act 573 is not neutral with respect to religion." Republican State Senator Jim Dotson, one of the bill's primary sponsors, argued in March that the Decalogue displays were not unconstitutional. He said, "From the state to the federal level all throughout our history, it is an historical reference point or historical document that has basic things like you shall not kill, steal, commit adultery -- those basic foundations of life that are good for everybody to keep front of mind so that we are hopefully living good lives," reports KATV. After God revealed the Ten Commandments to Moses on Mt. Sinai, Exodus 20:20 records Moses telling the Jews, “Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning.” Worldview listeners in South Dakota, Colorado, and Indiana share their hearts I invited Worldview listeners to share what they enjoy about the newscast in 2-6 sentences by email. You can share your thoughts -- along with your full name, city and state -- and send it to adam@TheWorldview.com Jason Bollwerk in Rapid City, South Dakota wrote, “I am a homeschooled sophomore in high school, and I listen daily to The Worldview for school. My reason for listening is not only to hear what is happening in the world, but I love hearing about all the good things that God is doing out there. Most media outlets show the dark side of what's going on. But The Worldview really shows what God's doing. Tally ho and pip pip.” Cheryl Ball in Indianapolis, Indiana wrote, “I've been reading the transcript of your newscast every morning since the presidential debates last year. I don't watch the news or read other news. So, this is basically my news input and I'm thankful for it.” And Dennis and Alyssa Guse in Castle Rock, Colorado, said, “Thank you for the faithful work you and The Worldview in 5 Minutes team do for the glory of God! We are blessed to hear relevant news stories and encouraging Scriptures every day. Keep up the great work for the Kingdom!” Dennis asked if I could lead an occasional short prayer for one of the news items. I called him to say that that was a great idea and I would take him up on the suggestion. 17 Worldview listeners gave $6,821 to fund our annual budget And finally, toward our midpoint goal of $61,750 to fund half of The Worldview newscast's annual budget by this past weekend, 17 listeners stepped up to the plate by 1:00pm Central on Saturday. We were only 3 donors short of our 20-donor goal. Our thanks to Augustine in Auburn, California who gave $25 as well as Elisabeth in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada and Karen in Waterford, Wisconsin -- both of whom gave $50, and Daniel in Mayflower, Arkansas who pledged $8 per month for 12 months for a gift of $96. We're grateful to God for Leasa in Simpsonville, South Carolina, George in Edinburgh, Indiana, and Woody in Sparks, Nevada – each of whom gave $100 as well as Laura in Millstadt, Illinois and Kerry and Rosana in San Antonio, Texas – both of whom gave $200. And we were touched by the generosity of Derrick in Evans, Georgia who gave $250, Justin and Oliver in Grover Beach, California who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300, Eric in Warren, Minnesota who also pledged $25 per month for 12 months for a gift of $300, Matt, Amanda, Elijah, Malachi, and Samuel in Greencastle, Indiana who gave $450, Shy in Ingalls, Indiana who pledged $50 per month for 12 months for a total gift of $600, Aaron in Fort Bragg, North Carolina who gave $1,000, Katie in Hutchinson, Kansas who gave $1,000, and Scooter in Naples, Florida who will match those last two $1,000 donations with another $2,000 gift of his own. Those 17 Worldview listeners gave a total of $6,821. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (Drum roll sound effect) $38,892.20 (People clapping and cheering sound effect) That means we fell $22,857.80 short of our $61,750 mid-point goal to stay on the air and fund our 6-member Worldview newscast team for another fiscal year. Toward this Friday, June 20th's goal of $92,625, we need to raise $53,732.80. Remember, if you are one of the 4 final people who give a one-time gift of $1,000, Scooter in Naples, Florida will match you with a corresponding $1,000 gift. Now, if that happens today, Monday, June 16th we will have raised an additional $8,000. In order to raise the remaining amount, I need to find 38 Worldview listeners who will pledge $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600. And another 76 listeners to pledge $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. Has God placed it on your heart to be one of the Christian patriots to fund this unparalleled newscast which unashamedly cites relevant Scripture, includes compelling soundbites, and practical action steps to speak out for Biblical principles? Please, we need your help right now! Go to TheWorldview.com and click on Give on the top right. Click on the button that indicates a recurring monthly donation if that's your wish. I'll be honest. In my flesh, I'm getting very nervous indeed! But, in my spirit, I confidently trust that God will prompt the right people to give generously to cover our annual budget. Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, June 16th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Sergio Perera is a chef & nutrition expert. Having trained as a professional chef in some of Spain's most respected restaurants and then training in Japan, a serendipitous moment saw Sergio become the go to private chef to Hollywood actors (such as Tom Cruise, Robert Downey Jr, Leonardo DiCaprio, Chris Hemsworth), athletes, royalty and politicians. Growing up in Spain he was naturally an advocate for the healthy Mediterranean diet, but it was working with actors which prompted him to study and learn more about nutrition and during his time with Chris Hemsworth he helped prepare him for the role Thor, optimising his nutrition to support his exercise and muscle building regime. He was an integral part of the successful training app known as CENTR by Chris Hemsworth, writing recipes, diet programs and meditations, offering subscribers a holistic wellness approach. Sergio has an international upbringing, born in Spain to a Mexican/American and Spanish Parents and growing up on a US Airforce base, has given Sergio a unique perspective on food and culture. Sergio's love for food and cooking began in his Grandfather's kitchen where he learnt the traditional cuisine of the Aragon region. At the age of 18, he set off to expand his repertoire of Spanish cuisine by training at some of the world's most prestigious restaurants such as ARZAK, Mugaritz and with Albert Adria at the iconic el Bulli restaurant in Roses, Spain. His curiosity and passion for culture eventually lead him to Kyoto, Japan where he was introduced to Kaiseki which is an exquisite form of dining that moves elegantly and poetically with the seasons. Sergio has used his culinary and artistic experience to create beautiful and inspirational images for food books, magazines and film productions. He is currently the brand ambassador for Winning Appliances, working alongside John Winning's team on numerous culinary and creative projects. The most recent has been the opening of ORA Japanese dining and bar in Sydney's Waterloo.

Slaget ved Waterloo var ikke bare slutten på Napoleons militære karriere. Det var slutten på en periode som skapte det moderne Europa, fra syvårskrigen til Wienerkongressen. Hvorfor er denne perioden så viktig? Hva gjør den relevant for oss i dag? Hvilke personer spilte viktige roller? Og hvilke ideer var sentrale? Historiens lange linjer trekkes her opp gjennom fire generaler: Napoleon, Lord Wellington, Blücher og Scharnhorst. Gjest i episoden er Harald Høiback, oberstløytnant, filosof og historiker ved Forsvarets museer.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Tank Talks, Matt Cohen chats with Ryan Gariepy, CTO and Co-Founder of Clearpath Robotics, on how a garage project from four Waterloo grads turned into one of Canada's biggest deep tech exits. Ryan takes us behind the scenes of Clearpath's $600M acquisition by Rockwell Automation and the company's journey from building robots for researchers to dominating the autonomous mobile robot (AMR) space.The conversation covers building during a hardware-unfriendly time, the harsh realities of supply chains, the open-source bet that changed robotics, and what it really feels like to pitch in a room of 50+ Rockwell execs. Ryan also breaks down why humanoid robots are still far off, the evolution of talent in robotics, and how Canada can stay in the game.

‘The Brick' is finally finished! Kate and Sheila discuss Les Miserables in its entirety… (spoiler alerts galore-avoid if surprises you adore) …it has taken us a bit, but so totally worth it!Victor Hugo shows readers that, “Heroes come in all shapes” from the unbelievable bravery of young Gavroche to the mysterious motives of the misunderstood Jean Valjean. Hugo can bloviate like no other author, from Waterloo to the sewers of France! He can also pack quite a punch in few words:“One cannot goad people into moving faster than they are prepared to go. Woe to him who tries to force their hands.” People will rise to the level of expectations but we must let them rise (like bread in the making) we cannot force anyone's progress! Victor nailed it!“What is Progress? We have just said it. It is the permanent life of all people. But it sometimes happens that the momentary life of individuals is opposed to the eternal life of the human race.”Do we oft times put the pebbles in first? Do we worry and fret over the trivial? Eternal life is one that is lived in harmony with God❤️He is our Rock He must come first!“But a civilizing race must be a masculine race…Those who become effeminate bastardize themselves.” In our society young men are committing suicide 4 times the regular population! The war against toxic masculinity has wreaked havoc by giving young men false identities, leaving our society with boys.Readers are taken on a journey starting with injustice and evil and falsity and darkness toward justice and goodness and truth and light! What an emotional roller coaster ride for determined readers! Warning: Not for the faint of heart! Let's put on SCUBA gear before embarking on this deeper than deep dive! Thanks for joining us on our quest to read the best! May you have a day that is blessed with a book, a cuppa, and friends!
In 2022, the Freedom Convoy brought the nation's capital to standstill. In 2025, so-called technocrat Mark Carney and the Liberals triumphed in the federal election.

What if the universe was stuck in an eternal cosmic Groundhog Day? Picture traveling backwards through time past the Big Bang only to discover you've looped right back to where you started - like a cosmic snake eating its own tail. Explore the mind-bending possibility that our entire universe repeats itself in endless cycles, where infinite copies of you exist scattered across millions of light years, all having this exact same conversation at different stages of cosmic evolution. Join cosmologist Niayesh Afshordi from the University of Waterloo and Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, and science communicator Phil Halper, fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society, as they dive into Roger Penrose's controversial time loops and the heated scientific battles between cosmologists who engage in academic warfare. Discover the wild world where the universe literally forgets what's big and what's small, why some scientists think this cyclical cosmos is the answer to everything, while others call it pure fantasy - and why both camps might be having religious wars instead of scientific debates. This episode is based on Afshordi and Halper's new book "Battle of the Big Bang: The New Tales of Our Cosmic Origins" from University of Chicago Press, which explores these cosmic battles and 25 different Big Bang models: https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/B/bo244963115.html --- Find out more about Gaby's science fiction short story!

For years "experts" have said, "Radio? It's dead!" They said it at the dawn of television. They said it at the birth of cable TV. They said it when streaming services came about and they said it when podcasts became popular. But know what...radio is still very much alive. In fact the "spoken word" is more popular today than it was ten years ago. Here you'll meet Jeff Stein the Program Director and News Director for News/Talk 1540 KXEL a 50,000 powerhouse based in Waterloo, Iowa with details. And as a bonus he'll talk about the Great Eastern Iowa TractorCade that kicks off on Sunday the 8th in Mount Pleasant, Iowa. Meet Jeff: Thanks for listening!

By most popular accounts, the universe started with a bang some 13.8 billion years ago. But what happened before the Big Bang? And how do we know it happened at all? Cosmologist Niayesh Afshordi and science communicator Phil Halper offer a tour of the peculiar possibilities: bouncing and cyclic universes, time loops, creations from nothing, multiverses, black hole births, string theories, and holograms. Incorporating insights from Afshordi's cutting-edge research and Halper's original interviews with scientists like Stephen Hawking, Roger Penrose, and Alan Guth, Afshordi and Halper compare these models for the origin of our origins, showing each theory's strengths and weaknesses and explaining new attempts to test these notions. But most of all, Afshordi and Halper show that this search is filled with wonder, discovery, and community—all essential for remembering a forgotten cosmic past. Niayesh Afshordi is professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Waterloo and associate faculty at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Ontario, Canada. His prize-winning research focuses on competing models for the early universe, dark energy, dark matter, black holes, holography, and gravitational waves. Phil Halper is a fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and a science popularizer. He is the creator of the popular YouTube series Before the Big Bang, which has had several million views. His astronomy images have been featured in major media outlets including The Washington Post, the BBC, and The Guardian, and he has published several papers in peer-reviewed journals.
Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and Ideas
Einstein's general theory of relativity, plus some reasonable assumptions about the universe and what it's made of, has a remarkable implication: that as we trace cosmic evolution into the far past, we ultimately hit a singularity of infinite density and curvature, the Big Bang. Did that really happen? Einstein's theory is classical, after all, and the world is quantum. And whose to say what assumptions are reasonable? Niayesh Afshordi and Phil Halper have written a new book, Battle of the Big Bang: The New Tales of Our Cosmic Origins, that surveys all of the mind-bending possibilities.Blog post with transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2025/05/26/316-niayesh-afshordi-and-phil-halper-on-the-big-bang-and-before/Support Mindscape on Patreon.Niayesh Afshordi received a Ph.D. in astrophysics from Princeton University.
