At the Court of Liang at the period of Yang Chu, about 300 B.C., the philosophers were treated as guests of the reigning king, who reserved for them lodging and maintenance, and encouraged all who had any pretence to the pursuit of truth and wisdom. Whether or not Yang Chu was actually a native of the Wei State, or whether he came there drawn by the attraction of a critical and unrivalled audience, it is at least certain that he settled there as small proprietor, probably in the reign of King Hwei, and continued there till his death, about 250 B.C.One may imagine a condition of life in many respects somewhat analogous to the life of Epicurus in his famous Athenian Garden. To the philosopher of pleasure and contentment came pupils and disciples, discourses were held in much the same way as at an identical period discourses were held in the garden at Athens, and it is to these discourses, memorised and recorded by his favourite pupil Meng-sun-Yang, that we most probably owe the single fragment of the teaching of Yang Chu that remains, a fragment complete and explicit enough to enable us to form a clear estimate of his teaching and philosophy. - (from the Introduction by Hugh Cranmer-Byng)Translated by Anton Forke.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Ava kicks off a two-part series on parenthood and motherhood, drawing on the Functional Spirituality framework to argue that the modern parenting struggle is an environmental failure, not a personal one. Our nervous systems and culture are imbalanced toward Yang (survival, speed, individualism) over Yin (safety, collaboration, community), and that imbalance has isolated motherhood into an overburdened, under-resourced role. She names this as the "best case scenario" — before factoring in trauma, disability, or loss. Part two covers how to navigate it.

In this episode of the Race and Rights Podcast, guest host Dr. Esaa Mohammad Sabti Samarah sits down with Dr. Mustafa Rfat, a faculty member at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, a scholar of forced migration and disability justice, and the Refugee Congress Delegate representing the state of Missouri, for a conversation examining the intersection of refugee rights, disability, and structural inequality. Drawing from both rigorous scholarship and lived experience as a refugee with a disability, Dr. Rfat explores how immigration systems, social policies, and institutional practices shape the lives of refugees with disabilities long before and long after resettlement.Together, they examine the historical exclusion of people with disabilities from U.S. immigration and citizenship policy, the barriers refugees encounter when navigating health care, education, employment, and naturalization, and why disability must be understood through a social rather than medical lens alone. The discussion also explores the human consequences of recent refugee and deportation policies, highlighting how inaccessible systems and language exclusion can undermine both disability rights and fundamental human rights.Throughout the conversation, Dr. Rfat reflects on his own journey from Iraq to the United States, illustrating how personal experience has informed a research agenda dedicated to advancing refugee health equity, participatory research, and disability justice. The episode challenges listeners to reconsider dominant narratives about refugees by centering resilience, dignity, and belonging while emphasizing the responsibility of researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to dismantle structural barriers rather than expecting individuals to overcome them alone.This episode is essential listening for scholars, practitioners, policymakers, students, and advocates committed to refugee rights, disability justice, health equity, and human rights.Links to Published WorksRfat, M.

Send us Fan MailSales are soft for Friday's game and someone says the word every ticket office reaches for: discount. Jeremy Neisser makes the case that a price cut and a value add are two completely different promotions — one lowers what fans expect to pay from here on out, the other raises what they believe they're getting. He walks through the research on reference pricing, a study of MLB bobblehead promotions from 2012 to 2023 that moved attendance without touching ticket price, and real packages from the Blue Jackets, Bulls, Dynamo, and Rocket City Trash Pandas. Then he gives you the five places to look for value before you ever subtract from the price.KEY TOPICS COVERED- Why running discounts often enough quietly retrains what your fans believe a ticket is worth- What a reference price is, and how a repeated $5 off resets the number in your fan's head- The difference between changing your price and changing your offer — and why only one of them costs you revenue- Research showing fans value promotions for being fun, different, and worth talking about, not just for the savings- Why "we got hats with our tickets" travels further than "I saved $4"- What an MLB bobblehead study from 2012 to 2023 found about gate giveaways versus special ticket packages — and what both had in common- Real value-add packages you can copy from the Columbus Blue Jackets, Chicago Bulls, Houston Dynamo, and Rocket City Trash Pandas- The five buckets every add-on comes from: food, merchandise, access, recognition, and experience- How to find high-perceived-value add-ons that cost your team close to nothing- Why the word "free" can make a fan value your giveaway less — and the one-line fix- How to build exclusivity and scarcity into a value add so it drives a specific game- The filter to bring into your next promo meeting before anyone reaches for a promo codeTIMESTAMPS[00:00] – The Monday problem: soft sales, a Friday game, and the instinct to discount[01:39] – Why discounting feels obvious — we're all trained to hunt for deals[03:04] – The hidden cost of discounting too often[03:58] – What a $20 ticket sold for $15 actually communicates to a fan[04:54] – Reference price explained: the number every fan already carries[06:15] – The Michael's picture frame problem, and how price sensitivity compounds[07:10] – Value adds change the offer instead of the price[08:10] – Why fans value a promotion for more than the savings[08:39] – The Chandon, Wansink, and Laurent research on what people get out of a promotion[09:31] – The psychology of getting "a little something extra"[10:53] – The Savannah Bananas story: what surprise and delight actually looks like[11:23] – The MLB bobblehead study: giveaways moved attendance up to 13%, ticket packages about 8%[12:51] – Two approaches, two attendance increases, zero dollars off the ticket[13:19] – Blue Jackets family value pack, Bulls family packs, and the Houston Dynamo four pack[14:18] – The five buckets: food, merchandise, access, recognition, experience[15:46] – Concrete add-on ideas inside each of the five buckets[17:13] – Low actual cost, high perceived value — and why your building is already full of it[18:12] – What this means for a GM, external relations director, or ticket sales director[18:40] – Why "free" can backfire, and how to name the value instead[20:06] – The question to bring back to your team[20:35] – Running all five buckets in the meeting before you approve a discount[21:32] – Final takeaway: our job isn't cheaper tickets, it's a more valuable gameCALL TO ACTIONIf this sparked an idea, share the episode with someone in your office — then leave a rating or review on Spotify or Apple.

Is your home supporting your health, relationships and prosperity, or could the Feng Shui of your environment actually be draining your energy? In this episode of Smashing Secrets Feng Shui, we go back to the foundations of Classical Feng Shui and explore how the physical environment around your home can influence the quality and movement of Chi long before you begin working with Flying Stars, BaZi or Qi Men Dun Jia. As we move into the autumn energy of 2026, we look at why your surroundings, landscape and the physical form of your property matter, and how seemingly simple features such as hills, roads, neighbouring buildings, pathways and your front entrance can affect the way energy reaches and moves through your home. We explore Form School Feng Shui, including the Four Celestial Animals, the Black Tortoise, Green Dragon, White Tiger and Red Phoenix, and what they can reveal about support, opportunity, balance and the flow of energy around your property. You'll also discover how to look at your home through the eyes of Chi: where energy enters, whether it can gather, how it moves through your rooms, and what features such as clutter, staircases, narrow entrances or fast-moving pathways might be doing to that flow. In this episode: How your surrounding landscape affects the Feng Shui of your home Why Form School Feng Shui comes before Flying Stars How to tell whether your property feels supported or exposed The meaning of the Black Tortoise, Green Dragon, White Tiger and Red Phoenix Why the main entrance is considered the Chi mouth of the home How the Ming Tang or Bright Hall allows energy to gather How clutter and obstacles can disrupt the flow of Chi What staircases, pathways and room layouts can do to household energy How to assess the Yin and Yang balance of your environment A simple exercise for seeing your home as if you were Chi entering it for the first time Before reaching for Feng Shui cures, colours, crystals or wealth activations, this episode invites you to start with something much more fundamental: the relationship between your home, the landscape around it and the energy it is actually able to receive. If your home has ever felt strangely exhausting, unsettled or simply “off”, this episode may help you understand why.

What is gnosis? There's a lot of “Gnosticism” floating around on the Internet these days, isn't there? And the gnosis I'm sharing with you is quite different from most of what's out there. Before 1945 and 1947—before the Nag Hammadi and Qumran scriptures were dug out of deserts and caves—the only Gnosticism anyone knew was what had survived the Great Purge by the early Catholic Church and the Nicene Council. The Church intentionally stripped the Gnostic material out of what became our New Testament. Why? I think it's because actual gnosis puts people in direct contact with the Christ personally, with the Son and the Fullness personally, and with the Father on a personal basis. It's similar to what the Protestant Reformation did to Catholicism. In Catholic teaching, you're only allowed access to God through the interpretations of the Church. The Pope is supposedly the infallible word of God, and the priests represent that official line of theology. So when Martin Luther said, “No, we can read the Bible ourselves and come up with our own interpretation,” well… that opened up a can of worms. Because if everyone is allowed their own interpretation, then interpretations will be as varied as there are people. Just look at something as simple as food. Everyone you know has a different diet now. Protein-only, vegetables-only, fruit-only, organic-only, junk-food-only, “everything in moderation”—you name it. When I ran a bed and breakfast for years, I learned this quickly. You lay out a table for 10 or 12 people every day, and you see how peculiar and particular everyone's diet is. I once had one guest who only ate egg whites and another who only ate yolks—at the same table! It reminded me of Jack Sprat and his wife: between the two of them, they licked the platter clean. Scripture interpretation is like that. Everyone has their own take. What is a mystic? Mysticism is the idea that we can directly perceive and commune with ethereal forces—that it takes a mystical shift to get past our ordinary way of seeing things and into that ethereal realm. When Martin Luther put the New Testament back into the hands of ordinary people, he opened the door for personal communion with God.I've been to many Protestant churches. I didn't grow up in church—my parents weren't particularly religious—but I had my own personal relationship with Jesus from about age four. I came up under the tutelage of Jesus personally, not through church teaching. You know those Red Letter Bibles? For years I only read the red letters because I wanted to know what Jesus had to say. Before the Nag Hammadi and Qumran texts were translated from Coptic Greek, all we knew about Gnostic belief came from the people who hated the Gnostics—the heresiologists. “Heresy” means unorthodox belief, so a heresiologist studies unorthodox beliefs. And the Catholic heresiologists were the only ones who had ever seen the Gnostic scriptures. They taught their flock, “This is wrong because the Church says so.” So everything they ever said about Gnostic scripture was about how terrible and evil it was. When I was young, I believed that line of thinking. I believed the Nicene Creed was the truth and that we had to accept everything it proposed. I believed in the Protestant formulation of the New Testament. And even though Protestants aren't under the Pope, each denomination has its own leadership and scriptural emphasis—otherwise they wouldn't be separate denominations. But let me get back to the original question: What is gnosis? The purpose of studying scripture, the New Testament, the Nag Hammadi texts, the Qumran texts, or tuning in to so called Gnostic podcasts is to learn about the ethereal realm—to learn the will of God, who the Father is, and what the Father's will for us is. Why are we here? What is going on down here? What does God have to do with it and what's our role in the plan? There's a worldwide pushback against Christianity and Judaism right now—people deconstructing not only the Church, but the very concepts of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, and the Christ. But the people pushing back usually don't know the scriptures and they don't personally know the Father. They're generally atheists or, at best, agnostic. They think we'd be better off throwing it all away—even getting rid of the so-called “restrictive” moral precepts of ancient scripture. That thinking comes from ignorance. The antidote to ignorance is gnosis—eternal knowledge and truth. And across religions and holy books, the teaching is the same: you can only know the will of the Father by sitting quietly, praying, meditating, contemplating your relationship with the ethereal. You cannot find truth by looking at popular culture, politics, social media, television, movies, or university courses. That's entertainment. That's distraction. That's where error comes from. You won't find gnosis in popular culture. I notice that television shows and movies depicting angels, devils, and priests don't come from the knowledge of truth. Their theology is all wrong. It may be entertaining or maddening, depending on your point of view, but it's certainly not gnosis.Here's why: Gnosis comes from above. It doesn't come from below, and it doesn't come laterally. You might find inspiration through nature because nature reflects the Fullness. Trees and flowers reach upward. If you sit in a forest and feel uplifted, that inspiration naturally turns your attention upward. You're not going to sit in a forest, feel the Fullness, and then get angry or hateful or want to conquer people. That's downward or lateral thinking. So here's the big point—the nugget I started with: The God Above All Gods wants to be known. The God Above All Gods is love, truth, and knowledge. And God wants to be known. The Father wants us to know He's there. He wants us to know we come from Him and will return to Him. That's the baseline of gnosis. We use “He” for the Father because the movement of the Father is outward—Yang—male. The Father is the ocean of consciousness, the ground state of consciousness itself, flowing outward and downward through the Son, through the Totalities, through the Aeons, down to us. We are 2nd Order powers. The ethereal beings are 1st Order powers. The flow is always downward because the Father wants to be known. consciousness flows in an unending stream from the God Above All Gods If you feel lost, abandoned, hopeless, you're looking in the wrong direction. You have to look up. Up is where love, belonging, communion, hope, safety, home, and inheritance come from. We are creatures from above, inhabiting the material plane, and we are going back up. So what do we need to know? What gnosis does the Father want us to have so we can feel peace, hope, love, and security? It has to be something accessible to every creature—birds, bees, flowers, trees, bacteria. We're all 2nd Order powers from the Fullness and we are all returning to our ethereal home. What gnosis do we share with our other 2nd Order companions? My dogs at the beach If God intended you to memorize obscure manuscripts, charts, Aeon names, formulas, astrological math—who could do that? If that were the required gnosis, hardly anyone would find the key. That's what modern Gnosticism often looks like: labyrinthian, always seeking, never finding. But truth isn't found that way. Truth is found by sitting quietly and turning your attention upward. If “the Father” feels too far away, turn your attention upward to the Christ. The Christ was conceived by the ethereal realm to help us 2nd Order powers go home. Christ is our passbook. Christ is perfectly structured to save everything below. The New Testament says this—Protestants and Catholics just don't believe it. Many modern Gnostics don't believe it either. They think only a tiny remnant will make it. I don't think that's true. If only a few return, the Fullness won't be full. It will be partial. We are the fruit of the Fullness, and the Fullness won't be full until we all return. Flowers aren't going to memorize books. Birds aren't going to study theology. My dog doesn't give a hoot about his astrological chart. Everyone is going back up. All 2nd Order powers will roll back up out of the material plane at the end of time.We get there by realizing our gnosis and accepting the redemption of the Aeon sent to bring us home—Christ. Everyone is going home. You are going home. It's like we're on a big school bus. Christ is waiting at the bus stop to take our hand and walk us home. Everyone recognizes the Christ—except the people looking for answers down here. They don't want to look up. Are they going to hell? No. They're 2nd Order powers too. They'll go home, but they'll suffer first, by their own choosing. Right now you don't have to suffer. You just have to sit and turn your eyes upward. Because, as it says in the letter to the Colossians out of the New Testament, “For in him all the Fullness was pleased to take up a dwelling and through him to reconcile all things to him.” All things, may I point out, “all things to him, making peace by the blood of his cross [through him], whether the things on Earth or the things in the heavens.” (Colossians 1:19; Hart's New Testament). Now Paul does add a little catch phrase at the end here. Paul says, “If you indeed abide in the faith, established and steadfast and not moved away from hope in the good tidings that you have heard proclaimed to every creature under heaven…” (Col 1:23). Christians generally think that last sentence, if you abide in faith and are not moved away, means that if you don't abide in faith and you are moved away, that you will not make it into heaven. But that isn't what it says here. It says it's “proclaimed to every creature under heaven,” and that includes every one of us 2nd order powers, for Christ has already reconciled “all things to him.” Not just the good guys, not just the ones who died after proclaiming the glory of God. No. All things to him. If you don't accept the redemption of Christ now, it just means that you're going to suffer hopelessness and despair, and then you're going to die in hopelessness and despair. But why continue to suffer? Christ reconciled all things to him through his life and death as Jesus. Jesus was the mortal incarnation of the eternal Christ, specifically sent to bring us the gift of reconciliation. You will ultimately be redeemed. Chapter two of the letter to Colossians says, “while you were dead in trespasses and in your foreskin of flesh, he gave you life along with him, forgiving all trespasses, expunging what is written by hand against us—contrary to us—in ordinances, and has removed it out of the way, nailing it to the cross; Stripping the Archons and Powers, he exposed them in the open, leading them prisoner along with him in a triumphal procession” (Hart's New Testament). And this speaking of “the foreskin of flesh” is a reference to our physical human bodies. The foreskin is our covering. It's the place where we 2nd order powers are melded to the material of the Demiurge. And he came to pull apart that melding and to free us from bondage to the Demiurge. So Paul is saying while you were yet dead in your sin, he forgave all of your trespasses. He forgave all of your sins. It doesn't say after you accepted him, he forgave all your trespasses. He says, “While you were dead in your sin, he forgave all your trespasses and nailed them to the cross,” along with his own dying flesh (Colossians 2:13). It also says that he exposes the Archons and takes them prisoner. So, contrary to what the churches teach, it is biblical to believe in universal salvation because Christ conquered not only sin, but the Archons and Powers of evil. The light is shining on them now. Back in the letter to the Romans, in Chapter 5, it says, “The Anointed, indeed, while we were yet weak, died in due season on behalf of the impious” (Romans 5:6; Hart). So once again, Christ didn't die on behalf of the elect. He died on behalf of sinners, on behalf of people that are lost—not only lost but living in sin, no matter what your sin is. In the footnote to this verse in Hart's translation of the New Testament, Hart comments that here and in the surrounding verses, “Whether intentional or not, the plain meaning of the verse is that of universal condemnation, annulled by universal salvation.” And that's a really beautiful thing. That is a glorious thing because through the power of Christ, we're all redeemed. I urge you to turn to the Christ now—not out of fear, not to escape hell, but to remember the gnosis you were born with. We come from the Father, and we will return to the Father. We are the children of the Aeons, and you are one of them: a beloved child of the realms above. No one in the Fullness desires your suffering. Our task in this deficient realm is simple and profound: to remember the Father and the Fullness, and then—through the willing assistance of the Christ—to love others, to love ourselves, and to love the Father. Illustration from the kid’s book Children of the Fullness: A Gnostic Myth. Restoration comes to the Demiurge at the end of time. When all 2nd order powers remember Christ, so too will the Demiurge. All true change arises from love. Force produces only suffering and slavery. The Demiurge would keep you in bondage. Cast off those shackles, whatever form they take. Rest in the peace that comes from remembering who you truly are, and let the love that flows in an unending stream from above move outward through you into the world.

Celtic hammered Dundee United 4-0 — so why did they lose the xG battle and concede 19 shots? On this episode of The Huddle Breakdown, James and Alan dig into Alan's post-match stat pack and packing score data to explain the contradiction at the heart of Celtic's fast start to the 2026/27 season. Celtic are conceding packing scores near 300 against bottom-half Scottish Premiership opposition, roughly double the rate of the games they genuinely control, and the numbers point straight at central midfield: Callum McGregor's defensive success rate almost halved without Arne Engels beside him, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was physically finished five minutes into the second half, and Celtic simply aren't stopping danger at source. Alan and James also give first impressions of new signings Bauer and Hassan, debate Trusty vs Scales alongside Carter-Vickers, argue over Tounekti vs Yang on the left, and preview Wednesday's Champions League qualifier against LASK at Celtic Park — a Red Bull-adjacent, transition-hungry Austrian side that Celtic should out-talent, but who could drag this into exactly the kind of chaotic second-ball game Celtic are currently worst equipped to handle. Analytics, eye test, and a lot of anxiety about whether a great attack can paper over a structural problem.

Have you ever wondered if you're too much in your masculine?Maybe you've tried to soften more, receive more, slow down more… or somehow find that elusive “perfect balance” between your feminine and masculine energies.But what if balance was never the goal?What if these energies were meant to be in relationship?In this episode of The Vital Goddess Podcast, we explore the feminine and masculine through the ancient imagery of Yin and Yang—not as two opposing forces divided neatly down the middle, but as a dynamic, living dance.A partnership.An inner alchemy.Maybe even… a cosmic love affair.
Füße sind das Fundament unseres Bewegungssystems– und trotzdem werden sie in der Therapie oft unterschätzt. In dieser Episode sprechen wir mit einer Kollegin, die sich in ihrer Praxis intensiv mit Beschwerden im Bereich Fuß und Sprunggelenk beschäftigt und dafür eine eigene Fußsprechstunde aufgebaut hat.Im Gespräch geht es um moderne Perspektiven aufFußtherapie, den Aufbau und die Koordination der Fußmuskulatur und die Frage, welche Rolle Training, Schuhe und Einlagen tatsächlich spielen.Denn weder Einlagen noch Barfußschuhe sind pauschale Lösungen. Entscheidend ist immer der individuelle Kontext: Wer steht vor uns? Welche Belastungen bringt diese Person mit?

Last year, an employee at Milwaukee Tool was arrested for stealing more than $1 million in tools from the Wisconsin tool maker. Matthew Yang worked in the company's IT department and manipulated the Milwaukee Tool ordering system to send tools to multiple addresses, including his own. On Friday, 32-year-old Yang was sentenced to five years in prison, which will be followed by five years of extended supervision. Yang must also pay Milwaukee Tool $1.08 million in restitution and will be on probation for nine years, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The sentence was part of a plea deal that saw Yan plead no contest to five felonies to have nine other charges dropped. Police were contacted in April 2025 after Yang had some 9,000 pounds of tools sent to his apartment complex, which is unordinary. The freight company reached out to Milwaukee Tool's customer service to confirm the address, but the tool maker couldn't find the order in its system, according to the local Fox affiliate. Yang would create the orders, have them shipped, but then delete the order before payment processing. He did this for some 115 orders. Milwaukee Tool caught six of them, which means 109 made it to their destinations. Yang had a unique knowledge of Milwaukee Tool's operation. He worked with the company for about eight years, starting in the supply chain department before he moved to IT. During the investigation, law enforcement also found that Yang visited a local casino at least 140 times and sustained some significant losses.

KATA PEMRED #63PinterPolitik.comPada akhir Juli, yen jatuh ke titik terlemah dalam empat dekade. Lalu, dalam satu malam, ia berbalik hampir enam angka. Yang membalikkannya bukan Bank of Japan sendirian.Pada 30 dan 31 Juli, Kementerian Keuangan Jepang dan Departemen Keuangan Amerika Serikat membeli yen bersama-sama. Federal Reserve Bank of New York, bertindak untuk Treasury, menjual euro untuk membeli yen. Jepang diperkirakan membelanjakan hingga 36,58 miliar dolar. Ini operasi gabungan pertama kedua negara membeli yen sejak 1998. Menteri Keuangan Amerika Serikat kemudian menyatakan pihaknya tidak akan ragu ikut serta dalam intervensi bersama berikutnya.
Artificial intelligence is playing a larger role in recruitment as employers seek a faster, more precise supply of high-end talent, and job seekers are using it to strengthen applications and prepare for interviews.人工智能在招聘中正扮演越来越重要的角色——雇主希望更快速、精准地获取高端人才,求职者也在利用AI强化求职申请、准备面试。For employers, AI is reducing the time spent on high-volume screening. Yang Liang, who works in human resources at a central State-owned enterprise, said his team uses AI to compare resumes with job descriptions and generate matching reports, along with suggested interview questions, risk alerts and assessments of candidates' potential.对于雇主而言,AI正在减少大量筛选简历的时间。在央企从事人力资源工作的杨亮表示,他的团队利用AI将简历与职位描述进行比对,生成匹配度报告,并附带面试问题建议、风险提示和候选人潜力评估。"Recruitment efficiency has soared with AI," Yang said, adding that his company can receive more than 100 resumes a day, a volume that once took recruiters most of the day to screen but can now be processed dozens of times faster.“AI让招聘效率大幅提升,”杨亮说。他补充道,公司每天收到超过100份简历,过去需要招聘人员花费大半天时间筛选,现在处理速度提升了数十倍。Nearly 80 percent of companies used AI hiring tools during China's 2025 spring recruitment season, with 52.6 percent using them for resume screening and 35.1 percent for AI-powered interviews, according to a report by Chinese recruitment platform Nowcoder.据中国招聘平台牛客网发布的报告,在2025年春季招聘季中,近80%的企业使用了AI招聘工具,其中52.6%用于简历筛选,35.1%用于AI面试。The report said automated bulk screening shortened the average recruitment cycle by 25 percent and cut initial manual screening costs at leading internet companies by 33 percent. During the peak campus recruitment period, screening 1,000 resumes would take recruiters more than eight hours, while an AI system could complete the task in less than 20 minutes.报告称,自动化批量筛选将平均招聘周期缩短了25%,领先互联网公司的初步人工筛选成本降低了33%。在校园招聘高峰期,筛选1000份简历需要招聘人员超过8小时,而AI系统可在20分钟内完成。Beyond volume hiring, recruiters are testing AI on specialized searches. Recruitment platform Maimai said its latest AI-model-powered system can interpret natural-language requirements that are difficult to convert into fixed search tags. It then assesses resumes, professional profiles and workplace connections to locate candidates, including those in adjacent industries.除了大规模招聘,招聘人员还在尝试将AI用于专业化搜索。招聘平台脉脉表示,其最新的AI模型驱动系统能够解析难以转换为固定搜索标签的自然语言需求,然后评估简历、职业档案和工作关系,以定位候选人,包括来自相邻行业的潜在人选。"Anyone who can type can use AI recruitment tools," said Huo Qiaodi, head of Maimai's recruitment business. "The system can easily handle personalized screening conditions through natural language, such as 'excluding candidates who changed jobs twice in three years unless each move brought a promotion'."“只要会打字就能用AI招聘工具,”脉脉招聘业务负责人霍巧笛说。“该系统能通过自然语言轻松处理个性化筛选条件,例如‘排除三年内跳槽两次的候选人,除非每次跳槽都有晋升。”Its reasoning function can also help recruiters look beyond familiar companies and industries. When seeking a community operations specialist with about a year of experience, for example, recruiters may initially focus on candidates from regular community platforms such as Xiaohongshu, Zhihu, Bilibili and Weibo.系统的推理功能还能帮助招聘人员跳出熟悉的公司和行业。例如,在寻找具有约一年经验的社区运营专员时,招聘人员最初可能聚焦于来自小红书、知乎、哔哩哔哩和微博等常规社区平台的候选人。However, the system can widen that search by recommending candidates from unconventional channels such as NetEase Games or Huawei's Xinsheng Community.不过,系统可以扩大搜索范围,推荐来自非常规渠道的候选人,例如网易游戏或华为心声社区的运营人员。"These unexpected candidates may prove to be a better fit," Huo said. She added that AI recruitment was not intended to replace human resources professionals, but to allow them to focus on higher-value judgment and communication.“这些意想不到的候选人可能更适合,”霍巧笛说。她补充说,AI招聘并非意在取代人力资源从业者,而是让他们专注于更高价值的判断和沟通。Job seekers are also using AI to reduce information gaps and better explain how their experience fits a position. Dong Yuqi, a liberal arts student, built a simple AI tool that produces reports on unfamiliar employers, drawing together information on their business, operations and workplace discussions. She also uses AI to tailor resumes to job descriptions and organize possible interview questions.求职者也在利用AI缩小信息差,更好地阐释自己的经验如何匹配岗位。文科生董钰琪开发了一个简单的AI工具,生成关于陌生雇主的报告,汇集其业务、运营和职场讨论等信息。她还用AI根据职位描述定制简历并整理可能的面试问题。"AI not only improves efficiency; it can also make access to information fairer and reduce some information asymmetry," Dong said.“AI不仅提高了效率,还能让信息获取更加公平,减少一些信息不对称,”董钰琪说。Li Huiying, 24, a job seeker in Beijing, said an AI mock interviewer quickly exposed weaknesses in her application materials.24岁的北京求职者李慧颖表示,AI模拟面试官很快暴露了她求职材料中的短板。"I prepared for job interviews for about two months, and AI identified problems in my resume in just seconds," Li said.“我准备了大约两个月的面试,AI在几秒钟内就指出了我简历中的问题,”李慧颖说。Their experiences reflect the wider use of AI among job seekers. A survey from Zhaopin.com during this year's spring recruitment season found that 50.7 percent of respondents used AI to improve resumes or write self-introductions, 28.2 percent used it to analyze target industries or companies, and 26.5 percent used it for mock interviews and to practice their responses.这些经历反映了AI在求职者中的广泛使用。智联招聘在今年春季招聘季的一项调查发现,50.7%的受访者使用AI润色简历或撰写自我介绍,28.2%用于分析目标行业或公司,26.5%用于模拟面试和练习应答。(文中所有人名均为音译)adjacent industries /əˈdʒeɪsənt ˈɪndəstriz/相邻行业natural-language requirements /ˈnætʃərəl ˈlæŋɡwɪdʒ rɪˈkwaɪəmənts/自然语言需求fixed search tags /fɪkst sɜːtʃ tæɡz/固定搜索标签professional profiles /prəˈfeʃənəl ˈprəʊfaɪlz/职业档案workplace connections /ˈwɜːkpleɪs kəˈnekʃənz/工作关系

Good afternoon, I'm _ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened slightly higher this morning at 40,048 points, with turnover of 15.7-billion N.T. dollars. The market fell sharply (大幅下跌) again on Wednesday, losing more than 1,500 points. Investors remain worried about the large amount of money companies are spending on artificial intelligence (人工智慧). MOFA to protest 'Taiwan, China' name in South Africa's ETA system The Ministry of Foreign Affairs says it will protest (抗議) South Africa's use of the name "Taiwan, China" in its Electronic Travel Authorization (旅行授權) system. Taiwanese travelers are not yet able to use the system. But reports say Taiwan appears in the website's passport menu under the incorrect (不正確的) name "Taiwan, China." The foreign ministry says Taiwan's representative office in Pretoria has been told to file a formal protest and ask South Africa to correct the name. Control Yuan refers former top trade negotiator, Yang Jen-ni to disciplinary court The Control Yuan has impeached (彈劾) former top trade negotiator Yang Jen-ni and sent her case to the Disciplinary Court. Yang was removed from her position last month after an investigation found that she repeatedly (一再地;反覆地) bullied her former deputy, Yen Huai-hsing. Yen resigned in February and died on March 12 at the age of 53. The Control Yuan says Yang seriously violated (違反) rules for public officials and should face a disciplinary review (懲戒審查). Yang denies any wrongdoing. TRUMP VOWS HEAVY STRIKES ON IRAN AFTER US INTERCEPTS BALLISTIC MISSILE ATTACK ON FORCES IN JORDAN U.S. President Donald Trump has promised heavy strikes on Iran after Iran's Revolutionary Guard fired several ballistic missiles (彈道飛彈) at U.S. military sites in Jordan on Tuesday. All of the missiles were intercepted (攔截). The attack ended a pause in the fighting. It came as U.S. and Saudi fighter jets carried out joint strikes on Iran-linked militia targets in Iraq. Iraq's Popular Mobilisation Forces says at least 20 people were killed. Iran says it does not want the conflict (衝突) to grow, but more countries are now becoming involved. Kate Fisher reports from Washington. Kenya elephants suspected to have been poisoned Wildlife officials in Kenya say 15 elephants may have been poisoned (中毒;被下毒) after eating tomatoes contaminated with cyanide (氰化物). The elephants died over the past month near Amboseli National Park in southern Kenya. Authorities have not said who may be responsible. In the past, some farmers have been suspected of poisoning elephants to protect their crops. The Kenya Wildlife Service says the contamination could also affect livestock (牲畜) in the area. Officials say the toxic substances (有毒物質) found in the elephants do not pose an immediate risk to people. That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
“Well, this might be unwelcome news,” writes Andrew Yang, “but Kamala Harris is telling people in California that she is running for President again.” Yang, an entrepreneur who ran for President in 2020 as a Democrat, says his sources tell him Kamala's team is quietly laying groundwork for her to run in the next election – and why the DNC announcing that South Carolina “would be the first primary state in the 2028 Democratic primary” is a clue. “She showed up to a political event last weekend that was a pretty clear step in that direction,” says Yang. “As you might be able to tell, I think this whole thing is a disaster.” Andrew Yang joins Dr. Drew to discuss the next big Presidential election, AI's impact on jobs, and why he still champions UBI after famously proposing the Freedom Dividend to grant $1,000 per month to every American adult. Dr. Drew and Andrew also speak about their experience after competing together on FOX's new reality show Nation's Dumbest. Attorney Tom Renz returns to speak about a “betrayal” of MAHA after the CDC “gave Pfizer $1.24 billion for mRNA COVID vaccines including jabs for kids.” Dr. Kelly Victory reports on explosive new details from Dr. Anthony Fauci's COVID-19 diaries, recently released by Sen. Rand Paul in advance of Dr. Fauci's congressional hearing on July 29, 2026. 「 SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS 」 • FATTY15 – The future of essential fatty acids is here!

Celebration as Christopher and Natalie hit a milestone most podcasts never reach: episode 150. In this unscripted, no-notes conversation, they pull back the curtain on what it's actually taken to keep Dating Intelligence going — the burnout, the format pivots, the moments they almost quit — and why the real work was never about dating advice, it was about doing the inner work themselves first. They talk candidly about authenticity versus performance, building community that actually sticks, and how personal transformation shows up in everything from relationships to money to how you show up on camera. Then they shift gears entirely: road trip stories, DJ Nani makes an appearance, and a reminder that even people who talk about relationships for a living are still figuring it out in real time.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Sabtu, 25 Juli 2026Bacaan: “Mengucap syukurlah dalam segala hal, sebab itulah yang dikehendaki Allah di dalam Kristus Yesus bagi kamu.” (1 Tesalonika 5:18)Renungan: Keluarga Pak Budi baru aja kena musibah. Usaha kecilnya bangkrut saat menjelang Natal. Tabungan habis untuk membayar utang. Malam itu di meja makan suasananya hening. Anak sulungnya berkata, “Pa, kita masih bisa makan nasi sama telur. Berarti Tuhan masih pelihara kita ya.” Istri Pak Budi menyambung, “Iya. Listrik masih menyala. Rumah masih ada. Kita masih lengkap 4 orang di sini.” Mereka tidak pura-pura bahagia. Tapi malam itu mereka memutuskan untuk berdoa dan mengucap syukur dahulu, sebelum memikirkan jalan keluarnya. Tiga bulan kemudian, pelan-pelan ada pintu berkat baru terbuka. Paulus menulis ayat ini kepada jemaat yang sedang tertekan. Dia tidak berkata, "Bersyukur kalau segala hal baik". Tetapi "bersyukur dalam segala hal". Ada 2 pesa penting dari bacaan tersebut. Pertama, “Mengucap syukurlah dalam segala hal”. Dalam segala hal itu artinya baik suka maupun duka, sehat maupun sakit, berkecukupan maupun berkekurangan. Bersyukur bukan karena situasinya baik-baik saja, tetapi karena Tuhan kita tetap baik. Kedua, “Sebab itulah yang dikehendaki Allah”. Ini bukan saran, tetapi ini adalah kehendak Tuhan. Waktu kita bersyukur, kita sedang taat. Dan ketaatan akan membuka pintu berkat baru dan damai Tuhan. Bersyukur itu bukan menyangkal masalah. Bersyukur itu memilih fokus kepada Tuhan yang memegang masalah itu. Kita gampang bersyukur kalau gaji naik, anak lulus, badan sehat. Tapi bagaimana kalau dalam kerjaan bos tidak menyenangkan, target tidak tercapai, di-PHK? Yang terjadi adalah kita akan gampang mengeluh dan menyalahkan. Bagaimana jika dalam keluarga anak susah diatur, pasangan cuek, orang tua sakit? Rasanya capai dan tidak dihargai. Bagaimana juga di dalam iman? Doa udah lama tidak dijawab. Melihat orang lain diberkati, kita pun bertanya, "Tuhan, Engkau di mana?". 1 Tesalonika 5:18 mengajak kita memasang "kacamata bersyukur" tiap hari. Bukan bersyukur karena masalahnya, tapi bersyukur bahwa di tengah masalah Tuhan masih ada, Tuhan masih mengasihi, Tuhan masih bekerja. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, ampunilah aku kalau sering mengeluh dan lupa bersyukur. Hari ini aku mau taat pada firman-Mu. Aku mengucap syukur dalam segala hal, karena Engkau tetap baik. Ajarilah aku melihat kebaikan-Mu bahkan di tengah kesulitan dan isi hatiku dengan ucapan syukur. Amin. (Dod).
Why Your Subconscious Keeps You Stuck: Dr. Lise Janelle on the Heart Freedom Method Episode Description What if the thing holding you back is not a lack of discipline, willpower, knowledge, or effort? In this episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier talks with Dr. Lise Janelle, a former chiropractor, peak performance coach, author, speaker, and creator of the Heart Freedom Method. Dr. Lise explains how subconscious beliefs can shape performance, relationships, business, money, health, and the way people respond to challenges. She shares why someone can consciously want success, love, healing, or growth while another part of them quietly associates that goal with danger, rejection, conflict, or loss. Through stories from athletes, entrepreneurs, relationships, and her own life, Dr. Lise shows how old childhood interpretations can become adult patterns. A skier who subconsciously associated winning with hurting others. A successful woman whose body reacted when she felt unheard. A chiropractor who feared success might threaten her marriage. These examples all point to the same deeper question: what story is your subconscious trying to protect you from? Stephanie and Dr. Lise also talk about self-sabotage, procrastination, victim patterns, worthiness, yin and yang, relationships, nervous system reactions, the difference between forcing and flowing, and why challenges may be guiding us toward growth. This is a conversation about getting unstuck, listening to the heart, and learning how to work with the subconscious mind instead of fighting against it. This episode is for education and reflection only. It is not a substitute for medical care, mental health care, trauma therapy, relationship counseling, or individualized professional support.

DRWarner Bros.' Zaslav Offers $68 Million to Buy Summer Campnew January 2026 employment agreement$96M: Make-Whole RSU award to CEO Daivd Zaslav of 1,963,465 shares; after January 2 Follow-On Option award of 3,052,734 options because share price is downUnder a new employment agreement executed on June 12, 2025, Zaslav received a special award of 20,898,776 stock options with an exercise price of $10.16 (~$400M). Additionally, on January 2, 2026, he was granted 3,052,734 follow-on stock options with an exercise price of $28.51 (~$40M). To address the higher exercise price of these options compared to the initial grant, Zaslav received 1,963,465 restricted stock units on January 5, 2026 (~$56M).The Compensation Committee: 23 meetings in 2025*Paul A. Gould, 80, 18 years tenureGould and Zaslav worked closely together at Discovery, Inc. for nearly 15 years.David Zaslav took the helm as President and CEO of Discovery, Inc. in January 2007.Paul Gould joined the Discovery, Inc. Board of Directors shortly after, serving as an independent director from 2007 until the company merged with WarnerMedia.Both men belong to the tight-knit professional circle surrounding cable pioneer and billionaire John Malone.Paul Gould has a long history as a trusted director across Malone's web of companies, serving for years on the boards of Liberty Global and Liberty Latin America.David Zaslav has publicly and frequently cited John Malone as his primary professional mentor.Their shared ties to Malone are so closely linked that in 2012, Zaslav partnered with other high-level executives to donate $1 million to the Cable Center specifically to build and name the John Malone Theater.Paul Gould has served as a Managing Director and Executive Vice President at Allen & Company, a premium boutique investment bank deeply embedded in the media and entertainment ecosystem. Through this avenue, Gould and Zaslav connect in two ways:Financial Advisory: Allen & Company has a long history of providing valuation opinions, advisory services, and market analysis for major transactions initiated by Zaslav during his career.The Sun Valley Conference: Allen & Company famously hosts the annual "Summer Camp for Billionaires" in Sun Valley, Idaho. As a prominent media mogul, Zaslav is a regular, high-profile attendee at this event, which is organized by Gould's firm.Kenneth W. LoweKen Lowe is the former Chair/CEO of Scripps Networks Interactive (the former parent company of massive lifestyle brands like HGTV, Food Network, and ID).The Link: In 2018—four years before the Warner Bros. deal even closed—Zaslav orchestrated Discovery's $14.6 billion acquisition of Scripps Networks. As a direct result of that blockbuster cable industry consolidation, Lowe joined Discovery Inc.'s board of directors. He and Zaslav had already been working together closely at the board level for years before the legacy company expanded into WBD.The board of AT&TRichard W. FisherOutside of WBD, Zaslav's connection to Fisher is rooted in Fisher's previous role as a member of the Board of Directors for AT&T. When Zaslav was hammering out the complex transaction to spin WarnerMedia away from AT&T, Fisher was one of the crucial board leaders on the other side of the table who evaluated and signed off on the deal. As part of the closing agreement, Fisher was designated by AT&T to transition directly over to the new WBD board.Debra L. LeeDebra Lee was the longtime Chair/CEO of BET Networks (Black Entertainment Television) from 2006 to 2018.Zaslav and Lee have long-standing commitments to The Paley Center for Media, sharing space as members of its highly prestigious Board of Trustees. Additionally, Lee served on the board of AT&T, meaning she was part of the corporate governance team that initially approved Zaslav's pitch to merge Discovery with WarnerMedia.Geoffrey Y. YangJust like Richard Fisher and Debra Lee, Yang's primary pre-WBD connection to Zaslav comes down to AT&T. Yang sat on AT&T's board during the high-stakes dealmaking window. Because of his background in digital media and venture capital, he was designated by AT&T leadership to transition to the WBD board to help Zaslav steer the newly formed company's streaming and direct-to-consumer technology strategies.The board that ignores Say on Pay votesAt our 2025 Annual Meeting held on June 2, 2025, we held an advisory vote on executive compensation, or "Say on Pay" vote, and a majority of the votes cast by stockholders were cast against our executive compensation program.Our executive compensation program is designed to pay for performance and effectively balance executive and stockholder interests. The Committee considered the outcome of the "Say on Pay" vote from the 2025 Annual Meeting, and while it continues to believe that our executive compensation structure, which includes long-term agreements with each of our NEOs and delivers a significant majority of NEO compensation in performance-based vehicles, is effective in meeting our compensation objectives, it took note of the negative 2025 "Say on Pay" vote when making compensation decisions after the 2025 Annual Meeting.The Dodd-Frank Act: "The shareholder vote … shall not be binding on the issuer or the board of directors of an issuer, and may not be construed as overruling a decision by such issuer or board of directors”Special meeting vote 4/23/26: Say on Pay 83% no6/9 AGM: ShareholdersPaul A.

LoweGeoffrey Y. YangZaslavThe SEC: "The Say-on-Pay … votes are advisory rather than binding ... Unlike a binding vote, advisory votes do not require the company or its board of directors to take a specific action. The company's board of directors may consider advisory votes and may follow up with other communications or dialogue with shareholders as part of its deliberative process in making policy decisions."The workers for being poor1,378 to 1 CEO pay ratio.Andrew M.

Is it the path to the next financial collapse?Jon Ossoff Rips RFK Jr.'s ‘Foolish' Cutback To Cyclosporiasis Monitoring: Sen. Jon Ossoff says a cyclosporiasis outbreak spreading nationwide could be harder to track because the Trump administration changed CDC surveillance last year. In a letter to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Ossoff argues that the CDC's FoodNet program (a public health network that monitors infections from multiple pathogens across CDC, USDA, FDA, and 10 states) stopped requiring monitoring cyclospora, and that the administration later made data collection optional at FoodNet sites for most pathogens (except Salmonella and E. coli).Elon Musk"ESG is the devil"A "scam" weaponized by "phony social justice warriors"Vivek RamaswamyThe author of Woke, Inc.founded an entire asset management firm (Strive) designed explicitly to offer "anti-woke" investment options that ignore ESG metrics in favor of pure profit.Ron DeSantisSpearheaded a massive legislative pushback against ESG in Florida, signing bills that banned state and local governments from using ESG factors when investing public funds or issuing bondsArgues ESG is a way to bypass voters and enforce a political agenda through corporate power.Peter ThielCalled ESG a "hate factory" used to control capital and punish companies that don't fall in line with mainstream corporate ideologyTariq Fancy (Former Head of Sustainable Investing at BlackRock)“Whistleblower”Called ESG a "dangerous placebo" that does nothing to actually fix the planet but allows Wall Street to charge higher fees while greenwashing their portfoliosMike PenceArgues that major Wall Street firms use ESG to enforce a radical left-wing agenda on everyday Americans, forcing companies to adopt policies that hurt the domestic energy sector.Glenn Hegar (Texas Comptroller)Created a blacklist of financial companies (including BlackRock) banned from doing business with the state of TexasCalled ESG an "opaque and perverse system" that violates fiduciary dutyAndy Puzder (Former CEO of CKE Restaurants/Hardee's and Carl's Jr.)Argued that forcing companies to focus on social goals instead of profits violates shareholder capitalism and ultimately hurts the economySenator Tom CottonAttacked ESG from a legal and regulatory standpoint.

This episode is different.Coach Alex sits down with San Qing on The Way for a wide-ranging conversation about exercise science, stress adaptation, mitochondria, fasting, performance, belief, martial arts, and what happens when the body is challenged and forced to grow.But this conversation also moves into territory that many Faithful Fitness listeners may not be used to hearing.Daoism.Eastern medicine.Energy language.Breathwork.Alchemy.Spiritual frameworks that do not come from a Christian worldview.That is why this episode needs to be heard with discernment.There are places in this conversation where Coach Alex and San Qing find common ground. Stress matters. Adaptation matters. Belief matters. Movement matters. The body and mind are deeply connected. The human body is fearfully and wonderfully complex.But there are also places where the worldviews are very different.As Christians, we do not listen to conversations like this with fear or arrogance. We listen with wisdom. We test what we hear. We recognize what is true, reject what is false, and bring every thought captive to Christ.Because Jesus is not one spiritual option among many.He is the way, the truth, and the life.In this episode, Coach Alex brings exercise science and Christian stewardship into a conversation outside the walls of the church. He discusses his work with Everyday Spy, the role of adaptive stress, why movement forces belief into action, how mitochondria respond to challenge, why “1% better” matters, and why the body cannot be separated from the life of faith.Listen carefully.Listen prayerfully.And ask yourself:Where have I absorbed spiritual ideas from the culture around me without testing them against Scripture?The body matters.The mind matters.Belief matters.But Christ is Lord over all of it.Timestamps00:00 – Belief, Genetics, and Performance00:35 – San Qing's Bodybuilding Journey and Daoist Framework04:21 – Coach Alex Reframes Fitness Around DNA and Stewardship06:44 – Myostatin, Genetics, and Natural Muscle Growth07:40 – Everyday Spy, Mission Readiness, and Recovery09:13 – Less Is More: Acute Stress vs. Chronic Stress12:06 – Adaptive Stressors and Epigenetic Potential12:54 – Which Cardio Is Best?

Julukannya Sang Komandan Korea, ia naik jabatan tapi kehilangan arena. Seperti dipenjara tetapi dalam konteks politik. Yang menarik bukan nasibnya, melainkan cara dia melawan nasib itu.
Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Kamis, 16 Juli 2026Bacaan: "Setelah selesai berbicara, Ia berkata kepada Simon: "Bertolaklah ke tempat yang dalam dan tebarkanlah jalamu untuk menangkap ikan." (Lukas 5:4)Renungan: Waktu kecil Thomas Alfa Edison pernah dikeluarkan dari sekolah karena dianggap "terlalu bodoh". Gurunya berkata dia tidak bisa belajar. Waktu meneliti bola lampu, dia gagal ribuan kali. Wartawan bertanya: "Pak, bagaimana rasanya gagal ribuan kali?" Edison jawab: "Saya tidak gagal ribuan kali. Saya hanya menemukan ribuan cara yang tidak berhasil." Dia "bertolak ke tempat yang dalam" - terus mencoba walau semua orang berkata mustahil. Dari kegagalan itu lahirlah lampu pijar yang sampai hari ini menerangi dunia. Yang orang lihat gelap, tapi dia taat "menebar jala" terus, sampai akhirnya terang itu datang. Waktu itu Petrus sudah semalaman mencari ikan hasilnya mengecewakan. Ia capai, malu dan mau menyerah. Tetapi Yesus datang dan berkata, "Bertolaklah ke tempat yang dalam". Bertolak artinya bergerak. Jangan diam dalam kekecewaan. Tetap taat walau tidak masuk akal. Ke tempat yang dalam artinya menuju ke tempat yang berisiko, yang mungkin mustahil menurut manusia. Di sanalah mujizat akan terjadi. Tebarkanlah jalamu, artinya lakukan bagian kita dengan usaha dan iman, maka Tuhan akan melakukan bagian-Nya juga. Yesus tidak menyuruh Petrus kerja lebih keras. Dia menyuruh Petrus taat di tempat yang benar bersama Dia. Kita sering seperti Petrus yang "semalaman tidak mendapat apa-apa." Dalam pelayanan kita sudah mewartakan Injil dan mendoakan orang, tapi tidak ada yang berubah. Akhirnya godaan datang yaitu perkataan, "Sudahlah, capek." Di dalam keluarga kita sudah menasihati anak, sudah berdoa untuk pasangan, tapi ternyata situasinya sama tidak berubah. Maka godaan adalah perkataan, "Percuma." Di dalam kehidupan ini kita sudah mengirim lamaran, sudah berusaha, tapi pintu berkat tetap tertutup. Akhirnya kecewa dan godaannya adalah kata-kata pasrah karena kecewa, "Mungkin bukan jalanku." Yesus hari ini berkata kepada kita juga, "Bertolaklah ke tempat yang dalam." Mungkin "tempat yang dalam" itu adalah: tetap mengasihi musuh, tetap jujur walau rugi, tetap memuji walau hati sakit, tetap percaya walau doa belum dijawab. Di tempat dangkal kita hanya dapat ikan kecil. Tapi di kedalaman bersama Yesus, ada berkat yang bisa "mengoyakkan jala". Jangan berhenti sebelum Yesus berkata berhenti. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, aku sering menyerah terlalu cepat. Hari ini aku mendengar suara-Mu, "Bertolaklah ke tempat yang dalam." Berikan aku keberanian untuk taat, bahkan saat tidak mengerti. Tolonglah aku agar mau menebar jala lagi bersama-Mu. Aku percaya Engkau sanggup mengubah kegagalanku menjadi kesuksesan. Amin. (Dod).
Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Rabu, 15 Juli 2026Bacaan: "Kita tahu sekarang, bahwa Allah turut bekerja dalam segala sesuatu untuk mendatangkan kebaikan bagi mereka yang mengasihi Dia, yaitu bagi mereka yang terpanggil sesuai dengan rencana Allah." (Roma 8:28) Renungan: Nick Vujicic lahir tanpa tangan dan tanpa kaki. Waktu kecil dia sering dibully di sekolah. Dia sempat bertanya, "Tuhan, mengapa Engkau membuat aku seperti ini? Hidupku untuk apa? Pada umur 10 tahun dia mau bunuh diri. Tapi dia sadar dan mulai berpikir, "Kalau Tuhan bisa pakai segala sesuatu, berarti Dia juga bisa pakai tubuhku yang seperti ini." Nick kemudian belajar berenang, main bola, mengetik dengan jari kaki. Pelan-pelan dia mulai bicara di depan orang. Awalnya cuma 10 orang. Lalu 100, lalu ribuan orang. Sekarang Nick sudah keliling kepuluhan negara, menginspirasi jutaan orang. Dia berkata, "Saya tidak punya tangan untuk memeluk orang, tapi saya punya mulut untuk memberitahu mereka bahwa Tuhan mengasihi mereka." Yang tadinya dia menganggap dirinya sebagai kutukan, Tuhan ubah menjadi alat untuk mendatangkan kebaikan bagi banyak orang. "Allah turut bekerja dalam segala sesuatu" artinya tidak ada kejadian yang kebetulan. Yang manis dan yang pahit, yang gagal dan yang berhasil, semua ada dalam tangan Tuhan untuk mendatangkan kebaikan. Tuhan tidak mengatakan semua hal itu baik. Tapi Dia berjanji bisa mengubahnya menjadi lebih baik. Tuhan itu seperti seorang pelukis. Kita melihat coretan dari dekat. Tapi Tuhan sedang melukis gambar besar yang indah dari surga. Kita tidak perlu menunggu hidup menjadi "sempurna" dulu baru dipakai Tuhan. Mulai hari ini, bawalah semua kekurangan kita kepada Tuhan dan katakan pada-Nya, "Tuhan Engkau mau apa untuk hidupku ini? Aku siap untuk melakukan kehendak-Mu." Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, ampunilah aku yang sering bertanya "kenapa aku" saat ada masalah. Hari ini aku percaya bahwa Engkau turut bekerja dalam segala sesuatu untuk mendatangkan kebaikan bagiku. Pakailah hidupku, kekuranganku, bahkan lukaku, untuk menjadi berkat bagi orang lain. Aku mau mengasihi-Mu dan percaya pada indahnya rencana-Mu. Amin. (Dod).
Join us as we discuss research on mental health and wellbeing in the surgical workforce with Drs. Yang and Collins. The episode explores key findings from recent national surveys showing that nearly one in seven surgeons report suicidal ideation in the past year, with depression, anxiety, and PTSD affecting 15–20% of the surgical population. The conversation highlights protective factors—professional fulfillment, resilience, self-valuation, and connection—while distinguishing between healthy resilience and normalized suffering. Dr. Yang and Dr. Collins discuss systemic barriers including time constraints, out-of-pocket mental health costs, and persistent stigma, alongside actionable institutional interventions: protecting dedicated wellbeing time, establishing peer support and psychological first aid programs, ensuring free mental health access, and expanding research to understand what helps surgeons thrive. The episode emphasizes that self-care is essential to patient safety and invites listeners to become advocates, engage with the literature, and help drive culture change within their institutions.

Dvorak on Twitter Follow Andrew Horowitz on Twitter Warm-Up - JOBS Number - Odd Move - Saylor is selling Bitcoin! - VEGGIE ALERT! - US RESUMES POWERFUL STRIKES ON IRAN (Is this still a ceasefire?) Markets - Starting off July on a Wobble - SpaceX added to NAZ100 - Oil prices drifting lower - Gas at the pump? - Oracle - Canary? World Cup? - USA is out... (Bad goalie move last night) IRAN - Looks like war is back on - at least for tonight - Oil rises about 3% on the news - US revokes Iran's ability to sell oil around the world - Markets don't seem overly concerned - VIX still low at 16 - Odds that this will be more than a quick in and out? --- Could it be that Iran was waiting until after the Funeral? JOBS COOL, FED STILL HOT - June payrolls came in at +57,000, well under the +110,000 estimate. - April and May were revised down by a combined 74,000 jobs. - Unemployment slipped to 4.2%, but not for the best reason: the labor force shrank by 720,000 people. - Labor-force participation fell to 61.5%, the lowest in more than five years. - Leisure and hospitality lost 61,000 jobs, a notable hit to the consumer-service economy. - Average hourly earnings rose $0.13 in June. - Fed setup: weaker hiring argues for patience, but inflation is still above target, so the market is back to parsing every Fed sentence. - - Fed Funds Futures Now only ONE Raise by Year-End DOW RECORD, NASDAQ WOBBLE - The Dow closed at a record 52,900.07 after the soft jobs report cooled near-term rate-hike fear. - S&P 500 finished roughly flat. - Nasdaq fell about 0.8% as chip stocks dragged the tape lower. - The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index dropped more than 5% on July 2. - Apple rose nearly 5% on iPhone launch optimism. - Nvidia and other AI/chip names stayed volatile after a huge first-half run. - Goldman client data showed hedge funds dumped tech hardware and semiconductor exposure for a fourth straight week. - The issue is not "AI is dead"; the issue is when all the AI capex turns into visible returns. TESLA BEATS DELIVERIES, STOCK STILL GETS HIT - Tesla delivered 480,126 vehicles in Q2, a record quarter and above Wall Street expectations. - Production was 451,758 vehicles. - Model 3/Y made up 467,762 deliveries. - Other models were only 12,364. - Energy storage deployments were 13.5 GWh. - Shares fell about 7.5% after the report, the worst one-day drop in roughly a year. - Pressure points: margin worries, price cuts, demand sustainability, and the market questioning whether the EV story is enough at a very rich valuation. - As of Monday afternoon, TSLA was around $420 with a market cap near $1.49 trillion and a trailing P/E around 385. MORE MUSK - TESLA PUTS AI ON A BUDGET - Tesla reportedly capped employee spending on third-party AI tools at $200 per week starting July 6. - Grok was reportedly exempt from the cap. - Setup: Tesla wants employees using AI, but not running up unlimited outside-token bills. - Cost-control angle: AI is becoming a normal operating expense, not a science project. - Funny part: even at Tesla, the AI bill apparently needs a limiter. NVIDIA SERVER DELAY NOISE - Nvidia shares held up despite reports of delays tied to its next AI server architecture. - SemiAnalysis reportedly said Nvidia's Kyber architecture could slip by up to 12 months into 2028. - Nvidia pushed back and said its development roadmap is unchanged. - Mizuho called the delay report "noise" and said it was not a material issue for the stock. - NOTE: Story is still report-driven, not company-confirmed. ORACLE - CANARY? - Oracle's stock fell 19% this week, the steepest drop since August 2001, the depths of the dot-com bust. - The company's capital expenditures surged 162% in the latest fiscal year, with almost $24 billion in negative free cash flow and $130 billion in debt. - Co-founder Larry Ellison has fallen behind the Google co-founders, Amazon's Jeff Bezos and Michael Dell on the list of the world's richest people. - After the company reached a peak market cap of $900 billion in September, on enthusiasm about Oracle's AI customers, the stock has lost about 55% of its value. - The crux of the problem is that for Oracle to fulfill its AI infrastructure commitment, primarily to OpenAI, it's having to raise record amounts of debt, creating balance sheet risk while focusing on lower-margin offerings. SPACEX ENTERS THE INDEX MACHINE - SpaceX is set to join the Nasdaq-100 on Tuesday after its recent IPO. - The company's valuation is around $2.1 trillion. - Its Nasdaq-100 weight will initially be under 1% because of limited public float. - Index-tracking funds tied to the Nasdaq-100 will need exposure, creating automatic demand. - Key issue: big valuation, small float, forced index buying. - Watch the lockup calendar: index inclusion can create near-term demand, but employee and insider selling later can change the supply picture. - Podcast angle: retail gets "SpaceX exposure" through QQQ, but not necessarily much exposure at first. STRATEGY SELLS BITCOIN TO PAY THE BILLS - Strategy sold 3,588 bitcoin last week for about $216 million. - Proceeds are being used for preferred-stock dividends and dollar reserves. - The company still holds 843,775 bitcoin, valued around $52 billion. - Q2 included an $8.32 billion paper loss tied to bitcoin weakness. - The company's average bitcoin purchase price is around $75,476. - Recent sale prices were around $59,000 to $61,000. - Funny part: the former "never sell" bitcoin treasury poster child is now selling bitcoin to service the capital structure. - Watch for copycats: any company that copied the bitcoin-treasury model may face the same liquidity math if crypto stays weak. MICROSOFT CUTS AGAIN - Microsoft said it will cut about 4,800 jobs. - Shares slipped nearly 1%. - Job cuts landed while investors are still rewarding AI spending. - The message? spend heavy on AI, cut elsewhere. --- Yes, AI is killing jobs... SERVICES HOLD AT 54 - ISM non-manufacturing PMI came in at 54.0. - Result matched expectations. - Reading above 50 means services activity is still expanding. - Market took it as firm enough for growth, not hot enough to force an immediate Fed move. EARNINGS SEASON STARTER - Delta and PepsiCo report this week. - Levi Strauss also reports this week. - Delta is the read on travel, premium demand, fuel, and consumer resilience. - PepsiCo is the read on snack pricing, volume, and lower-income consumer pressure. - Q2 earnings bar is high after the market's strong second-quarter rally. OIL BACK TO PRE-IRAN WAR LEVELS - Brent settled around $71.99. - WTI settled around $68.55. - OPEC+ approved another output-target increase for August, adding 188,000 barrels per day. - Since April, planned increases add up to nearly 800,000 barrels per day. - Crude exports through the Strait of Hormuz are recovering, taking some geopolitical premium out of the market. - Saudi Arabia cut official selling prices, another sign the market is shifting from shortage panic to buyer resistance. - Good for headline inflation if it sticks; bad for energy bulls who were pricing war-premium oil. SPR DRAWDOWN - U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve fell by 6.2 million barrels. - SPR level is now 319.5 million barrels. - That is the lowest level since April 1983. - Drawdown comes while oil prices are easing and OPEC+ is adding supply. - Energy setup: lower crude helps inflation, but reserve levels are historically thin. MORE OIL - CHINA BUYS THE DIP - China stepped up Middle East oil purchases as prices fell. - Saudi Arabia cut export prices to Asia to a six-year low. - Brent settled at $71.99. - WTI settled at $68.55. - OPEC+ approved another August production increase of 188,000 barrels per day. - Planned OPEC+ supply increases since April now total nearly 800,000 barrels per day. - Lower oil supports disinflation but raises questions about global demand.

CHINA NOT MESSING AROUND - A Chinese court handed a rare death sentence to a former official on corruption charges, in a severe punishment underscoring the intensity of President Xi Jinping's anti-graft crackdown. - Yang Youlin, a former vice director of an economic zone in the eastern city of Nanjing, was sentenced to death on Monday for taking more than 2.21 billion yuan ($325 million) of bribes between 2013 and 2023, according to the state broadcaster China Central Television. - Yang was found guilty also of embezzlement, abuse of power and money laundering. His crimes were “exceptionally grave” and caused massive losses, warranting the capital sentence, CCTV reported, citing the Changzhou Intermediate People's Court in Jiangsu province. DRONES - Dronemaker AeroVironment reported fourth-quarter earnings that beat on the top and bottom lines. - The company's funded backlog of $1.2 billion was up substantially over last year, but grew only slightly from the $1.1 billion last quarter. - Autonomous systems were a strong point with revenue of $492 million that beat the $402 million StreetAccount expectation.

In this episode of Daughters of the Moon, we sit down with Jennifer Scott LeBlanc to explore what it means when the body begins to speak through pain, shock, and recovery.Jennifer shares her lived experience of healing after a head-on accident and how that journey opened the door to deeper energetic practices including Reiki, Shiatsu, Source Point Energy, and guided acupressure.We explore how trauma can affect the nervous system, and how intentional, gentle modalities can help regulate, calm, and restore balance. Jennifer also discusses Yin and Yang organ systems and how Traditional Chinese Medicine views emotional and physical health as interconnected.This conversation invites us to listen more deeply to the body's intelligence and to consider healing as a layered process of energy, awareness, and reconnection.Connect with Jennifer Scott LeBlancWebsite: https://www.yourbalance.netInstagram: @yourbalance_net and @sacredshiftwellnessretreatFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jenniferleblanc.caConnect with Daughters of the MoonWebsite: https://daughtersofthemoon.caYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DaughtersoftheMoonFacebook: http://facebook.com/DaughtersoftheMoon444Instagram: http://instagram.com/daughtersofthemoonpodcastLand AcknowledgementWe acknowledge that this conversation takes place on the traditional territories of the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples across what is now known as Canada.We honour the land, waters, and skies, and recognize the ongoing presence, wisdom, and stewardship of Indigenous Peoples past, present, and future.DisclaimerThis episode is for educational and informational purposes only.

从2025年1月第一次踏足福建,到今年再访福州,我们可算是个有“福”之人了。我们走过了泉州、漳州、厦门、长乐……看了一些新奇的景色,吃了很多好吃的,拜访了几位朋友,更是——不可饶恕啊——YANG 竟然在这里沾染上了茶瘾。听听吧。「壮游者」十一假期旅行团已成团,尚有少数几个位置。这一次,我们要一起从贝尔格莱德到萨拉热窝,完成一场记忆与与山野的巴尔干之旅。时间是2026年9月28日-10月5日,在线路上,我们选择了塞尔维亚和波黑两个最具代表的国家,脚步将从多瑙河到德里纳河、从城市到村庄,去触碰复杂的南斯拉夫记忆,也去欣赏奥斯曼帝国留下的遗迹与观察当地人民的生活。我们会去到博物馆、去历史发生的地方、去农夫市场、去学当地人喝咖啡,也会在山脊上徒步,走到波黑海拔最高的传统村落里去。整个行程不赶路,不猎奇,更不拼网红照——这就是这条线路的目的:看看历史在这里留下了什么,以及这里的人们又在如何前行。咨询或报名,请联系zhuangyouzhe2018(微信),线路详情请阅读公众号“壮游者”的相关推送。期待和你一起去探索世界。
Tim and Steve explore the balance between control and delegation, drawing on lessons from business ownership, martial arts, and motorcycle riding. They discuss why trust is essential to effective leadership, how fear often fuels the need to control everything, and why letting go can actually make you a stronger leader. Discover the difference between leading everything and leading well — and why great leaders know when to step forward and when to empower others to take the lead. Quote Worth Remembering "Leadership isn't about having your hands on everything. It's about knowing when to take the wheel — and when to trust someone else to drive." Episode Highlights The hidden cost of micromanagement Fear often sits behind our need for control Letting go of control doesn't mean losing influence Why trust is one of the most valuable leadership skills Strong leaders know when to lead — and when to follow How delegation creates growth for both leaders and their teams The motorcycle group ride analogy and what it teaches about teamwork Understanding the Yin and Yang of leadership: when to push and when to pull back Key Takeaways ✅ Focus on what you can control ✅ Micromanagement limits growth ✅ Trust capable people to do their job ✅ Leadership requires humility and self-awareness ✅ Fear creates control, and confidence creates trust ✅ Great teams thrive when everyone knows their role ✅ Sometimes the best leadership move is stepping aside
Author Tessa Yang describes her The Jellyfish Problem protagonist as an "introverted, know-it-all dork." In the novel, Jo, a marine biologist, gets a call from her unrequited college crush, Nadia, who has a request. Nadia lives on a remote island, where they're having a problem with a giant creature. Can Jo help? In today's episode, Yang speaks with NPR's Elissa Nadworny about similarities between Jo and the story's central monster – and whether this book makes a good beach read.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedaySee pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

本期是“巴尔干”系列的第3期,也是最后一期。我们继续跟随樊老师去其他几个巴尔干国家。第一站是克罗地亚,看看这个一心往欧洲靠拢的国家,怎么面对自己那些历史记忆。然后再去阿尔巴尼亚,那个曾经把自己封在地堡里的国家,看看它是怎么从霍查时代的封闭里一步步走出来的。中间我们还会路过罗马尼亚,齐奥塞斯库留下的那个巨型建筑,真的能反映一个疯狂的时代;还有左岸共和国,一个没有被世界完全承认的平行空间。最后回到斯洛文尼亚,看看这个前南国家里最像西欧的地方,是怎么拼命想甩掉“巴尔干”这个标签的。特别提醒:由“壮游者”发起,樊北溟(樊老师)策划的十一定制旅行线路《从贝尔格莱德到萨拉热窝,一场记忆与山野的巴尔干之旅》即将在端午节后发布,定制线路从城市到乡村、从农夫市场到博物馆、从历史发生之地到山脊上的徒步,目的是让旅行者不只是抵达,而是去理解这块土地。咨询及预定请联系微信:zhuangyouzhe2018。故事节点02:43 克罗地亚:入欧盟、纸质票和中转站12:57 博物馆:心碎、醉酒和红色记忆 22:48 杜布罗夫尼克的哀伤28:16 阿尔巴尼亚:霍查、地堡和贫穷43:24 罗马尼亚:文化宫和长眼睛的屋顶49:36 左岸共和国52:50 斯洛文尼亚:精神意大利人59:56 龙01:01:40 迟到的暂住证壮游者樊北溟:前深圳某高中语文教师,写作者、读行侠,文章散见同名公众号及《读者》杂志。主播Yang:仍记得王仕鹏绝杀斯洛文尼亚那一刻的男子。壮游者是一档独立播客,很需要你的支持。1、商务合作请邮件至zhuangyouzhe@126.com,或者添加微信“zhuangyouzhe2018”2、请通过ZFB账号zhuangyouzhe@126.com对“壮游者”进行赞助;也可通过微信公众号“壮游者”文章(本期相关细节图片也在文章里呈现)下方的“喜欢作者”以及节目下方的“赞赏”对单期节目进行赞助。3、请订阅、转发、评论和点赞节目,并在你使用的收听平台为“壮游者”专辑打五星好评。加听友群可微信添加"zhuangyouzhe2018",与主播和听友直接交流。谢谢你,让我们有机会一起前行。
