Camus @newstart_2024 “ADHD is not a disorder of not knowing what to do. It’s a disorder of not doing what you already know.” Dr. Russell Barkley just delivered one of the clearest explanations of ADHD I’ve ever heard. He says the brain can be split in two: the back part acquires knowledge, the front part (the executive system) uses it. ADHD acts like a meat cleaver that severs the two. You already have the skills and information other people your age have. You just can’t apply them when it counts. That’s why life becomes an endless series of last-minute crises. You’re time-blind — you can only deal with what’s right in front of you. The further away a goal or deadline is, the less real it feels. The solution isn’t teaching more skills. It’s changing the environment at the exact point where the problem occurs — the “point of performance.” It’s a game-changing way to understand why traditional approaches often fail.
Pope Leo remembers St Augustine in his first address on African soil | Shalom World News Commencing his historic African trip with a visit to the Maqam Echahid Martyrs’ Monument in Algiers, which commemorates the Algerian War of Independence, Pope Leo specially remembered Saint Augustine, the great son of Algeria and the celebrated doctor of the Church. Praising the people of Algeria who have lived through a painful history marked with violence and endured all challenges with the nobility of spirit, courage and integrity, the pope lauded the rich legacy of the nation. He also recalled his previous visits to the country of St Augustine as a member of the Augustinian Order and expressed his grateful joy in visiting again as the Successor of the Apostle Peter.
Papst Leo XIV. feiert historische Messe in verregneter Basilika von Algier Der Besuch hat eine starke symbolische Bedeutung: In Algerien leben nur rund 9.000 Katholikinnen und Katholiken, überwiegend aus dem Ausland. Die Basilika gilt seit Langem als Ort der Begegnung der Religionen und zieht regelmäßig auch muslimische Gläubige an. Leo knüpfte seine Botschaft an den heiligen Augustinus an, der in der Region geboren wurde und für den augustinischen Orden eine prägende Gestalt ist. Am Dienstag, den 15. April, reist der Papst weiter nach Annaba, das frühere Hippo, wo Augustinus fast 30 Jahre wirkte. Der Vatikan sieht in der Reise ein Zeichen für die wachsende Bedeutung Afrikas in der Weltkirche.
Pope Leo honours saint in Algeria who decried wars ANNABA, Algeria, April 14 (Reuters) - Pope Leo paid homage to his spiritual roots on Tuesday, travelling to the ancient birthplace in Algeria of St. Augustine of Hippo, who inspired him to become a priest. Augustine, who died in the year 430, said wars should only be waged in order to defend against aggression or protect the innocent, with the intention of restoring a state of peace and never out of a desire for cruelty. Those criteria, with updates, remain Catholic doctrine. They have been invoked by some critics of the Iran war to argue that the conflict, started by surprise U.S.-Israeli airstrikes against Iran on February 28, is unjust. Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy is among those critics. He said on Sunday that the war was "morally illegitimate", citing Augustine's principles. Leo, who is on an ambitious, 10-day tour of four African countries... He did not offer remarks on Tuesday as he visited the remnants of the city …เพิ่มเติม

Leo XIV's current visit to Algeria is (also) personal. In 2004, while serving as Father Prevost, he participated in a pilgrimage to mark the 1650th anniversary of Saint Augustine’s birth, reports IlGiornale.it on 13 April. Then, due to security concerns, the group had been heavily escorted by police and had been restricted to a brief visit to Annaba (ancient Hippo). No broader travel inside Algeria was considered safe at the time. They were strongly advised not to spend the night in Algeria, which is why they returned to Tunisia the same day. Fr Prevost was dressed entirely in civilian clothes, as usual. Returning now as Pope, he revisits those same places. Picture: Conversation Nico Spuntoni, #newsJsaejrgunk
Blessed Anna Katharina Emmerick: Saint Lydwina of Schiedam - (Feast Day: April 14) [Life of Blessed Anna Katharina Emmerick: Vol. 1, pp.149-154] Liduina Lidwid Lidwina Lijdwine Ludivine Lydwid Lidwyna Lydwine Memorial 14 April Profile Her father was a poor noble, and her mother a poor commoner. Lydwina early evinced a devotion of Our Lady of Schiedam. Injured in an ice-skating accident at age 16, the broken rib caused gangrene to set in, and Lydwina became paralyzed and suffered for decades. She spent her time praying, meditating, and offering her pain to God. She developed a devotion to the Eucharist. Given to ecstatic visions in which she was shown Heaven and Purgatory, participated in Christ’s Passion, and was visited by saints. Legend says that she had the gift of inedia, and that her only food for her last 19 years was the Eucharist. Miracles occurred at her bed side. Sometimes accused of being possessed, she was tested by priests. Blind her last seven years. Her …เพิ่มเติม
Ambiences, Customs, Civilizations by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Old magazines are often very charming. This is true even when what comes down to us are only loose undated pages that give us glimpses of the remote past. A Paris journal of the last century, L ‘Illustration, carried an article, “Customs of the Café Valois,” written by A. de Belloy, whose memory has been whisked away by time. What is the date of these pages? The article gives us only the most vague elements as to the answer. It is safe to place them somewhere in the 1860’s. In any case they have the merit of evoking certain values of the social conduct of old. Values that disappeared more and more as large cities came into being in the last century, and of which, not even vestiges have remained among the general public of today’s Babels of concrete, steel and asphalt. They were precious values that endowed social relationships with human warmth and that stemmed from the fact that the civilization of yesteryear was centered …เพิ่มเติม
Azerbaijani authorities have destroyed Saint Hakob Church in Stepanakert, Nagorno Karabakh, marking another escalation in what observers describe as a systematic campaign against Armenian cultural and spiritual heritage in Artsakh. Saint Hakob Church was a relatively modern but deeply symbolic religious site. Its foundation was laid in September 2005, and construction was completed in early 2007. The church was built with the support of Armenian-American benefactor Nerses Yepremyan in memory of his late son, Hakob Yepremyan.
Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal Israel's conditions for Lebanon leaked and they amount to a partition plan... Diplomatic sources told Al-Modon that Israel wants Lebanon divided into three zones: -Zone 1: An 8km buffer strip in the south. Permanent. No return for displaced -civilians. - Zone 2: Everything south of the Litani River becomes a military operations area where Israel dismantles Hezbollah infrastructure and disarms it completely. Israeli forces leave only when they decide they're finished. - Zone 3: North of the Litani and all remaining Lebanon. The Lebanese Army must fully disarm and dismantle Hezbollah on its own. Israel won't withdraw from anywhere until Beirut proves it's done. In other words, Israel occupies the south indefinitely, controls the middle until satisfied, and holds the north hostage to conditions Lebanon's army almost certainly cannot meet. Hezbollah has been embedded in Lebanese society for 40 years. Demanding the Lebanese Army dismantle it is like demanding someone …เพิ่มเติม
Mehr Patienten fordern „ungeimpftes“ Blut Immer mehr Menschen verlangen bei Transfusionen Blut von Ungeimpften – aus Angst vor Impfstoff-Resten. Eine Studie aus Vanderbilt zeigt: Solche Wünsche verzögern Behandlungen und schaden Patienten. Zwei Fälle wurden deutlich schlimmer, einer erlitt Schock, ein anderer schwere Anämie. Experten warnen: Es gibt keinen Beweis für Risiken durch geimpftes Blut, und eine Unterscheidung ist unmöglich. Gerichtete Spenden von Verwandten erhöhen sogar das Infektionsrisiko. Quelle: More patients demand ‘unvaccinated’ blood, … Kanal folgen: Aktuell360 (Antiilluminaten TV)
