He warns that such people compensate for their "inner weakness" by becoming overly bossy. This also happens in the Industrial workforce. With an inexperienced person placed into a position of power and authority, power quickly goes to his head and leadership skills are lost. A "How to Become a Good Supervisor" seminar focuses on transitioning from individual contributor to leader by mastering communication, conflict resolution, and performance management. Key topics include active listening, setting clear expectations, delivering constructive feedback, and building team trust. These seminars, often available via SkillPath, AMA, or online modules, emphasize practical tools to boost team morale and productivity. The guy who really wants the job is the guy who should never be promoted, it'll go to his head.
Talking to Gloria.tv, Bishop Athanasius Schneider asks Pope Leo XIV to permit the episcopal consecrations of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. Since Leo XIV continually calls for peace in the world, the bishop argues that he should also foster peace within the Church. If he cannot make peace with the faithful and clergy of the FSSPX — Catholics who love and pray for the Pope — then his appeals for peace will lose credibility. Bishop Schneider therefore recommends that the Pope allow the consecrations as a gesture of reconciliation and to build bridges with the FSSPX, with whom he should continue discussions towards a lasting solution.
Ausschnitt aus diesem Video: "Wenn der Papst in der Welt zum Frieden aufruft, sollte er auch innerhalb der Kirche Frieden stiften. Eine Erlaubnis der Bischofsweihen wäre ein seelsorgliches Zeichen des Dialogs und der Versöhnung mit der Piusbruderschaft – als Brücke zu weiterer Klärung und Einheit."

The rules are simple: they lie to us, we know they’re lying, they know we know they’re lying, but they keep lying to us, and we keep pretending to believe them. Elena Gorochowa, The Mountain of Crumbs Some attribute this sentence to Alexander Solzhenitsyn. It is difficult to arrive at the truth through it, especially when one wants to describe that truth. We know they’re lying. They know they’re lying. We know that they know we know they’re lying. And yet they keep on lying. Alexander Solzhenitsyn. Who is moved by the “truth” that the President of the United States proclaims on TruthSocial or during exchanges with journalists? The Donald Trump Bridge, which the U.S. president just unveiled on truthsocial.com. The disconnect between reality and narrative clearly made an impression on Orwell, who worried that “the very concept of objective truth is fading out of the world.” The theme of falsified history and the destruction of truth would …

"78. ‘I desire also that the holy doctors acquire for themselves much grace, light and glory by their earnest, laudable and sacred study, and that the truth be more and more clearly detected and purified, and be traced to its source. By humbly investigating the mysteries and the admirable works of my right hand, they come to be partakers of them and of the bread of the understanding, the holy Scriptures (Eccli. 15, 3). I have especially shown my Providence in regard to doctors and teachers, although their opinions and doubts have been so diverse and for such different ends. Sometimes, for my greater glory and honor, sometimes for earthly purposes, they are permitted to dispute, and to contradict each other; and there is a great inequality in the manner in which they have proceeded and do proceed to show their emulation and earnestness."
[Mary of Agreda – XVII Century AD; Agreda, Spain/ Agreda, Spain; ‘Lady in Blue’; Abess; Writer; Mystic] “Chapter VI, part II ~ CONCERNING A DOUBT, WHICH I PROPOSED REGARDING THE DOCTRINE CONTAINED IN THESE CHAPTERS, AND THE ANSWER TO IT. 75. ‘The existence of different opinions regarding these sacraments and other mysteries in the Church, arises from the fact that I manifest and give light concerning one set of mysteries to some teachers, and illumine others concerning other mysteries; for mortals are not capable of receiving all the light. It is not expedient, that the knowledge of all things be given to one man, as long as men are viators. For also in the state of comprehensors, they obtain them in parts and according to the state and the merits of each. But the plenitude of all gifts is due only to the humanity of my Only-begotten and to his Mother in proper proportion. The other mortals receive it neither entirely, nor is it always given so clearly, as to assure them altogether.…Ebisinga
American Space Museum & Space Walk of Fame STARLINK DECLARES WAR ON COMETS: from www.spaceweather.com Earlier this year, the number of Starlink satellites in Earth orbit surpassed 10,000. You can see the evidence in the sky: Dan Bush took this picture before sunrise on April 16th from Albany, Missouri. It's supposed to be a picture of Comet PanSTARRS (C/2025 R3), but it contains far more satellites than comets--more than 35 Starlinks in the full-frame photo. "The 'Starlink Zone of Maximum Reflection' appeared right in front of the comet," says Bush. "Stacking 30-second exposures helped alleviate the satellites, but they're still there." Bush's photo is no fluke. In the past year, the number of comet photos criss-crossed by satellites submitted to our gallery has jumped more than 10-fold. The actual counts are certainly greater. Many astrophotographers use software to remove the streaks (e.g., StarXTerminator and Cosmic Clarity), then submit the scrubbed photos without mentioning that …Ebisinga
